Why Inhalant Anesthesia?

95% of US Facilities Use Inhalant Anesthesia Because… Fast Safe Cost Effective

Why Inhalant Anesthesia? Fast Induction < 2 minutes Recovery < 2 minutes

Why Inhalant Anesthesia? Safe Quickly Metabolized via Respiration Anesthetic Depth Easily Adjusted Unlikely to Overdose Subject Shorter Recovery Times

Why Inhalant Anesthesia? Cost Effective High Productivity Reuse of Animals for Future Study Lower Mortality Rate Anesthetic Agent Relatively Low Cost No Drug Logs/Special Licenses

Anesthesia Systems One or Two Animals

Anesthesia Systems Multiple Animals/High Volume

Special Applications Molecular Imaging

Molecular Imaging Considerations Compatible With All Modalities Animal Handling Imaging Facility Layout Single vs. Multi Modality Imaging Biosafety and Radiation

GLP Considerations USA Environmental Protection Agency Food & Drug Administration International Organization for Economic Cooperation & Development (OECD)

GLP Considerations US FDA and EPA Tend to have more requirements than OECD Require SOPs for Equipment Maintenance and Calibration

GLP Considerations FDA/EPA/OECD Overriding Principles State What You’re going to Do Do What You Stated You’d Do Document That You Did It
