Like all other highly active inhalation anesthetics, desflurane can cause a dose-dependent depression of respiration and cardiac activity. Most other adverse reactions are mild and transient.
Data compiled in clinical trials
Undesirable reactions are grouped by systems and organs, using the following frequency criteria: very often
(> 1/10); often (> 1/100 - <1/10); infrequently (> 1/1 000 - <1/100); rarely (> 1/10 000 - <1/1 000); very rarely (< 1/10 000).
Introductory anesthesia
From the side of the psyche: often - holding the breath.
On the part of the respiratory system, the organon of the thorax and the mediastinum: very often - cough, often laryngospasm, apnea, infrequently - hypoxia.
From the gastrointestinal tract: very often - nausea, vomiting, often - increased salivation.
Supportive anesthesia
From the side of the psyche: often - a delay in breathing, infrequently - an alarm.
From the side of the neural system: often - a headache, infrequently - dizziness.
From the cardiovascular system: often - tachycardia, increased blood pressure, bradycardia, nodal rhythm, notoften - vasodilation, arrhythmia, myocardial ischemia, myocardial infarction.
From the respiratory system, chest and mediastinum: often - apnea, cough, pharyngitis, infrequently - hypoxia.
From the gastrointestinal tract: very often - nausea, vomiting, often - increased salivation.
From the musculoskeletal system and connective tissue: infrequently - myalgia.
From the side of the organ of vision: often - conjunctivitis.
Laboratory and instrumental data: often - an increase in the activity of creatine phosphokinase, a decrease in the content of oxyhemoglobin in the blood <90%; ECG deviations.
