Oxygen Flow Rates

When using a semi-closed rebreathing system, what is the oxygen flow rate during induction, recovery, and a change in anesthetic level?

50-100 ml/kg/min

When using a semi-closed rebreathing system, what is the oxygen flow rate during maintenance?

20-40 ml/kg/min

When using a semi-closed rebreathing system, what is the oxygen flow rate for "low flow"?

20 ml/kg/min

When using a non-breathing bag, what is the oxygen flow rate for induction, maintenance, recovery or change in anesthetic level?

1-3 L/min (400-600 ml/kg/min)

What is the oxygen flow rate when using chamber induction?

5 L/min

What are the oxygen flow rates when using mask induction?

1-3 L/min if < 10kg

3-5 L/min if > 10kg

Using a semi-closed rebreathing system, what is the oxygen flow rate when minimal rebreathing is desired? (emergency situations)

200-300 ml/kg/min

When using a closed rebreathing system, what is the oxygen flow rate for maintenance? (intended to only be used during maintenance)

5-10 ml/kg/min

What are the induction and maintenance dosages for Isoflurane?

Induction: 3-5%

Maintenance: 1.5-2.5%

What are the induction and maintenance dosages for Sevoflurane

Induction: 4-6%
