Abstract : Thirty healthy mongrel dogs, premedicated with levomepromazine (0.5mg/kg) and induced with tiopental sodium were anesthetized for 60 minutes as follow:group 1 (G1) sevoflurane in oxygen 100%; group 2 (G2) sevoflurane in nitrous oxide and oxygen 50% each and group 3 (G3) sevoflurane in oxygen 27% and nitrous oxide 63%. Heart rate increased significantly after induction (P
