Lesson objectives
1. Understand the history of Sevoflurane2. Recognize the pharmacological
properties of Sevoflurane3. Recognize its specific advantages in
neuroanaesthesia4. Must appreciate unfavourable
conditions produced by Sevoflurane
Introduction:
History started with inhalational anaesthesia.
Past 50 years- 3 gases,13 inhalational anaesthetics were introduced.
Inhalational anaesthetics are routinely used.
They are potent. Balanced anaesthesia.
History
Development of Sevoflurane is an unusual and truly remarkable story.
1960’S-Three investigators evaluated halogenated ethers.
Thomas Cook, Richard Mazze & Michael Halsey-on animals.
Bio transformation- increase in inorganic flouride in urine.
History conti….
Dunken Holaday& Burnell Brown observed sweet smell,low solubility & no arrhythmias.
1981- phase 1 trials. After 10years Yasuda etal compared
Sevo with Iso. Baxter sold sevo to BOC which later
became OHMEDA. OHMEDA sold Sevo to Mariushi japan.
History conti….
Mariushi used Sevo in japan . Approached ABBOTT for FDA approval
in USA. Later phase 2 &3 trials were done. Approved by FDA in 1994. Freely available by 1995.

Factors to be considered in Neuroanaesthesia
Impact on intracranial dynamics Indirect vasoconstriction vs direct
vasodilatation. Effect on ICP& surgical condition. Effect on auto regulation. CO2 reactivity. Studies that have compared the use of
different agents in patients with intra cranial lesions with a certain degree of increased ICT.
Conti…..
The possibility of a quick awakening allowing for rapid post operative neurological assessment.
Low solubility of agents such as Sevoflurane.
Cytoprotective effect. Animal studies only,at this time.
Critical cerebral blood flow(CBF)
Relationship between metabolism and CBF.
Volatile anaesthetics act indirectly on CBF by reducing metabolism.
Directly they are vasodilators.
Net effect depends on agent & dosage used.
CBF CONTI….
Sevo is the least vasodilating agent followed by Iso and Des.
Sevo has net vasoconsticting effect.
Preserves autoregulation upto 2 MAC. Iso&Des disruots auto regulation at 1.5&0.5 MAC.
Critical CBF
Threshold under which CBF is not sufficient to meet the cerebral metabolic needs is called critical CBF.
Below critical CBF brain becomes ischemic.
On awake patients it is 25ml/100gms/min.
The critical CBF with Iso 10ml/100gms/min, with Sevo 11.5ml& with Halothane 20ml/100gms/min.
Cytoprotection Strong evidence showing cytoprotection in
animal experiments by volatile anaesthetics.
Same applies to Propofol but more benificial if given in reperfusion period.
Volatile anaesthetics shown to have preconditioning in rodents.
They allow ischemic tolerance of brain tissue.
Preconditioning is not seen with Propofol. The choice of specific agent in anaesthesia
in a patient with cerebral ischemia solely depends on CPP,ICP& autoregulation.
WHY SEVO IS THE BEST?
Solubility : low blood gas solubility coefficient.
Potency : highly potent MAC averaging at 2% can be given with high 02 does not suppress SSEP.
Air way properties: pleasant smell,no irritation, fast induction no laryngospasm.
Circulatory effects:
Dose dependent fall in BP No sensitization to catecholamines Protective property on myocardium Coronary vasodilation
Respiratory effects: Dose dependent in tidal volume
Slight in end tidal & arterial co2 Bronchodilatation No irritation Less effect on HPVC
CNS effects Dose dependent in total & regional blood flow CMRO2 Slight in ICP Protection against ischemia Preconditioning possible.
Renal effects: 3-5% metobolised . in inorganic flourides. Reacts with sodalime and baralime. CompoundA produced. More in low FGF,when soda lime is dryer& hotter and also with high Sevo. CompoundA 19 ppm at clinical conditions.
Hepatic : very little effect on hepatic blood flow
and function
Conclusions
Favourable points
1. Low blood gas solubility co-efficient2. Rapid induction and recovery3. Potent, can be used with oxygen only4. Pleasant,non-irritating to respiratory
system5. Minimal or no stimulation of air way
reflexes6. Laryngospasm uncommon7. Suitable for all ages8. Compatable with epinephrine
Conclusions
9. Cerebral autoregulation maintained10.Coupling of metabolism and o2
demand maintained11.Rapid recovery and early neurological
assessment possible12.Pre-conditioning of the brain for
ischemic attacks13.Protects brain cells14.Non-inflammable15.No long term effects on vital organs16.Maintains co2 reactivity
Conclusions
Unfavourable points
1. Triggering agent for malignant hyperthermia
2. Emergence dysphoria in children3. Nausea and vomiting4. Seizures 5. Co production
