    This study introduces a novel composite electrode for analyzing anesthetic gases. The metallized membrane selectively filters oxygen, enabling simultaneous measurement of nitrous oxide and halothane concentrations.

    Area of Science:

    • Electrochemistry
    • Analytical Chemistry
    • Anesthesia Monitoring

    Background:

    • Accurate monitoring of anesthetic gases is crucial for patient safety.
    • Existing methods may have limitations in simultaneous multi-gas detection.
    • Development of novel electrode systems can improve anesthetic gas analysis.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To describe a prototype composite electrode for simultaneous anesthetic gas measurement.
    • To evaluate the performance of a metallized membrane as an oxygen filter.
    • To assess the electrode's capability for quantifying nitrous oxide and halothane.

    Main Methods:

    • Fabrication of a composite electrode with a metallized membrane outer cathode and a silver disc inner cathode.
    • Utilizing a shared electrolyte for both cathode components.

  • Measuring electrical currents generated by oxygen and anesthetic gases at respective cathode sites.

    • Main Results:

    • The metallized membrane effectively functions as an oxygen filter.
    • Linear relationships were observed between oxygen concentration and metallized membrane current.
    • Linear relationships were established between nitrous oxide concentration and the inner cathode's current.

    Conclusions:

    • The developed composite electrode shows promise for selective oxygen filtration.
    • The system allows for the simultaneous detection of oxygen and anesthetic gases like nitrous oxide.
    • This technique offers potential for simultaneous measurement of halothane and nitrous oxide alongside oxygen.
