Understanding Pet Isoflurane and Sevoflurane Gas Anesthesia
Isoflurane and sevoflurane are inhalation anesthetics commonly used in veterinary medicine to induce and maintain anesthesia during surgical procedures. These gases are administered through a specialized anesthesia machine and delivered to your pet via a breathing circuit, ensuring precise control over anesthesia depth and duration.
Benefits of Isoflurane and Sevoflurane Gas Anesthesia
Both isoflurane and sevoflurane offer several benefits for pets undergoing anesthesia at Zion Veterinary Hospital, including:
Rapid Onset and Recovery

Smooth Anesthesia Depth
