Comparison of Xenon to Nitrous Oxide

Comparison of Xenon to N2o as an Anesthetic Agent

In skin incision and depressing purposeful movement to noxious stimuli, Nitrous Oxide is 1.5 times weaker than Xenon. The emergence time and onset of Xenon is much faster than N2O. In terms of the speed of onset N2O with blood-gas coefficient of 0.47 can match Xenon. N2O with MAC of 104% is suitable to be used as an anesthetic agent, but it is unobtainable clinically. A study by Goto and colleagues discovered that as compared to N2O, Xenon is 2 to 3 times faster ...
