Influence of Inhaled Anaesthetics on Rebreathing of Carbon Dioxide When Using an Anaesthesia Gas Reflector (AnaConDa)

May 13, 2015 updated by: Region Skane

The purpose is to investigate how the adsorptive capacity of the active carbon filter to carbon dioxide in an anaesthetic gas reflector (AnaConDa) is affected by adding inhaled anaesthetic agent.

The hypothesis is that addition of inhaled anaesthetic agent will affect the amount of adsorption of carbon dioxide to the active carbon and thereby affect rebreathing of carbon dioxide.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Volume of carbon dioxide rebreathing from an anesthetic gas reflector
Time Frame: 2 hours
Tidal carbon dioxide volume rebreathed from an anesthetic gas reflector correlated to concentration of delivered anesthetic gas.
2 hours

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Quantification of ventilatory requirements to maintain isocapnia with the use of an anesthetic gas reflector.
Time Frame: 2 hours
Changes of tidal volume required to maintain constant alveolar ventilation will be assessed by continuous measurement of exhaled tidal carbon dioxide volume, the latter to be maintained at a constant value.
2 hours
