Full text not available from this repository. (Request a copy)The objective was to compare the use of 0.3 and >0.95 oxygen inspired fraction during general anesthesia in horses. Forty
client-owned adult horses were anesthetized in dorsal or in lateral recumbency with isoflurane in oxygen and randomly allocated to receive
inspiratory fraction of oxygen >0.95 (group HIGH) or 0.3 (group LOW). Mechanical ventilation was provided using pressure controlled
mode. Arterial blood gas analysis was performed before, during and after general anesthesia. The group LOW obtained lower intra-operative
PaO2 values but better indices of venous admixture than the group HIGH. The PaO2 further decreased during the recovery, without
significant differences between groups. Even though the use of lower oxygen inspired fraction (0.3) tended to improve pulmonary function
during general anesthesia, it markedly decreased safety as a result of hypoxemia. During the recovery, no difference was observed between
groups for the arterial oxygenation such that lower intra-anesthetic oxygen inspired fraction did not provide any advantages.
