methoxyflurane and Aging

methoxyflurane has been researched along with Aging in 5 studies

Methoxyflurane: An inhalation anesthetic. Currently, methoxyflurane is rarely used for surgical, obstetric, or dental anesthesia. If so employed, it should be administered with NITROUS OXIDE to achieve a relatively light level of anesthesia, and a neuromuscular blocking agent given concurrently to obtain the desired degree of muscular relaxation. (From AMA Drug Evaluations Annual, 1994, p180)
methoxyflurane : An ether in which the two groups attached to the central oxygen atom are methyl and 2,2-dichloro-1,1-difluoroethyl.

Aging: The gradual irreversible changes in structure and function of an organism that occur as a result of the passage of time.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"To define the effect of aging on the pharmacokinetics of volatile anesthetics, we determined the end-tidal and mixed expired anesthetic concentrations of isoflurane, enflurane, halothane, and methoxyflurane during 30 min of simultaneous administration and for 5-12 days of elimination in seven healthy young patients (31 +/- 1."3.68Age affects the pharmacokinetics of inhaled anesthetics in humans.
