BACKGROUND: As volatile anaesthetic gases contribute to global warming, improving the efficiency of their delivery can reduce their environmental impact. This can be achieved by rebreathing from a circle system, but also by anaesthetic reflection with an open intensive care ventilator. We investigated whether the efficiency of such a reflection system could be increased by warming the reflector during inspiration and cooling it during expiration (thermocycling).
METHODS: The Sedaconda-ACD-S (Sedana Medical, Danderyd, Sweden) was connected between an intensive care ventilator and a test lung. Liquid isoflurane was infused into the device at 0.5, 1.0, 2.0 and 5.0 mL/h; ventilator settings were 500 mL tidal volume, 12 bpm, 21% oxygen. Isoflurane concentrations were measured inside the test lung after equilibration. Thermocycling was achieved by heating the breathing gas in the inspiratory hose to 37 °C via a heated humidifier without water. Breathing gas expired from the test lung was cooled to 14 °C before reaching the ACD-S. In the test lung, body temperature pressure saturated conditions prevailed. Isoflurane concentrations and reflective efficiency were compared between thermocycling and control conditions.
RESULTS: With thermocycling higher isoflurane concentrations in the test lung were measured for all infusion rates studied. Interpolation of data showed that for achieving 0.4 (0.6) Vol% isoflurane, the infusion rate can be reduced from 1.2 to 0.7 (2.0 to 1.2) mL/h or else to 56% (58%) of control.
CONCLUSION: Thermocycling of the anaesthetic gas considerably increases the efficiency of the anaesthetic reflector and reduces anaesthetic consumption by almost half in a test lung model. Given that cooling can be miniaturized, this method carries a potential for further saving anaesthetics in clinical practice in the operating theatre as well as for inhaled sedation in the ICU.
