ObjectiveTo evaluate the efficacy of maropitant for prevention of vomiting and gastroesophageal reflux (GER) in dogs following acepromazine-hydromorphone premedication and inhalation anesthesia.Study designRandomized, blinded, prospective clinical study.AnimalsTwenty-six dogs admitted for elective soft tissue or orthopedic procedures that were 3.1 ±3.1 years of age and weighed 20.5 ± 11.4 kg.MethodsDogs were randomly assigned to one of two groups: Group M received maropitant (1.0 mg kg?1) and Group S received 0.9% saline (0.1 mL kg?1) intravenously 45–60 minutes before premedication with hydromorphone (0.1 mg kg?1) and acepromazine (0.03 mg kg?1) intramuscularly. An observer blinded to treatment documented any retching or vomiting for 20 minutes before induction with propofol (2–6 mg kg?1) and inhalation anesthesia. A pH probe inserted into the distal esophagus was used to detect GER.ResultsNone of the dogs in Group M retched or vomited (0/13), 6/13 (46%) in Group S were observed to retch or vomit, and the difference between groups was significant (p = 0.015). There were no differences between groups in the number of dogs with GER (Group M: 4/13, Group S: 6/13 dogs) or the number of reflux events. Esophageal pH at the end of anesthesia was significantly lower in both M and S groups in dogs with GER versus dogs without GER (p = 0.004 and 0.011, respectively). Only dogs with GER in Group S had significantly lower pH at the end compared to the beginning of anesthesia (p = 0.004).Conclusions and clinical relevanceIntravenous maropitant prevented retching and vomiting associated with acepromazine-hydromorphone premedication. Maropitant did not prevent the occurrence of GER. Fewer dogs in Group M developed GER but further study with a larger number of dogs is necessary to determine if there is a significant difference.  相似文献

BackgroundBone foreign bodies are commonly encountered in small animal practice. Esophageal bone foreign bodies (E‐bFBs) warrant removal, whereas gastric bone foreign bodies might not.ObjectivesDescribe management and outcomes for dogs with esophageal or gastric bone foreign bodies.AnimalsOne hundred twenty‐nine dogs with esophageal (n = 45) or gastric (n = 84) bone foreign bodies.MethodsRetrospective review of medical records.ResultsDogs with E‐bFBs were younger than dogs with gastric bone foreign bodies (median age esophageal, 4 years [IQR 2‐8]; median age gastric, 6 years [IQR 3‐10]; P = .03), and had a higher bone cross‐sectional area relative to body weight (median esophageal, 98.21 mm2/kg [IQR 48.25‐142.6]; median gastric, 28.6 mm2/kg [IQR 17.25‐64.28]; P < .001). Forty‐two of 45 esophageal foreign bodies were resolved non‐surgically and 3 by esophagotomy. Esophageal erosions were more likely with distal entrapment (OR 12.88, [95% CI 31.95‐129.29], P = .01) and longer duration (OR 18.82 [95% CI 2.22‐273.97], P = .01). Sixty‐two of 84 bone gastric foreign bodies were left in situ. Endoscopic removal was successful in 20 of 22 (91%; 95% CI 70‐99) attempts.Conclusions and Clinical ImportanceWhile all E‐bFBs were dislodged either by advancement into the stomach, endoscopic removal, or esophagotomy, the majority of gastric bone foreign bodies were left in situ for dissolution, with no reported complications. Gastric advancement of E‐bFBs should be considered when oral removal is not feasible, and dissolution can be considered even with large bones.  相似文献

ObjectiveTo determine if a 15° reverse Trendelenburg position decreases the incidence of gastroesophageal reflux (GER) compared with a horizontal position in dogs anesthetized for stifle surgery.Study designProspective, randomized parallel-arm study.AnimalsA total of 44 healthy client-owned dogs were enrolled and data from 36 dogs were analyzed.MethodsDogs requiring preoperative radiographs under anesthesia, or with a history of gastrointestinal signs or administered gastroprotectant therapy within 1 month of surgery were excluded. Anesthesia protocol was standardized to include hydromorphone, dexmedetomidine, ketamine, propofol and isoflurane. Dogs were randomly assigned at enrollment to be positioned in a 15° reverse Trendelenburg or a horizontal position for surgery. Continuous pH monitoring was documented throughout the procedure with a 6.4 Fr (2.13 mm) esophageal pH probe positioned in the distal esophagus via the oral cavity. GER was defined as pH < 4.0 (acidic) or > 7.5 (alkaline) for more than 30 seconds. The proportions of dogs developing GER were compared between groups using Fisher’s exact test. Time to reflux was compared using survival curves and the Gehan–Breslow–Wilcoxon test. Statistical significance was set as p < 0.05.ResultsAn episode of GER occurred in 11/36 (30%) dogs. Reflux was alkaline in two dogs and acidic in nine dogs. The proportion of dogs with GER was 5/18 (28%) and 6/18 (33%) for dogs in the reverse Trendelenburg position and horizontal position, respectively, and was not statistically significant (p > 0.99). Median (range) time until reflux was 44 (23–135) and 44.5 (9–56) minutes when dogs were positioned in reverse Trendelenburg position and horizontal position, respectively (p = 0.66; two-tailed Mann–Whitney U test).Conclusions and clinical relevancePositioning the surgery table in a 15° rostral elevation for dogs anesthetized for elective stifle surgical procedures did not decrease the incidence of GER.  相似文献

ObjectiveTo determine if general anesthesia with sevoflurane and laparoscopic surgery changed gastric and small bowel propulsive motility or pH in dogs.Study designProspective, controlled trial.AnimalsTwelve, 19–24 months old, female, Treeing Walker Hound dogs, weighing 23–30 kg.MethodsDogs were anesthetized for a median of 8.5 hours during another study to determine the minimum alveolar concentration of sevoflurane using a visceral stimulus. Gastric and small bowel motility were determined using a sensor capsule that measures pressure, pH and temperature. Gastric transit time and motility index were calculated. For 8/12 dogs, gastric motility, pH and transit time were measured. In 4/12 dogs, small bowel motility and pH were measured.ResultsAnesthesia decreased gastric and small bowel motility but did not change luminal pH. Mean gastric contraction force decreased from median (range) 11 (8–20) to 3 (1–10) mmHg (p < 0.01) and gastric motility index decreased from 0.63 (0–1.58) to 0 (0–0.31; p = 0.01). Frequency of contractions did not change, 3.7 (1.6–4.4) versus 2.8 (0.1–5.1) contractions minute?1 (p = 0.1). Gastric motility returned to normal 12–15 hours following anesthesia. Gastric emptying was prolonged from 12 (5.3–16) to 49 (9.75–56.25) hours (p < 0.01). Mean small bowel contraction force decreased from 34 (24–37) to 3 (0.9–17) mmHg (p < 0.02) and motility index decreased from 3.75 (1–4.56) to 0 (0–1.53; p = 0.02). Frequency of contractions did not change, 0.5 (0.3–1.4) versus 1.4 (0.3–4.6) contractions minute?1 (p = 0.11). Small bowel motility returned within 2 hours after anesthesia. Laparoscopy did not result in changes to gastric or small bowel parameters beyond those produced by general anesthesia.Conclusions and clinical relevanceThe force of gastric and small bowel contractions decreased during sevoflurane anesthesia for laparoscopy. Although gastric motility returned to normal within 12–15 hours the impairment of gastric emptying lasted 30–40 hours, predisposing dogs to postoperative ileus.  相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To determine whether maintenance of anesthesia with halothane or sevoflurane is associated with a lower incidence of gastroesophageal reflux (GER) than the use of isoflurane in dogs undergoing orthopedic surgery. ANIMALS: 90 dogs. PROCEDURES: Dogs were evaluated during elective orthopedic surgery. Dogs with a history of vomiting or that had received any drugs that would alter gastrointestinal tract function were excluded from the study. The anesthetic protocol used was standardized to include administration of acepromazine maleate and morphine prior to induction of anesthesia with thiopental. Dogs were allocated to receive halothane, isoflurane, or sevoflurane to maintain anesthesia. A sensor-tipped catheter was placed to measure esophageal pH during anesthesia. Gastroesophageal reflux was defined as an esophageal pH < 4 or > 7.5. RESULTS: 51 dogs had 1 or more episodes of acidic GER during anesthesia. Reflux was detected in 14 dogs receiving isoflurane, 19 dogs receiving halothane, and 18 dogs receiving sevoflurane. In dogs with GER, mean +/- SD time from probe placement to onset of GER was 36 +/- 65 minutes and esophageal pH remained < 4 for a mean of 64% of the measurement period. There was no significant association between GER and start of surgery or moving a dog on or off the surgery table. Dogs that developed GER soon after induction of anesthesia were more likely to regurgitate. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Maintenance of anesthesia with any of the 3 commonly used inhalant agents is associated with a similar risk for development of GER in dogs.  相似文献

Background

Gastroesophageal reflux (GER) is common in anesthetized dogs and can cause esophagitis, esophageal stricture, and aspiration pneumonia.

Objective

To determine whether preanesthetic IV administration of esomeprazole alone or esomeprazole and cisapride increases esophageal pH and decreases the frequency of GER in anesthetized dogs using combined multichannel impedance and pH monitoring.

Animals

Sixty‐one healthy dogs undergoing elective orthopedic surgery procedures.

Methods

Prospective, randomized, placebo‐controlled study. Dogs were randomized to receive IV saline (0.9% NaCl), esomeprazole (1 mg/kg) alone, or a combination of esomeprazole (1 mg/kg) and cisapride (1 mg/kg) 12–18 hours and 1–1.5 hours before anesthetic induction. An esophageal pH/impedance probe was utilized to measure esophageal pH and detect GER.

Results

Eight of 21 dogs in the placebo group (38.1%), 8 of 22 dogs in the esomeprazole group (36%), and 2 of 18 dogs in the combined esomeprazole and cisapride group (11%) had ≥1 episode of GER on impedance testing during anesthesia (P < .05). Esomeprazole was associated with a significant increase in gastric and esophageal pH (P = .001), but the drug did not significantly decrease the frequency of GER (P = .955). Concurrent administration of cisapride was associated with a significant decrease in the number of reflux events (RE) compared to the placebo and esomeprazole groups (P < .05).

Conclusions and Clinical Relevance

Preanesthetic administration of cisapride and esomeprazole decreases the number of RE in anesthetized dogs, but administration of esomeprazole alone was associated with nonacid and weakly acidic reflux in all but 1 dog.  相似文献

This research aimed to determine the value of esophageal pH in awake and anesthetized dogs, to evaluate the esophageal pH value in awake dogs, in different body positions, as well as to study the occurrence of gastroesophageal reflux episodes in these positions. Thus, 40 healthy male and female adult dogs with mean body weight of 15.5 ± 4.6 kg were used. Esophageal pHmetry was conducted by inserting a catheter through the oropharynx in 30 dogs (stage 1) anesthetized with acepromazine, propofol and isoflurane, submitted to elective ovariosalpingohysterectomy. In addition, 8-h esophageal pHmetry was carried out transnasally in 10 awake dogs (stage 2), allowed to move and change body positions (lateral and sternal decubitus, and standing position), which were recorded. The mean esophageal pH value was lower (p < 0.01) in the anesthetized dogs (7.3 ± 0.82) than in the awake dogs (8.2 ± 0.3). Only four anesthetized dogs (13.33%) suffered reflux episodes. Reflux was not observed in the awake dogs and no esophageal pH differences were found between the body positions studied. Compared to the alert state, general anesthesia in dogs submitted to the previously mentioned anesthesia protocol causes esophageal pH reduction and predisposes to the occurrence of gastroesophageal reflux episodes. Transnasal pHmetry of 8 h in healthy awake dogs reveals that the esophageal pH value is alkaline and does not vary according to body position. In these animals, decubitus position is not a determining factor for reflux episodes to occur.  相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To determine the effect of suction, lavage and instillation of sodium bicarbonate solution on esophageal pH during acidic gastro-esophageal reflux (GER) in anesthetized dogs. STUDY DESIGN: Prospective, clinical trial. ANIMALS: Ten healthy dogs, 4.8 +/- 2.4 years old, and weighing 37.1 +/- 7.9 kg. METHODS: Dogs were admitted to the study if they were under general anesthesia and regurgitation occurred. A sensor-tipped catheter was used to measure esophageal pH. On study entry the esophagus was suctioned. After an interval of at least 5 minutes, if the esophageal pH was still less than 4 the esophagus was lavaged with tap water and again suctioned. In 6 dogs 20 mL of dilute bicarbonate solution was instilled into the esophageal lumen. RESULTS: Suctioning fluid from the esophagus did not change the pH significantly. Lavage with tap water caused the pH to increase above 4 in four dogs, with the average pH increasing from 1.2 +/- 0.5 to 3.5 +/- 4.9. In all dogs where dilute bicarbonate solution was instilled, esophageal pH increased to above 6 for up to 180 (mean +/- SD, 89 +/- 81) minutes. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Suctioning refluxate from the esophagus does not change the pH of the esophageal lumen. Instillation of a small volume of bicarbonate solution predictably increased the pH above 4 following an episode of acidic GER. Care must be taken that fluid is instilled into the lumen of the esophagus, and not into the trachea.  相似文献

Administration of morphine before anesthesia leads to gastro-esophageal reflux (GER) in over 50% of dogs during the subsequent anesthetic. This GER is clinically silent but can lead to aspiration pneumonitis, esophagitis and esophageal stricture. In this prospective clinical study we aimed to determine the effect of metoclopramide on gastro-esophageal reflux (GER) in dogs undergoing elective orthopedic surgery. Dogs were admitted to the study if they were healthy, and had no history of vomiting or dysphagia. Dogs were fasted for an average of 18.2 ± 4.3 (mean ± SD) hours prior to induction of anesthesia. Anesthesia in all dogs included acepromazine, morphine, thiopental and isoflurane in oxygen. By random allocation, half the dogs received metoclopramide (M) as an IV bolus (0.4 mg kg–1) and then infusion (0.3 mg kg–1hour–1), the others received equivalent volumes of saline (S). To measure esophageal pH a sensor-tipped catheter was placed with the tip 5–7 cm cranial to the lower esophageal sphincter, and connected to a computer for continual data collection. The pH of any fluid running from the mouth or nose was measured. Gastro-esophageal reflux was defined as a decrease in esophageal pH below 4 or an increase above 7.5. Fisher's Exact test was used to test significance of differences in incidence between groups. Separate multivariable logistic regression models were created for each outcome to assess the effects of risk factors on outcome. There were seven cases of GER in 16 dogs receiving M and 8/14 in those receiving S. There were no significant differences between M and S treated dogs in age, weight, duration of anesthesia and fasting, thiopental dose or incidence of vomiting. The administration of metoclopramide at this dose did not significantly reduce the incidence of GER in these anesthetized dogs.  相似文献

Meperidine has been shown to decrease lower esophageal sphincter tone in monkeys and people, to have little effect in cats, and to physically increase it in dogs. We hypothesized that administration of meperidine to dogs before anesthesia would decrease the probability of GER during the subsequent anesthetic. In this randomized, prospective clinical trial we aimed to determine the incidence of GER in dogs undergoing elective orthopedic surgery and receiving either meperidine or morphine prior to anesthesia. Dogs were admitted to the study, if they were healthy, with no history of vomiting or dysphagia. Dogs were fasted overnight. Dogs were received either morphine (0.66 mg kg–1 IM) or meperidine (8.8 mg kg–1 IM) with acepromazine. Anesthesia in all dogs included thiopental and isoflurane in oxygen. To measure esophageal pH a sensor-tipped catheter was placed with the tip 5–7 cm cranial to the lower esophageal sphincter, and connected to a computer for continual data collection. Dogs were observed for vomiting after pre-medication, and the pH of any fluid running from the mouth or nose during anesthesia was measured. Gastro-esophageal reflux was defined as a decrease in esophageal pH below 4 or an increase above 7.5 for greater than 15 seconds. One-way anova was used to test significance of differences between groups in parametric variables. Fisher's Exact test was used to test significance of differences in incidence between groups. In dogs receiving meperidine the incidence of vomiting was 0, and of GER was 31% (4/13), compared to 60% (6/10) and 60% (6/10), respectively in dogs receiving morphine. In this preliminary study, the administration of pre-anesthetic meperidine was associated with a 29% reduction in the absolute risk of GER compared to morphine.  相似文献

ObjectiveTo evaluate the effect of preanesthetic, intravenous (IV) amino acids on body temperature of anesthetized healthy dogs.Study designRandomized, experimental, crossover study.AnimalsEight mixed-breed dogs approximately 2 years of age weighing 20.7 ± 2.1 kg.MethodsDogs received 10% amino acid solution (AA) or 0.9% saline (SA) IV at 5 mL kg−1 over 60 minutes. Body temperature (BT) was recorded at 5 minute intervals during infusions. Dogs were then anesthetized with sevoflurane for 90 minutes. BT was recorded at 5 minute intervals during anesthesia. Jugular blood samples were analyzed for pH, glucose, creatinine, and lactate concentrations at baseline, after infusion, after anesthesia and after 24 hours.ResultsBT at conclusion of infusion decreased -0.34 ± 0.42 °C in group AA and -0.40 ± 0.38 °C in group SA and was not different between groups (p = 0.072). BT decreased 2.72 ± 0.37 °C in group AA and 2.88 ± 0.26 °C in group SA after anesthesia and was different between groups (p < 0.05). Creatinine in group AA was increased immediately after infusion (p < 0.0001) and at 24 hours (p < 0.0001). There were no differences between groups for other parameters. Values for both groups were never outside the clinical reference ranges.Conclusions and clinical relevanceIn healthy dogs, preanesthetic IV infusion of amino acids attenuated heat loss compared to controls, however, the amount attenuated may not be clinically useful. Further studies are warranted to determine if nutrient-induced thermogenesis is beneficial to dogs undergoing anesthesia.  相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To determine the effect of morphine administered prior to anesthesia on the incidence of gastroesophageal reflux (GER) in dogs during the subsequent anesthetic episode. ANIMALS: 90 dogs (30 dogs/group). PROCEDURE: The randomized prospective clinical study included healthy dogs with no history of vomiting. Dogs were scheduled to undergo elective orthopedic surgery. Food was withheld for (mean+/-SD) 17.8+/-4.1 hours prior to induction of anesthesia. The anesthetic protocol included acepromazine maleate, thiopental, and isoflurane. Dogs were randomly selected to receive morphine at various dosages (0, 0.22, or 1.10 mg/kg, IM) concurrent with acepromazine administration prior to induction of anesthesia. A sensor-tipped catheter was used to measure esophageal pH, and GER was defined as a decrease in pH to < 4 or an increase to > 7.5. RESULTS: 40 dogs had acidic reflux, and 1 had biliary reflux. Proportions of dogs with GER were 8 of 30 (27%), 15 of 30 (50%), and 18 of 30 (60%) for morphine dosages of 0, 0.22, and 1.10 mg/kg, respectively. Mean duration of GER was 91.4+/-56.8 minutes. There was no significant association between GER and age, weight, vomiting after preanesthetic medication, administration of antimicrobials, or start of surgery. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Most healthy dogs vomit after a large dose of morphine, but vomiting does not increase the likelihood of GER during the subsequent anesthetic episode. Administration of morphine prior to anesthesia substantially increases the incidence of GER during the subsequent anesthetic episode.  相似文献

ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of medetomidine on plasma glucose and insulin concentrations in dogs with insulinoma and in healthy dogs undergoing anesthesia and surgery.AnimalsTwenty–five dogs with insulinoma and 26 healthy dogs.MethodsIn dogs with insulinoma, medetomidine (5 μg kg?1) was randomly included (n = 12) or omitted (n = 13) from the pre–anesthetic medication protocol, which typically contained an opioid and an anticholinergic. Healthy dogs received medetomidine (5 μg kg?1; n = 13) or acepromazine (0.04 mg kg?1; n = 13) plus an opioid (morphine 0.5 mg kg?1) and an anticholinergic (atropine 0.04 mg kg?1) as pre–anesthetic medications. Pre–anesthetic medications were given intramuscularly. Plasma glucose and insulin concentrations were measured before (sample 1) and 30 minutes after pre–anesthetic medication (sample 2), and at the end of surgery in dogs with insulinoma or at 2 hours of anesthesia in healthy dogs (sample 3). Glucose requirement to maintain intra–operative normoglycemia in dogs with insulinoma was quantified and compared. Data were analyzed with anova and Bonferroni post–test, t–tests or chi–square tests as appropriate with p < 0.05 considered significant. Data are shown as mean ± SD.ResultsMedetomidine significantly decreased plasma insulin concentrations and increased plasma glucose concentrations in healthy dogs and those with insulinoma. These variables did not change significantly in the dogs not receiving medetomidine. In the dogs with insulinoma, intra–operative glucose administration rate was significantly less in the animals that received medetomidine compared to those that did not.ConclusionsPre–anesthetic administration of medetomidine significantly suppressed insulin secretion and increased plasma glucose concentration in dogs with insulinoma and in healthy dogs undergoing anesthesia and surgery.Clinical relevanceThese findings support the judicious use of medetomidine at low doses as an adjunct to the anesthetic management of dogs with insulinoma.  相似文献

ObjectiveTo compare a towel under, a warm water pad under or a forced warm air blanket over dogs as techniques to reduce heat loss during a standardized anesthetic.Study designProspective, randomized, crossover study.AnimalsEight, healthy, mixed breed dogs weighing 16.3–19.6 kg.MethodsDogs were anesthetized four times for 90 minutes. Dogs were placed on a steel table (treatment TA), with a cotton towel (treatment TO) or a circulating warm water pad (treatment WP) between the dog and the table, or with, a towel under the dog and covered with a forced warm air blanket (treatment WAB). Rectal temperature (RT) was recorded at 5 minute intervals. Changes in temperature (ΔRT) were calculated as the RT at a given point subtracted from the RT before anesthesia (baseline) and compared over time.ResultsAfter 90 minutes of anesthesia, the ΔRT was 3.42 °C ± 0.29 for TA, 2.78 °C ± 0.43 for TO, 1.98 °C ± 0.29 for WP, and 0.91 °C ± 0.27 for WAB. Significant differences in ΔRT occurred between TA and WAB at 20 minutes (0.94 °C ± 0.42, p = 0.0206), between TO and WAB at 30 minutes (1.16 °C ± 0.62, p = 0.0063), between WP and WAB at 50 minutes (0.96 °C ± 0.98, p = 0.0249), between TA and WP at 35 minutes (1.19 °C ± 0.54, p = 0.0091), between TO and WP at 70 minutes (1.12 °C ± 0.56, p = 0.0248), and between TA and TO at 75 minutes (0.96 °C ± 0.62, p = 0.0313). These differences in ΔRT between each treatment persisted from the times indicated until the end of the anesthesia.Conclusion and clinical relevanceDuring anesthesia, forced warm air blankets were superior to other methods tested for limiting heat loss. An efficient heat loss technique should be used for anesthesia longer than 20 minutes duration in medium sized dogs.  相似文献

Esophagitis and esophageal strictures are important causes of esophageal disease in dogs and cats. Clinical suspicion is created when the clinician recognizes the clinical signs suggestive of esophageal disease and accounts for historical information and physical examination findings. Once suspected, the diagnosis of esophagitis and esophageal strictures is a fairly simple one in most cases. Although the benefit of diminishing secretion of gastric acid in patients with esophagitis is unquestioned, other questions regarding adjunctive medical treatments, such as sucralfate and glucocorticoids for dogs and cats with esophagitis, have not been answered through appropriate clinical studies. Esophageal strictures are readily treated with balloon dilation or esophageal bougienage, and clients can expect most patients to become functional, although dietary change may be necessary.  相似文献

ObjectiveTo evaluate anesthetic conditions and postoperative analgesia with the use of intraoperative constant rate infusions (CRIs) of fentanyl–lidocaine or fentanyl–ketamine in dogs undergoing thoracolumbar hemilaminectomy.Study designProspective, randomized, blinded, clinical study.AnimalsA total of 32 client-owned dogs.MethodsDogs were premedicated with fentanyl (5 μg kg–1) administered intravenously (IV), anesthesia was induced with IV alfaxalone and maintained with isoflurane. Fentanyl (0.083 μg kg–1 minute–1) was infused IV with either ketamine (0.5 mg kg–1; then 40 μg kg–1 minute–1; group KF) or lidocaine (2 mg kg–1; then 200 μg kg–1 minute–1; group LF) assigned randomly. Heart rate, noninvasive arterial pressures, respiratory rate, esophageal temperature, end-tidal partial pressure of carbon dioxide and isoflurane concentration were recorded throughout anesthesia. Maintenance of anesthesia, recovery and postoperative pain (Glasgow Composite Pain Scale) were scored. Cardiopulmonary data were analyzed using a two-way anova with repeated measures, demographics of the two groups with a t test, and scores with Mann–Whitney U test, with p < 0.05.ResultsAll dogs recovered from anesthesia without complications. No significant difference was found between groups for cardiopulmonary variables, total anesthesia time, sedation score and requirement for postoperative sedation or for rescue analgesia. Anesthetic maintenance score was of lower quality in KF than in LF [median (interquartile range): 0 (0–0.5) versus 0 (0–0); p = 0.032)], but still considered ideal. Recovery score was higher and indicative of less sedation in LF than in KF [1 (1–1.5) versus 0.5 (0–1); p < 0.0001]. Pain score was higher in KF than in LF [2 (1–3) versus 1 (1–2); p = 0.0009].Conclusions and clinical relevanceBoth CRIs of KF and LF provided adequate anesthetic conditions in dogs undergoing thoracolumbar hemilaminectomy. Based on requirement for rescue analgesia, postoperative analgesia was adequate in both groups.  相似文献

ObjectiveThe goal of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of maropitant (Cerenia®) in preventing vomiting after premedication with hydromorphone.Study designRandomized, blinded, prospective clinical study.AnimalsEighteen dogs ASA I/II admitted for elective orthopedic surgical procedures. The dogs were a mixed population of males and females, purebreds and mixed breeds, 1.0–10.2 years of age, weighing 3–49.5 kg.MethodsDogs were admitted to the study if they were greater than 1 year of age, healthy and scheduled to undergo elective orthopedic surgery. Dogs were randomly selected to receive one of two treatments administered by subcutaneous injection. Group M received 1.0 mg kg?1 of maropitant, Group S received 0.1 mL kg?1 of saline 1 hour prior to anesthesia premedication. Dogs were premedicated with 0.1 mg kg?1 of hydromorphone intramuscularly. A blinded observer documented the presence of vomiting, retching and/or signs of nausea for 30 minutes after premedication.ResultsAll dogs in S vomited (6/9), retched (1/9) or displayed signs of nausea (2/9). None (0/9) of the dogs in M vomited, retched or displayed signs of nausea. Dogs in M had significantly fewer incidences of vomiting (p = 0.0090), vomiting and retching (p = 0.0023) and vomiting, retching and nausea (p < 0.0001) when compared to S.Conclusion and clinical relevanceMaropitant prevents vomiting, retching and nausea associated with intramuscular hydromorphone administration in dogs.  相似文献

ObjectiveTo evaluate arterial oxygenation during the first 4 postoperative hours in dogs administered different fractions of inspired oxygen (FiO2) during general anesthesia with mechanical ventilation.Study designProspective, randomized clinical trial.AnimalsA total of 20 healthy female dogs, weighing >15 kg and body condition scores 3–7/9, admitted for ovariohysterectomy.MethodsDogs were randomized to breathe an FiO2 >0.9 or 0.4 during isoflurane anesthesia with intermittent positive pressure ventilation. The intraoperative PaO2:FiO2 ratio was recorded during closure of the linea alba. Arterial blood was obtained 5, 60 and 240 minutes after extubation for measurement of PaO2 and PaCO2 (FiO2 = 0.21). Demographic characteristics, duration of anesthesia, PaO2:FiO2 ratio and anesthetic agents were compared between groups with Wilcoxon tests. The postoperative PaO2, PaCO2, rectal temperature, a visual sedation score and events of hypoxemia (PaO2 < 80 mmHg) were compared between groups with mixed-effects models or generalized linear mixed models.ResultsGroups were indistinguishable by demographic characteristics, duration of anesthesia, anesthetic agents administered and intraoperative PaO2:FiO2 ratio (all p > 0.08). Postoperative PaO2, PaCO2, rectal temperature or sedation score were not different between groups (all p > 0.07). During the first 4 postoperative hours, hypoxemia occurred in three and seven dogs that breathed FiO2 >0.9 or 0.4 during anesthesia, respectively (p = 0.04).Conclusions and clinical relevanceThe results identified no advantage to decreasing FiO2 to 0.4 during anesthesia with mechanical ventilation with respect to postoperative oxygenation. Moreover, the incidence of hypoxemia in the first 4 hours after anesthesia was higher in these dogs than in dogs breathing FiO2 >0.9.  相似文献

ObjectiveTo evaluate the efficacy of combined femoral and sciatic nerve blocks as an alternative to epidural anesthesia and analgesia in dogs undergoing stifle surgery under general anesthesia.Study designProspective, blinded, randomized, clinical comparison.AnimalsTwenty dogs weighing 37 ± 11 (mean ± SD) kg, aged 3 (1–8) [median (minimum–maximum)] years undergoing elective unilateral tibial-plateau leveling osteotomy.MethodsDogs were assigned randomly to receive either epidural anesthesia (bupivacaine 0.5%, 0.5 mg kg?1 + morphine 0.1%, 0.1 mg kg?1, in 0.2 mL kg?1; EPID) or femoral and sciatic nerve blocks (Bupivacaine 0.5%, 0.1 mL kg?1, was administered at each site; F + S) guided by electrolocation. All patients received a standard general anesthesia technique. Pain and sedation were scored (on scales of 0–10 and 0–3, respectively) pre-operatively, at extubation, and at 1, 4 and then every 4 hours thereafter up to 24 hours. Postoperatively, hydromorphone was administered to any patient with a pain score of >5 or whenever the blinded caregiver determined that more hydromorphone was necessary. Intraoperative heart rate (HR), mean arterial pressure (MAP), end tidal isoflurane (FE′ISO), body temperature, post-operative pain scores, time to first hydromorphone dose after surgery, time to first feeding, time to first drinking, time to first urination, time to first ambulation (walk on a lead) and cumulative dose of hydromorphone were recorded.ResultsIntra-operatively, FE′ISO and MAP were significantly lower in the EPID group (p = 0.05 and p = 0.04, respectively). Postoperatively, the cumulative hydromorphone consumption (p = 0.04) and the incidence of urinary retention (p = 0.03) were higher in the EPID group.Conclusion and clinical relevance F + S is a practical alternative to EPID that produces less urine retention and reduces opioid consumption in the 24 hours after surgery. EPID might be associated with a lower isoflurane requirement and lower systemic blood pressure.  相似文献

ObjectiveTo determine the incidence of anesthesia patient safety incidents at a university teaching hospital, develop interventions to address the most common incidents, and determine the effectiveness of these interventions.Study designPre-post intervention observational.AnimalsFour thousand, one hundred forty dogs and cats anesthetized by the anesthesia service.MethodsThe study was divided into two 11.5 month periods. During each period, incidents were logged (e.g. closed adjustable pressure limiting (APL) valve, esophageal intubation, and medication error). At the end of the first period, four countermeasures were incorporated into the service’s protocols: 1) prior to any drug injection, the individual would read out aloud the drug name, patient name, and route of administration; 2) use of a uniquely colored occlusive wrap over arterial catheters; 3) a check box on the anesthesia record labeled “Technician Confirmed Intubation”; 4) a check box on the anesthesia record labeled “Technician Checked OR (operating room)”. The number of patient safety incidents during period 1 and period 2 were compared using Fisher’s Exact Test.ResultsDuring Period 1, there were 74 incidents documented in 2028 patients (3.6%) including 25 medication errors, 20 closed APL valves, and 16 of esophageal intubation. During Period 2, there were 30 incidents documented in 2112 patients (1.4%) including 14 medication errors, 5 closed APL valves, and 4 of esophageal intubation. The proportion of events during Period 2 was significantly smaller than during Period 1 (p < 0.0001).Conclusions and Clinical relevanceImplementation of four simple interventions was associated with a significant decrease in the number of incidents.  相似文献
