Sampling of biological fluids was performed during balanced inhalational (desflurane, fentanyl) anaesthesia and total intravenous (propofol, fentanyl) anaesthesia. The described method for drug concentration measurement in biologic fluids does not require long-term sample processing before injecting the sample into mass-spectrometer interface, in contrast to chromatographic methods. A hydrophobic membrane was used in the interface to separate anaesthetic agents from biological fluids: inhalational anaesthetic desflurane, hypnotic propofol, analgesic fentanyl.
