The technique of inhalation anaethesia in experimental investigation in the rat
Folia Morphol 2006;65(4):414-418.
Abstract
The rat is the most frequently used animal in scientific inquiry conducted for the
purpose of advancing basic knowledge that may lead to an improvement in the
results of treatment. Understanding of the pharmacological properties of inhalation
anaesthetics, in combination with monitoring of their concentration in
the inspired and end-tidal gas, together provide safe and precise control of the
depth of the anaesthesia. However, accurate application of the inhalation method
of anaesthesia requires special equipment for the delivery and effective scavenging
of inhalation anaesthetics.
