Summary

The anesthesia machine "Draeger Perseus A 500" has an integrated software which calculates the predicted course of the concentration of oxygen and the volatile anesthetics sevoflurane and desflurane for the next 20 minutes.

The Goal of this study was to evaluate the accuracy of this prediction under controlled clinical circumstances.

Therefore 20 patients undergoing an operation with general anesthesia were included. They were assigned to a sevoflurane- or desflurane-group by lots.

The oxygen- and volatile anesthetic influx into the anesthesia machine's circuit was adjusted following a fixed protocol. The concentration of oxygen and the volatile anesthetic was measured and compared to the predicted values.
