METHODS: Forty patients scheduled for colorectal surgery (n = 10 for each group) were randomized to receive a fresh gas flow of 250 or 3000 ml.min(-1) with or without HMEs. Anesthesia was maintained by adjusting the inspired concentration of 6% desflurane. Absolute moisture and temperature of inspired gases were measured as the baseline value first at 5 min after tracheal intubation, and then at 10, 20, 45, 60, 90, and 120 min after the induction of anesthesia. RESULTS: At 120 min, the inspiratory humidity and temperature were higher in CCA than in SCA. The HME led to major improvements of the humidity (from 22.1 to 35.7 mg H(2)O.l(-1)) and temperature (from 23.6 degrees C to 31.5 degrees C) of anesthetic gases in the CCA group. CONCLUSION: CCA was much more advantageous than SCA for maintaining the patient~s airway climate during the 2-h study. The beneficial effect of HME on the airway climate should be emphasized, especially in patients undergoing general anesthesia. ------>tmu_sno=None ------>sno=17631 ------>authors2=Ho ST ------>authors3=Liaw WJ ------>authors4=Chen RM ------>authors5=Chen TL ------>authors6=Lin CY ------>authors6_c= ------>authors=Lu CC ------>delete_flag=0 ------>SCI_JNo=None ------>authors2_c= ------>publish_area=0 ------>updateTitle=The effect of heat-moisture exchanger and closed-circuit technique on airway climate during desflurane anesthesia. ------>language=2 ------>check_flag=None ------>submit_date=None ------>country=NULL ------>no=1 ------>patent_SDate=None ------>update_bywho=None ------>publish_year=2008 ------>submit_flag=None ------>publish_month=4 |
