Title: Silicone rubber: a new diffusion property useful for general anesthesia. Author: Folkman J, Long DM, Rosenbaum R. Journal: Science; 1966 Oct 07; 154(3745):148-9. PubMed ID: 5922861. Abstract: Ether, nitrous oxide, halothane, and cyclopropane diffuse through silicone rubber. General anesthesia can be produced in dogs by passing the vapors of any of these anesthetic agents through a coil of silicone rubber tubing, each end of which is placed in an artery and vein. Potential applications include a new method for general anesthesia and a simple accurate vaporizer for halothane.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
