Antagonism of xylazine sedation by 4-aminopyridine and yohimbine in cattle   总被引：2，自引：0，他引：2  
Twenty-four crossbred steers (4 groups of 6 steers each) were injected IM with a standard dosage range of xylazine hydrochloride (0.2 to 0.3 mg/kg of body weight). When the steers were maximally sedated, group I (control group) were given isotonic saline solution (1 ml, IV), group II were given 4-aminopyridine (4-AP, 0.3 mg/kg) IV, group III were given yohimbine hydrochloride (0.125 mg/kg) IV, and group IV were given 4-AP (0.3 mg/kg) plus yohimbine hydrochloride (0.125 mg/kg) IV. The 4-AP decreased mean standing time (MST; time until animal could stand unaided) from 94.3 minutes (control) to 13.4 minutes. Yohimbine decreased MST to 27 minutes. The combination of 4-AP + yohimbine decreased MST to 7.4 minutes. Mean total recovery time (MTRT; time from xylazine injection until normal behavior, including eating and drinking) was not significantly (P = greater than 0.05) decreased from control values by any of the antagonists tested. The combination of 4-AP + yohimbine decreased MST in animals given a 3X overdose of xylazine (0.6 mg/kg) from 124 minutes (control) to 30.3 min. The MTRT was not significantly (P greater than 0.05) decreased from control values. Two animals given a 5X overdose of xylazine (1 mg/kg) and then given 4-AP + yohimbine had a MST of 32.5 minutes and a MTRT of 3.7 hours. The combination of 4-AP + yohimbine produced marked antagonism of xylazine sedation in cattle. The combination of antagonists may prove to be useful for the arousal of animals sedated with xylazine alone or with a combination of sedatives including xylazine.  相似文献

Groups of atropinized dogs (6 dogs/group) were sedated with xylazine (2.2 mg/kg of body weight, IM). At recumbency, the dogs were given IV saline solution (control groups), yohimbine (0.05, 0.1, and 0.2 mg/kg), 4-aminopyridine (4-AP; 0.3, 0.6, and 0.9 mg/kg), doxapram (0.5, 1.0, 2.0, and 4.0 mg/kg), or the smallest dose of these antagonists in dual combinations or in triple combination. Two additional groups were sedated with an overdose of xylazine (11 mg/kg, IM). At recumbency, 1 of these groups was given saline solution IV and the other group was given yohimbine IV (0.4 mg/kg) as the antagonist. With the 2.2 mg/kg dose of xylazine, control mean arousal time (MAT) and mean walk time (MWT) were 15.5 minutes and 24.8 minutes, respectively. These values were decreased by the individual antagonists to 0.5 to 2.5 minutes and 0.9 to 7.4 minutes, respectively. Approximate equipotent doses of antagonists (mg/kg) were: yohimbine, 0.2; 4-AP, 0.6; and doxapram, 0.5. Relapses did not occur after yohimbine or 4-AP. With doxapram, muscle tremors and spasms, abnormal postures, or aggressive behavior occurred in several dogs and several dogs had partial or complete relapses. The small doses of individual antagonists were synergistic with regard to MAT, MWT, and duration of residual sedation, but the various combinations of antagonists were not more effective in these regards than were larger doses of the single antagonists. With the overdose of xylazine, control MAT and MWT were 41.5 minutes and 144.5 minutes, respectively. Yohimbine decreased these values to 2.2 minutes and 2.5 minutes, respectively. Relapses did not occur.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

Groups of atropinized dogs (6 dogs/group) were sedated, using xylazine HCl (2.2 mg/kg of body weight, IM) or acepromazine maleate (0.25 mg/kg, IM), and were anesthetized to loss of pedal reflexes, using thiopental, IV. The dogs were given 1 of the following test antagonists, IV: saline solution (2 ml; control group), 4-aminopyridine (4-AP; 0.5 mg/kg), yohimbine (0.4 mg/kg), doxapram (5.0 mg/kg), or dual combinations of the latter 3 substances in the same doses as used for each agent. In xylazine-treated dogs, the mean dosage of thiopental required to induce anesthesia was 4.8 mg/kg. Control mean arousal time (MAT) and walk time (MWT) were 37.1 minutes and 53.8 minutes, respectively. These values were decreased to less than 2 minutes and less than 3 minutes, respectively, by yohimbine, 4-AP + yohimbine, and doxapram + yohimbine. With doxapram and with 4-AP + doxapram, MAT was less than 2 minutes and MWT was less than 8 minutes. In acepromazine-treated dogs, the mean dosage of thiopental required for anesthesia was 15.0 mg/kg. Control MAT and MWT were 20.7 minutes and 36.5 minutes, respectively. These values were decreased to 8.1 minutes and 18.1 minutes, respectively, by doxapram, and to 3.5 minutes and 19.9 minutes, respectively, by doxapram + yohimbine. Doxapram, 4-AP + doxapram, and doxapram + yohimbine caused periodic extensor rigidity before and during arousal. This rigidity was accompanied by opisthotonos in 2 dogs of the doxapram + yohimbine group and may have been mild tonic seizures.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

For each of 3 separate evaluations, 6 fasted llamas (Lama glama) were sedated with xylazine (1.1 mg/kg of body weight, IV) and then 15 minutes later were given normal saline solution (5.0 ml, IV; control values), doxapram (2.2 mg/kg, IV), or 4-amino-pyridine (0.3 mg/kg, IV) and yohimbine (0.125 mg/kg, IV). After administration of 4-aminopyridine and yohimbine, the llamas stood in a mean of 11 minutes and resumed eating in a mean of 34 minutes; both means were significantly less (P less than 0.05) than control values (46 minutes and 67 minutes, respectively). Doxapram induced muscle fasciculations, and (compared with control values) did not significantly decrease the time to standing (41 minutes) or the time until the animals resumed eating (68 minutes). Yohimbine and 4-aminopyridine in combination rapidly antagonized xylazine-induced sedation in llamas, whereas doxapram was ineffective as an antagonist of xylazine-induced sedation.  相似文献

Trials were conducted to test the ability of yohimbine, 4-aminopyridine and doxapram given by intravenous injection to antagonise xylazine sedation in red deer (Cervus elaphus). Yohimbine produced the best and most consistent result. The mean time taken for 34 animals to stand spontaneously after receiving yohimbine (0.2 to 0.25 mg/kg) was 2 minutes 25 seconds and this occurred, on average, 33 minutes after the initial doze of xylazine. Control deer took 67 and 104 minutes on average to stand after receiving intravenous (0.64–0.96 mg/kg) and intramuscular (1.0–1.5 mg/kg) injections of xylazine respectively. Two deer which received an overdose of xylazine (4 mg/kg) recovered 3 and 9 minutes respectively after receiving yohimbine. Two deer given a high intravenous dose of yohimbine (1.0 mg/kg) became mildly nervous and anxious, but returned to normal within an hour. 4-aminopyridine (0.3 mg/kg) alone produced some arousal from xylazine sedation (0.6–1.0 mg/kg) but was inconsistent. In combination with yohimbine (0.125 mg/kg) it produced rapid recovery in two deer but caused convulsions in two other deer.

Doxapram (1 mg/kg) produced respiratory stimulation and some arousal from xylazine sedation (0.6–1.0 mg/kg) in the majority of deer but the effect was transitory. Animals relapsed into moderate sedation and recumbency within 10 minutes and required vigorous stimulation to arouse them again.

Yohimbine, administered by intravenous injection at a dose rate of 0.2 to 0.25 mg/kg, appears to be a safe and reliable drug for the reversal of xylazine sedation in deer.  相似文献

In 2 separate experiments, groups of atropinized cats (6 cats/group) were given acepromazine (0.25 mg/kg of body weight) or xylazine (2.2 mg/kg) IM and anesthetized with pentobarbital. The mean dose of pentobarbital was decreased approximately 36% by acepromazine, and approximately 80% by xylazine, compared with published doses. Anesthetized cats were given IV saline solution (control groups) or were given the antagonists 4-aminopyridine (4-AP; 0.5 mg/kg), yohimbine (0.4 mg/kg), or 4-AP + yohimbine (0.5 mg/kg and 0.4 mg/kg, respectively). In acepromazine-treated cats, 4-AP + yohimbine was the most effective antagonist; arousal and walking occurred in an average of 10.4 minutes and 91.7 minutes, respectively. Yohimbine enhanced the antagonistic effects of 4-AP. In xylazine-treated cats, yohimbine was an effective antagonist; arousal and walking occurred in an average of 2.8 minutes and 12.8 minutes, respectively. Yohimbine did not enhance the antagonistic effects of 4-AP. Mean respiratory rates were decreased by acepromazine, but were increased by xylazine. Thus, respiratory rate depression by pentobarbital was not as marked with xylazine as it was with acepromazine. Changes in mean heart rate were not remarkable with either sedative, and cardiac irregularities were not palpated or auscultated. In healthy cats, the duration of pentobarbital anesthesia can be controlled by 4-AP + yohimbine (acepromazine-pretreated cats) or by yohimbine alone (xylazine-pretreated cats).  相似文献

Groups of fentanyl-droperidol-pentobarbital-anesthetized dogs (n = 6 dogs/group) were given IV saline solution (control group), graded doses of naloxone (0.01, 0.1, 1.0, 10.0 mg/kg) or fixed doses of 4-aminopyridine (0.5 mg/kg), yohimbine (0.4 mg/kg), or doxapram (5.0 mg/kg) alone or in combination with a fixed dose of naloxone (1.0 mg/kg). The purpose was to determine which drug or drug combination would produce arousal most quickly without producing obvious undesirable side effects. Control group mean arousal time, mean walk time and mean duration of postarousal sedation were 66.1 minutes, 112.4 minutes and 5.6 hours, respectively. Naloxone (1.0 mg/kg) decreased mean arousal time to 10.8 minutes without significantly decreasing mean walk time or mean duration of postarousal sedation. The combination of naloxone + doxapram decreased mean arousal time and mean walk time to 1.0 minute and 57.1 minutes, respectively, without decreasing mean duration of postarousal sedation. In all groups, emergence from anesthesia was smooth. Relapses or undesirable side effects were not observed. Naloxone + doxapram is superior to naloxone alone for arousal of fentanyl-droperidol-pentobarbital-anesthetized dogs.  相似文献

Effect of yohimbine on xylazine-induced immobilization in white-tailed deer   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  
Two groups of white-tailed deer were given IM injections of xylazine with a projectile syringe. Deer in one of the groups served as controls and did not receive any treatments other than xylazine. Deer in the other group were given yohimbine IV at various times (15 to 171 minutes) to evaluate its effect on xylazine-induced immobilization. In 5 control deer given 3.7 +/- 1.2 mg of xylazine/kg (mean +/- SD), onset of recumbency was 13 +/- 2 minutes and time to standing was 268 +/- 76 minutes. In 20 principal deer given 2.8 +/- 1.0 mg of xylazine/kg, onset of recumbency was 8 +/- 7 minutes, time to sitting after giving yohimbine was 3 +/- 4 minutes in 18 of the deer, and time to standing after giving yohimbine was 4 +/- 5 minutes in 19 of the deer. Most of these deer were still moderately sedated 30 minutes after injection of yohimbine, but none of them became reimmobilized or as deeply sedated as before the injection of yohimbine. Yohimbine also reversed the bradycardia and respiratory depression induced by xylazine.  相似文献

We compared the ability of 3 alpha 2-adrenoreceptor antagonists, idazoxan (0.05 mg/kg), tolazoline (2 mg/kg), and yohimbine (0.2 mg/kg) to reverse xylazine (0.3 mg/kg)-induced respiratory changes and CNS depression in 6 ewes. Once weekly, each ewe was given a random IV treatment of xylazine, followed in 5 minutes by either an antagonist or 0.9% NaCl solution. Xylazine alone caused recumbency for 54.2 +/- 5.3 minutes (mean +/- SEM). Xylazine also increased respiratory rate and decreased PaCO2 for at least 45 minutes, but did not significantly change arterial pH or PaCO2. Idazoxan and tolazoline were equally effective in reversing the respiratory actions of xylazine; however, yohimbine was less effective in reducing the respiratory rate and was ineffective in antagonizing the decreased PaO2. Idazoxan and tolazoline decreased the duration of xylazine-induced recumbency to 6.3 +/- 0.6 and 9.5 +/- 2.3 minutes, respectively, whereas yohimbine did not significantly change this effect of xylazine. Thus, at the dosages studied, idazoxan and tolazoline appeared to be more effective than yohimbine in reversing the respiratory and CNS depressant actions of xylazine in sheep.  相似文献

Three doses of an alpha 2-adrenoreceptor antagonist, atipamezole, were administered to reverse xylazine-induced sedation, bradycardia, and ruminal atony in calves. Once a week for 4 weeks, each of 6 calves was administered IV 1 treatment of: 0.3 mg of xylazine/kg of body weight, followed in 10 minutes by 1 ml of 0.9% NaCl; 0.3 mg of xylazine/kg, followed in 10 minutes by 3 micrograms of atipamezole/kg; 0.3 mg of xylazine/kg, followed in 10 minutes by 10 micrograms of atipamezole/kg; or 0.3 mg of xylazine/kg, followed in 10 minutes by 30 micrograms of atipamezole/kg. The order of the 4 treatments in each calf was selected at random. Xylazine alone caused lateral recumbency for 33.6 +/- 7.1 minutes (mean +/- SEM). Atipamezole administered at dosages of 3, 10, and 30 micrograms/kg shortened xylazine-induced lateral recumbency to 20.5 +/- 3.0, 10.2 +/- 0.2, and 9.3 +/- 0.5 minutes, respectively. Calves given xylazine alone stood at greater than 60 minutes after the onset of recumbency. Atipamezole given at 3, 10, and 30 micrograms/kg shortened the time from onset of lateral recumbency to standing to 40.2 +/- 6.9, 12.8 +/- 1.1, and 10.0 +/- 0.7 minutes, respectively. Drowsiness was found in calves given the lowest dosage of atipamezole (3 micrograms/kg) after the calves stood. Atipamezole given at dosages of 10 and 30 micrograms/kg reversed xylazine-induced ruminal atony in a dose-dependent manner. In addition, 30 micrograms of atipamezole/kg reversed xylazine-induced bradycardia, but the lower dosages of this antagonist did not. Results indicated that 30 micrograms of atipamezole/kg should be a useful antidote for xylazine overdose in cattle.  相似文献

Twenty-two juvenile African elephants were given a combination of xylazine (mean +/- SD = 0.14 +/- 0.03 mg/kg of body weight) and ketamine (1.14 +/- 0.21 mg/kg) as a single IM injection; one elephant was immobilized twice, 77 days apart. After injection, 14 elephants were immobilized, 4 were sedated deeply, 2 were sedated moderately, and 2 were sedated minimally. Immobilized elephants had a mean immobilization time of 11.6 +/- 6.9 minutes. At the conclusion of a variety of clinical procedures, 12 of the 14 elephants immobilized with a single dose combination of xylazine and ketamine were given yohimbine (0.13 +/- 0.03 mg/kg) IV, and the remaining 2 elephants were allowed to recover spontaneously; the elephants given yohimbine had a mean standing time of 2.4 +/- 1.1 minutes. Of the 8 sedated elephants, 5 were given an additional dose of combined xylazine (0.08 +/- 0.03 mg/kg), and ketamine (0.61 +/- 0.19 mg/kg) IM, and 1 elephant was given ketamine (0.47 mg/kg) IV. After injection, 4 of the 8 elephants were recumbent laterally within 17 minutes and 2 remained standing, under deep sedation. Seven of the 8 elephants were given yohimbine (0.13 +/- 0.03 mg/kg) IV; all were ambulatory in 2 minutes. Results indicated that yohimbine may be useful in controlling duration of xylazine-ketamine sedation and immobilization in juvenile African elephants.  相似文献

We compared the ability of tolazoline and yohimbine to antagonize xylazine-induced central nervous system depression, bradycardia, and tachypnea in 9 ewes and 5 rams. Once a week for 3 weeks, each sheep received one IV treatment of 0.4 mg xylazine/kg, 0.4 mg xylazine/kg followed in 10 minutes by 2 mg tolazoline/kg, or 0.4 mg xylazine/kg followed in 10 minutes by 0.2 mg yohimbine/kg. The order of the 3 treatments in each sheep was randomized. Xylazine alone caused recumbency for 41.0 +/- 3.7 minutes (mean +/- SEM). Tolazoline and yohimbine shortened the xylazine-induced recumbency to 12.1 +/- 0.9 minutes and 18.1 +/- 1.5 minutes, respectively. Sheep given xylazine alone had head droop for 34.0 +/- 5.4 minutes after rising. Head drooping of sheep given tolazoline or yohimbine was reduced to 10.1 +/- 1.7 minutes and 14.2 +/- 1.7 minutes, respectively. Both tolazoline and yohimbine reversed the bradycardia and tachypnea that followed xylazine administration. No statistical differences in the rate and magnitude of the reversal were observed between the 2 drugs.  相似文献

Serum insulin and plasma glucose concentrations were determined in 8 mares. Four IV treatments were studied: xylazine (1.1 mg/kg of body weight); yohimbine (0.125 mg/kg); yohimbine (0.125 mg/kg) followed 5 minutes later by xylazine (1.1 mg/kg); and 5 ml of isotonic saline solution as a control. Blood samples were collected before (time 0) and at 5, 15, 30, 60, 120, and 180 minutes after drug administration. Serum insulin concentration decreased and plasma glucose concentration increased in mares given xylazine. Plasma glucose concentration was unchanged in control mares and in mares given yohimbine or yohimbine followed by xylazine. Serum insulin concentration was unchanged in mares given saline solution, but transiently increased in mares given yohimbine alone. Treatment with yohimbine prevented xylazine-induced hypoinsulinemia and hyperglycemia.  相似文献

Effects of saline solution (groups 1, 2, and 3), xylazine (2.2 mg/kg of body weight, groups 4 and 5), acepromazine (0.1 mg/kg, groups 6 and 7), diazepam (1.0 mg/kg, groups 8 and 9), morphine (1.0 mg/kg, groups 10 and 11), or fentanyl-droperidol (0.055 ml/kg, groups 12 and 13), IM were compared in groups of atropinized dogs. Treated dogs were anesthetized to stage III, plane 2 with pentobarbital, IV. After stabilization of anesthesia, the dogs were given IV 0.5 mg of 4-aminopyridine (4-AP)/kg + 0.25 mg of yohimbine/kg (groups 2, 5, 7, and 9), or 4-AP + yohimbine + 0.04 mg of naloxone/kg (groups 3, 11, and 13). Groups 1, 4, 6, 8, 10, and 12 were given saline solution instead of test antagonists. Required dosage of pentobarbital, arousal and walk times (measured from injection of antagonists), respiratory rate, and heart rate were measured. Emergence phenomena were recorded and graded as smooth, fairly smooth, smooth in some dogs to rough in other dogs, rough, or very rough. In group 1 dogs, mean arousal time (MAT) was 279.5 minutes, mean walk time (MWT) was 583.3 minutes, and emergence was rough. In groups 4, 6, 8, 10, and 12, MAT was decreased by the sedatives to the range of 52 to 115.3 minutes and MWT was decreased to the range of 82.3 to 188.5 minutes. Emergence was smooth (groups 4 and 6), fairly smooth (groups 10 and 12), or smooth to rough (group 8).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effects of intranasal administration of midazolam and xylazine (with or without ketamine) and detomidine and their specific antagonists in parakeets. DESIGN: Prospective study. ANIMALS: 17 healthy adult Ring-necked Parakeets (Psittacula krameri) of both sexes (mean weight, 128.83+/-10.46 g [0.28+/-0.02 lb]). PROCEDURE: The dose of each drug or ketamine-drug combination administered intranasally that resulted in adequate sedation (ie, unrestrained dorsal recumbency maintained for >or=5 minutes) was determined; the onset of action, duration of dorsal recumbency, and duration of sedation associated with these treatments were evaluated. The efficacy of the reversal agents flumazenil, yohimbine, and atipamezole was also evaluated. RESULTS: In parakeets, intranasal administration of midazolam (7.3 mg/kg [3.32 mg/lb]) or detomidine (12 mg/kg [5.45 mg/lb]) caused adequate sedation within 2.7 and 3.5 minutes, respectively. Combinations of midazolam (3.65 mg/kg [1.66 mg/lb]) and xylazine (10 mg/kg [4.55 mg/lb]) with ketamine (40 to 50 mg/kg [18.2 to 22.7 mg/lb]) also achieved adequate sedation. Compared with detomidine, duration of dorsal recumbency was significantly longer with midazolam. Intranasal administration of flumazenil (0.13 mg/kg [0.06 mg/lb]) significantly decreased midazolam-associated recumbency time. Compared with the xylazineketamine combination, duration of dorsal recumbency was longer after midazolam-ketamine administration. Intranasal administration of flumazenil, yohimbine, or atipamezole significantly decreased the duration of sedation induced by midazolam, xylazine, or detomidine, respectively. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Intranasal administration of sedative drugs appears to be an acceptable method of drug delivery in Ring-necked Parakeets. Reversal agents are also effective when administered via this route.  相似文献

Four captive moose (Alces alces), 4 mule deer (Odocoileus hemionus), and 5 white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus) were immobilized with xylazine (0.63 to 1.29 mg/kg of body weight, IM). Mean induction times for the moose were 17 minutes and for the deer, 14 and 10 minutes, respectively. According to published data and past experience, the dosage of xylazine used would be expected to provide 115, 120, and 100 minutes of immobilization in captive moose, mule deer, and white-tailed deer, respectively. In the present study, maximal sedation of the moose and deer was reversed with successive injections (given IV) of yohimbine (0.15 mg/kg) and 4-aminopyridine (0.26 to 0.29 mg/kg). These produced sternal recumbency-to-arousal intervals of 1 to 15 minutes and recumbency-to-standing or walking intervals of 1 to 24 minutes. Relapses to recumbency were not observed. The injections of the reversal drugs produced marked increases in respiratory rate and heart in the moose and deer, without occurrence of muscle tremors or convulsions. The administrations of yohimbine and 4-aminopyridine markedly enhanced the speed of recovery from xylazine-induced immobilization in moose and deer.  相似文献

Evaluation of Three Midazolam-Xylazine Mixtures Preliminary Trials in Dogs   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  
The depressant effects of midazolam and xylazine on the central nervous system (CNS) were evaluated in 12 dogs. Xylazine was administered to six dogs (1.1 mg/kg intravenously [IV]) followed in 5 minutes by midazolam (1.0 mg/kg intramuscularly [IM]). In a second group of six dogs, xylazine (2.2 mg/kg IM) was followed in 5 minutes by midazolam (1.0 mg/kg IV). Both drug regimens induced rapid and profound sedation or anesthesia. Duration of action varied with the doses and routes of administration. Dogs given the high dose of xylazine IM had an arousal time of 95.4 +/- 8.9 minutes and a walking time of 155.4 +/- 8.8 minutes. These values exceeded the IV xylazine values threefold. Partial reversal of CNS depression was accomplished with either a benzodiazepine antagonist (flumazenil) or an alpha-2 antagonist (yohimbine). In a separate trial, a mixture of xylazine (0.55 mg/kg), midazolam (1.0 mg/kg), and butorphanol (0.1 mg/kg) with and without glycopyrrolate was evaluated in eight dogs. As with the xylazine-midazolam combinations, the CNS depressant effect of this mixture was clinically indistinguishable from anesthesia achieved with other rapid-acting injectable agents. Clinical signs of CNS depression were readily and completely antagonized by the simultaneous injection of flumazenil and yohimbine.  相似文献

Thirty-six fasted, mixed horse breed geldings (6 groups of 6 animals each) were anesthetized with xylazine and ketamine, and when maximally sedated, were given 1 of the following antagonists: saline solution, 4-aminopyridine (4-AP), small-dose yohimbine, large-dose yohimbine, 4-AP plus low-dose yohimbine, or 4-AP plus high-dose yohimbine. Measured data included mean standing time (MST), heart rate, respiratory rate, rectal temperature, and mean total recovery time ( MTRT ). Emergence phenomena were also observed and recorded as smooth, fairly smooth, fairly rough, or rough. Groups given 4-AP alone, small-dose yohimbine alone, or large-dose yohimbine alone produced a significant (P less than 0.05) decrease in MST (9.9 +/- 1.6 minutes, 11.3 +/- 1.7 minutes, and 10.6 +/- 2.3 minutes, respectively) compared with that in the saline control group (24.3 +/- 9.2 minutes). The MTRT were not significantly (P greater than 0.05) different (47.2 +/- 10 minutes, 90.4 +/- 15.1 minutes, and 83.2 +/- 23 minutes, respectively) from control values (66.2 +/- 13.4 minutes). When the antagonists were combined, 4-AP plus small-dose yohimbine and 4-AP plus large-dose yohimbine produced significant (P less than 0.05) decreases (10.3 +/- 2 minutes and 8.3 +/- 2.6 minutes, respectively) in MST compared with that of saline controls. The MTRT was significantly longer in the combined antagonist group (4-AP + small-dose yohimbine--131.8 +/- 28.9 minutes; 4-AP + large-dose yohimbine--131.3 +/- 19.4 minutes) compared with that of control or any antagonist alone.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

Xylazine and tiletamine-zolazepam anesthesia in horses   总被引：4，自引：0，他引：4  
The cardiopulmonary and anesthetic effects of xylazine in combination with a 1:1 mixture of tiletamine and zolazepam were determined in 6 horses. Each horse was given xylazine IV or IM, as well as tiletamine-zolazepam IV on 4 randomized occasions. Anesthetics were administered at the rate of 1.1 mg of xylazine/kg of body weight, IV, 1.1 mg of tiletamine-zolazepam/kg, IV (treatment 1); 1.1 mg of xylazine/kg, IV, 1.65 mg of tiletamine-zolazepam/kg, IV (treatment 2); 1.1 mg of xylazine/kg, IV, 2.2 mg of tiletamine-zolazepam/kg, IV (treatment 3); and 2.2 mg of xylazine/kg, IM, 1.65 mg of tiletamine-zolazepam/kg, IV (treatment 4). Tiletamine-zolazepam doses were the sum of tiletamine plus zolazepam. Xylazine, when given IV, was given 5 minutes before tiletamine-zolazepam. Xylazine, when given IM, was given 10 minutes before tiletamine-zolazepam. Tiletamine-zolazepam induced recumbency in all horses. Duration of recumbency in group 1 was 31.9 +/- 7.2 (mean +/- 1 SD) minutes. Increasing the dosage of tiletamine-zolazepam (treatments 2 and 3) significantly (P less than 0.05) increased the duration of recumbency. Xylazine caused significant (P less than 0.05) decreases in heart rate and cardiac output and significant (P less than 0.05) increases in central venous pressure and mean pulmonary artery pressure 5 minutes after administration. Respiratory rate was decreased. Arterial blood pressures increased significantly (P less than 0.05) after xylazine was administered IV in treatments 1 and 3, but the increases were not significant in treatment 2. Xylazine administered IM caused significant (P less than 0.05) increases in central venous pressure and significant (P less than 0.05) decreases in cardiac output.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献
