Sevoflurane anaesthesia with an Oxford Miniature Vaporizer in vaporizer inside circle mode.
Anaesthesia was induced and maintained successfully with sevoflurane using an Oxford Miniature Vaporizer (OMV) in vaporizer inside circle (VIC) mode. With continuous monitoring using the Drager Narkomed 4 machine agent analyser, the expired sevoflurane concentration was monitored and controlled easily. During induction, there was no cardiovascular depression, apnoea or coughing, but involuntary movements and breath-holding were common.
