Q

Brain uptake of anesthetic depends on what four factors?

A
  1. Blood Solubility –> the higher the solubility the slower the uptake
  2. Cardiac Output
  3. Alveolar ventilation –> increasing the ventilation speeds uptake
  4. Inspired concentration –> increasing inspired concentration speeds brain uptake
