ObjectivesTo evaluate the sedative effects and pharmacokinetics of detomidine gel administered intravaginally to alpacas in comparison with intravenously (IV) administered detomidine.Study designRandomized, crossover, blinded experiment.AnimalsA group of six healthy adult female Huacaya alpacas (70.3 ± 7.9 kg).MethodsAlpacas were studied on two occasions separated by ≥5 days. Treatments were IV detomidine hydrochloride (70 μg kg−1; treatment DET–IV) or detomidine gel (200 μg kg−1; treatment DET–VAG) administered intravaginally. Sedation and heart rate (HR) were evaluated at intervals for 240 minutes. Venous blood was collected at intervals for 360 minutes after treatment for analysis of detomidine, carboxydetomidine and hydroxydetomidine using liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry. Measured variables were compared between treatments and over time using mixed model analysis. Data are presented as the mean ± standard error of the mean, and a p value of <0.05 was considered significant.ResultsOnset of sedation was faster in treatment DET–IV (1.6 ± 0.2 minutes) than in treatment DET–VAG (13.0 ± 2.5 minutes). Time to maximum sedation was shorter in treatment DET–IV (8.3 ± 1.3 minutes) than in treatment DET–VAG (25 ± 4 minutes). Duration of sedation was not different between treatments. There was a significant linear relationship between sedation score and plasma detomidine concentration. HR was less than baseline for 60 and 125 minutes for treatments DET–IV and DET–VAG, respectively. The maximal decrease in HR occurred at 15 minutes for both treatments. The mean maximum plasma concentration of detomidine, time to maximum concentration and bioavailability for treatment DET–VAG were 39.6 ng mL−1, 19.9 minutes and 20%, respectively.Conclusions and clinical relevanceDetomidine administration at the doses studied resulted in moderate sedation when administered IV or intravaginally to alpacas.  相似文献

This study was performed to evaluate the sedative and analgesic effects of xylazine (X) and tramadol (T) intravenously (IV) administered to horses. Six thoroughbred saddle horses each received X (1.0 mg/kg), T (2.0 mg/kg), and a combination of XT (1.0 and 2.0 mg/kg, respectively) IV. Heart rate (HR), respiratory rate (RR), rectal temperature (RT), indirect arterial pressure (IAP), capillary refill time (CRT), sedation, and analgesia (using electrical stimulation and pinprick) were measured before and after drug administration. HR and RR significantly decreased from basal values with X and XT treatments, and significantly increased with T treatment (p < 0.05). RT and IAP also significantly increased with T treatment (p < 0.05). CRT did not change significantly with any treatments. The onset of sedation and analgesia were approximately 5 min after both X and XT treatments; however, the XT combination produced a longer duration of sedation and analgesia than X alone. Two horses in the XT treatment group displayed excited transient behavior within 5 min of drug administration. The results suggest that the XT combination is useful for sedation and analgesia in horses. However, careful monitoring for excited behavior shortly after administration is recommended.  相似文献

The objective of this study was to compare effects of butorphanol (BUT) or buprenorphine (BUP), in combination with detomidine and diazepam, on the sedation quality, surgical conditions, and postoperative pain control after cheek tooth extraction in horses, randomly allocated to 2 treatment groups (BUT: n = 20; BUP: n = 20). A bolus of detomidine (15 μg/kg, IV) was followed by either BUP (7.5 μg/kg, IV) or BUT (0.05 mg/kg, IV). After 20 min, diazepam (0.01 mg/kg, IV) was administered and sedation was maintained with a detomidine IV infusion (20 μg/kg/h), with rate adjusted based on scores to 5 variables. All horses received a nerve block (maxillary or mandibular), and gingival infiltration with mepivacaine. Sedation quality was assessed by the surgeon from 1 (excellent) to 10 (surgery not feasible). A pain scoring system (EQUUS-FAP) was used to assess postoperative pain. Serum cortisol concentrations and locomotor activity (pedometers) were measured.Horses in BUP and BUT required a median detomidine infusion rate of 30.2 μg/kg/h (20 to 74.4 μg/kg/h) and 32.2 μg/kg/h (20 to 48.1 μg/kg/h), respectively (P = 0.22). Horses in the BUP group had better sedation quality (P < 0.05) during surgery and higher step counts (P < 0.001) postoperatively. Buprenorphine combined with detomidine provided a more reliable sedation than butorphanol. However, the EQUUS-FAP pain scale became unreliable because of BUP-induced excitement behavior.  相似文献

ObjectiveTo evaluate the sedative effects of intravenous (IV) medetomidine (1 μg kg?1) and butorphanol (0.1 mg kg?1) alone and in combination in dogs.Study designProspective, blinded, randomized clinical trial.AnimalsSixty healthy (American Society of Anesthesiologists I) dogs, aged 6.2 ± 3.2 years and body mass 26 ± 12.5 kg.MethodsDogs were assigned to four groups: Group S (sodium chloride 0.9% IV), Group B (butorphanol IV), Group M (medetomidine IV) and Group MB (medetomidine and butorphanol IV). The same clinician assessed sedation before and 12 minutes after administration using a numerical scoring system in which 19 represented maximum sedation. Heart rate (HR), respiratory rate, pulse quality, capillary refill time and rectal temperature were recorded after each sedation score assessment. Sedation scores, sedation score difference (score after minus score before administration) and patient variables were compared using one-way anova for normally distributed variables and Kruskal–Wallis test for variables with skewed distributions and/or unequal variances. Where significance was found, further evaluation used Bonferroni multiple comparisons for pair-wise testing.ResultsBreed, sex, neuter status, age and body mass did not differ between groups. Sedation scores before substance administration were similar between groups (p = 0.2). Sedation scores after sedation were significantly higher in Group MB (mean 9.5 ± SD 5.5) than in group S (2.5 ± 1.8) (p < 0.001), group M (3.1 ± 2.5) (p < 0.001) and group B (3.7 ± 2.0) (p = 0.003). Sedation score difference was significantly higher in Group MB [7 (0–13)] than in Group S [0 (?1 to 4)] (p < 0.001) and Group M [0 (0–6)] (p < 0.001). HR decreased significantly in Groups M and MB compared with Group S (p < 0.05).Conclusion and clinical relevanceLow-dose medetomidine 1 μg kg?1 IV combined with butorphanol 0.1 mg kg?1 IV produced more sedation than medetomidine or butorphanol alone. HR was significantly decreased in both medetomidine groups.  相似文献

The objective of this study was to determine the effect of body position, chest wrap, and sedation on functional residual capacity (FRC) in 6 healthy dogs. Functional residual capacity was determined by helium dilution (re-breathing) whilst in different clinically relevant conditions. These conditions included the standing (sternal) and lateral positions in unsedated dogs and then again both standing and lateral following chest bandaging, and sedation with acepromazine, IV and butorphanol, IV. The mean FRC at each measurement point was determined, as was the change in FRC (delta FRC) from one measurement point to another. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) with repeated measures with Fisher’s LSD post hoc test was used to evaluate the effect of interventions. The differences in delta FRC were evaluated using a t-test or Wilcoxon rank-sum test. P < 0.05 was considered significant. The mean FRC at baseline, defined as standing, unsedated and unwrapped, was 75.3 ± 23.8 mL/kg. Body position or sedation had the most profound effect on FRC with right lateral recumbency lowering FRC by a median of 20.4 mL/kg and sedation lowering FRC by a median of 19.8 mL/kg. Common clinical procedures and positioning result in lowered FRC in healthy deep-chested dogs. In critically ill or injured dogs, the iatrogenic loss of FRC through chest bandaging, sedation, or body position may be clinically relevant.  相似文献

ObjectiveTo determine the cardiovascular effects of a proprietary l-methadone/fenpipramide combination (Polamivet) alone and in addition to acepromazine in dogs.Study designProspective, randomized, experimental crossover study.AnimalsFive adult healthy Beagle dogs (one male and four females, weighing 12.8–16.4 kg).MethodsDogs were instrumented for haemodynamic measurements whilst anaesthetized with isoflurane. Three hours after recovery dogs received 0.025 mg kg?1 acepromazine (AP) or saline (SP) IM followed by 0.5 mg kg?1L-methadone/ 0.025 mg kg?1 fenpipramide IV after 30 minutes. Cardiac output using thermodilution, heart rate, mean arterial pressure (MAP), central venous pressure (CVP), mean pulmonary artery pressure (MPAP), pulmonary artery occlusion pressure (PAOP), haemoglobin concentration, arterial and mixed-venous blood gas analysis were measured and sedation evaluated at baseline (BL), 30 minutes after acepromazine or saline IM (A/S), 5 minutes after L-methadone/fenpipramide IV application (35), every 15 minutes for 1 hour (50, 65, 80, 95 minutes) and every hour until baseline cardiac output was regained. Standard cardiovascular parameters were calculated. Data were analyzed by repeated measures anova and paired t-tests with p < 0.05 considered significant.ResultsBaseline measurements did not differ. Cardiac index decreased after acepromazine administration in treatment AP (p = 0.027), but was not significantly influenced after l-methadone/fenpipramide injection in either treatment. In both treatments heart rate did not change significantly over time. Stroke volume index increased after A/S in both treatments (p = 0.049). Systemic vascular resistance index, MAP, CVP, MPAP, and pulmonary vascular resistance index did not change significantly after either treatment and did not differ between treatments. Dogs were deeply sedated in both treatments with a longer duration in treatment AP.Conclusions and clinical relevanceIn healthy dogs the dose of l-methadone/fenpipramide used in this study alone and in combination with acepromazine induced deep sedation without significant cardiovascular changes.  相似文献

ObjectiveTo compare the clinical usefulness of constant rate infusion (CRI) protocols of romifidine with or without butorphanol for sedation of horses.Study designProspective ‘blinded’ controlled trial using block randomization.AnimalsForty healthy Freiberger stallions.MethodsThe horses received either intravenous (IV) romifidine (loading dose: 80 μg kg?1; infusion: 30 μg kg?1 hour?1) (treatment R, n = 20) or romifidine combined with butorphanol (romifidine loading: 80 μg kg?1; infusion: 29 μg kg?1 hour?1, and butorphanol loading: 18 μg kg?1; infusion: 25 μg kg?1 hour?1) (treatment RB, n = 20). Twenty-one horses underwent dentistry and ophthalmic procedures, while 19 horses underwent only ophthalmologic procedure and buccal examination. During the procedure, physiologic parameters and occurrence of head/muzzle shaking or twitching and forward movement were recorded. Whenever sedation was insufficient, additional romifidine (20 μg kg?1) was administered IV. Recovery time was evaluated by assessing head height above ground. At the end of the procedure, overall quality of sedation for the procedure was scored by the dentist and anaesthetist using a visual analogue scale. Statistical analyses used two-way anova or linear mixed models as relevant.ResultsSedation quality scores as assessed by the anaesthetist were R: median 7.55, range: 4.9–9.0 cm, RB: 8.8, 4.7–10.0 cm, and by the dentist R: 6.6, 3.0–8.2 cm, RB: 7.9, 6.6–8.8 cm. Horses receiving RB showed clinically more effective sedation as demonstrated by fewer poor scores and a tendency to reduced additional drug requirements. More horses showed forward movement and head shaking in treatment RB than treatment R. Three horses (two RB, one R) had symptoms of colic following sedation.Conclusions and clinical relevanceThe described protocols provide effective sedation under clinical conditions but for dentistry procedures, the addition of butorphanol is advantageous.  相似文献

Objective

To compare the topographic modifications and tactile sensitivity of the pharynx and larynx after administration of four sedative and analgesic protocols in standing horses.

Study design

Experimental, observer-blinded, crossover study.

Animals

Eight healthy mares.

Methods

Five protocols were evaluated: 1) xylazine and butorphanol administered intravenously (IV); 2) detomidine and butorphanol administered IV; 3) xylazine administered IV and lidocaine topically; 4) detomidine administered IV and lidocaine topically and 5) no analgesia or sedation (control). Quality of sedation, head height and sudden head movements were recorded. The degree of arytenoid cartilage displacement, the degree of pharyngeal collapse and the occurrence of soft palate displacement were scored using standardized scales. Tactile sensitivity was tested on 10 different pharyngeal and laryngeal regions using an atraumatic transendoscopic probe. Statistical analysis was performed using linear or generalized mixed-effects models.

Results

Head height was significantly decreased in protocols with xylazine (p = 0.002). Head movements were significantly increased in protocols with butorphanol (p = 0.0001). No changes in abduction grade or degree of soft palate displacement were observed between all sedative protocols and the control group. Pharyngeal collapse was significantly more frequent in protocols with lidocaine (p < 0.001) or xylazine (p = 0.017). For the pharyngeal regions, no tactile sensitivity difference was observed between the control and treatment protocols. All treatment protocols led to greater desensitization of all the laryngeal regions compared with the control protocol.

Conclusion and clinical relevance

All the protocols provided adequate sedation and analgesia for the manipulation of the larynx and pharynx but significant differences were noted. Xylazine produces a more profound sedation compared with detomidine, but can induce dorsal pharyngeal collapse. Lidocaine caused pharyngeal collapse and its use should be limited to the target area. Butorphanol can be added to improve analgesia in the other regions but frequent head jerking can be expected.  相似文献

ObjectiveTo record, with a thermal camera, peripheral temperature changes during different sedation protocols and to relate the results to changes in the rectal temperature.Study designRandomized crossover part-blinded experimental study.AnimalsEight healthy purpose-bred neutered Beagles (two females and six males) weight 14.5 ± 1.6 kg (mean ± SD) and aged 3–4 years.MethodsEach dog was sedated four times. Treatments were medetomidine 20 μg kg?1 and butorphanol 0.1 mg kg?1 (MB) with or without MK-467 500 μg kg?1 (MK). Both drug combinations were administered IV and IM as separate treatments. A thermal camera (T425, FLIR) with a resolution of 320 by 240 was used for imaging.The dogs were placed in lateral recumbency on an insulated mattress. Digital (DFT) and metatarsal footpad temperatures (MFT) were measured with thermography. Thermograms and rectal temperature (RT) were taken before and at 3, 10, 20, 30, 45 and 60 minutes after treatment.ResultsAt 60 minutes after drug administration, MFT was higher (p < 0.001) after MB+MK (34.5 ± 1.1 IV, 34.8 ± 0.5 IM) than MB (31.1 ± 2.9 IV, 30.5 ± 3.6 IM), DFT was higher (p < 0.001) after MB+MK (33.6 ± 1.4 IV, 34.0 ± 0.6 IM) than MB (26.7 ± 1.4 IV, 26.7 ± 2.5 IM), and RT was lower (p < 0.001) after MB+MK (36.7 ± 0.8 IV, 36.9 ± 0.3 IM) than MB (37.5 ± 0.3 IV, 37.4 ± 0.4 IM), with both routes. The change from baseline was greater with MB+MK than MB in all variables.ConclusionsSuperficial temperature changes can be seen and detected with thermography. MK-467 used with MB resulted in increased superficial temperatures and a decline in rectal temperature compared to MB alone.Clinical relevanceThe sedation protocol may influence core temperature loss, and may also have an effect on thermographic images.  相似文献

ObjectiveTo evaluate the sedative effects of a combination of sufentanil and midazolam administered intramuscularly (IM) or intranasally (IN) prior to induction of anesthesia with propofol in New Zealand White rabbits.Study designProspective, randomized, crossover, experimental study.AnimalsA total of 11 adult New Zealand White rabbits.MethodsSufentanil (0.5 μg kg–1) and midazolam (2 mg kg–1) were administered to rabbits via IM or IN route. The righting reflex was assessed, and sedation was scored. Heart rate, respiratory rate (fR) and temperature were recorded prior to treatment administration and after loss of the righting reflex.ResultsMeasured variables remained within normal physiologic ranges for all rabbits. The only statistically significant change was for fR, which was significantly lower after sedation for both routes. The time to loss of righting reflex was 14.8 ± 6.5 and 12.5 ± 7.4 minutes and sedation scores were 6 (4–8) and 7 (6–8) for IM and IN routes, respectively, with no difference between treatments. No adverse effects were observed during the experimental period.Conclusions and clinical relevanceSufentanil combined with midazolam administered either IM or IN resulted in moderate to deep sedation in New Zealand White rabbits at the dose rates studied.  相似文献

ObjectiveTo study the effects of oromucosal detomidine gel administered sublingually to calves prior to disbudding, and to compare its efficacy with intravenously (IV) administered detomidine.Study designRandomised, prospective clinical study.AnimalsTwenty dairy calves aged 12.4 ± 4.4days (mean ± SD), weight 50.5 ± 9.0 kg.MethodsDetomidine at 80 μg kg?1 was administered to ten calves sublingually (GEL) and at 30 μg kg?1 to ten control calves IV (V. jugularis). Meloxicam (0.5 mg kg?1) and local anaesthetic (lidocaine 3 mg kg?1) were administered before heat cauterization of horn buds. Heart rate (HR), body temperature and clinical sedation were monitored over 240 minutes. Blood was collected from the V. cephalica during the same period for drug concentration analysis. Pharmacokinetic variables were calculated from the plasma detomidine concentration-time data using non-compartmental methods. Statistical analyses compared routes of administration by Student’s t-test and linear mixed models as relevant.ResultsThe maximum plasma detomidine concentration after GEL was 2.1 ± 1.2 ng mL?1 (mean ±SD) and the time of maximum concentration was 66.0 ± 36.9 minutes. The bioavailability of detomidine was approximately 34% with GEL. Similar sedation scores were reached in both groups after administration of detomidine, but maximal sedation was reached earlier in the IV group (10 minutes) than in the GEL group (40 minutes). HR was lower after IV than GEL from 5 to 10 minutes after administration. All animals were adequately sedated, and we were able to administer local anaesthetic without resistance to all of the calves before disbudding.Conclusions and clinical relevanceOromucosally administered detomidine is an effective sedative agent for calves prior to disbudding.  相似文献

Standing surgical procedures are performed commonly in horses under sedation. The use of a xylazine and remifentanil combination has not been investigated in horses. We proposed to evaluate behavioral and cardiopulmonary effects of an intravenous (IV) infusion of xylazine with remifentanil for sedation in horses. Xylazine (0.8 mg/kg IV) followed in 3 minutes by remifentanil (0.0005 mg/kg IV), and a constant rate infusion of xylazine and remifentanil (0.65 mg/kg/h; 0.0225 mg/kg/h, respectively) was administered in three horses. Heart rate, respiratory rate (RR), arterial blood pressures, quality of sedation, pH, partial pressure of arterial CO2 (PaCO2), partial pressure of arterial O2 (PaO2), ataxia, sedation, and sedation overall outcome were assessed. Heart rate and RR remained within normal values during sedation without significant changes from baseline. Systolic, mean, and diastolic arterial blood pressures were increased during sedation. There were no significant changes in pH, PaCO2, and PaO2. Sedation developed immediately after injection of xylazine in the three horses but did not increase after remifentanil bolus or IV infusion of both drugs. None of the mares had ataxia. Adverse effects during and after sedation were present: excitement, increase in locomotor activity, and decrease in the gastrointestinal motility. The combination of xylazine and remifentanil sedation protocol produces adverse effects. This protocol cannot be recommended for clinical conditions, at the described doses.  相似文献

ObjectiveTo evaluate the clinical effectiveness and the sedative and analgesic effects of intravenous (IV) romifidine in camels.Study designRandomized prospective study.AnimalsEighteen healthy adult Dromedary camels.MethodsRomifidine was administered IV to camels (n = 6) at three different doses (40, 80 or 120 μg kg?1). Time of onset, degree and duration of sedation and analgesia were recorded immediately after drug administration. Heart rate, respiratory rate, ruminal contractions, muscle relaxation, response to auditory and tactile stimulation, distance between ears, distance from lower lip to the ground, and degree of ataxia were also recorded pre-administration and at 5, 15, 30, 45, 60, 90, 120 and 180 minutes post-administration. Plasma glucose, blood urea nitrogen and creatinine were measured.ResultsRomifidine produced dose dependent sedation and analgesia. Significant decreases in heart rate (p < 0.001), ruminal contractions (p < 0.05), distance from lower lip to the ground (p < 0.001), response to auditory and tactile stimuli (p < 0.01), and significant increases in the degree of ataxia (p < 0.01), distance between the ear tips (p < 0.001) and blood glucose (p < 0.01) concentration were recorded after administration of romifidine until recovery. However, no significant changes in rectal temperature and respiratory rate were recorded.Conclusions and clinical relevanceIntravenous administration of romifidine at three different doses appeared to be an effective sedative and analgesic agent for camels. Bradycardia, ruminal atony, and hyperglycemia were the most important adverse effects after IV administration of romifidine. The IV administration of romifidine at a dose rate of 120 μg kg?1 caused profound sedation and analgesia. Romifidine could be used for chemical restraint for a variety of diagnostic and minor surgical procedures in camels.  相似文献

ObjectiveTo characterise four different intramuscular (IM) anaesthetic protocols, two with alfaxalone and two with alfaxalone in combination with medetomidine in terrestrial tortoises.Study designBlinded, randomized, cross‐over experimental study.AnimalsNine healthy adult male Horsfield's tortoises (Agrionemys horsfieldii).MethodsEach tortoise was randomly assigned to one of four different protocols: 1) 10 mg kg?1 alfaxalone; 2) 10 mg kg?1 alfaxalone + 0.10 mg kg?1 medetomidine; 3) 20 mg kg?1 alfaxalone; and 4) 20 mg kg?1 alfaxalone + 0.05 mg kg?1 medetomidine. During the experiment, the following variables were recorded: heart rate; respiratory rate; peripheral nociceptive responses; muscle strength; ability to intubate; palpebral, corneal and tap reflexes; and cloacal temperature.ResultsProtocols 1 and 2 resulted in moderate sedation with no analgesia, and moderate to deep sedation with minimal analgesia, respectively. Protocols 3 and 4 resulted in deep sedation or anaesthesia with variable analgesic effect; these two protocols had the longest total anaesthetic time and allowed intubation in 6/9 and 8/9 tortoises respectively. The total anaesthesia/sedation time produced by alfaxalone was significantly increased (p <0.05) by the addition of medetomidine. There were no significant differences regarding time to plateau phase and duration of plateau phase. Baseline heart rate of 53 ± 6 beats minute?1 decreased significantly (p <0.05) with all protocols, and was lower (p <0.05) in protocols 3 and 4. Heart rate increased after atipamezole administration, but the increase was transient. In two tortoises, extreme bradycardia with no cardiac activity for 10 minutes was observed with protocols 3 and 4.Conclusion and clinical relevanceAlfaxalone 10 and 20 mg kg?1 IM can be used for sedation for non‐painful procedures. Alfaxalone in combination with medetomidine can be used for deeper sedation or anaesthesia, but the observed respiratory and cardiovascular depression may limit its use.  相似文献
