Inhalation anesthesia with methoxyflurane for guinea pig ear surgery. 1978

R T Watson, and K McLeod

Anesthesia with methoxyflurane is ideal for long-term middle ear experiments on guinea pigs. This communication describes the use of a conventional pediatric anesthetic circuit that delivers a mixture of methoxyflurane and air by a face mask; it is effective, safe, and simple to use.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008733 Methoxyflurane An inhalation anesthetic. Currently, methoxyflurane is rarely used for surgical, obstetric, or dental anesthesia. If so employed, it should be administered with NITROUS OXIDE to achieve a relatively light level of anesthesia, and a neuromuscular blocking agent given concurrently to obtain the desired degree of muscular relaxation. (From AMA Drug Evaluations Annual, 1994, p180) Methofluranum,Anecotan,Penthrane,Pentrane
D004432 Ear, Middle The space and structures directly internal to the TYMPANIC MEMBRANE and external to the inner ear (LABYRINTH). Its major components include the AUDITORY OSSICLES and the EUSTACHIAN TUBE that connects the cavity of middle ear (tympanic cavity) to the upper part of the throat.
