Phermacokinetics of lnhaled Anesthetics is dependent on:
1. Amount that rarches the brain
2. Partial Pressure of anesthetics
3. Solubility of gas into blood (blood:gas solubiliry coefficient)
4. Cardiac Output

Explanations

  • 1. Indicatcd by oil:gas ratio (lipid solubility)
    2. 5% ancsthetics = 38 mmHg
    3. The lower the blood:gas ratio, the more anesthetics will arrive at the brain
    4. Incrcased CO = greater induction time
