Q. Regarding inhaled anaesthetics (Solved)
1. They reduce MAP in direct proportion to their alveolar concentration
2. Nitrous oxide has a relatively low MAC
3. Halogenated agents have a lower brain:blood partition coefficient
4. Nitrous oxide causes a decrease in tidal volume and an increase in respiratory rate
5. They decrease the metabolic rate in the brain by decreasing cerebral blood flow
- a. They reduce MAP in direct proportion to their alveolar concentration
