    Background: The break through spontaneous effort in anaesthetized and ventilated patients is seen as ‘curarecleft’ during expiratory plateau phase of the capnography. At the open position of the sevoflurane vaporizer, the sevograph displays a mirror image graph to the capnograph. We studied the sevograph changes corresponding to ‘curare-cleft’ in capnography. Methods: We have observed that during break through spontaneous breaths the sevograph complemented ‘curare-crest’ corresponding to ‘curare-cleft’ in six patients. In second part of study 25 consenting adult patients coming for surgery were given general anaesthesia using fentanyl, propofol and suxamethonium. After tracheal intubation, controlled ventilation was started under sevoflurane anaesthesia. We allowed the onset of sp.. View More»
