When do you lower the sleeve in the vapouriser and what effect does it have on anesthetic concentration?

0

The sleeve in the vapouriser may be lowered in order to increase the anaesthetic concentration. For example when no pre-meds are used and you want to mask induce, a very small animal. If you create an open system with high flow rates, for example if anesthetising a bird then put the sleeve in the down position and this will help increase the anaesthetic concentration.
