[Lipid metabolism during general anesthesia with halothane in relation to the oxygen content in the inhalation
Abstract:
Lipid metabolism (nonesterified fatty acids, triglycerides) was studied in experimental animals under halothane anesthesia in conditions of spontaneous respiration in dependence on oxygen content in the inhalation mixture. The results have shown that changes in blood lipid fractions depend on oxygen concentration in the inhalation mixture during anesthesia. In high oxygen content, there is an enhancement of lipolysis in fatty tissues. Lipogenesis processes predominant in the liver do not depend on oxygen concentration in the inhalation mixture.

Physiological Control of Respiration
Breathing, a seemingly passive process, is regulated by the respiratory center in the brainstem. This center coordinates the involuntary control of respirations, which means it occurs without conscious effort, ensuring a smooth and uninterrupted pattern.
Regulation of Ventilation
The body maintains ventilation by monitoring levels of carbon dioxide (CO2), oxygen (O2), and hydrogen ion concentration (pH) in the arterial blood. Among these factors, the level of CO2 plays a crucial...

Nasal Cannula
A nasal cannula is a lightweight tube split at one end into two prongs and placed in the nostrils. It is typically used to deliver low to medium levels of oxygen.
Suggested flow rate: The suggested flow rate for a nasal cannula typically ranges between 1 and 6 L/min.
Oxygen percentage setting:...
