Product Overview:
Isoflurane 99.9% Inhalation Solution is a highly purified, volatile liquid anesthetic agent used primarily for the induction and maintenance of general anesthesia. Packaged in a 250mL bottle, this product is intended for use in controlled environments such as operating rooms and veterinary settings, where precise delivery of anesthetic agents is crucial for patient care.
Key Features:
- High Purity:
- The solution contains 99.9% pure isoflurane, ensuring consistent and reliable anesthetic effects. The high purity reduces the risk of impurities that could potentially cause adverse reactions.
- Isoflurane is a volatile anesthetic agent, meaning it is administered by vaporization. It is used in conjunction with an anesthetic vaporizer to achieve precise control over the depth and duration of anesthesia.
- Isoflurane is known for its rapid induction and recovery times, making it a preferred choice in surgical procedures where quick patient turnaround is essential. This characteristic also allows for easy adjustment of anesthetic depth during procedures.
- Isoflurane is recognized for its minimal impact on cardiovascular function, making it suitable for use in patients with compromised cardiovascular health. It maintains cardiac output and has minimal effect on heart rate and blood pressure at therapeutic concentrations.
- Isoflurane is widely used in both human and veterinary medicine. It is suitable for a range of patients, including those undergoing short, outpatient procedures as well as longer, more complex surgeries.
