“ Plasma fluoride ion concentrations increased (+1.36 ± 0.93 μM, P < 0.01) in patients receiving isoflurane but were unchanged (− 0.13 ± 0.50 μM) in patients receiving desflurane.”
“As the serum fluoride level may continue to rise after isoflurane and as this level is approaching toxicity, the role of isoflurane sedation in the critically ill should be approached cautiously.”

“ Plasma fluoride ion concentrations immediately after and 4 hours after exposure to isoflurane were approximately three times greater than values obtained in awake swine before anesthesia.”
“ Fluoride release was enhanced approximately 2.5 to 3 times by halothane or isoflurane ; however, fluroxene inhibited fluoride release and did not enhance the loss of cytochrome P-450.”
