Isoflurane is given through inhalation (breathing the gas into the lungs) by trained anesthesia professionals in a controlled environment like an operating room before and during surgery or procedures.
General anesthesia is commonly used for extensive and long surgeries, but also can be used in shorter and limited procedures.
During your surgery or procedure the anesthesiologist will closely monitory all your body systems and treat any serious side effects.

 Isoflurane - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Its use in human medicine is now starting to decline, being replaced with sevoflurane, desflurane and the intravenous anaesthetic propofol.
It is usually used to maintain a state of general anesthesia that has been induced with another drug, such as thiopentone or propofol.
Together with enflurane and halothane it replaced the flammable ethers used in the pioneer days of surgery.

 (S-255) HIGH DOSE ISOFLURANE INCREASES BRAIN TISSUE OXYGENATION IN DOGS
METHODS: Six dogs were anesthetized, intubated and venti- lated with isoflurane for surgery.
The purpose of this study was to determine whether high dose isoflurane anesthesia can produce a similar effect in dogs and the importance of cerebral perfusion pressure in mediating this effect.
Normal brain vascular regulation that limits hyperperfusion and hyperoxygenation of brain tissue is antagonized by high dose isoflurane and this can enhance brain capillary and tissue oxygenation if blood pressure is supported.

 Sevoflurane versus isoflurane for maintenance of anesthesia: are serum inorganic fluoride ion concentrations of concern?
We measured serum fluoride levels, renal function, and recovery variables as a function of time in ASA grade I-III patients administered general anesthesia with isoflurane or sevoflurane for at least 1 h.
Fifty patients were exposed to sevoflurane (< or = 2.4% inspired concentration) or isoflurane (< or = 1.9% inspired concentration) for maintenance of anesthesia as part of a multicenter trial.
Mean serum fluoride levels were significantly increased in sevoflurane versus isoflurane groups at all time points; the mean peak serum levels were 28.2 ± 14 mmol/L at 1 h for sevoflurane and 5.08 ± 4.35 mmol/L at 12 h for isoflurane.
