Objective
To determine the dose of cis-atracurium needed to produce a moderate neuromuscular blockade (NMB) in pigs.Study design
Prospective experimental study.Animals
Seven pigs [five females and two males; median (range) body weight: 47 (36–64) kg].Methods
Pigs were premedicated with intramuscular midazolam (0.3 mg kg?1) and ketamine (7 mg kg?1). Anaesthesia was induced with intravenous (IV) propofol 3 (1–4) mg kg?1 and maintained with isoflurane in oxygen. Based on a preliminary study, the subjects were administered 0.3 mg kg?1 cis-atracurium followed by 0.48 mg kg?1 hour?1 constant rate infusion (CRI) IV. A moderate NMB was defined as a train-of-four (TOF) count of ≤2 by acceleromyography. When the TOF count was >2, 0.1 mg kg?1 cis-atracurium was administered and the CRI was increased. The cis-atracurium CRI was decreased when the TOF count was under 2 for more than 15 minutes. The total dose of cis-atracurium required to maintain a moderate NMB was calculated as the total amount of cis-atracurium used (both CRI and supplementary boluses) divided by the administration time.Results
The cis-atracurium CRI lasted for 87 (76–151) minutes. To induce and maintain a moderate neuromuscular blockade, the initial dose of cis-atracurium was 0.3 (0.3– 0.5) mg kg?1 and the CRI was 0.71 (0.37–0.98) mg kg?1 hour?1.Conclusions and clinical relevance
The doses described in our study may help researchers obtain a moderate NMB using cis-atracurium in pigs. 相似文献2.

Objective
To compare the efficacy and quality of analgesia provided by constant rate infusions (CRIs) of hydromorphone and fentanyl in dogs in the intensive care unit (ICU).Study design
Prospective, randomized, blinded, clinical trial.Animals
A total of 29 client-owned dogs.Methods
Dogs prescribed a μ-opioid agonist infusion for postsurgical or medical pain were randomized to be administered either hydromorphone (0.025 or 0.05 mg kg?1 bolus, followed by a 0.03 mg kg?1 hour?1 infusion) or fentanyl (2.5 or 5 μg kg?1 bolus, followed by a 3 μg kg?1 hour?1 infusion). The technical staff and clinicians were blinded as to which drug was administered. Pain scores, using the Colorado State University Canine Acute Pain Scale, sedation scores and nausea scores were assigned at regular intervals and compared between groups. Dose escalation and de-escalation of the study drug were performed according to set protocols. Adverse clinical signs and all other medications administered were recorded and compared between groups. The study drug was discontinued if the animal remained painful despite dose escalations, or if adverse effects were noted.Results
The pain scores were of low magnitude and were not significantly different between groups. The use of concurrent analgesia, sedation/anxiolytic medications and antacid/antiemetic medications was not different between groups. Sedation and nausea scores were not statistically different between groups.Conclusions and clinical relevance
Hydromorphone and fentanyl CRIs appear to be equally effective for adequate pain relief in dogs, with no significant differences in adverse effects. Therefore, either drug may be chosen for control of postsurgical or medical pain in an ICU setting. 相似文献3.

Objective
To determine the pharmacokinetics and effects on thermal thresholds (TT) of two fentanyl constant rate infusions in awake cats.Study design
A blinded, randomized crossover study.Animals
A group of six healthy female cats, aged 3 ± 1 years, weighing 4.1 ± 0.7 kg.Methods
Skin temperature (TSKIN) and TT were evaluated using a wireless TT device. TSKIN, TT, sedation score (SS) and blood samples were collected before an intravenous loading dose (LD; over 5 seconds) and at specific time points during (360 minutes) and after infusion. Each cat was administered two treatments: fentanyl (LD 3 μg kg?1, infusion 3 μg kg?1 hour?1; treatment F3) or fentanyl (LD 5 μg kg?1, infusion 5 μg kg?1 hour?1; treatment F5). SS between treatments was analyzed using a Kruskal–Wallis test. Statistical analysis of TT and TSKIN was performed using analysis of variance with appropriate post hoc test (p < 0.05).Results
TSKIN did not vary over time for each treatment. SS did not differ between treatments. TTs were significantly higher than baseline at 15 minutes after LD for F3 and F5. TT was significantly increased at 30, 90, 120, 180 and 300 minutes in treatment F5 but not in F3. Plasma fentanyl concentrations decreased rapidly in both treatments over the first 30 minutes after infusion. The terminal half-life was 3.31 (2.93–4.41) hours for F3 and 3.67 (3.39–4.32) hours for F5 (median, range). Systemic clearance for treatments F3 and F5 was 1.95 (1.46–2.44) and 2.25 (1.98–2.47) L hour?1 kg?1 (median, range), respectively. Plasma concentrations <1.84 ng mL?1 were not associated with a significant increase in TT.Conclusions
and clinical relevance A fentanyl infusion rate of 5 μg kg?1 hour?1 increased TT during the infusion period. Effects on TT were lost rapidly with cessation of the infusion. 相似文献4.

Objective
To compare the performance of an alfaxalone constant rate intravenous (IV) infusion versus a 3-step IV infusion, both following a loading dose, for the maintenance of a target plasma alfaxalone concentration of 7.6 mg L–1 (effective plasma alfaxalone concentration for immobility in 99% of the population) in cats.Study design
Prospective randomized crossover study.Animals
A group of six healthy, adult male neutered cats.Methods
Catheters were placed in a jugular vein for blood sampling and in a medial saphenous vein for drug administration. An IV bolus of alfaxalone (2 mg kg–1) was administered, followed by either 0.2 mg kg?1 minute?1 for 240 minutes (single infusion; SI) or 0.4 mg kg?1 minute?1 for 10 minutes, then 0.3 mg kg?1 minute?1 for 30 minutes, and then 0.2 mg kg?1 minute?1 for 200 minutes (3-step infusion; 3-step). Plasma alfaxalone concentration was measured at six time points during the infusions. Measures of performance were calculated for each infusion regimen and compared using the paired Wilcoxon signed-rank test.Results
Median (range) absolute performance error, divergence, median prediction error and wobble were 15 (8–19)%, ?8 (?12 to ?6)% hour?1, ?12 (?19 to ?7)% and 10 (8–19)%, respectively, in the SI treatment, and 6 (2–16)%, 0 (?13 to 2)% hour?1, 1 (?16 to 4)% and 4 (3–6)% respectively, in the 3-step treatment and were significantly smaller in the 3-step treatment than in the SI treatment.Conclusion and clinical relevance
After IV administration of a bolus dose, a 3-step infusion regimen can better maintain stable plasma alfaxalone concentrations close to the target concentration than a single constant rate infusion. 相似文献5.

Objective
To determine the minimum infusion rate (MIR) of alfaxalone required to prevent purposeful movement in response to standardized stimulation while co-administered with lidocaine at three different doses by constant infusion rate infusion (CRI) in goats.Study design
Prospective, blinded, randomized crossover, experimental.Animals
A total of eight healthy goats: four does and four wethers.Methods
Anaesthetic induction was with lidocaine at 1 mg kg?1 [low dose of lidocaine (L-Lid)], 2 mg kg?1 [moderate dose (M-Lid)] or 4 mg kg?1 [high dose (H-Lid)] and alfaxalone at 2 mg kg?1. Anaesthetic maintenance was with alfaxalone initially at 9.6 mg kg?1 hour?1 combined with one of three lidocaine treatments: 3 mg kg?1 hour?1 (L-Lid), 6 mg kg?1 hour?1 (M-Lid) or 12 mg kg?1 hour?1 (H-Lid). The MIR of alfaxalone was determined by testing for responses to a stimulation in the form of clamping on a digit with a Vulsellum forceps every 30 minutes during lidocaine CRI. Basic cardiopulmonary parameters were measured.Results
The alfaxalone MIRs were 8.64 (6.72–10.56), 6.72 (6.72–8.64) and 6.72 (6.72–6.72) mg kg?1 hour?1 during L-Lid, M-Lid and H-Lid, respectively, without any significant differences among treatments. Compared to the initial rate of 9.6 mg kg?1 hour?1, these reductions in MIR are equivalent to 10, 30 and 30%, respectively. Significant increases in heart rate (HR) and arterial carbon dioxide partial pressure (PaCO2) and decreases in arterial haemoglobin saturation (SaO2), arterial oxygen partial pressure (PaO2) and respiratory frequency (fR) immediately after induction were observed during all lidocaine treatments.Conclusions and clinical relevance
Lidocaine reduces the alfaxalone MIR by up to 30% with a tendency towards a plateauing in this effect at high CRIs. Immediate oxygen supplementation might be required to prevent hypoxaemia. 相似文献6.

Objective
To characterize a propofol–medetomidine-ketamine total intravenous anaesthetic in impala (Aepyceros melampus).Study design
Prospective clinical study.Animals
Ten adult female impala.Materials and methods
Impala were immobilized at 1253 m above sea level with 2.0 mg thiafentanil and 2.2 mg medetomidine via projectile darts. Propofol was given to effect (0.5 mg kg?1 boluses) to allow endotracheal intubation, following which oxygen was supplemented at 2 L minute?1. Anaesthesia was maintained with a constant-rate infusion of medetomidine and ketamine at 5 μg kg?1 hour?1 and 1.5 mg kg?1 hour?1, respectively, and propofol to effect (initially 0.2 mg kg?1 minute?1) for 120 minutes. The propofol infusion was titrated according to reaction to nociceptive stimuli every 15 minutes. Cardiopulmonary parameters were monitored continuously and arterial blood gas samples were analysed intermittently. After 120 minutes' maintenance, the thiafentanil and medetomidine were antagonized using naltrexone (10:1 thiafentanil) and atipamezole (5:1 medetomidine), respectively.Results
All impala were successfully immobilized. The median dose [interquartile range (IQR)] of propofol required for intubation was 2.7 (1.9–3.3) mg kg?1. The propofol–medetomidine–ketamine combination abolished voluntary movement and ensured anaesthesia for the 120 minute period. Propofol titration showed a generally downward trend. Median (IQR) heart rate [57 (53–61) beats minute?1], respiratory rate [10 (9–12) breaths minute?1] and mean arterial blood pressure [101 (98–106) mmHg] were well maintained. Arterial blood gas analysis indicated hypoxaemia, hyper- capnia and acidaemia. Butorphanol (0.12 mg kg?1) was an essential rescue drug to counteract thiafentanil-induced respiratory depression. All impala regurgitated frequently during the maintenance period. Recovery was calm and rapid in all animals. Median (IQR) time to standing from antagonist administration was 4.4 (3.2–5.6) minutes.Conclusions and clinical relevance
A propofol–medetomidine–ketamine combination could provide adequate anaesthesia for invasive procedures in impala. The propofol infusion should begin at 0.2 mg kg?1 minute?1 and be titrated to clinical effect. Oxygen supplementation and airway protection with a cuffed endotracheal tube are essential. 相似文献7.

Objective
To evaluate intraoperative and postoperative efficacy of ultrasound (US)-guided femoral (FN) and obturator (ON) nerves block, in the iliopsoas muscle compartment (IPM), using an in-plane technique.Study design
Anatomical research and randomized, prospective, ‘blinded’ clinical study.Animals
Six dog cadavers and 20 client-owned dogs undergoing tibial plateau levelling osteotomy (TPLO) surgery.Methods
In phase 1, anatomical dissections and US imaging of the IPM were performed to design an US-guided nerve block involving the FN and ON simultaneously. The technique was considered successful if new methylene blue solution injection (0.1 mL kg?1) stained FN–ON for ≥2 cm. In phase 2, the US-guided nerve block designed in phase 1, combined with US-guided sciatic nerve (ScN) block, was performed in 20 dogs undergoing TPLO surgery. Patients were assigned randomly to one of two treatment groups: ropivacaine 0.3% (R3, n = 10) and ropivacaine 0.5% (R5, n = 10) at a volume of 0.1 mL kg?1 for each nerve block. Intraoperative success rate (fentanyl requirement < 2.1 mcg kg?1 hour?1) and postoperative pain score [Short Form-Glasgow Composite Measure Pain Scale (SF-GCMPS) ≥ 5/20] were evaluated.Results
In phase 1, the US image of FN–ON was detected between L6 and L7. In-plane needling technique produced a staining of >4 cm in six of six cases. No abdominal or epidural dye spread was found. In phase 2, median fentanyl infusion rates were 0.5 (0.0–0.9) μg kg?1 hour?1 for R3 and 0.6 (0.0–2.2) μg kg?1 hour?1 for R5. At 9 and 11 hours after the peripheral nerve blocks, an SF-GCMPS ≥ 5 was observed for R3 and R5, respectively.Conclusions and clinical relevance
The US-guided FN–ON block in the IPM, using an in-plane technique, combined with US-guided ScN block, provided sufficient analgesia to minimize the use of fentanyl during TPLO surgery. A longer postoperative analgesia was observed in group R5 compared with R3. 相似文献8.

Objective
To determine the absorption characteristics of fentanyl and buprenorphine administered transdermally in swine.Study design
A randomized comparative experimental trial.Animals
Twenty-four Yorkshire gilts weighing 27.8 ± 2.2 kg (mean ± standard deviation).Methods
Animals were randomly assigned to different doses of transdermal patches (TPs) of fentanyl (50 μg hour?1, 75 μg hour?1 and 100 μg hour?1) or buprenorphine (35 μg hour?1 and 70 μg hour?1), once or twice. Thirteen blood samples were obtained for each TP applied. Plasma concentrations were determined, and the area under the curve, peak serum concentration (Cmax) and time to Cmax were calculated.Results
Fentanyl: Cmax was observed at different time points: for the first TP application: 30 hours for 50 μg hour?1, 6 hours for 75 μg hour?1 and 100 μg hour?1 patches; and for the second TP application: 30 hours for 50 μg hour?1 and 36 hours for 75 μg hour?1 patches. Buprenorphine: serum concentrations were not detected for the 35 μg hour?1 patch; Cmax was observed at different times for the 70 μg hour?1 patch: 18 hours (n = 1), 24 hours (n = 3), 30 hours (n = 1) and 42 hours (n = 1) after application of the first patch and 12 hours after the second patch.Conclusions and clinical relevance
A relevant serum concentration obtained with fentanyl TP dosed at 75 μg hour?1 or 100 μg hour?1suggests that TPs could represent an analgesia option for laboratory pigs weighing 25–30 kg. As concentrations of buprenorphine were variable, this study does not support the use of buprenorphine TPs in pigs. Consecutive fentanyl or buprenorphine TPs did not provide reliable serum concentrations. Further pharmacokinetic studies and analgesiometric tests in swine are needed to confirm the clinical adequacy of TPs. 相似文献9.

Objective
To investigate the pharmacokinetics of buprenorphine and its main active metabolite, norbuprenorphine, after administration of an intravenous loading dose followed by constant rate infusion (CRI) in dogs.Study design
Prospective, clinical study.Animals
A total of seven healthy dogs undergoing elective ovariectomy.Methods
Buprenorphine was administered as a loading dose (intravenous bolus of 15 μg kg?1) followed by CRI (2.5 μg kg?1 hour?1 for 6 hours). Moreover, intraoperative analgesia was supplemented by an intramuscular carprofen (4 mg kg?1) injection, administered prior to surgery, and by lidocaine, administrated through subcutaneous infiltration and through a splash on the ovarian vascular pedicle during surgery. Pain and sedation were scored for all animals throughout the 24-hour study period and rescue analgesia was administered when a visual analogue scale score was > 40 mm. Blood samples were collected from a jugular catheter at regular intervals, and plasma concentrations of buprenorphine and norbuprenorphine were determined by a validated liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry method.Results
Buprenorphine showed a two-compartment kinetic profile. Maximum concentration was 23.92 ± 8.64 ng mL?1 at 1 minute (maximum time); elimination half-life was 41.87 ± 17.35 minutes; area under the curve was 486.68 ± 125.66 minutes ng?1 mL?1; clearance was 33.61 ± 13.01 mL minute?1 kg?1, and volume of distribution at steady state was 1.77 ± 0.50 L kg?1. In no case was rescue analgesia required. Norbuprenorphine resulted below the lower limit of quantification in almost all samples.Conclusions and clinical relevance
The results suggest that a buprenorphine CRI can be a useful tool for providing analgesia in postoperative patients, considering its minor side effects and the advantages of a CRI compared to frequent boluses. The negligible contribution of norbuprenorphine to the therapeutic effect was confirmed. 相似文献10.

Objective
To compare the effect of propofol and alfaxalone on laryngeal motion under a light plane of anaesthesia in nonbrachycephalic and brachycephalic dogs anaesthetized for nonemergency procedures.Study design
Prospective, randomized clinical trial.Animals
A total of 48 client-owned dogs (24 nonbrachycephalic and 24 brachycephalic).Methods
A standardized premedication of methadone (0.2 mg kg?1) and acepromazine (0.01 mg kg?1) was administered intramuscularly. Dogs were randomly assigned to be induced with increments of propofol (1–4 mg kg?1) or alfaxalone (0.5–2 mg kg?1). Laryngeal assessment was performed under a light plane of anaesthesia by a surgeon (GTH) who was unaware of the induction protocol. Laryngeal movement was assessed as either being present when abduction of the laryngeal cartilages upon inspiration was identified, or absent when abduction was not recognized. Simultaneously, a 60-second video was recorded. The same surgeon (GTH) and an additional surgeon (NK) re-evaluated the videos 1 month later. Categorical comparisons were studied using Chi square and Fisher’s exact test where appropriate. Pairwise evaluation of agreement between scorers was undertaken with the kappa statistic (κ).Results
There were no significant differences (p > 0.05) identified between the presence or absence of laryngeal motion between dogs administered propofol or alfaxalone, as well as when analysing nonbrachycephalic and brachycephalic dogs separately. The majority of dogs (>75%) maintained some degree of laryngeal motion with both protocols. Agreement between assessors was excellent (κ = 0.822).Conclusions
Alfaxalone maintained laryngeal motion similarly to propofol in nonbrachycephalic and brachycephalic dogs.Clinical relevance
Both agents would appear appropriate for allowing assessment of laryngeal motion in nonbrachycephalic and brachycephalic dogs. The assessment technique of subjective evaluation of laryngeal motion via peroral laryngoscopy under a light plane of anaesthesia produced consistent results amongst assessors, regardless of the induction agent used. 相似文献11.

Objective
To determine the effects of two dexmedetomidine continuous rate infusions on the minimum infusion rate of alfaxalone for total intravenous anaesthesia (TIVA), and subsequent haemodynamic and recovery effects in Greyhounds undergoing laparoscopic ovariohysterectomy.Study design
Prospective, randomized and blinded clinical study.Animals
Twenty-four female Greyhounds.Methods
Dogs were premedicated with dexmedetomidine 3 μg kg?1 and methadone 0.3 mg kg?1 intramuscularly. Anaesthesia was induced with IV alfaxalone to effect and maintained with a TIVA mixture of alfaxalone in combination with two different doses of dexmedetomidine (0.5 μg kg?1 hour?1 or 1 μg kg?1 hour?1; groups DEX0.5 and DEX1, respectively). The alfaxalone starting dose rate was 0.07 mg kg?1 minute?1 and was adjusted (± 0.02 mg kg?1 minute?1) every 5 minutes to maintain a suitable depth of anaesthesia. A rescue alfaxalone bolus (0.5 mg kg?1 IV) was administered if dogs moved or swallowed. The number of rescue boluses was recorded. Heart rate, arterial blood pressure and arterial blood gas were monitored. Qualities of sedation, induction and recovery were scored. Differences between groups were tested for statistical significance using a Student’s t test or Mann–Whitney U test as appropriate.Results
There were no differences between groups in sedation, induction and recovery quality, the median (range) induction dose of alfaxalone [DEX0.5: 2.2 (1.9–2.5) mg kg?1; DEX1: 1.8 (1.2–2.9) mg kg?1], total dose of alfaxalone rescue boluses [DEX0.5: 21.0 (12.5–38.8) mg; DEX1: 22.5 (15.5–30.6) mg] or rate of alfaxalone (DEX0.5: 0.12 ± 0.04 mg kg?1 minute?1; DEX1: 0.12 ± 0.03 mg kg?1 minute?1).Conclusions and clinical relevance
Co-administration of dexmedetomidine 1 μg kg?1 hour?1 failed to reduce the dose rate of alfaxalone compared with dexmedetomidine 0.5 μg kg?1 hour?1 in Greyhounds undergoing laparoscopic ovariohysterectomy. The authors recommend an alfaxalone starting dose rate of 0.1 mg kg?1 minute?1. Recovery quality was good in the majority of dogs. 相似文献12.

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13.

Objective
To compare the effects of MK-467 during isoflurane anaesthesia combined with xylazine or dexmedetomidine on global and gastrointestinal perfusion parameters.Study design
Prospective, randomized experimental trial.Animals
A total of 15 warmblood horses.Methods
Horses were divided into two groups for administration of either dexmedetomidine (D) or xylazine (X) for premedication (D: 3.5 μg kg?1; X: 0.5 mg kg?1) and as constant rate infusion during isoflurane anaesthesia (D: 7 μg kg?1 hour?1; X: 1 mg kg?1 hour?1). During anaesthesia, heart rate, mean arterial blood pressure (MAP), systemic vascular resistance index (SVRI) and cardiac index (CI) were measured. Microperfusion of the colon, jejunum and stomach was measured using laser Doppler flowmetry. After 2 hours of stabilization, MK-467 (250 μg kg?1) was administered, and measurements were continued for another 90 minutes. For statistical analysis, the permutation test and Wilcoxon rank-sum test were used (p < 0.05).Results
There were no differences in baseline measurements between groups. The MK-467 bolus resulted in a significant decrease in MAP (D: –58%; X: –48%) and SVRI (D: –68%; X: –65%) lasting longer in group D (90 minutes) compared to group X (60 minutes). While CI increased (D: +31%; X: +35%), microperfusion was reduced in the colon (D: –44%; X: –34%), jejunum (D: –26%; X: –33%) and stomach (D: –37%; X: –35%).Conclusions and clinical relevance
Alpha-2-agonist induced vasoconstriction was reversed by the MK-467 dose used, resulting in hypotension and rise in CI. Gastrointestinal microperfusion decreased, probably as a result of insufficient perfusion pressure. An infusion rate for MK-467 as well as an ideal agonist/antagonist ratio should be determined. 相似文献14.

Objective
To investigate the sedative effects in dogs of tiletamine–zolazepam–acepromazine (TZA) or ketamine–flunitrazepam (KF) administered orally and to evaluate the effectiveness of encapsulated TZA for capturing free-roaming dogs.Study design
Experimental study followed by a field trial.Animals
Six research dogs and 27 free-roaming dogs.Methods
In a pilot study, six research dogs were administered liquid TZA (20 mg kg?1 tiletamine–zolazepam and 2 mg kg?1 acepromazine) or liquid KF (50 mg kg?1 ketamine and 2 mg kg?1 flunitrazepam) orally: treatment 1, forcefully squirting liquid medication into the mouth; treatment 2, encapsulating liquid medication for administration in canned food; treatment 3, administering liquid medication mixed with gravy. Sedation was scored. A follow-up field trial attempted capture of 27 free-roaming dogs.Results
In the pilot study, the median time (range) to lateral recumbency (% dogs) after TZA administration was: treatment 1, 47.5 (35–80) minutes (67%); treatment 2, 30 (15–65) minutes (83%); and treatment 3, 75 (45–110) minutes (100%). No dogs in KF treatment 2 or 3 achieved lateral recumbency. Based on these results, 20 free-roaming dogs were offered encapsulated TZA in canned food: TZ (20 mg kg?1) and acepromazine (2 mg kg?1). Of these, no further drugs to four dogs (one dog captured), 10 dogs were administered a second dose within 30 minutes (five dogs captured) and six dogs were administered TZ (5 mg kg?1) and xylazine (1.1–2.2 mg kg?1) intramuscularly by blow dart (six dogs captured). Seven dogs were initially offered twice the TZA dose (five dogs captured). In total, 63% free-roaming dogs were captured after administration of encapsulated TZA in canned food.Conclusions and clinical relevance
Oral administration of encapsulated TZA in canned dog food can aid in the capture of free-roaming dogs, but additional drugs may be required. The sedation onset time and medication palatability influenced the capture rate. 相似文献15.

Objective
To describe adverse reactions and measure plasma fentanyl concentrations in calves following administration of a fentanyl transdermal patch (FTP).Study design
Prospective, experimental clinical study.Animals
Six female Holstein calves and one male Angus calf. Four calves were healthy experimental animals and three calves were clinical patients.Methods
Plasma fentanyl concentrations were measured in blood collected from a jugular vein. FTP 2 μg kg–1 hour–1 and 1 μg kg–1 hour–1 was applied to four and three calves, respectively. Heart rate, respiratory rate, temperature and ataxia were recorded at the same times as blood collection (0, 2, 4, 6, 12, 24, 36, 48, 60, 72, 84 and 96 hours). Substance P concentrations were determined via radioimmunoassay for two calves.Results
After the FTP (2 μg kg–1 hour–1) application, two calves developed tachycardia, hyperthermia, excitement and ataxia within 6 hours; no adverse effect was observed in the other two calves. The three calves administered FTP (1 μg kg–1 hour–1) exhibited tachycardia and excitement, and the FTP were removed at 4 hours. Naloxone was administered to two calves before the adverse clinical signs ceased, while adverse events in the other three calves resolved within 2 hours of FTP removal. Variables returned to previous baseline values by 2–4 hours after FTP removal. Maximum plasma fentanyl concentrations were variable among calves (0.726–6.923 ng mL–1). Substance P concentrations measured in two calves were not consistently depressed during FTP application. Fentanyl concentrations at 4 and 6 hours were significantly associated with the appearance of adverse effects.Conclusions and clinical relevance
FTP (1–2 μg kg–1 hour–1) administered to calves may result in adverse behavioral and cardiovascular effects. Patch removal and treatment with an opioid antagonist may resolve these adverse effects. Additional research is needed to determine optimal FTP dosing for cattle. 相似文献16.

Objective
To determine the suitability of alfaxalone total intravenous (IV) anaesthesia in horses and concurrently evaluate infusion rates, cardiovascular effects, pharmacokinetics and the quality of the anaesthetic recovery period.Study design
Prospective, experimental study.Animals
Eight Standardbred horses.Methods
Horses were premedicated with IV acepromazine (0.03 mg kg–1) and xylazine (1 mg kg–1) and anaesthesia was induced with guaifenesin (35 mg kg–1) and alfaxalone (1 mg kg–1). Anaesthesia was maintained for 180 minutes using an IV infusion of alfaxalone at a rate determined by a horse’s response to a supramaximal electrical noxious stimulus. Venous blood samples were regularly collected to determine alfaxalone plasma concentrations and for pharmacokinetic analysis. Cardiopulmonary variables were monitored and the quality of the anaesthetic recovery period scored.Results
The median (range) alfaxalone infusion rate was 3.1 (2.4–4.3) mg kg–1 hour–1. The mean ± standard deviation plasma elimination half-life, plasma clearance and volume of distribution for alfaxalone were 41 minutes, 25 ± 6.3 mL minute–1 kg–1 and 1.6 ± 0.5 L kg–1, respectively. During anaesthesia, mean arterial blood pressure was maintained above 70 mmHg in all horses. Cardiac index reached a minimum value (68% of baseline values) immediately after induction of anaesthesia and was maintained between 74% and 90% of baseline values for the remainder of the anaesthetic protocol. Following the cessation of the alfaxalone infusion, six of eight horses exhibited muscle tremors and paddling. All horses stood without incident on the first or second attempt with a median recovery score of 4.5 (good to excellent).Conclusions and clinical relevance
Anaesthesia in horses can be maintained with an infusion of alfaxalone at approximately 3 mg kg–1 hour–1. The alfaxalone infusion rates used resulted in minimal haemodynamic changes and good recovery quality. Mean alfaxalone plasma concentration was stable over the infusion period and clearance rates were similar to previously published single-dose alfaxalone studies in horses. 相似文献17.

Objective
To compare cardiovascular function and response to nociception during total intravenous anaesthesia in pigs with propofol, ketamine and either dexmedetomidine or fentanyl administered as a continuous infusion.Study design
Blinded, randomized, balanced, crossover studyAnimals
Eight immunocastrated male, mixed breed pigs with a mean ± standard deviation body weight of 26.4 ± 1.9 kg for dexmedetomidine and 27.5 ± 3.8 kg for fentanyl treatment.Methods
The animals were anaesthetized twice with either propofol–ketamine–dexmedetomidine (DEX) or fentanyl (FENT). DEX was infused at 2, 4 and 8 μg kg?1 hour?1 and FENT at 25, 50 and 100 μg kg?1 hour?1. Each infusion rate was administered for 80 minutes prior to commencing the next. Heart rate (HR), 3-lead electrocardiogram, systolic, mean and diastolic arterial blood pressure (SAP, MAP, DAP) in addition to cardiac output measured by transpulmonary thermodilution was used to monitor cardiovascular function. Mechanical and electrical stimulation (nociceptive withdrawal reflex, NWR) was used to elicit nociceptive responses. Similar anaesthetic depth was determined based on the NWR response. Cardiovascular parameters were compared statistically at this time. Additionally, response to nociceptive stimulation and cardiovascular response over time were compared.Results
DEX-treated pigs had significantly higher HR, SAP, DAP, MAP, systemic vascular resistance, haemoglobin concentration, content of oxygen in arterial and venous blood and oxygen delivery index than FENT-treated pigs at similar anaesthetic depth, whereas stroke volume index was significantly higher in FENT. Motoric response to mechanical nociceptive stimulation was abolished prior to any decrease in NWR response in FENT, whereas the two responses decreased more in unison in DEX. The cardiovascular response to nociception was less pronounced in DEX than in FENT.Conclusions and clinical relevance
Propofol combined with ketamine and either fentanyl or dexmedetomidine provides stable cardiovascular conditions in normovolaemic, healthy pigs. Based on cardiovascular response and depression of NWR, dexmedetomidine apparently provides superior analgesia to fentanyl. 相似文献18.

Objectives
Neostigmine is routinely used to reverse non-depolarizing neuromuscular block. Given its indirect mechanism, a plateau may exist whereby increasing doses of neostigmine do not result in clinical benefit. This study was designed to measure the speed of reversal of vecuronium-induced neuromuscular block in isoflurane-anesthetized dogs after the administration of three doses of neostigmine as used in clinical practice.Study design
Prospective, crossover, randomized study.Animals
Seven adult, mixed-breed dogs with a mean ± standard deviation (SD) age of 2.0 ± 0.8 years and weight of 19.1 ± 9.1 kg.Methods
Dogs were anesthetized on three occasions with isoflurane and administered vecuronium (0.1 mg kg–1) intravenously (IV). The train-of-four (TOF) ratio was measured on the pelvic limb with acceleromyography. When the second twitch of the TOF had returned spontaneously, atropine (0.03 mg kg–1) and neostigmine (0.02, 0.04 or 0.07 mg kg–1) were administered IV. Time to reach a TOF ratio of ≥0.9 after neostigmine administration was recorded.Results
Increasing the dose of neostigmine from 0.02 mg kg–1 to 0.04 mg kg–1 and 0.07 mg kg–1 resulted in significant reductions in mean ± SD reversal times (10.5 ± 2.3, 7.4 ± 1.1 and 5.4 ± 0.5 minutes, respectively) (p < 0.0001) and smaller coefficients of variation (22%, 15% and 10%, respectively).Conclusions and clinical relevance
Increasing the dose of neostigmine from 0.02 mg kg–1 to 0.04 mg kg–1 and 0.07 mg kg–1 produced faster and less variable reversal of vecuronium-induced neuromuscular block in isoflurane-anesthetized dogs. No ceiling effect was observed at this dose range. 相似文献19.

Objective
To compare the effects of two balanced anaesthetic protocols (isoflurane–dexmedetomidine versus medetomidine) on sedation, cardiopulmonary function and recovery in horses.Study design
Prospective, blinded, randomized clinical study.Animals
Sixty healthy adult warm blood horses undergoing elective surgery.Methods
Thirty horses each were sedated with dexmedetomidine 3.5 μg kg?1 (group DEX) or medetomidine 7 μg kg?1 (group MED) intravenously. After assessing and supplementing sedation if necessary, anaesthesia was induced with ketamine/diazepam and maintained with isoflurane in oxygen/air and dexmedetomidine 1.75 μg kg?1 hour?1 or medetomidine 3.5 μg kg?1 hour?1. Ringer's lactate (7–10 mL kg?1 hour?1) and dobutamine were administered to maintain normotension. Controlled mechanical ventilation maintained end-tidal expired carbon dioxide pressures at 40–50 mmHg (5.3–6.7 kPa). Heart rate, invasive arterial blood pressure, inspired and expired gas composition and arterial blood gases were measured. Dexmedetomidine 1 μg kg?1 or medetomidine 2 μg kg?1 was administered for timed and scored recovery phase. Data were analysed using two-way repeated-measures analysis of variance and chi-square test. Significance was considered when p ≤ 0.05.Results
In group DEX, significantly more horses (n = 18) did not fulfil the sedation criteria prior to induction and received one or more supplemental doses, whereas in group MED only two horses needed one additional bolus. Median (range) total sedation doses were dexmedetomidine 4 (4–9) μg kg?1 or medetomidine 7 (7–9) μg kg?1. During general anaesthesia, cardiopulmonary parameters did not differ significantly between groups. Recovery scores in group DEX were significantly better than in group MED.Conclusions and clinical relevance
Horses administered dexmedetomidine required more than 50% of the medetomidine dose to reach equivalent sedation. During isoflurane anaesthesia, cardiopulmonary function was comparable between the two groups. Recovery scores following dexmedetomidine were better compared to medetomidine. 相似文献20.
