A study is described of the first on line, real time analyses of the exhaled breath of five anaesthetized patients during the complete perioperative periods of laparoscopic surgery. These breath analyses were achieved using a selected ion flow tube, SIFT-MS, instrument, located in the operating theatre at an acceptable distance from the operating table, and coupled to the endotracheal tube in the ventilation circuit via a 5 metre long capillary tube. Thus, inhalation/exhalation breathing cycles, set to be at a frequency of 10 per minute, were sampled continuously for water vapour, the metabolites acetone and isoprene and the propofol used to induce anaesthesia for each operating period that ranged from 20 min (shortest) to 80 min (longest). Whilst there was some loss of water vapour along the long sampling line, the concentrations of the other trace compounds were not diminished.
