Thirty-four adults were studied during halothane anaesthesia with spontaneous breathing, while undergoing orthopaedic surgery. They were randomly divided into two groups according to whether the Bain (n = 18) or the Lack (n = 16) system was used. Respiratory flows were recorded and arterial blood gases drawn at different fresh gas flows (VF). The values obtained were compared with those recorded under non-rebreathing conditions (NRC). In the Bain system the proportion of rebreathers was 0.22, 0.25, 0.55 and 0.83 when the VF was 175, 150, 125 and 100 ml X min-1 X kg-1 body weight (b.w.), respectively. In the Lack system these proportions were 0.43, 0.55 and 0.92 at VF of 85, 70 and 55 ml X min-1 kg-1 b.w., respectively. The ventilatory response to rebreathing was an increase in minute ventilation (VE), keeping the partial pressure of arterial carbon dioxide (PACO2) almost unaltered. In the Bain system the VE X kg-1 X b.w. thus increased by 18% and 38% at VF of 125 and 100 ml X min-1 X kg-1 b.w., respectively, when compared to NRC (P less than 0.05). The corresponding increases in the Lack system were 15% and 37% at VF of 70 and 55 ml X min-1 X kg-1 b.w., respectively (P less than 0.01). In the Lack group also the PACO2 increased by 6% when a VF of 55 ml X min-1 X kg-1 b.w. was used compared to the value obtained under NRC (P less than 0.05).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
