Inadvertent administration of 100% oxygen during anaesthesia.
Sir,—Modern anaesthetic machines have a device (usually referred to as "the oxygen bypass" or "emergency oxygen") which enables the anaesthetist to administer high flows of 100% oxygen.

This occurrence is most likely if...

متن کاملSedation during spinal anaesthesia: a case for the routine administration of oxygen.
We have studied the effect of sedation with midazolam on arterial oxygen saturation during spinal anaesthesia in two groups of patients: one group received supplementary oxygen, the other group breathed room air. A significant reduction in oxygen saturation was observed in patients not receiving supplementary oxygen; six of 15 patients in this group developed hypoxaemia or severe hypoxaemia whi...
متن کاملThe effect of enteral oxygen administration on the hepatic circulation during halothane anaesthesia: clinical observations.
A study of the estimated hepatic blood flow (EHBF) using a colloidal gold technique in 28 patients undergoing saphenous vein stripping, showed that the EHBF decreased to 68% of its initial value during the period of halothane anaeshtesia and operation. When enteral oxygen was added EHBF increased to 82% of its initial value. An investigation in 14 other patients under going upper abdominal oper...
