ObjectiveTo evaluate the effects of the combination butorphanol, medetomidine and midazolam (BMM) and its reversibility in lions.Study designProspective clinical trial.AnimalsThirty free-ranging lions, 10 male and 20 female, weighing 81-210 kg.MethodsLions were immobilised with butorphanol mean 0.31 ± SD 0.034 mg kg?1, medetomidine 0.052 ± 0.006 mg kg?1, midazolam 0.21 ± 0.024 mg kg?1 and hyaluronidase 1250 IU administered intramuscularly with a dart gun. Upon recumbency, physiological parameters and anaesthetic depth were monitored 10-15 minutes after darting (T1) and repeated every 10 minutes for a further 30 minutes (T2, T3, T4). Arterial blood gas analyses were performed at T1 and T4. At the end of the procedure, 45-60 minutes after initial darting, immobilisation was reversed with naltrexone 0.68 ± 0.082 mg kg?1, atipamezole 0.26 ± 0.031 mg kg?1, and flumazenil 0.0032 ± 0.0007 mg kg?1 administered intravenously and subcutaneously.ResultsThe BMM combination rapidly induced immobilisation and lateral recumbency was reached within 7.25 ± 2.3 minutes. Median induction score [scored 1 (excellent) to 4 (poor)] was 1.4 (range 1-2). Cardio-respiratory parameters were stable. Heart rate varied from 32 to 72 beats per minute, respiratory rate from 14 to 32 breaths minute?1 and rectal temperature from 36.6 to 40.3 °C. No sudden arousals were observed. Arterial blood gas analyses revealed a mean pH of 7.33, PaCO2 of 33 mmHg and PaO2 of 87 mmHg. Mild to moderate hypoxemia was seen in four lions. Recovery was smooth and lions were walking within 4.4 ± 4.25 minutes. Median recovery score [scored 1 (excellent) to 4 (poor)] was 1.3 (range 1-2).Conclusion and clinical relevanceThe drug combination proved to be effective in immobilising free-ranging healthy lions of both sexes with minimal cardio-respiratory changes.  相似文献

ObjectiveTo investigate effects of vatinoxan in dogs, when administered as intravenous (IV) premedication with medetomidine and butorphanol before anaesthesia for surgical castration.Study designA randomized, controlled, blinded, clinical trial.AnimalsA total of 28 client-owned dogs.MethodsDogs were premedicated with medetomidine (0.125 mg m?2) and butorphanol (0.2 mg kg?1) (group MB; n = 14), or medetomidine (0.25 mg m?2), butorphanol (0.2 mg kg?1) and vatinoxan (5 mg m?2) (group MB-VATI; n = 14). Anaesthesia was induced 15 minutes later with propofol and maintained with sevoflurane in oxygen (targeting 1.3%). Before surgical incision, lidocaine (2 mg kg?1) was injected intratesticularly. At the end of the procedure, meloxicam (0.2 mg kg?1) was administered IV. The level of sedation, the qualities of induction, intubation and recovery, and Glasgow Composite Pain Scale short form (GCPS-SF) were assessed. Heart rate (HR), respiratory rate (fR), mean arterial pressure (MAP), end-tidal concentration of sevoflurane (Fe′Sevo) and carbon dioxide (Pe′CO2) were recorded. Blood samples were collected at 10 and 30 minutes after premedication for plasma medetomidine and butorphanol concentrations.ResultsAt the beginning of surgery, HR was 61 ± 16 and 93 ± 23 beats minute?1 (p = 0.001), and MAP was 78 ± 7 and 56 ± 7 mmHg (p = 0.001) in MB and MB-VATI groups, respectively. No differences were detected in fR, Pe′CO2, Fe′Sevo, the level of sedation, the qualities of induction, intubation and recovery, or in GCPS-SF. Plasma medetomidine concentrations were higher in group MB-VATI than in MB at 10 minutes (p = 0.002) and 30 minutes (p = 0.0001). Plasma butorphanol concentrations were not different between groups.Conclusions and clinical relevanceIn group MB, HR was significantly lower than in group MB-VATI. Hypotension detected in group MB-VATI during sevoflurane anaesthesia was clinically the most significant difference between groups.  相似文献

ObjectiveTo determine in dogs the effects of medetomidine and butorphanol, alone and in combination, on the induction dose of alfaxalone and to describe the induction and intubation conditions.Study designProspective, randomized, blinded clinical trial.AnimalsEighty-five client-owned dogs (ASA 1 or 2).MethodsSubjects were block randomized to treatment group according to temperament. The treatment groups were: medetomidine 4 μg kg?1 (M), butorphanol 0.1 mg kg?1 (B), or a combination of both (MB), all administered intramuscularly. After 30 minutes, a sedation score was assigned, and alfaxalone 0.5 mg kg?1 was administered intravenously over 60 seconds by an observer who was unaware of treatment group. Tracheal intubation conditions were assessed and, if tracheal intubation was not possible after 20 seconds, further boluses of 0.2 mg kg?1 were given every 20 seconds until intubation was achieved. Induction dose and adverse events (sneezing, twitching, paddling, excitement, apnoea and cyanosis) were recorded; induction quality and intubation conditions were scored and recorded.ResultsThe mean dose of alfaxalone required for induction was similar for groups M and B: 1.2 ± 0.4 mg kg?1. The mean dose requirement for group MB (0.8 ± 0.3 mg kg?1) was lower than groups M and B (p < 0.0001). Induction dose was not influenced by temperament or level of sedation. Induction and intubation scores did not differ between treatment groups. Adverse events were noted in 16 dogs; there was no association with treatment group, temperament or level of sedation.Conclusions and clinical relevanceMedetomidine and butorphanol administered in combination reduce the anaesthetic induction dose of alfaxalone compared to either agent alone. This difference should be taken into account when using this combination of drugs in a clinical setting.  相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To characterize cardiorespiratory effects for a combination of medetomidine, butorphanol, and midazolam and to compare magnitude of cardiorespiratory depression with that induced by a commonly used inhalation anesthetic regimen (acepromazine-butorphanol-thiopental-halothane). ANIMALS: 10 clinically normal dogs (2 groups of 5). PROCEDURE: In treated dogs, medetomidine was administered (time, 0 minutes); midazolam and butorphanol were administered when effects of medetomidine were maximal (time, 20), and atipamezole was administered subsequently (time 60). In control dogs, drugs were administered after allowing effects of each agent to be achieved: acepromazine was given at time 0, butorphanol and thiopental were administered at time 35, and halothane was administered from time 45 until 110. Various cardiorespiratory and hematologic variables were measured or calculated. RESULTS: Respiratory rate, arterial and venous pH, venous oxygen content, oxygen consumption, and oxygen delivery decreased significantly below baseline values for treated dogs; end-tidal CO2, arterial and venous P(CO)2, and O2 extraction increased significantly above baseline values. Compared with data obtained after anesthesia, arterial HCO3- concentration, venous P(O2) and S(O2), cardiac output, oxygen extraction, and oxygen delivery appeared more modified in treated dogs. Oxygen consumption and physiologic shunt fraction were less modified in treated dogs than control dogs. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Medetomidine-butorphanol-midazolam combination induced respiratory depression, comparable in magnitude to that induced by a widely used inhalation anesthetic regimen. Respiratory variables remained within acceptable limits during anesthesia; however, those associated with cardiovascular function were more severely affected.  相似文献

This study evaluated the quality of anaesthesia and some of the haemodynamic effects induced by a combination of thiopental, medetomidine, butorphanol and atropine in healthy beagle dogs ( n  = 12). Following premedication with atropine (ATR, 0.022 mg/kg intravenously (i.v.)) and butorphanol (BUT, 0.22 mg/kg i.v.), medetomidine (MED, 22 μg/kg intramuscularly (i.m.)) was administered followed in 5 min by thiopental (THIO, 2.2 mg/kg i.v.). Heart rate, systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP) and mean arterial blood pressure (MBP) were monitored continuously with an ECG and direct arterial blood pressure monitor. Atipamezole (ATI, 110 μg/kg i.v.) was administered to half of the dogs ( n  = 6) following surgery to evaluate the speed and quality of arousal from anaesthesia. Anaesthesia was characterized by excellent muscle relaxation, analgesia and absence of purposeful movement in response to surgical castration. Arousal following antagonism of mede­tomidine was significantly faster ( P  < 0.05) than in unantagonized dogs. Recoveries were smooth but recovery times following atipamezole administration were highly variable among dogs (sternal time range 6–38 min, standing time range 9–56 min). Medetomidine caused a significant ( P  < 0.05) increase in SBP, DBP and MBP. Atropine prevented the medetomidine induced bradycardia. In conclusion, this combination provided adequate surgical anaesthesia in healthy beagle dogs. At the dosages used in this study, it seems prudent that this combination should be reserved for dogs free of myocardial disease.  相似文献

Objective To evaluate the sedative effects of medetomidine, and a medetomidine–midazolam combination, in Japanese macaques and the antagonism of medetomidine–midazolam with atipamezole. Study design Prospective randomized study. Animals Thirteen healthy Japanese macaques between 3 and 21 years old and weighing between 4.3 and 15.1 kg. Methods Medetomidine (120 µg kg?1) alone or a medetomidine (30 µg kg?1) plus midazolam (0.3 mg kg?1) mixture were injected intramuscularly in the hind limb of 12 animals (n = 6 for each group) and their effects, particularly behavioural changes, response to external stimuli, sedative onset time, time to lateral recumbency and time in lateral recumbency, were monitored for 120 minutes. Another group (n = 7) were given medetomidine–midazolam and injected 30 minutes later with atipamezole (120 µg kg?1). Behavioural changes and responses to external stimuli were assessed as before. Results Animals given medetomidine became sedated but could be aroused by external stimuli. Despite the lower (25%) dose of medetomidine involved, the effects of medetomidine–midazolam were more marked. Macaques given this combination became sedated in 4 ± 2 minutes (mean ± SD) and remained unresponsive to external stimuli for at least 60 minutes. Five out of six macaques became laterally recumbent for 74 ± 37 minutes. Intramuscular atipamezole effectively reversed sedation, shortening the arousal and total recovery time. The recovery from sedation was rapid and smooth, being completed 19 ± 11 minutes after antagonism. Conclusions The medetomidine–midazolam combination described provided useful chemical restraint and may prove useful in macaques undergoing some experimental, diagnostic or therapeutic procedures. The use of atipamezole as an antagonist increases the value of this technique in macaques.  相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To determine effects of low doses of medetomidine administered with and without butorphanol and glycopyrrolate to middle-aged and old dogs. DESIGN: Prospective randomized clinical trial. ANIMALS: 88 healthy dogs > or = 5 years old. PROCEDURE: Dogs were assigned randomly to receive medetomidine (2, 5, or 10 micrograms/kg [0.9, 2.3, or 4.6 micrograms/lb] of body weight, i.m.) alone or with glycopyrrolate (0.01 mg/kg [0.005 mg/lb], s.c.), medetomidine (10 micrograms/kg) and butorphanol (0.2 mg/kg [0.1 mg/lb], i.m.), or medetomidine (10 micrograms/kg), butorphanol (0.2 mg/kg), and glycopyrrolate (0.01 mg/kg). Anesthesia was induced with thiopental sodium and maintained with isoflurane. Degree of sedation and analgesia were determined before and after medetomidine administration. Respiratory rate, heart rate, and mean arterial blood pressure were determined 10 and 30 minutes after medetomidine administration. Adverse effects and amounts of thiopental and isoflurane used were recorded. RESULTS: Sedation increased after medetomidine administration in 79 of 88 dogs, but decreased in 7 dogs that received 2 or 5 micrograms of medetomidine/kg. Mean postsedation analgesia score and amounts of thiopental and isoflurane used were less in dogs that received medetomidine and butorphanol, compared with other groups. Respiratory rate, heart rate, and blood pressure were not different among groups. Significantly more adverse effects developed in dogs that did not receive glycopyrrolate. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Administration of medetomidine (10 micrograms/kg, i.m.) and butorphanol (0.2 mg/kg, i.m.) induced sedation and analgesia and reduced amounts of thiopental and isoflurane required for anesthesia in middle-aged and old dogs. Glycopyrrolate decreased frequency of medetomidine-associated adverse effects.  相似文献

ObjectiveTo assess the efficacy of butorphanol–azaperone–medetomidine (BAM) and butorphanol–midazolam–medetomidine (BMM) protocols for immobilization of wild common palm civets (Paradoxurus musangus) with subsequent antagonization with atipamezole.Study designProspective, randomized, blinded clinical trial.AnimalsA total of 40 adult wild common palm civets, 24 female and 16 male, weighing 1.5–3.4 kg.MethodsThe civets were randomly assigned for anesthesia with butorphanol, azaperone and medetomidine (0.6, 0.6 and 0.2 mg kg–1, respectively; group BAM) or with butorphanol, midazolam and medetomidine (0.3, 0.4 and 0.1 mg kg–1, respectively; group BMM) intramuscularly (IM) in a squeeze cage. When adequately relaxed, the trachea was intubated for oxygen administration. Physiological variables were recorded every 5 minutes after intubation. Following morphometric measurements, sampling, microchipping and parasite treatment, medetomidine was reversed with atipamezole at 1.0 or 0.5 mg kg–1 IM to groups BAM and BMM, respectively. Physiological variables and times to reach the different stages of anesthesia were compared between groups.ResultsOnset time of sedation and recumbency was similar in both groups; time to achieve complete relaxation and tracheal intubation was longer in group BAM. Supplementation with isoflurane was required to enable intubation in five civets in group BAM and one civet in group BMM. All civets in group BAM required topical lidocaine to facilitate intubation. End-tidal carbon dioxide partial pressure was lower in group BAM, but heart rate, respiratory rate, rectal temperature, peripheral hemoglobin oxygen saturation and mean arterial blood pressure were not different. All civets in both groups recovered well following administration of atipamezole.Conclusions and clinical relevanceBoth BAM and BMM combinations were effective for immobilizing wild common palm civets. The BMM combination had the advantage of producing complete relaxation that allowed intubation more rapidly.  相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To determine sedative and cardiorespiratory effects of i.m. administration of medetomidine alone and in combination with butorphanol or ketamine in dogs. DESIGN: Randomized, crossover study. ANIMALS: 6 healthy adult dogs. PROCEDURES: Dogs were given medetomidine alone (30 micrograms/kg [13.6 micrograms/lb] of body weight, i.m.), a combination of medetomidine (30 micrograms/kg, i.m.) and butorphanol (0.2 mg/kg [0.09 mg/lb], i.m.), or a combination of medetomidine (30 micrograms/kg, i.m.) and ketamine (3 mg/kg [1.36 mg/lb], i.m.). Treatments were administered in random order with a minimum of 1 week between treatments. Glycopyrrolate was given at the same time. Atipamezole (150 micrograms/kg [68 micrograms/lb], i.m.) was given 40 minutes after administration of medetomidine. RESULTS: All but 1 dog (given medetomidine alone) assumed lateral recumbency within 6 minutes after drug administration. Endotracheal intubation was significantly more difficult when dogs were given medetomidine alone than when given medetomidine and butorphanol. At all evaluation times, percentages of dogs with positive responses to tail clamping or to needle pricks in the cervical region, shoulder region, abdominal region, or hindquarters were not significantly different among drug treatments. The Paco2 was significantly higher and the arterial pH and Pao2 were significantly lower when dogs were given medetomidine and butorphanol or medetomidine and ketamine than when they were given medetomidine alone. Recovery quality following atipamezole administration was unsatisfactory in 1 dog when given medetomidine and ketamine. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Results suggested that a combination of medetomidine with butorphanol or ketamine resulted in more reliable and uniform sedation in dogs than did medetomidine alone.  相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To assess duration of actions of butorphanol, medetomidine, and a butorphanol-medetomidine combination in dogs given subanesthetic doses of isoflurane (ISO). ANIMALS: 6 healthy dogs. PROCEDURE: Minimum alveolar concentration (MAC) values for ISO were determined. for each dog. Subsequently, 4 treatments were administered to each dog (saline [0.9% NaCl] solution, butorphanol [0.2 mg/kg of body weight], medetomidine [5.0 microg/kg], and a combination of butorphanol [0.2 mg/kg] and medetomidine [5.0 microg/kg]). All treatments were administered IM to dogs concurrent with isoflurane; treatment order was determined, using a randomized crossover design. Treatments were given at 7-day intervals. After mask induction with ISO and instrumentation with a rectal temperature probe, end-tidal CO2 and anesthetic gas concentrations were analyzed. End-tidal ISO concentration was reduced to 90% MAC for each dog. A tail clamp was applied 15 minutes later. After a positive response, 1 of the treatments was administered. Response to application of the tail clamp was assessed at 15-minute intervals until a positive response again was detected. RESULTS: Duration of nonresponse after administration of saline solution, butorphanol, medetomidine, and butorphanol-medetomidine (mean +/- SD) was 0.0+/-0.0, 1.5+/-1.5, 2.63+/-0.49, and 5.58+/-2.28 hours, respectively. Medetomidine effects were evident significantly longer than those for saline solution, whereas effects for butorphanol-medetomidine were evident significantly longer than for each agent administered alone. CONCLUSION AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE: During ISO-induced anesthesia, administration of medetomidine, but not butorphanol, provides longer and more consistent analgesia than does saline solution, and the combination of butorphanol-medetomidine appears superior to the use of medetomidine or butorphanol alone.  相似文献

ObjectiveTo assess the effects of varying the sequence of midazolam and propofol administration on the quality of induction, cardiorespiratory parameters and propofol requirements in dogs.Study designRandomized, controlled, clinical study.AnimalsThirty‐three client owned dogs (ASA I‐III, 0.5–10 years, 5–30 kg).MethodsDogs were premedicated with acepromazine (0.02 mg kg?1) and morphine (0.4 mg kg?1) intramuscularly. After 30 minutes, group midazolam‐propofol (MP) received midazolam (0.25 mg kg?1) intravenously (IV) before propofol (1 mg kg?1) IV, group propofol‐midazolam (PM) received propofol before midazolam IV at the same doses, and control group (CP) received saline IV, instead of midazolam, before propofol. Supplementary boluses of propofol (0.5 mg kg?1) were administered to effect to all groups until orotracheal intubation was completed. Behaviour after midazolam administration, quality of sedation and induction, and ease of intubation were scored. Heart rate (HR), respiratory rate, and systolic arterial blood pressure were recorded before premedication, post‐premedication, after midazolam or saline administration, and at 0, 2, 5, and 10 minutes post‐intubation. End‐tidal CO2 and arterial oxygen haemoglobin saturation were recorded at 2, 5 and 10 minutes post‐intubation.ResultsQuality of sedation and induction, and ease of intubation were similar in all groups. Incidence of excitement was higher in the MP compared to CP (p = 0.014) and PM (p = 0.026) groups. Propofol requirements were decreased in MP and PM groups with respect to CP (p < 0.001), and in PM compared to MP (p = 0.022). The HR decreased after premedication in all groups, and increased after midazolam and subsequent times in MP (p = 0.019) and PM (p = 0.001) groups. Incidence of apnoea and paddling was higher in CP (p = 0.005) and MP (p = 0.031) groups than in PM.Conclusions and clinical relevanceAdministration of midazolam before propofol reduced propofol requirements although caused mild excitement in some dogs. Administration of propofol before midazolam resulted in less excitatory phenomena and greater reduction of propofol requirements.  相似文献

Objective To compare the characteristics of anaesthesia induced with ketamine/medetomidine administered by the subcutaneous and intramuscular routes and to assess the effects of the addition of butorphanol to this combination. Study design Prospective randomised study. Animals Six female New Zealand White rabbits. Methods Rabbits were given one of four combinations of ketamine and medetomidine (K/M) either subcutaneously (SC) or intramuscularly (IM) on four successive occasions with a 7‐day interval between treatments. The dose combinations were; 15/0.25 mg kg?1 SC; 15/0.25 mg kg?1 IM; 15/0.5 mg kg?1 SC, and 15/0.25 mg kg?1 together with 0.4 mg kg?1 butorphanol (K/M/B) SC. The effects of anaesthesia on arterial blood gas values and cardiovascular variables were recorded at predetermined time points. Toe and ear pinch reflexes were judged to determine the duration of surgical anaesthesia. Loss of the righting reflex was used to measure the duration of sleep time. Analyses used repeated measures analysis of variance. Results All groups lost the righting reflex and ear pinch response. Three animals in the groups that received K/M alone lost their toe pinch reflex, whereas four lost this reflex when given K/M/B. Time of onset of loss of the righting, toe and ear pinch reflexes did not differ significantly among the groups. The higher dose combination of medetomidine with ketamine and the combination of K/M/B produced a greater duration of loss of the ear pinch response than the lower dose of K/M administered by either route. No significant differences were found among the groups in the duration of loss of the toe pinch reflex. All animals developed a moderate bradycardia (mean heart rate <166 beats minute?1) and moderate hypoxaemia (mean PaO2 < 6.0 kPa). Animals given butorphanol showed the greatest reduction in respiratory rate (31 ± 13 breaths minute?1, p < 0.05) but this was not reflected in any significant differences in arterial PCO2, PO2 or pH among the groups. Conclusions Administration of K/M by the SC route produced equivalent effects in comparison to intramuscular administration. The addition of butorphanol increased the duration of anaesthesia, but produced a slight increase in the degree of respiratory depression. All dose rates resulted in hypoxaemia so oxygen should be administered when these combinations are used in rabbits. Clinical relevance Subcutaneous administration is both technically simpler and may cause less discomfort to the animal than IM injection, and so is preferred. The combination of K/M with butorphanol has relatively minor effects on the depth and duration of anaesthesia, so offers little advantage to the use of K/M alone.  相似文献

Objective

To evaluate whether intratesticular and incisional ropivacaine infiltration produces sufficient intra- and postoperative analgesia for castrating dogs under sedation.

Study design

Randomized, blinded, controlled clinical study.

Animals

Twenty-three healthy dogs weighing 5.8–35.6 kg admitted for castration.

Methods

Dogs were sedated with medetomidine (0.01 mg kg?1), butorphanol (0.2 mg kg?1) and midazolam (0.2 mg kg?1) intramuscularly, and were randomly assigned to group R, 0.2–0.4 mL kg?1 of ropivacaine 0.5%, or group S, an equivalent volume of saline injected intratesticularly and along the incision line. If persistent motion was observed during surgery, sedation was considered to be insufficient and general anaesthesia was induced. Carprofen 2.2 mg kg?1 was administered postoperatively. Pain was evaluated in all dogs before sedation and postoperatively following atipamezole administration at 1, 2, 4, 8 and 24 hours using an interactive visual analogue scale (IVAS; 0–100), the Glasgow composite pain scale-short form (CMPS-SF; 0–24), and a mechanical algometer. Methadone 0.3 mg kg?1 was administered intravenously to dogs if IVAS >30 or CMPS-SF >4.

Results

There was no significant difference between groups for the number of dogs administered general anaesthesia. The time from the beginning of surgery to induction of general anaesthesia was significantly shorter [median (range)] in group S [6 (3–25) minutes] than in group R [56 (36–76) minutes]. At 8 hours IVAS was significantly higher in group S (14 ± 10) than in group R (6 ± 4).

Conclusions and clinical relevance

Intratesticular and incisional ropivacaine infiltration delayed the time to anaesthesia induction, and provided analgesia after castration performed under deep sedation in dogs. Intratesticular local anaesthesia can be an important part of the anaesthetic plan for castration.  相似文献

The effects of intramuscularly administered medetomidine and butorphanol (MB), and medetomidine, butorphanol, atropine (MBA) on glomerular filtration rate (GFR) were determined in six dogs as measured by 99m-Tc-labeled diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid (99mTc-DTPA) nuclear scintigraphy. Direct systolic, diastolic, and mean arterial blood pressures and heart rate were measured at regular time intervals before, during, and after GFR calculations. The mean GFR measurement following MB was significantly greater (4.44 ml/min/kg) than following MBA (3.82 ml/min/kg) or saline treatment (3.41 ml/min/kg). There was no significant difference between the mean GFR measurements following MBA injection and following saline injection. Diastolic and mean arterial pressures following MBA injection were significantly higher than the values recorded after either MB or saline alone. Heart rate following MB administration was significantly lower than that recorded for dogs receiving MBA or saline alone. The results of this study indicate that the administration of medetomidine in combination with butorphanol significantly increases total GFR in healthy dogs, while the administration of the combination of medetomidine, butorphanol, and atropine does not.  相似文献

The purpose of this study was to determine the cardiovascular, analgesic, and sedative effects of IV medetomidine (M, 20 µg kg?1), medetomidine–hydromorphone (MH, 20 µg kg?1 ? 0.1 mg kg?1), and medetomidine–butorphanol (MB, 20 µg kg?1 ? 0.2 mg kg?1) in dogs. Using a randomized cross‐over design and allowing 1 week between treatments, six healthy, mixed‐breed dogs (five males and one female) weighing 20 ± 3 kg, were induced to anesthesia by face‐mask administration of 2.9% ET sevoflurane to facilitate instrumentation prior to administration of the treatment combinations. Dogs were intubated and instrumented to enable measurement of heart rate (HR), systolic arterial pressure (SAP), mean arterial pressure (MAP), diastolic arterial pressure (DAP), mean pulmonary arterial pressure (PAP), pulmonary arterial occlusion pressure (PAOP), central venous pressure (CVP), pulmonary arterial temperature (TEMP), and cardiac output via thermodilution using 5 mL of 5% dextrose, and recording the average of the three replicate measurements. Cardiac index (CI) and systemic (SVR) and pulmonary vascular resistances were calculated. After instrumentation was completed, administration of sevoflurane was discontinued, and the dogs were allowed to recover for 30 minutes prior to administration of the treatment drugs. After collection of the baseline samples for blood gas analysis and recording the baseline cardiovascular variables, the test agents were administered IV over 10 seconds and the CV variables recorded at 5, 10, 15, 30, 45, and 60 minutes post‐injection. In addition, arterial blood was sampled for blood gas analysis at 15 and 45 minutes following injection. Intensity and duration of analgesia (assessed by toe‐pinch response using a hemostat) and level of sedation were evaluated at the above time points and at 75 and 90 minutes post‐injection. Data were analyzed using anova for repeated measures with posthoc differences between means identified using Bonferroni's method (p < 0.05). Administration of M, MH, or MB was associated with increases in SAP, MAP, DAP, PAP, PAOP, CVP, SVR, and TEMP and with decreases in HR and CI. No differences in CV variables between treatment groups were identified at any time. PaO2 increased over time in all groups and was significantly higher when MH was compared with M. At 45 minutes, PaO2 tended to decrease over time and was significantly lower when MH and MB were compared with M at 15 minutes. Analgesia scores for MH and MB were significantly higher compared with M through 45 minutes, while analgesia scores for MH were significantly higher compared with M through 90 minutes. Sedation scores were higher for MH and MB compared with M throughout 90 minutes. Durations of lateral recumbency were 108 ± 10.8, 172 ± 15.5, and 145 ± 9.9 minutes for M, MH, and MB, respectively. We conclude that MH and MB are associated with improved analgesia and sedation and have similar CV effects when compared with M.  相似文献

ObjectiveTo evaluate the effects of the co-administration of midazolam on the dose requirement for propofol anesthesia induction, heart rate (HR), systolic arterial pressure (SAP) and the incidence of excitement.Study designProspective, randomized, controlled and blinded clinical study, with owner consent.AnimalsSeventeen healthy, client owned dogs weighing 28 ± 18 kg and aged 4.9 ± 3.9 years old.MethodsDogs were sedated with acepromazine 0.025 mg kg?1 and morphine 0.25 mg kg?1 intramuscularly (IM), 30 minutes prior to induction of anesthesia. Patients were randomly allocated to receive midazolam (MP; 0.2 mg kg?1) or sterile normal saline (CP; 0.04 mL kg?1) intravenously (IV) over 15 seconds. Propofol was administered IV immediately following test drug and delivered at 3 mg kg?1 minute?1 until intubation was possible. Scoring of pre-induction sedation, ease of intubation, quality of induction, and presence or absence of excitement following co-induction agent, was recorded. HR, SAP and respiratory rate (fR) were obtained immediately prior to, immediately following, and 5 minutes following induction of anesthesia.ResultsThere were no significant differences between groups with regard to weight, age, gender, or sedation. Excitement occurred in 5/9 dogs following midazolam administration, with none noted in the control group. The dose of propofol administered to the midazolam group was significantly less than in the control group. Differences in HR were not significant between groups. SAP was significantly lower in the midazolam group compared with baseline values 5 minutes after its administration. However, values remained clinically acceptable.Conclusions and clinical relevanceThe co-administration of midazolam with propofol decreased the total dose of propofol needed for induction of anesthesia in sedated healthy dogs, caused some excitement and a clinically unimportant decrease in SAP.  相似文献

ObjectiveTo evaluate the effect of medetomidine–butorphanol sedation on serum cardiac troponin I (cTnI) concentration, a marker of myocardial ischemia and injury, in healthy dogs undergoing pre–surgical radiographs for orthopedic procedures.Study designProspective clinical study.AnimalsTwenty client–owned dogs with no history of cardiac disease.MethodsDogs were evaluated for pre–existing cardiac disease with electrocardiogram (ECG), noninvasive blood pressure and echocardiogram. Sedation was achieved using a combination of medetomidine (10 μg kg?1) and butorphanol (0.2 mg kg?1) intravenously. Blood pressure, heart rate and ECG were serially recorded throughout the duration of sedation. Serum cTnI concentration was measured at baseline and 6, 18, and 24–hours post–sedation.ResultsFollowing administration of medetomidine and butorphanol, all dogs were adequately sedated for radiographs and had a decreased heart rate and increased diastolic blood pressure. Arrhythmias associated with increased parasympathetic tone occurred, including a sinus arrhythmia further characterized as a sinus bigeminy in 17 of the dogs. Serum cTnI was undetectable at all time points in all but three dogs. Two of the three dogs had a detectable concentration of cTnI at all time points measured, including prior to sedation. Only one of the two dogs had a cTnI concentration above the normal reference interval. The dogs that exhibited detectable cTnI had no significant difference in signalment, heart rate, blood pressure, or lactate concentration as compared to those with undetectable cTnI.Conclusions and clinical relevanceSedation with medetomidine and butorphanol had predictable cardiovascular effects including bradycardia, an increase in arterial blood pressure, and arrhythmias in apparently healthy dogs requiring radiographs for orthopedic injuries, but did not induce significant increases in serum cTnI concentration following the drug doses used in this study.  相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To compare the perioperative stress response in dogs administered medetomidine or acepromazine as part of the preanesthetic medication. ANIMALS: 42 client-owned dogs that underwent elective ovariohysterectomy. PROCEDURE: Each dog was randomly allocated to receive medetomidine and butorphanol tartrate (20 microgram/kg and 0.2 mg/kg, respectively, IM) or acepromazine maleate and butorphanol (0.05 and 0.2 mg/kg, respectively, IM) for preanesthetic medication. Approximately 80 minutes later, anesthesia was induced by administration of propofol and maintained by use of isoflurane in oxygen. Each dog was also given carprofen before surgery and buprenorphine after surgery. Plasma concentrations of epinephrine, norepinephrine, cortisol, and beta-endorphin were measured at various stages during the perioperative period. In addition, cardiovascular and clinical variables were monitored. RESULTS: Concentrations of epinephrine, norepinephrine, and cortisol were significantly lower for dogs administered medetomidine. Concentrations of beta-endorphin did not differ between the 2 groups. Heart rate was significantly lower and mean arterial blood pressure significantly higher in dogs administered medetomidine, compared with values for dogs administered acepromazine. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Results indicate that for preanesthetic medications, medetomidine may offer some advantages over acepromazine with respect to the ability to decrease perioperative concentrations of stress-related hormones. In particular, the ability to provide stable plasma catecholamine concentrations may help to attenuate perioperative activation of the sympathetic nervous system.  相似文献

A central eyeball position is often required during sedation or anaesthesia to facilitate examination of the eye. However, use of neuromuscular blockade to produce a central eye position may result in depressed ventilation. This study evaluated the eyeball position, muscle relaxation and changes in ventilation during general anaesthesia after the IV administration of 0.1 mg kg?1 rocuronium. With client consent, 12 dogs of different breeds, body mass 27.2 ± 11.8 kg, aged 5.6 ± 2.8 years (mean ± SD) were anaesthetized for ocular examination. Pre‐anaesthetic medication was 0.01 mg kg?1 medetomidine and 0.2 mg kg?1 butorphanol IV. Anaesthesia was induced with propofol to effect and maintained with 10 mg kg?1 hour?1 propofol by infusion. The dogs were placed in left lateral recumbency, their trachea intubated and connected to a circle breathing system (Fi O2 = 1.0). All dogs breathed spontaneously. The superficial peroneal nerve of the right hind leg was stimulated every 15 seconds with a train‐of‐four (TOF) stimulation pattern and neuromuscular function was assessed with an acceleromyograph (TOF‐Guard). Adequacy of ventilation was measured with the Ventrak 1550. After 10 minutes of anaesthesia to allow stabilisation of baseline values, 0.1 mg kg?1 rocuronium was administered IV. Minute volume (Vm ), tidal volume (Vt ), respiratory rate (RR), Pe ′CO2 and maximal depression of T1 and TOF ratio were measured. Data were analysed using a paired t‐test. The changes in the eyeball position were recorded. A total of 100 ± 33 seconds after the injection of rocuronium, T1 was maximally depressed to 62 ± 21% and the TOF ratio to 42 ± 18% of baseline values. Both variables returned to baseline after 366 ± 132 seconds (T1) and 478 ± 111 seconds (TOF). There was no significant reduction in Vm (2.32 ± 1.1 L minute?1), Vt (124.1 ± 69.3 mL) and RR (10 ± 3.8 breaths minute?1) and no increase in Pe ′CO2 (6.5 ± 2.1 kPa (48.8 ± 16.1 mm Hg)) throughout the procedure. The eyeball rotated to a central position 35 ± 7 seconds after rocuronium IV and remained there for a minimum of 20 ± 7 minutes in all dogs. We conclude that rocuronium at a dose of 0.1 mg kg?1 can be administered to dogs IV with minimal changes in ventilatory variables. The eyeball is fixed in a central position for at least 20 minutes, which greatly facilitates clinical examination.  相似文献
