The Optimal Fresh Gas Flow when employing Total Intravenous Anaesthesia

CWChristine S.W. Wong KHKendra H.Y. Ho AEAlvin W.L. Ee

Key Points

The aim is to identify the optimal fresh gas flow (FGF) during total intravenous anaesthesia (TIVA) considering various factors.
Evaluated fresh gas flow in relation to global economic factors and environmental impact.
Developed a calculator to provide evidence-based recommendations for FGF.
Analyzed the influence of CO₂ absorbent disposal methods on FGF.
The optimal FGF is variable and depends significantly on a country's gas exchange factors.
The calculator offers suggestions that balance economic and environmental considerations.
Context-specific strategies yield better outcomes for FGF management in TIVA.

Abstract

The optimal FGF is context specific. It is highly dependent on a country's GEF and the method of CO₂ absorbent disposal. By factoring in these variables, our calculator provides an evidence-based suggestion for FGF during TIVA, balancing economic and environmental considerations across the globe.
