  ABSTRACT: In order to evaluate whether the risk of bacterial contamination increased during low-flow anaesthesia without bacterial filter compared with non-rebreathing anaesthesia with a disposable bacterial filter, two groups of patient were studied. In the first group a disposable circle absorber system was changed once daily, thus it was used for several patients. In the second group a non-rebreathing system was connected to a disposable bacterial filter before each surgical procedure. Samples for microbiological examination were taken preoperatively from the oropharynx and postoperatively from three locations in the circle system and in the non-rebreathing system. No difference in rates of circuit contamination were observed between the two groups.

  ABSTRACT: Speed of onset, duration of action and recovery time for a bolus injection of atracurium were measured in two groups of patients. In group I anaesthesia considered of propofol, fentanyl, nitrous oxide and oxygen mixture. The induction dose of propofol was 2 mg/kg-1 followed by an infusion of 9.0 mg/kg-1/h-1 for first half hour and 4.5 mg/Kg-1/h-1 subsequently. In group II anaesthesia consisted of isoflurane, fentanyl, nitrous oxide and oxygen mixture. Isoflurane was given upon clinical needs. Speed of onset, duration of action, and recovery time for atracurium were measured in the two groups. No statistically significant differences between speed of onset and duration of action between the two groups were found. The recovery period from T1 = 10% to T1 = 70% twitch response was considerably longer with isoflurane (25 min +/- 6) than with propofol (18 min +/- 3) (p less than 0.01). Results obtained suggest that for adequate relaxation during tracheal intubation smaller doses of atracurium are not needed during isoflurane than propofol administration. Because of the longer recovery period of residual neuromuscular blockade during isoflurane anaesthesia decreasing doses of atracurium and careful monitoring of twitch depression tension are also suggested.
