Objective To determine the electrocardiographic and cardiopulmonary effects of IM administration of romifidine with and without prior administration of glycopyrrolate in conscious dogs. Study design Prospective randomized study. Animals Twelve healthy, adult beagles. Materials and methods Dogs were assigned at random to each of three treatments with glycopyrrolate (six dogs), and to each of three treatments without glycopyrrolate (six dogs). Baseline data were recorded, and saline solution or glycopyrrolate (10 µg kg–1) was given IM. After 15 minutes, saline solution (control) or romifidine (20 or 40 µg kg–1) was given IM. An ECG, heart rate (HR), systemic blood pressures, and respiratory rate (RR) were recorded before and 2.5, 5, 10, 15, 30, 45, 60, 75, 90, 105 and 120 minutes after romifidine administration. Rectal temperature (RT), pH, PaCO2, PaO2, hematocrit and plasma protein were determined before and 15, 30, 60 and 120 minutes after romifidine administration. Data were analyzed using analysis of variance for repeated measures and Tukey multiple comparison tests. Results Without glycopyrrolate, HR (beats minute–1) decreased to minimum values (mean ± SD) of 52 ± 7 and 49 ± 12 (control 89 ± 20) 45 minutes after administration of romifidine at doses of 20 and 40 µg kg–1, respectively. Sinus bradycardia (HR < 60 beats minute–1), which persisted for up to 120 minutes, was observed in five of six and six of six dogs given romifidine at doses of 20 and 40 µg kg–1, respectively. With glycopyrrolate, decreases in HR were prevented and mean arterial pressure (mm Hg) increased to maximum values of 139 ± 25 and 173 ± 17 (control 113 ± 11) 30 minutes after administration of romifidine at doses of 20 and 40 µg kg–1, respectively. With and without glycopyrrolate, RR did not change appreciably, RT decreased, and pH, PaCO2, PaO2, hematocrit and plasma protein did not change after administration of romifidine. Conclusions and clinical relevance In healthy conscious beagles, IM administration of romifidine at doses of 20 and 40 µg kg–1 causes sinus bradycardia which persists for up to 120 minutes. Administration of glycopyrrolate 15 minutes before administration of romifidine, prevents sinus bradycardia and induces moderate increases in arterial pressure.  相似文献

ObjectiveTo investigate the cardiovascular effects of epidural romifidine in isoflurane-anaesthetized dogs.Study designProspective, randomized, blinded experiment.AnimalsA total of six healthy adult female Beagles aged 1.25 ± 0.08 years and weighing 12.46 ± 1.48 (10.25–14.50) kg.MethodsAnaesthesia was induced with propofol (6–9 mg kg?1) and maintained with 1.8–1.9% end-tidal isoflurane in oxygen. End-tidal CO2 was kept between 35 and 45 mmHg (4.7–6.0 kPa) using intermittent positive pressure ventilation. Heart rate (HR), arterial blood pressure and cardiac output (CO) were monitored. Cardiac output was determined using a LiDCO monitor and the derived parameters were calculated. After baseline measurements, either 10 μg kg?1 romifidine or saline (total volume 1 mL 4.5 kg?1) was injected into the lumbosacral epidural space. Data were recorded for 1 hour after epidural injection. A minimum of 1 week elapsed between treatments.ResultsAfter epidural injection, the overall means (± standard deviation, SD) of HR (95 ± 20 bpm), mean arterial blood pressure (MAP) (81 ± 19 mmHg), CO (1.63 ± 0.66 L minute?1), cardiac index (CI) (2.97 ± 1.1 L minute?1 m?2) and stroke volume index (SI) (1.38 ± 0.21 mL beat?1 kg?1) were significantly lower in the romifidine treatment compared with the overall means in the saline treatment [HR (129 ± 24 bpm), MAP (89 ± 17 mmHg), CO (3.35 ± 0.86 L minute?1), CI (6.17 ± 1.4 L minute?1 m?2) and SI (2.21 ± 0.21 mL beat?1 kg?1)]. The overall mean of systemic vascular resistance index (SVRI) (7202 ± 2656 dynes seconds cm?5 m?2) after epidural romifidine injection was significantly higher than the overall mean of SVRI (3315 ± 1167 dynes seconds cm?5 m?2) after epidural saline injection.ConclusionEpidural romifidine in isoflurane-anaesthetized dogs caused significant cardiovascular effects similar to those reportedly produced by systemic romifidine administration.Clinical relevanceSimilar cardiovascular monitoring is required after epidural and systemically administered romifidine. Further studies are required to evaluate the analgesic effects of epidural romifidine.  相似文献

ObjectiveTo evaluate the combined effects of enoximone and dobutamine on the cardiovascular system and respiratory gas exchange in isoflurane-anaesthetized ponies.Study designProspective, randomized, experimental study.AnimalsSix ponies (286 ± 52 kg), aged 5.0 ± 1.6 years.MethodsAfter sedation (romifidine 80 μg kg−1), anaesthesia was induced with midazolam (0.06 mg kg−1) and ketamine (2.2 mg kg−1) and maintained with isoflurane in oxygen. The ponies were ventilated to maintain eucapnia. After 90 minutes (=T0), enoximone alone (0.5 mg kg−1) (E) or enoximone, followed by a constant rate infusion of dobutamine (0.5 μg kg−1 minute−1) (ED) for 120 minutes, was administered. Each pony received both treatments in a crossover trial, with at least 2 weeks between treatments. Heart rate (HR), cardiac output (CO), stroke volume (SV), right atrial (RAP), systolic (SAP), diastolic (DAP) and mean arterial pressure (MAP), blood gases, systemic vascular resistance (SVR), oxygen delivery (D⌽O2) and several respiratory gas exchange variables were measured before treatment and until T120. Statistical analysis was based on a mixed model with treatment, time and their interaction as fixed categorical effects, pony as random effect, comparing treatments globally (α = 0.05) and at specific timepoints (Bonferroni-adjusted α = 0.00625).ResultsCompared to enoximone alone, ED treatment produced an increase in HR, CO, SV, RAP, SAP, DAP, MAP, packed cell volume (PCV) and D⌽O2. The difference was significant from T60 to T120 (except at T80) for HR, throughout the observational period for CO, SAP, MAP, PCV and D⌽O2, from T40 to T120 for DAP, at T10,T60,T80 and T120 for SV and at T10 and T20 for RAP. Overall decreases occurred in SVR and dead space ventilation (VD/VT). VD/VT was lower at T20 and from T80 to T120. Venous oxygen saturation was increased from T60 onwards.Conclusions and clinical relevanceThe results suggest that enoximone and dobutamine have additive cardiovascular effects and reduce VD/VT in isoflurane-anaesthetized ponies.  相似文献

ObjectiveTo determine the effect of intravenous vatinoxan administration on bradycardia, hypertension and level of anaesthesia induced by medetomidine–tiletamine–zolazepam in red deer (Cervus elaphus).Study design and animalsA total of 10 healthy red deer were included in a randomised, controlled, experimental, crossover study.MethodsDeer were administered a combination of 0.1 mg kg–1 medetomidine hydrochloride and 2.5 mg kg–1 tiletamine–zolazepam intramuscularly, followed by 0.1 mg kg–1 vatinoxan hydrochloride or equivalent volume of saline intravenously (IV) 35 minutes after anaesthetic induction. Heart rate (HR), mean arterial blood pressure (MAP), respiration rate (fR), end-tidal CO2 (Pe′CO2), arterial oxygen saturation (SpO2), rectal temperature (RT) and level of anaesthesia were assessed before saline/vatinoxan administration (baseline) and at intervals for 25 minutes thereafter. Differences within treatments (change from baseline) and between treatments were analysed with linear mixed effect models (p < 0.05).ResultsMaximal (81 ± 10 beats minute–1) HR occurred 90 seconds after vatinoxan injection and remained significantly above baseline (42 ± 4 beats minute–1) for 15 minutes. MAP significantly decreased from baseline (122 ± 10 mmHg) to a minimum MAP of 83 ± 6 mmHg 60 seconds after vatinoxan and remained below baseline until end of anaesthesia. HR remained unchanged from baseline (43 ± 5 beats minute–1) with the saline treatment, whereas MAP decreased significantly (112 ± 16 mmHg) from baseline after 20 minutes. Pe′CO2, fR and SpO2 showed no significant differences between treatments, whereas RT decreased significantly 25 minutes after vatinoxan. Level of anaesthesia was not significantly influenced by vatinoxan.Conclusions and clinical relevanceVatinoxan reversed hypertension and bradycardia induced by medetomidine without causing hypotension or affecting the level of anaesthesia in red deer. However, the effect on HR subsided 15 minutes after vatinoxan IV administration. Vatinoxan has the potential to reduce anaesthetic side effects in non-domestic ruminants immobilised with medetomidine–tiletamine–zolazepam.  相似文献

ObjectiveTo compare pulmonary function and gas exchange in ponies during maintenance of anaesthesia with isoflurane or by a total intravenous anaesthesia (TIVA) technique.Study designExperimental, cross–over study.AnimalsSix healthy ponies weighing mean 286 (range 233–388) ± SD 61 kg, age 13 (9-16) ± 3 years.MethodsThe ponies were anaesthetized twice, a minimum of two weeks apart. Following sedation with romifidine [80 μg kg?1 intravenously (IV)], anaesthesia was induced IV with midazolam (0.06 mg kg?1) and ketamine (2.5 mg kg?1), then maintained either with inhaled isoflurane (Fe’Iso = 1.1 vol%) (T-ISO) or an IV infusion of romifidine (120 μg kg?1 hour?1), midazolam (0.09 mg kg?1 hour?1 IV) and ketamine (3.3 mg kg?1 hour?1) (T-TIVA). Ponies were placed in lateral recumbency. Breathing was spontaneous and Fi’O2 60%. After an instrumentation/stabilisation period of 30 minutes, arterial and mixed venous blood samples were taken simultaneously every 10 minutes for 60 minutes and analysed immediately. Oxygen extraction ratio (O2ER) and venous admixture were calculated. Tidal volume (TV), minute volume (MV), respiratory rate (fR), packed cell volume (PCV), arterial blood pressure and heart rate (HR) were measured and recorded. Data were analysed with mixed model anova (a = 0.05). Treatments were compared overall and at two selected time points (T30 and T60) using Bonferroni correction.ResultsArterial and mixed venous partial pressures of O2 and CO2, and TV were significantly lower and MV and fR were higher in T-TIVA compared to T-ISO. Venous admixture did not differ between treatments. O2ER was significantly higher in T-TIVA. Mean arterial pressure was higher and HR was lower in T-TIVA compared to T-ISO.Conclusions and clinical relevanceWhilst arterial CO2 was within an acceptable range during both protocols, the impairment of oxygenation was more pronounced with the T-TIVA evidenced by lower arterial and venous oxygen partial pressures.  相似文献

ObjectiveTo evaluate the cardiorespiratory, sedative and antinociceptive effects of dexmedetomidine alone or in combination with methadone, morphine or tramadol in dogs.Study designExperimental, blinded, randomized, crossover study.AnimalsSix mixed breed dogs (two males and four females) weighing 10 ± 4 kg.MethodsThe animals were randomly divided into four treatments: D (10 μg kg?1 of dexmedetomidine), DM (dexmedetomidine 10 μg kg?1 and methadone 0.5 mg kg?1); DMO (dexmedetomidine 10 μg kg?1 and morphine 0.5 mg kg?1), and DT (dexmedetomidine 10 μg kg?1 and tramadol 2 mg kg?1). The combinations were administered intramuscularly in all treatments. The variables evaluated were heart rate (HR), respiratory rate (fR), rectal temperature (RT), systolic arterial pressure (SAP), sedation scale and pedal withdrawal reflex. These variables were measured at T0 (immediately before the administration of the protocol) and every 15 minutes thereafter until T105.ResultsA decrease in HR and fR occurred in all the treatments compared with T0, but no significant difference was observed between the treatments. The RT decreased from T45 onward in all the treatments. The SAP did not show a difference between the treatments, but in the DT treatment, the SAP was lower at T30 and T45 compared with T0. The D treatment had lower scores of sedation at T15 to T75 compared with the other treatments, and the DMO and DM treatments showed higher scores at T60 and T75 compared with DT.Conclusions and clinical relevanceThe treatments with morphine and methadone added to the dexmedetomidine showed higher sedation scores than the control treatment and the treatment with tramadol added to the dexmedetomidine showed no relevant differences in any of the variables evaluated in the study.  相似文献

ObjectiveTo compare cardiopulmonary function, recovery quality, and total dosages required for induction and 60 minutes of total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA) with propofol (P) or a 1:1 mg mL−1 combination of propofol and ketamine (KP).Study designRandomized crossover study.AnimalsTen female Beagles weighing 9.4 ± 1.8 kg.MethodsDogs were randomized for administration of P or KP in a 1:1 mg mL−1 ratio for induction and maintenance of TIVA. Baseline temperature, pulse, respiratory rate (fR), noninvasive mean blood pressure (MAP), and hemoglobin oxygen saturation (SpO2) were recorded. Dogs were intubated and spontaneously breathed room air. Heart rate (HR), fR, MAP, SpO2, end tidal carbon dioxide tension (Pe’CO2), temperature, and salivation score were recorded every 5 minutes. Arterial blood gas analysis was performed at 10, 30, and 60 minutes, and after recovery. At 60 minutes the infusion was discontinued and total drug administered, time to extubation, and recovery score were recorded. The other treatment was performed 1 week later.ResultsKP required significantly less propofol for induction (4.0 ± 1.0 mg kg−1 KP versus 5.3 ±1.1 mg kg−1 P, p = 0.0285) and maintenance (0.3 ± 0.1 mg kg−1 minute−1 KP versus 0.6 ±0.1 mg kg−1 minute−1 P, p = 0.0018). Significantly higher HR occurred with KP. Both P and KP caused significantly lower MAP compared to baseline. MAP was significantly higher with KP at several time points. P had minimal effects on respiratory variables, while KP resulted in significant respiratory depression. There were no significant differences in salivation scores, time to extubation, or recovery scores.Conclusions and clinical relevanceTotal intravenous anesthesia in healthy dogs with ketamine and propofol in a 1:1 mg mL−1 combination resulted in significant propofol dose reduction, higher HR, improved MAP, no difference in recovery quality, but more significant respiratory depression compared to propofol alone.  相似文献

ObjectiveTo investigate physiological and sedative/immobilization effects of medetomidine or dexmedetomidine combined with ketamine in free-ranging Chinese water deer (CWD).Study designProspective clinical trial.Animals10 free-ranging adult Chinese water deer (11.0 ± 2.6 kg).MethodsAnimals were darted intramuscularly with 0.08 ± 0.004 mg kg?1 medetomidine and 3.2 ± 0.2 mg kg?1 ketamine (MK) or 0.04 ± 0.01 mg kg?1 dexmedetomidine and 2.9 ± 0.1 mg kg?1 ketamine (DMK) If the animal was still laterally recumbent after 60 minutes of immobilization, atipamezole was administered intravenously (MK: 0.4 ± 0.02 mg kg?1, DMK: 0.2 ± 0.03 mg kg?1). Heart rate (HR) respiratory rate (fR) and temperature were recorded at 5-minute intervals. Arterial blood was taken 15 and 45 minutes after initial injection. Statistical analysis was performed using Student’s t-test or anova. p < 0.05 was considered significant.ResultsAnimals became recumbent rapidly in both groups. Most had involuntary ear twitches, but there was no response to external stimuli. There were no statistical differences in mean HR (MK: 75 ± 14 beats minute?1; DMK: 85 ± 21 beats minute?1), fR (MK: 51 ± 35 breaths minute?1; DMK; 36 ± 9 breaths minute?1), temperature (MK: 38.1 ± 0.7 °C; DMK: 38.4 ± 0.5 °C), blood gas values (MK: PaO2 63 ± 6 mmHg, PaCO2 49.6 ± 2.6 mmHg, HCO3? 30.8 ± 4.5 mmol L?1; DMK: PaO2 77 ± 35 mmHg, PaCO2 45.9 ± 11.5 mmHg, HCO3? 31.0 ± 4.5 mmol L?1) and biochemical values between groups but temperature decreased in both groups. All animals needed antagonism of immobilization after 60 minutes. Recovery was quick and uneventful. There were no adverse effects after recovery.Conclusion and clinical relevanceBoth anaesthetic protocols provided satisfactory immobilisation. There was no clear preference for either protocol and both appear suitable for CWD.  相似文献

ObjectiveTo characterize the impact of mechanical positive pressure ventilation on heart rate (HR), arterial blood pressure, blood gases, lactate, glucose, sodium, potassium and calcium concentrations in rattlesnakes during anesthesia and the subsequent recovery period.Study designProspective, randomized trial.AnimalsTwenty one fasted adult South American rattlesnakes (Crotalus durissus terrificus).MethodsSnakes were anesthetized with propofol (15 mg kg−1) intravenously, endotracheally intubated and assigned to one of four ventilation regimens: Spontaneous ventilation, or mechanical ventilation at a tidal volume of 30 mL kg−1 at 1 breath every 90 seconds, 5 breaths minute−1, or 15 breaths minute−1. Arterial blood was collected from indwelling catheters at 30, 40, and 60 minutes and 2, 6, and 24 hours following induction of anesthesia and analyzed for pH, PaO2, PaCO2, and selected variables. Mean arterial blood pressure (MAP) and HR were recorded at 30, 40, 60 minutes and 24 hours.ResultsSpontaneous ventilation and 1 breath every 90 seconds resulted in a mild hypercapnia (PaCO2 22.4 ± 4.3 mmHg [3.0 ± 0.6 kPa] and 24.5 ± 1.6 mmHg [3.3 ± 0.2 kPa], respectively), 5 breaths minute−1 resulted in normocapnia (14.2 ± 2.7 mmHg [1.9 ± 0.4 kPa]), while 15 breaths minute−1 caused marked hypocapnia (8.2 ± 2.5 mmHg [1.1 ± 0.3 kPa]). Following recovery, blood gases of the four groups were similar from 2 hours. Anesthesia, independent of ventilation was associated with significantly elevated glucose, lactate and potassium concentrations compared to values at 24 hours (p < 0.0001). MAP increased significantly with increasing ventilation frequency (p < 0.001). HR did not vary among regimens.Conclusions and clinical relevanceMechanical ventilation had a profound impact on blood gases and blood pressure. The results support the use of mechanical ventilation with a frequency of 1–2 breaths minute−1 at a tidal volume of 30 mL kg−1 during anesthesia in fasted snakes.  相似文献

ObjectiveTo evaluate the effects of intravenous lidocaine (L) and ketamine (K) alone and their combination (LK) on the minimum alveolar concentration (MAC) of sevoflurane (SEVO) in dogs.Study designProspective randomized, Latin-square experimental study.AnimalsSix, healthy, adult Beagles, 2 males, 4 females, weighing 7.8 – 12.8 kg.MethodsAnesthesia was induced with SEVO in oxygen delivered by face mask. The tracheas were intubated and the lungs ventilated to maintain normocapnia. Baseline minimum alveolar concentration of SEVO (MACB) was determined in duplicate for each dog using an electrical stimulus and then the treatment was initiated. Each dog received each of the following treatments, intravenously as a loading dose (LD) followed by a constant rate infusion (CRI): lidocaine (LD 2 mg kg−1, CRI 50 μg kg−1minute−1), lidocaine (LD 2 mg kg−1, CRI 100 μgkg−1 minute−1), lidocaine (LD 2 mg kg−1, CRI 200 μg kg−1 minute−1), ketamine (LD 3 mg kg−1, CRI 50 μg kg−1 minute−1), ketamine (LD 3 mgkg−1, CRI 100 μg kg−1 minute−1), or lidocaine (LD 2 mg kg−1, CRI 100 μg kg−1 minute−1) + ketamine (LD 3 mg kg−1, CRI 100 μg kg−1 minute−1) in combination. Post-treatment MAC (MACT) determination started 30 minutes after initiation of treatment.ResultsLeast squares mean ± SEM MACB of all groups was 1.9 ± 0.2%. Lidocaine infusions of 50, 100, and 200 μg kg−1 minute−1 significantly reduced MACB by 22.6%, 29.0%, and 39.6%, respectively. Ketamine infusions of 50 and 100 μg kg−1 minute−1 significantly reduced MACB by 40.0% and 44.7%, respectively. The combination of K and L significantly reduced MACB by 62.8%.Conclusions and clinical relevanceLidocaine and K, alone and in combination, decrease SEVO MAC in dogs. Their use, at the doses studied, provides a clinically important reduction in the concentration of SEVO during anesthesia in dogs.  相似文献

ObjectiveTo compare the cardiorespiratory, anesthetic-sparing effects and quality of anesthetic recovery after epidural and constant rate intravenous (IV) infusion of dexmedetomidine (DEX) in cats given a low dose of epidural lidocaine under propofol-isoflurane anesthesia and submitted to elective ovariohysterectomy.Study designRandomized, blinded clinical trial.AnimalsTwenty-one adult female cats (mean body weight: 3.1 ± 0.4 kg).MethodsCats received DEX (4 μg kg?1, IM). Fifteen minutes later, anesthesia was induced with propofol and maintained with isoflurane. Cats were divided into three groups. In GI cats received epidural lidocaine (1 mg kg?1, n = 7), in GII cats were given epidural lidocaine (1 mg kg?1) + DEX (4 μg kg?1, n = 7), and in GIII cats were given epidural lidocaine (1 mg kg?1) + IV constant rate infusion (CRI) of DEX (0.25 μg kg?1 minute?1, n = 7). Variables evaluated included heart rate (HR), respiratory rate (fR), systemic arterial pressures, rectal temperature (RT), end-tidal CO2, end-tidal isoflurane concentration (e′ISO), arterial blood gases, and muscle tone. Anesthetic recovery was compared among groups by evaluation of times to recovery, HR, fR, RT, and degree of analgesia. A paired t-test was used to evaluate pre-medication variables and blood gases within groups. anova was used to compare parametric data, whereas Friedman test was used to compare muscle relaxation.ResultsEpidural and CRI of DEX reduced HR during anesthesia maintenance. Mean ± SD e′ISO ranged from 0.86 ± 0.28% to 1.91 ± 0.63% in GI, from 0.70 ± 0.12% to 0.97 ± 0.20% in GII, and from 0.69 ± 0.12% to 1.17 ± 0.25% in GIII. Cats in GII and GIII had longer recovery periods than in GI.Conclusions and clinical relevanceEpidural and CRI of DEX significantly decreased isoflurane consumption and resulted in recovery of better quality and longer duration, despite bradycardia, without changes in systemic blood pressure.  相似文献

ObejctiveTo investigate the influence of calcium chloride (CaCl2) on the cardio–respiratory effects of enoximone in isoflurane anaesthetized ponies.Study designProspective consecutive experimental trial.AnimalsSix healthy ponies, weighing 287 ± 55 kg were included in this study.MethodsAfter sedation (romifidine, 80 μg kg?1), anaesthesia was induced with midazolam (0.06 mg kg?1) and ketamine (2.2 mg kg?1) and maintained with isoflurane in oxygen. The ponies’ lungs were ventilated to maintain normocapnia. After 90 minutes, a bolus of enoximone (0.5 mg kg?1) was administered, followed by a CaCl2 infusion (0.5 mg kg?1 minute?1 over 10 minutes) (treatment EC). Sodium, potassium, ionized and total calcium concentrations, cardiovascular variables and blood–gases were measured in the 120 minutes after treatment. Using a mixed model anova, the results were compared to those of a previous report [Vet Anaesth Analg, 34 (2007) 416], evaluating the effects of 0.5 mg kg?1 enoximone in the same ponies and under identical circumstances (treatment E). Both an overall comparison and comparisons at specific time points after treatment were performed (α = 0.05).ResultsAlthough ionized and total calcium concentrations were higher during treatment EC, the cardio–respiratory effects of enoximone were comparable for both treatments. A small but significant difference in packed cell volume was detected.Conclusions and clinical relevanceCalcium chloride did not enhance the effects of enoximone in normocalcaemic anaesthetized ponies.  相似文献

ObjectiveTo compare the sedative and clinical effects of intravenous (IV) administration of dexmedetomidine and xylazine in dromedary calves.Study designExperimental, crossover, randomized, blinded study.AnimalsA total of seven healthy male dromedary calves aged 14 ± 2 weeks and weighing 95 ± 5.5 kg.MethodsCalves were assigned three IV treatments: treatment XYL, xylazine (0.2 mg kg−1); treatment DEX, dexmedetomidine (5 μg kg−1); and control treatment, normal saline (0.01 mL kg−1). Sedation scores, heart rate (HR), respiratory rate (fR), rectal temperature (RT) and ruminal motility were recorded before (baseline) and after drug administration. Sedation signs were scored using a 4-point scale. One-way anova and Mann–Whitney U tests were used for data analysis.ResultsCalves in treatments XYL and DEX were sedated at 5–60 minutes. Sedation had waned in XYL calves, but not DEX calves, at 60 minutes (p = 0.037). Sedation was not present in calves of any treatment at 90 minutes. HR decreased from baseline in XYL and DEX at 5–90 minutes after drug administration and was lower in DEX than XYL at 5 minutes (p = 0.017). HR was lower in DEX (p = 0.001) and XYL (p = 0.013) than in control treatment at 90 minutes. fR decreased from baseline in XYL and DEX at 5–60 minutes after drug administration and was lower in DEX than XYL at 5 minutes (p = 0.013). RT was unchanged in any treatment over 120 minutes. Ruminal motility was decreased in XYL at 5, 90 and 120 minutes and absent at 10–60 minutes. Motility was decreased in DEX at 5, 10 and 120 minutes and was absent at 15–90 minutes.Conclusion and clinical relevanceThe duration of sedation from dexmedetomidine (5 μg kg–1) and xylazine (0.2 mg kg–1) was similar in dromedary calves.  相似文献

ObjectiveTo compare anti-nociceptive and sedative effects of tramadol, a combination of tramadol-lidocaine, and lidocaine alone for perineal analgesia in donkeys.Study designExperimental ‘blinded’ randomized cross-over study.AnimalsSix healthy adult donkeys.MethodsTreatments were tramadol (TR) (1.0 mg kg−1), tramadol-lidocaine (TRLD) (0.5 and 0.2 mg kg−1 respectively) and lidocaine (LD) (0.4 mg kg−1) given into the epidural space. The volume of all treatments was 0.02 mL kg−1. Nociception was tested at the perineal region by pin prick, followed, if no reaction, by pressure from a haemostat clamp. Times to onset, degree and duration of anti-nociception of the perineal region were recorded. Response was tested immediately after drug administration and at: 2, 5, 10, 15, 30, 45, and 60 minutes post-administration and then at 30 minute intervals thereafter until a response re-occurred. Physiologic data and degree of sedation and ataxia were recorded pre-administration and at intervals for 240 minutes post-administration. Results were analyzed using anova, Kruskal–Wallis tests, and Wilks’ Lambda test as relevant. Significance was taken as p < 0.05.ResultsTimes (minutes, mean ± SD) to onset and duration of anti-nociception, respectively were; TR 13 ± 1.6 and 220 ± 4.6; TRLD 6 ± 0.8 and 180 ± 8.5; LD 4 ± 1.4 and 75 ± 4. Onset and duration times were significantly longer with TR than the other two treatments. TR never produced complete anti-nociception, whereas the TRLD and LD induced complete anti-nociceptive effects. Duration was significantly longer with TRLD than with LD alone. Epidural injections of TR and TRLD induced mild sedation.Conclusions and clinical relevanceEpidural combination of TRLD produced an anti-nociceptive effect in the perineum, which was rapid in onset and had a longer duration of action than LD alone. An epidural single dose of TRLD combination would appear to provide an acceptable analgesic effect in the perineal region of donkeys.  相似文献

ObjectiveTo investigate the cardiorespiratory, nociceptive and endocrine effects of the combination of propofol and remifentanil, in dogs sedated with acepromazine.Study designProspective randomized, blinded, cross-over experimental trial.AnimalsTwelve healthy adult female cross-breed dogs, mean weight 18.4 ± 2.3 kg.MethodsDogs were sedated with intravenous (IV) acepromazine (0.05 mg kg?1) followed by induction of anesthesia with IV propofol (5 mg kg?1). Anesthesia was maintained with IV propofol (0.2 mg kg?1 minute?1) and remifentanil, infused as follows: R1, 0.125 μg kg?1 minute?1; R2, 0.25 μg kg?1 minute?1; and R3, 0.5 μg kg?1 minute?1. The same dogs were administered each dose of remifentanil at 1-week intervals. Heart rate (HR), mean arterial pressure (MAP), respiratory rate (fR), end tidal CO2 (Pe′CO2), arterial hemoglobin O2 saturation, blood gases, and rectal temperature were measured before induction, and 5, 15, 30, 45, 60, 75, 90, and 120 minutes after beginning the infusion. Nociceptive response was investigated by electrical stimulus (50 V, 5 Hz and 10 ms). Blood samples were collected for plasma cortisol measurements. Statistical analysis was performed by anova (p < 0.05).ResultsIn all treatments, HR decreased during anesthesia with increasing doses of remifentanil, and increased significantly immediately after the end of infusion. MAP remained stable during anesthesia (72–98 mmHg). Antinociception was proportional to the remifentanil infusion dose, and was considered satisfactory only with R2 and R3. Plasma cortisol concentration decreased during anesthesia in all treatments. Recovery was smooth and fast in all dogs.Conclusions and clinical relevanceInfusion of 0.25–0.5 μg kg?1 minute?1 remifentanil combined with 0.2 mg kg?1 minute?1 propofol produced little effect on arterial blood pressure and led to a good recovery. The analgesia produced was sufficient to control the nociceptive response applied by electrical stimulation, suggesting that it may be appropriate for performing surgery.  相似文献

ObjectiveTo compare isoflurane alone or in combination with systemic ketamine and lidocaine for general anaesthesia in horses.Study designProspective, randomized, blinded clinical trial.AnimalsForty horses (ASA I-III) undergoing elective surgery.MethodsHorses were assigned to receive isoflurane anaesthesia alone (ISO) or with ketamine and lidocaine (LKI). After receiving romifidine, diazepam, and ketamine, the isoflurane end-tidal concentration was set at 1.3% and subsequently adjusted by the anaesthetist (unaware of treatments) to maintain a light plane of surgical anaesthesia. Animals in the LKI group received lidocaine (1.5 mg kg−1 over 10 minutes, followed by 40 μg kg−1 minute−1) and ketamine (60 μg kg−1 minute−1), both reduced to 65% of the initial dose after 50 minutes, and stopped 15 minutes before the end of anaesthesia. Standard clinical cardiovascular and respiratory parameters were monitored. Recovery quality was scored from one (very good) to five (very poor). Differences between ISO and LKI groups were analysed with a two-sample t-test for parametric data or a Fischer's exact test for proportions (p < 0.05 for significance). Results are mean ± SD.ResultsHeart rate was lower (p = 0.001) for LKI (29 ± 4) than for ISO (34 ± 6). End-tidal concentrations of isoflurane (ISO: 1.57% ± 0.22; LKI: 0.97% ± 0.33), the number of horses requiring thiopental (ISO: 10; LKI: 2) or dobutamine (ISO:8; LKI:3), and dobutamine infusion rates (ISO:0.26 ± 0.09; LKI:0.18 ± 0.06 μg kg−1 minute−1) were significantly lower in LKI compared to the ISO group (p < 0.001). No other significant differences were found, including recovery scores.Conclusions and clinical relevanceThese results support the use of lidocaine and ketamine to improve anaesthetic and cardiovascular stability during isoflurane anaesthesia lasting up to 2 hours in mechanically ventilated horses, with comparable quality of recovery.  相似文献

ObjectiveTo evaluate the heart rate (HR) and systemic arterial pressure (sAP) effects, and propofol induction dose requirements in healthy dogs administered propofol with or without guaifenesin for the induction of anesthesia.Study designProspective blinded crossover experimental study.AnimalsA total of 10 healthy adult female Beagle dogs.MethodsDogs were premedicated with intravenous (IV) butorphanol (0.4 mg kg–1) and administered guaifenesin 5% at 50 mg kg–1 (treatment G50), 100 mg kg–1 (treatment G100) or saline (treatment saline) IV prior to anesthetic induction with propofol. HR, invasive sAP and respiratory rate (fR) were recorded after butorphanol administration, after guaifenesin administration and after propofol and endotracheal intubation. Propofol doses for intubation were recorded. Repeated measures analysis of variance (anova) was used to determine differences in propofol dose requirements among treatments, and differences in cardiopulmonary values over time and among treatments with p < 0.05 considered statistically significant.ResultsPropofol doses (mean ± standard deviation) for treatments saline, G50 and G100 were 3.3 ± 1.0, 2.7 ± 0.7 and 2.1 ± 0.8 mg kg–1, respectively. Propofol administered was significantly lower in treatment G100 than in treatment saline (p = 0.04). In treatments G50 and G100, HR increased following induction of anesthesia and intubation compared with baseline measurements. HR was higher in treatment G100 than in treatments G50 and saline following induction of anesthesia. In all treatments, sAP decreased following intubation compared with baseline values. There were no significant differences in sAP among treatments. fR was lower following intubation than baseline and post co-induction values and did not differ significantly among treatments.Conclusions and clinical relevanceWhen administered as a co-induction agent in dogs, guaifenesin reduced propofol requirements for tracheal intubation. HR increased and sAP and fR decreased, but mean values remained clinically acceptable.  相似文献

ObjectiveTo compare the cardiopulmonary effects of intravenous (IV) and intramuscular (IM) medetomidine and butorphanol with or without MK-467.Study designProspective, randomized experimental cross-over.AnimalsEight purpose–bred beagles (two females, six males), 3–4 years old and weighing 14.5 ±1.6 kg (mean ± SD).MethodsAll dogs received four different treatments as follows: medetomidine 20 μg kg?1 and butorphanol tartrate 0.1 mg kg?1 IV and IM (MB), and MB combined with MK-467,500 μg kg?1 (MBMK) IV and IM. Heart rate (HR), arterial blood pressures (SAP, MAP, DAP), central venous pressure (CVP), cardiac output, respiratory rate (fR), rectal temperature (RT) were measured and arterial blood samples were obtained for gas analysis at baseline and at 3, 10, 20, 30, 45 and 60 minutes after drug administration. The cardiac index (CI), systemic vascular resistance index (SVRI) and oxygen delivery index (DO2I) were calculated. After the follow-up period atipamezole 50 μg kg?1 IM was given to reverse sedation.ResultsHR, CI and DO2I were significantly higher with MBMK after both IV and IM administration. Similarly, SAP, MAP, DAP, CVP, SVRI and RT were significantly lower after MBMK than with MB. There were no differences in fR between treatments, but arterial partial pressure of oxygen decreased transiently after all treatments. Recoveries were uneventful following atipamezole administration after all treatments.Conclusions and clinical relevanceMK-467 attenuated the cardiovascular effects of a medetomidine-butorphanol combination after IV and IM administration.  相似文献

ObjectiveInvestigate physiological and sedative/anaesthetic effects of xylazine, medetomidine or dexmedetomidine combined with ketamine in free-ranging Bennett's wallabies.Study designProspective clinical trial.AnimalsTwenty-six adult free-ranging Bennett's wallabies.MethodsAnimals were darted intramuscularly with one of three treatments: xylazine and ketamine, 2.0 and 15.0 mg kg?1, respectively (XK): medetomidine and ketamine 0.1 and 5.0 mg kg?1 (MK) and dexmedetomidine and ketamine 0.05 and 5.0 mg kg?1 (DMK). Body weights were estimated. If the animal was still laterally recumbent after 45 minutes of anaesthesia, then an alpha-2 adrenoceptor antagonist, atipamezole, was administered (XK: 0.4 mg kg?1, MK: 5 mg kg?1, DMK: 2.5 mg kg?1). Heart rate (HR) and respiratory rate (fR) were recorded at 5-minute intervals and temperature at 10-minute intervals. Venous blood was taken 30 minutes after initial injection. Statistical analysis utilized anova. p < 0.05 was considered significant.ResultsAnimals became recumbent rapidly in all groups. XK animals had muscle twitches, responded to external stimuli, and three animals required additional dosing; this was not observed in the MK and DMK groups. HR (mean ± SD beats minute?1) in XK (81 ± 4) was significantly higher than MK (74 ± 2) and DMK (67 ± 4). There were no differences in fR, temperature, blood-gas and biochemical values between groups. More animals in MK (9/10) and DMK (5/6) needed antagonism of anaesthesia compared with XK (1/10). There were no adverse effects after anaesthesia.Conclusion and clinical relevanceCardio-respiratory effects were similar in all groups. There were fewer muscle twitches and reactions to external stimuli in MK and DMK. Duration of anaesthesia was shorter in XK; most animals in MK and DMK needed atipamezole to assist recovery. All three treatments provided satisfactory sedation/anaesthesia and are suitable for use in Bennett's wallabies.  相似文献

ObjectiveTo examine the relationship between body mass and thoracic dimensions on arterial oxygen tensions (PaO2) in anaesthetized horses and ponies positioned in dorsal recumbency.Study designProspective clinical study.AnimalsThirty six client-owned horses and ponies, mean [±SD (range)] age 8.1 ± 4.8 (1.5–20) years and mean body mass 467 ± 115 (203–656) kg.MethodsBefore general anaesthesia, food and water were withheld for 12 and 1 hours respectively. Body mass (kg), height at the withers (H), thoracic circumference (C), thoracic depth (length between dorsal spinous process and sternum; D), thoracic width (between point of shoulders; W), and thoracic diagonal length (point of shoulder to last rib; L) were measured. Pre-anaesthetic medication was with intravenous (IV) romifidine (0.1 mg kg−1). Anaesthesia was induced with an IV ketamine (2.2 mg kg−1) and diazepam (0.05 mg kg−1) combination and maintained with halothane in 1:1 oxygen:nitrous oxide (N2O) mixture. Animals were positioned in dorsal recumbency and allowed to breathe spontaneously. Nitrous oxide was discontinued after 10 minutes, and arterial blood samples obtained and analysed for gas tensions at 15, 30 and 60 minutes after connection to the anaesthetic breathing circuit. Data were analysed using anova and Pearson's correlation co-efficient.ResultsThe height per unit body mass (H kg−1) and thoracic circumference per unit body mass (C kg−1) correlated strongly (r = 0.85, p < 0.001 and r = 0.82, p < 0.001 respectively) with arterial oxygen tensions (PaO2) at 15 minutes.ConclusionsThere is a strong positive correlation between H kg−1 and C kg−1 and PaO2 after 15 minutes of anaesthesia in halothane-anaesthetized horses positioned in dorsal recumbency.Clinical relevanceReadily obtained linear measurements (height and thoracic circumference) and body mass may be used to predict the ability of horses to oxygenate during anaesthesia.  相似文献
