The purpose of a CO2 absorbent in a rebreathing anesthesia circuit is to absorb and remove CO2 from the patient’s exhaled gases so it cannot be rebreathed. - Dr Wagner
Advantages of isoflurane over older inhalants are: speed of induction and recovery, greater control of depth of anesthesia, less metabolism by the drug in the liver and significantly less sensitization of the heart to catecholamines.
Assessment of anesthetic depth, attention to monitoring blood pressure in anesthetized horses, and use of medication to treat hypotension can reduce the incidence of complications and improve outcome.
