Desflurane decreases the vasoconstriction and shivering thresholds disproportionately at high anesthetic concentrations. This result contrasts with the authors' previous report that isoflurane decreases the vasoconstriction threshold linearly. It is surprising that the basic shape of the concentration-response curve should differ with these two otherwise similar anesthetics. Therefore, the hypothesis that isoflurane produces a nonlinear reduction in the vasoconstriction threshold was tested. Because the effect of isoflurane on shivering remains unknown, the extent to which isoflurane reduces the shivering threshold also was determined.
