Desflurane consumption during automated closed-circuit delivery is higher than when a conventional anesthesia machine is used with a simple vaporizer-O(2)-N(2)O fresh gas flow sequence

BACKGROUND: The Zeus(® )(Dräger, Lübeck, Germany), an automated closed-circuit anesthesia machine, uses high fresh gas flows (FGF) to wash-in the circuit and the lungs, and intermittently flushes the system to remove unwanted N(2). We hypothesized this could increase desflurane consumption to such a...
