1-1-12 One-Step Wash-In Scheme for Desflurane-Nitrous Oxide Low-Flow Anesthesia: Rapid and Predictable Induction

Background. We propose a 1-1-12 wash-in scheme for desflurane-nitrous oxide (N2O) low-flow anesthesia. The objective of our study was to determine the time to achieve alveolar concentration of desflurane (FAD) at 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6%. Methods. We enrolled 106 patients scheduled for elective surgery...
