Alveolar Isoflurane
The Alveolar Isoflurane parameter is used to simulate the presence of isoflurane in the alveolar
space without using real anesthetic vapors. The isoflurane percentage is input to the drug models to
achieve the expected pharmacodynamic effects (e.g., respiratory depression).
Using this parameter bypasses pharmacokinetics, real and instructor-specified inspired fractions,
venous content, lung perfusion and ventilation. This parameter can be used to focus on
cardiorespiratory effects (pharmacodynamics).
Note: Müse does not verify a 100 % sum of all fractions, because this would require all fractions to be
set.
Default: Modeled
Range: 0.00% - 5.00%
Fraction of Inspired Isoflurane
The Fraction of Inspired Isoflurane parameter is used to simulate the amount of isoflurane set in
the anesthetic vaporizer and is used to calculate alveolar isoflurane.
This parameter has a faster effect on physiology than anesthesia machine settings, because mixing in
the breathing circuit is not simulated.
Note: Müse does not verify a 100 % sum of all fractions, because this would require all fractions to be
set.
Default: 0%
Range: 0.00% - 5.00%
Alveolar Nitrous Oxide
The Alveolar Nitrous Oxide parameter is used to simulate the amount of nitrous oxide set in the
anesthetic vaporizer and is used to calculate alveolar nitrous oxide.
Using this parameter bypasses pharmacokinetics, real and instructor-specified inspired fractions,
venous content, lung perfusion and ventilation. This parameter can be used to focus on
cardiorespiratory effects (pharmacodynamics).
Note: Muse does not verify a 100 % sum of all fractions, because this would require all fractions to be
set.
Default: 0.00%
Range: 0.00% - 80.0%
