Suggests narrower safety margin for I-653 than isoflurane in swine; leaves open translation to human anesthesia.
Does I-653 have a different margin of safety and cardiovascular profile compared to isoflurane in mechanically ventilated swine?
I-653 has a narrower margin of safety compared to isoflurane in swine, though cardiovascular collapse is unlikely during spontaneous ventilation as it exceeds the concentration producing apnea.
Weiskopf et al. (1989) studied this question.
