The process of complete fluorination in Desflurane produces all the following effects except:: (A) Decreases blood and tissue solubility, (B) High vapor pressure, (C) High potency, (D) Requirement of special vaporiser
Answer is C. The process of complete fluorination of the ether molecule has several effects. It decreases blood: tissue solubility which results in loss of potency. It also results in a high vapour pressure owing to decreased intermolecular alteration requiring new heated pressurized vaporizer.
