[Testing of an ultraviolet Halothane Meter].
The object of Halothane Meter (HM) study is to estimate its reliability (accuracy and stability) and its possible effect on the degradation of the molecule by the action of the UV (254 nm). The zero instability of the apparatus, clinically evident, is due to the constructor who undertakes to modify it. The molecule analysis, treated in vivo (4 hours of anesthesia) and in vitro by irradiation respectively by the HM (cathodeon 254 nm) and a source of some wavelength UV is realised by UV spectrophotometry, IR spectrophotometry, RMN spectrometry. The results of all analysis allow to exclude the molecule degradation which could impede the recirculation of treated gas in a closed circle.
