Objective To determine, in mildly hypercapnic horses under isoflurane–medetomidine balanced anaesthesia, whether there is a difference in cardiovascular function between spontaneous ventilation (SV) and intermittent positive pressure ventilation (IPPV). Study design Prospective randomized clinical study. Animals Sixty horses, undergoing elective surgical procedures under general anaesthesia: ASA classification I or II. Methods Horses were sedated with medetomidine and anaesthesia was induced with ketamine and diazepam. Anaesthesia was maintained with isoflurane and a constant rate infusion of medetomidine. Horses were assigned to either SV or IPPV for the duration of anaesthesia. Horses in group IPPV were maintained mildly hypercapnic (arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO2) 50–60 mmHg, 6.7–8 kPa). Mean arterial blood pressure (MAP) was maintained above 70 mmHg by an infusion of dobutamine administered to effect. Heart rate (HR), respiratory rate (fR), arterial blood pressure and inspiratory and expiratory gases were monitored continuously. A bolus of ketamine was administered when horses showed nystagmus. Cardiac output was measured using lithium dilution. Arterial blood‐gas analysis was performed regularly. Recovery time was noted and recovery quality scored. Results There were no differences between groups concerning age, weight, body position during anaesthesia and anaesthetic duration. Respiratory rate was significantly higher in group IPPV. Significantly more horses in group IPPV received supplemental ketamine. There were no other significant differences between groups. All horses recovered from anaesthesia without complications. Conclusions There was no difference in cardiovascular function in horses undergoing elective surgery during isoflurane–medetomidine anaesthesia with SV in comparison with IPPV, provided the horses are maintained slightly hypercapnic. Clinical relevance In horses with health status ASA I and II, cardiovascular function under general anaesthesia is equal with or without IPPV if the PaCO2 is maintained at 50–60 mmHg.  相似文献

Objective To characterize intravenous anaesthesia with detomidine, ketamine and guaiphenesin in pregnant ponies. Animals Twelve pony mares, at 260–320 days gestation undergoing abdominal surgery to implant fetal and maternal vascular catheters. Materials and methods Pre‐anaesthetic medication with intravenous (IV) acepromazine (30 µg kg?1), butorphanol (20 µg kg?1) and detomidine (10 µg kg?1) preceded induction of anaesthesia with detomidine (10 µg kg?1) and ketamine (2 mg kg?1) IV Maternal arterial blood pressure was measured directly throughout anaesthesia and arterial blood samples were taken at 20‐minute intervals for measurement of blood gases and plasma concentrations of cortisol, glucose and lactate. Anaesthesia was maintained with an IV infusion of detomidine (0.04 mg mL?1), ketamine (4 mg mL?1) and guaiphenesin (100 mg mL?1) (DKG) for 140 minutes. Oxygen was supplied by intermittent positive pressure ventilation (IPPV) adjusted to maintain PaCO2 between 5.0 and 6.0 kPa (38 and 45 mm Hg), while PaO2 was kept close to 20.0 kPa (150 mm Hg) by adding nitrous oxide. Simultaneous fetal and maternal blood samples were withdrawn at 90 minutes. Recovery quality was assessed. Results DKG was infused at 0.67 ± 0.17 mL kg?1 hour?1 for 1 hour then reduced, reaching 0.28 ± 0.14 mL kg?1 hour?1 at 140 minutes. Arterial blood gas values and pH remained within intended limits. During anaesthesia there was no change in heart rate, but arterial blood pressure decreased by 10%. Plasma glucose and lactate increased (10‐fold and 2‐fold, respectively) and cortisol decreased by 50% during anaesthesia. Fetal umbilical venous pH, PO2 and PCO2 were 7.34 ± 0.06, 5.8 ± 0.9 kPa (44 ± 7 mm Hg) and 6.7 ± 0.8 kPa (50 ± 6 mm Hg); and fetal arterial pH, PO2 and PCO2 were 7.29 ± 0.06, 4.0 ± 0.7 kPa (30 ± 5 mm Hg) and 7.8 ± 1.7 kPa (59 ± 13 mm Hg), respectively. Surgical conditions were good but four ponies required a single additional dose of ketamine. Ponies took 60 ± 28 minutes to stand and recovery was good. Conclusions and clinical relevance Anaesthesia produced with DKG was smooth while cardiovascular function in mare and fetus was well preserved. This indicates that DKG infusion is suitable for maintenance of anaesthesia in pregnant equidae.  相似文献

Objective To compare the arterial pH and blood gas values, heart rate and mean arterial blood pressure, in hypoxaemic anaesthetized horses, before and after treatment, with a salbutamol (albuterol) aerosol. Animal population Eighty‐one client‐owned horses weighing between 114 and 925 kg. Fifty‐seven underwent emergency abdominal surgery and 24 were anaesthetized for elective procedures. Materials and methods Pre‐anaesthetic medication included xylazine, detomidine, butorphanol and morphine, alone or in various combinations. Induction of anaesthesia was achieved with guaifenesin and ketamine, diazepam and ketamine, or guaifenesin and thiopental. The trachea of all animals was intubated and anaesthesia maintained with either halothane (33 horses) or isoflurane (48 horses) in oxygen. Heart rate and rhythm were monitored continuously. Arterial blood pressure was monitored directly, and arterial blood collected for pH and blood gas analyses. When arterial PaO2 fell below 9.3 kPa (70 mm Hg) and failed to respond to corrective measures including positive pressure ventilation and treatment of hypotension (mean arterial blood pressures <70 mm Hg), a salbutamol aerosol (2 µg kg?1) was delivered via the endotracheal tube. Twenty minutes later, a second arterial blood sample was analysed. Results There were no significant differences in mean arterial blood pressure, heart rate, arterial pH, base excess and bicarbonate before and after treatment. Arterial O2 tension increased significantly from a mean ± SD of 8.3 ± 1.7 kPa (62.4 ± 13.1 mm Hg) before administration to 15.9 ± 9.8 kPa (119.4 ± 57.7 mm Hg) after treatment. There was a small but significant decrease in PaCO2 from 7.4 ± 1.5 kPa (55.2 ± 11.2 mm Hg) to 7.0 ± 1.3 kPa (52.9 ± 9.8 mm Hg) between sample times. No changes in heart rhythm were observed. A high percentage (approximately 70%) of animals sweated following treatment. Conclusions Salbutamol administered at a dose of 2 µg kg?1 via the endotracheal tube of anaesthetized horses with PaO2 values less than 9.3 kPa (70 mm Hg) resulted in an almost two‐fold increase in PaO2 values within 20 minutes of treatment. No changes in heart rate or mean arterial blood pressure were associated with the use of salbutamol in this study. The improvement in PaO2 may be a result of bronchodilatation and improved ventilation, increased perfusion secondary to an increase in cardiac output, or a combination of these two factors. Cardiac output and ventilation–perfusion distribution were not measured in this study; therefore, the reason for the increase in PaO2 values cannot be conclusively determined. Clinical relevance Administration of a salbutamol aerosol is a simple but effective technique that can be used to improve PaO2 values in hypoxaemic horses during inhalant anaesthesia with no apparent detrimental side effects.  相似文献

Six Welsh gelding ponies were premedicated with 0.03 mg/kg of acepromazine intravenously (i.v.) prior to induction of anaesthesia with midazolam at 0.2 mg/kg and ketamine at 2 mg/kg i.v.. Anaesthesia was maintained for 2 h using 1.2 % halothane concentration in oxygen. Heart rate, electrocardiograph (ECG), arterial blood pressure, respiratory rate, blood gases, temperature, haematocrit, plasma arginine vasopressin (AVP), dynorphin, ß-endorphin, adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH), cortisol, dopamine, noradrenaline, adrenaline, glucose and lactate concentrations were measured before and after premedication, immediately after induction, every 20 min during anaesthesia, and at 20 and 120 min after disconnection. Induction was rapid, excitement-free and good muscle relaxation was observed. There were no changes in heart and respiratory rates. Decrease in temperature, hyperoxia and respiratory acidosis developed during anaes-thesia and slight hypotension was observed (minimum value 76 ± 10 mm Hg at 40 mins). No changes were observed in dynorphin, ß-endorphin, ACTH, catecholamines and glucose. Plasma cortisol concentration increased from 220 ± 17 basal to 354 ± 22 nmol/L at 120 min during anaesthesia; plasma AVP concentration increased from 3 ± 1 basal to 346 ± 64 pmol/L at 100 min during anaesthesia and plasma lactate concentration increased from 1.22 ± 0.08 basal to 1.76 ± 0.13 mmol/L at 80 min during anaesthesia. Recovery was rapid and uneventful with ponies taking 46 ± 6 min to stand. When midazolam/ketamine was compared with thiopentone or detomidine/ketamine for induction before halothane anaesthesia using an otherwise similar protocol in the same ponies, it caused slightly more respiratory depression, but less hypotension. Additionally, midazolam reduced the hormonal stress response commonly observed during halothane anaesthesia and appears to have a good potential for use in horses.  相似文献

History Medical knowledge of pygmy hippopotami is limited. Anaesthesia has been considered a challenge because of the anatomy, semi‐aquatic life style and aggressive behaviour. Polycystic kidney disease (PKD) has been described and can contribute to active kidney disease potentially affecting anaesthesia. Physical examination and Management Fourteen pygmy hippopotami were anaesthetized for general health assessment and reproductive procedures. Animals (estimated bodyweight 250 kg) were darted intramuscularly with 0.08 mg kg?1 medetomidine and 1.2 mg kg?1 ketamine. After endotracheal intubation, anaesthesia was maintained with isoflurane delivered either by circle system (100% oxygen) or by Triservice apparatus (air or air/oxygen admixture). Heart rate (HR) respiratory rate (fR), oxygen saturation (SpO2) and end tidal CO2 were recorded at 5‐minute intervals. Atipamezole was administered intramuscularly (0.4 mg kg?1) at the end of the procedure. Statistical analysis was performed using anova (p < 0.05). Most animals rapidly became recumbent although five hippopotami needed additional drugs to assure acceptable immobilization. There were no statistical differences in mean HR between animals with or without PKD (PKD: 34 ± 8 beats minutes?1; no PKD: 33 ± 6 beats minutes?1), fR (PKD: 15 ± 7 breaths minutes?1; no PKD; 12 ± 5 breaths minutes?1) and end tidal CO2 (PKD: 7.1 ± 1.3 kPa; no PKD: 7.8 ± 1.4 kPa). SpO2 was higher in animals receiving 100% oxygen or air with oxygen (92 ± 8% and 91 ± 9% respectively) compared with animals receiving air only (77 ± 5%) (p = 0.003). Recovery was uneventful after atipamezole administration. Follow‐up There were no apparent adverse effects after anaesthesia during a 24‐hour follow‐up period. Discussion and conclusions Medetomidine‐ketamine‐isoflurane induced satisfactory anaesthesia in this species. Incremental induction doses were related to remote injection and the animals’ thick skin. There were no differences in anaesthetic parameters in animals with or without PKD. Supplemental oxygen should be mandatory during anaesthesia in this species.  相似文献

ObjectiveTo evaluate the effects of medetomidine, midazolam and ketamine (MMK) in captive gorillas after premedication with oral zuclopenthixol.Study designCase series.AnimalsSix gorillas, two males and four females, aged 9–52 years and weighing 63–155 kg.MethodsThe gorillas were given zuclopenthixol dihydrochloride 0.2 ± 0.05 mg kg?1 per os twice daily for 3 days for premedication. On the day of anaesthesia the dose of zuclopenthixol was increased to 0.27 mg kg?1 and given once early in the morning. Anaesthesia was induced with medetomidine 0.04 ± 0.004 mg kg?1, midazolam 0.048 ± 0.003 mg kg?1 and ketamine 4.9 ± 0.4 mg kg?1 intramuscularly (IM). Upon recumbency, the trachea was intubated and anaesthesia was maintained on 1–2% isoflurane in oxygen. Physiological parameters were monitored every 10 minutes and arterial blood gas analysis was performed once 30–50 minutes after initial darting. At the end of the procedure, 42–115 minutes after initial darting, immobilisation was antagonized with atipamezole 0.21 ± 0.03 mg kg?1 and sarmazenil 5 ± 0.4 μg kg?1 IM.ResultsRecumbency was reached within 10 minutes in five out of six animals. One animal required two additional darts before intubation was feasible. Heart rate ranged from 60 to 85 beats minute?1, respiratory rate from 17 to 46 breaths minute?1 and temperature from 36.9 to 38.3 °C. No spontaneous recoveries were observed and anaesthetic level was stable. Blood gas analyses revealed mild respiratory acidosis, and mean PaO2 was 24.87 ± 17.16 kPa (187 ± 129 mmHg) with all values being above 13.4 kPa (101 mmHg). Recovery was smooth and gorillas were sitting within 25 minutes.Conclusion and clinical relevanceThe drug combination proved to be effective in anaesthetizing captive gorillas of various ages and both sexes, with minimal cardio-respiratory changes.  相似文献

ObjectiveTo evaluate agreement between end-tidal carbon dioxide (Pe′CO2) and PaCO2 with sidestream and mainstream capnometers in mechanically ventilated anesthetized rabbits, with two ventilatory strategies.Study designProspective experimental study.AnimalsA total of 10 New Zealand White rabbits weighing 3.6 ± 0.3 kg (mean ± standard deviation).MethodsRabbits anesthetized with sevoflurane were intubated with an uncuffed endotracheal tube (3.0 mm internal diameter) and adequate seal. For Pe′CO2, the sidestream capnometer sampling adapter or the mainstream capnometer was placed between the endotracheal tube and Bain breathing system (1.5 L minute–1 oxygen). PaCO2 was obtained from arterial blood collected every 5 minutes. A time-cycled ventilator delivered an inspiratory time of 1 second and 12 or 20 breaths minute–1. Peak inspiratory pressure was initially set to achieve Pe′CO2 normocapnia of 35–45 mmHg (4.6–6.0 kPa). A total of five paired Pe′CO2 and PaCO2 measurements were obtained with each ventilation mode for each capnometer. Anesthetic episodes were separated by 7 days. Agreement was assessed using Bland-Altman analysis and linear mixed models; p < 0.05.ResultsThere were 90 and 83 pairs for the mainstream and sidestream capnometers, respectively. The mainstream capnometer underestimated PaCO2 by 12.6 ± 2.9 mmHg (proportional bias 0.44 ± 0.06 mmHg per 1 mmHg PaCO2 increase). With the sidestream capnometer, ventilation mode had a significant effect on Pe′CO2. At 12 breaths minute–1, Pe′CO2 underestimated PaCO2 by 23.9 ± 8.2 mmHg (proportional bias: 0.81 ± 0.18 mmHg per 1 mmHg PaCO2 increase). At 20 breaths minute–1, Pe′CO2 underestimated PaCO2 by 38.8 ± 5.0 mmHg (proportional bias 1.13 ± 0.10 mmHg per 1 mmHg PaCO2 increase).Conclusions and clinical relevanceBoth capnometers underestimated PaCO2. The sidestream capnometer underestimated PaCO2 more than the mainstream capnometer, and was affected by ventilation mode.  相似文献

ObjectiveTo determine the effect of fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO2) on intrapulmonary shunt fraction as measured by F-shunt in ponies during isoflurane anaesthesia.Study designProspective, randomized clinical study.AnimalsA group of 23 adult Shetland ponies undergoing a total of 32 anaesthetic procedures.MethodsPonies were premedicated intravenously (IV) with detomidine (0.01 mg kg–1) and either morphine (0.1 mg kg–1) or butorphanol (0.02 mg kg–1). Anaesthesia was induced with ketamine (2.2 mg kg–1) and midazolam (0.07 mg kg–1) administered IV. Ponies were randomly allocated to maintenance of anaesthesia with isoflurane in oxygen (group TH; FiO2 = 0.95) or a mixture of oxygen and medical air (group TL; FiO2 = 0.65); all ponies were given a constant rate of infusion of detomidine. Animals were mechanically ventilated to maintain PaCO2 between 40 and 50 mmHg. Arterial blood gas analysis was performed every 30 minutes. The F-shunt equation was calculated for each time point T0, T30, T60 and T90. Data were analysed using linear mixed model analysis and presented as mean ± standard deviation (p < 0.05).ResultsPaO2 was greater in group TH than in group TL (TH: 406 ± 90, 438 ± 83, 441 ± 69 and 464 ± 53 mmHg versus TL: 202 ± 90, 186 ± 84, 172 ± 85 and 191 ± 98 mmHg at T0, T30, T60 and T90, respectively; p < 0.0001). In TH, F-shunt was < TL. Significant differences were found at T60 (TH: 13.2% ± 4.3 versus TL: 19.4% ± 8.3; p = 0.016) and T90 (TH: 11.7% ± 3.5 versus TL: 18.6% ± 9.5; p = 0.036).Conclusions and clinical relevanceOur findings do not support a beneficial effect of using a reduced FiO2 to improve oxygenation in anaesthetized and mechanically ventilated Shetland ponies.  相似文献

Objective To compare, ventilation using intermittent positive pressure ventilation (IPPV) with constant positive end‐expiratory pressure (PEEP) and alveolar recruitment manoeuvres (RM) to classical IPPV without PEEP on gas exchange during anaesthesia and early recovery. Study design Prospective randomized study. Animals Twenty‐four warm‐blood horses, weight mean 548 ± SD 49 kg undergoing surgery for colic. Methods Premedication, induction and maintenance (isoflurane in oxygen) were identical in all horses. Group C (n = 12) was ventilated using conventional IPPV, inspiratory pressure (PIP) 35–45 cmH2O; group RM (n = 12) using similar IPPV with constant PEEP (10 cmH2O) and intermittent RMs (three consecutive breaths PIP 60, 80 then 60 cmH2O, held for 10–12 seconds). RMs were applied as required to maintain arterial oxygen tension (PaO2) at >400 mmHg (53.3 kPa). Physiological parameters were recorded intraoperatively. Arterial blood gases were measured intra‐ and postoperatively. Recovery times and quality of recovery were measured or scored. Results Statistically significant findings were that horses in group RM had an overall higher PaO2 (432 ± 101 mmHg) than those in group C (187 ± 112 mmHg) at all time points including during the early recovery period. Recovery time to standing position was significantly shorter in group RM (49.6 ± 20.7 minutes) than group C (70.7 ± 24.9). Other measured parameters did not differ significantly. The median (range) of number of RMs required to maintain PaO2 above 400 mmHg per anaesthetic was 3 (1–8). Conclusion Ventilation using IPPV with constant PEEP and RM improved arterial oxygenation lasting into the early recovery period in conjunction with faster recovery of similar quality. However this ventilation mode was not able to open up the lung completely and to keep it open without repeated recruitment. Clinical relevance This mode of ventilation may provide a clinically practicable method of improving oxygenation in anaesthetized horses.  相似文献

Objective To determine the effects of intravenous ketamine‐midazolam anesthesia on intraocular pressure (IOP) in ocular normotensive dogs. Animals Thirteen adult mixed‐breed dogs. Procedures Dogs were randomly assigned to treatment (n = 7) and control (n = 6) groups. Dogs in the treatment group received intravenous ketamine 15 mg/kg and midazolam 0.2 mg/kg and dogs in the control group received intravenous saline. The time of intravenous drug injection was recorded (T0). Measurements of IOP were then repeated 5 min (T5) and 20 min (T20) following the intravenous administration of ketamine‐midazolam combination and saline in both groups. Results Measurements showed normal IOP values in both groups. The mean ± SD baseline IOP values for treatment and control groups were 13.00 ± 1.47 and 10.33 ± 2.20, respectively. For baseline IOP values, there was no significant difference between treatment and control groups (P = 0.162). In the treatment group, the subsequent post‐treatment mean ± SD values were 15.64 ± 2.17 (5 min), and 14.92 ± 1.98 (20 min). There was no evidence of statistical difference between baseline values and post‐treatment values after treatment with ketamine‐midazolam (P5 = 0.139; P20 = 0.442). In control eyes, the mean ± SD values at 5 and 20 min were 10.41 ± 2.01 and 10.16 ± 1.69, respectively. There was no significant difference between baseline values and post‐treatment values in control group (P5 = 1.000; P20 = 1.000). Conclusion Ketamine‐midazolam combination has no clinically significant effect on IOP in the dog.  相似文献

Objective The aim of this study was to define and evaluate a combined inhalation?intravenous anaesthetic protocol for use in equine anaesthesia. Study design Prospective, randomized clinical trial. Animals Twenty‐eight horses (body mass 522 ± 82; 330–700 kg [mean ± SD; range]) with a mean age of 6 ± 4 years (range: 2–18 years) presented to the university hospital for various surgical procedures requiring general anaesthesia. Materials and methods Animals were randomly allocated to one of two treatment groups. Anaesthesia was maintained in 14 horses with halothane alone (H group). The mean end‐tidal halothane concentration was 1.24%. In the second group (n = 14) anaesthesia was maintained with both halothane (end‐tidal concentration 0.61%) and a continuous infusion of a ketamine–guaiphenesin mixture (HKG group). The two techniques were compared in terms of qualitative differences and cardiopulmonary effects. Results The stability of anaesthesia was significantly greater in group HKG and the need for dobutamine to maintain blood pressure was significantly less. Recovery times and quality were acceptable in all cases. There were no significant differences between the groups. Conclusions The infusion of ketamine and guaiphenesin in horses receiving low inspired concentrations of halothane provides suitable surgical anaesthesia and lowers the risk of hypotension. Clinical relevance The anaesthetic technique described in this study is a useful and practical alternative to inhalation anaesthesia using halothane alone.  相似文献

ObjectiveTo investigate a combination of azaperone, detomidine, butorphanol and ketamine (DBK) in pigs and to compare it with the combination of azaperone, tiletamine and zolazepam (TZ).Study designProspective, randomized, blinded, cross–over study.AnimalsTwelve clinically healthy crossbred pigs aged about 2 months and weighing 16–25 kg.MethodsPigs were pre–medicated with azaperone (4 mg kg?1). Ten minutes later anaesthesia was induced with intramuscular DBK (detomidine 0.08 mg kg?1, butorphanol 0.2 mg kg?1, ketamine 10 mg kg?1) or TZ (tiletamine and zolazepam 5 mg kg?1). The pigs were positioned in dorsal recumbency. Heart and respiratory rates, posture, anaesthesia score, PaO2, PaCO2, pH and bicarbonate concentration were measured. t–test was used to compare the areas under time–anaesthesia index curve (AUCanindex) between treatments. Data concerning heart and respiratory rates, PaO2, PaCO2 and anaesthesia score were analysed with anova for repeated measurements. Wilcoxon signed rank test was used for the data concerning the duration of sedation and anaesthesia.ResultsThe sedation, analgesia and anaesthesia lasted longer after DBK than TZ. The AUCanscore were 863 ± 423 and 452 ± 274 for DBK and TZ, respectively (p = 0.002). The duration of surgical anaesthesia lasted a median of 35 minutes (0–105 minutes) after DBK and a median of 15 minutes (0–35 minutes) after TZ (p = 0.05). Four pigs after DBK and six after TZ did not achieve the plane of surgical anaesthesia. The heart rate was lower after DBK than after TZ. Both treatments had similar effects on the other parameters measured.ConclusionsAt the doses used DBK was more effective than TZ for anaesthesia in pigs under field conditions.Clinical relevanceThe combinations can be used for sedation and minor field surgery in pigs. The doses and drugs chosen were insufficient to produce a reliable surgical plane of anaesthesia in these young pigs.  相似文献

Anaesthetic records of horses with colic anaesthetised between June 1987 and May 1989 were reviewed. pH and blood gas analyses were performed during 157 operations from which the horses were allowed to recover. A PaO2 of 8.0 kPa or less was measured during anaesthesia in seven of these horses. The horses were of different breeds, ages and sexes. Anaesthesia was induced with xylazine, guaifenesin and ketamine in four horses and with xylazine, guaifenesin and thiobarbiturate in three horses. Anaesthesia was maintained with inhalation anaesthetic agent and oxygen: isoflurane in five horses, halothane in one horse, and initially halothane but later isoflurane in one horse. Systolic arterial pressures during anaesthesia ranged from 80 to 150 mmHg, diastolic arterial pressures were between 60 and 128 mmHg, and heart rates were between 28 and 44 beats /min. Controlled ventilation was initiated at the start of anaesthesia. PaCO2 exceeded 6.7 kPa in three horses but was subsequently decreased by adjustment of the ventilator. PaO2 of 8.0 kPa or less was measured during early anaesthesia, with one exception, and persisted for the duration of anaesthesia. The horses' inspired air was supplemented with oxygen during recovery from anaesthesia, at which time measurement of blood gases in three horses revealed no increase in PaO2. Recovery from anaesthesia was uneventful. The surgical problems involved primarily the large intestine in five horses and the small intestine in two horses. Six horses were discharged from the hospital alive; one horse was reanaesthetised later the same day and destroyed without regaining consciousness. We concluded that none of the objective values recorded during the pre-anaesthetic evaluation could have been used to predict the complication of intraoperative hypoxaemia. We observed that once hypoxaemia developed it persisted for the duration of anaesthesia and even into the recovery period when the horses were in lateral recumbency and regaining consciousness. We assume that the altered metabolism from anaesthetic agents and hypothermia combined with adequate peripheral perfusion contributed to the lack of adverse consequences in six of the horses. The contribution of hypoxaemia to the deteriorating condition of the seventh horse is speculative.  相似文献

ObjectiveTo compare cardiopulmonary variables and blood gas analytes in guinea pigs (Cavia porcellus) during anesthesia with and without abdominal carbon dioxide (CO2) insufflation at intra-abdominal pressures (IAPs) 4 and 6 mmHg, with and without endotracheal intubation.Study designProspective experimental trial.AnimalsA total of six intact female Hartley guinea pigs.MethodsA crossover study with sequence randomization for IAP and intubation status was used. The animals were sedated with intramuscular midazolam (1.5 mg kg–1) and buprenorphine (0.2 mg kg–1) and anesthetized with isoflurane, and an abdominal catheter was inserted for CO2 insufflation. Animals with endotracheal intubation were mechanically ventilated and animals maintained using a facemask breathed spontaneously. After 15 minutes of insufflation, the following variables were obtained at each IAP: pulse rate, respiratory rate, rectal temperature, oxygen saturation, end-tidal CO2 (intubated only), peak inspiratory pressure (intubated only), noninvasive blood pressure and blood gas and electrolyte values, with a rest period of 5 minutes between consecutive IAPs. After 4 weeks, the procedure was repeated with the guinea pigs assigned the opposite intubation status.ResultsIntubated guinea pigs had significantly higher pH and lower partial pressure of CO2 in cranial vena cava blood (PvCO2) than nonintubated guinea pigs. An IAP of 6 mmHg resulted in a significantly higher PvCO2 (65.9 ± 19.0 mmHg; 8.8 ± 2.5 kPa) than at 0 (53.2 ± 17.2 mmHg; 7.1 ± 2.3 kPa) and 4 mmHg (52.6 ± 10.8 mmHg; 7.01 ± 1.4 kPa), mean ± standard deviation, with intubated and nonintubated animals combined.Conclusions and clinical relevanceAlthough the oral anatomy of guinea pigs makes endotracheal intubation difficult, capnoperitoneum during anesthesia induces marked hypercapnia in the absence of mechanical ventilation. An IAP of 4 mmHg should be further evaluated for laparoscopic procedures in guinea pigs because hypercapnia may be less severe than with 6 mmHg.  相似文献

Objective To compare isoflurane and sevoflurane in lambs undergoing prolonged anaesthesia for spinal surgery. Study design Prospective randomised clinical study. Animals Eighteen Scottish blackface lambs 3–6 weeks of age and weighing 10–17 kg. Methods After intramuscular medetomidine, anaesthesia was induced and maintained with either isoflurane (group I) or sevoflurane (group S) delivered in oxygen. Meloxicam, morphine, a constant rate infusion of ketamine and atracurium were given intravenously (IV) during surgery. Lungs were ventilated to maintain normocapnia. with peak inspiratory pressures of 20–25 cmH2O. Ephedrine or dextran 40% was administered when mean arterial pressure (MAP) was <55 mmHg. Intrathecal morphine, and IV meloxicam and edrophonium were injected before recovery. Time to loss of palpebral reflex (TLPR) upon induction, cardiorespiratory variables, time at first swallowing and other movement, tracheal extubation, vocalisation, spontaneous head lifting (>1 minute), reunion with the ewe, and the number of MAP treatments were recorded. Statistical analysis utilised anova , Mann–Whitney, t‐test or Pearson’s correlation test as relevant. p < 0.05 was considered significant. Results End‐tidal carbon dioxide (mean ± SD) was significantly lower in group S (5.5 ± 0.6 kPa) than in group I (5.8 ± 0.5 kPa) while MAP (70 ± 11 mmHg) and diastolic arterial blood pressure (60 ± 11 mmHg) were higher in group S than in group I (65 ± 12 and 54 ± 11 mmHg, respectively). No differences were found with TLPR and MAP treatments. Time (median, range) from end of anaesthesia to ewe‐lamb reunion was briefer (p = 0.018) in group S (48, 20–63 minutes). Conclusion Isoflurane and sevoflurane are both suitable for maintaining general anaesthesia in lambs although sevoflurane, as used in this study, allows a more rapid reunion with the ewe. Clinical relevance The principal advantage of sevoflurane over isoflurane during prolonged anaesthesia in lambs is a more rapid recovery.  相似文献

Propofol anaesthesia for surgery in late gestation pony mares   总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2  
Objective To characterize propofol anaesthesia in pregnant ponies. Animals Fourteen pony mares, at 256 ± 49 days gestation, undergoing abdominal surgery to implant fetal and maternal vascular catheters. Materials and methods Pre‐anaesthetic medication with intravenous (IV) acepromazine (20 µg kg?1), butorphanol (20 µg kg?1) and detomidine (10 µg kg?1) was given 30 minutes before induction of anaesthesia with detomidine (10 µg kg?1) and ketamine (2 mg kg?1) IV Maternal arterial blood pressure was recorded (facial artery) throughout anaesthesia. Arterial blood gas values and plasma concentrations of glucose, lactate, cortisol and propofol were measured at 20‐minute intervals. Anaesthesia was maintained with propofol infused initially at 200 µg kg?1 minute?1, and at 130–180 µg kg?1 minute?1 after 60 minutes, ventilation was controlled with oxygen and nitrous oxide to maintain PaCO2 between 5.0 and 6.0 kPa (37.6 and 45.1 mm Hg) and PaO2 between 13.3 and 20.0 kPa (100 and 150.4 mm Hg). During anaesthesia flunixin (1 mg kg?1), procaine penicillin (6 IU) and butorphanol 80 µg kg?1 were given. Lactated Ringer's solution was infused at 10 mL kg?1 hour?1. Simultaneous fetal and maternal blood samples were withdrawn at 85–95 minutes. Recovery from anaesthesia was assisted. Results Arterial blood gas values remained within intended limits. Plasma propofol levels stabilized after 20 minutes (range 3.5–9.1 µg kg?1); disposition estimates were clearance 6.13 ± 1.51 L minute?1 (mean ± SD) and volume of distribution 117.1 ± 38.9 L (mean ± SD). Plasma cortisol increased from 193 ± 43 nmol L?1 before anaesthesia to 421 ± 96 nmol L?1 60 minutes after anaesthesia. Surgical conditions were excellent. Fetal umbilical venous pH, PO2 and PCO2 were 7.35 ± 0.04, 6.5 ± 0.5 kPa (49 ± 4 mm Hg) and 6.9 ± 0.5 kPa (52 ± 4 mm Hg); fetal arterial pH, PO2 and PCO2 were 7.29 ± 0.06, 3.3 ± 0.8 kPa (25 ± 6 mm Hg) and 8.7 ± 0.9 kPa (65 ± 7 mm Hg), respectively. Recovery to standing occurred at 46 ± 17 minutes, and was generally smooth. Ponies regained normal behaviour patterns immediately. Conclusions and clinical relevance Propofol anaesthesia was smooth with satisfactory cardiovascular function in both mare and fetus; we believe this to be a suitable anaesthetic technique for pregnant ponies.  相似文献

Objective To compare arterial blood pressure measurements obtained from the femoral and auricular arteries in anaesthetized pigs. Study design Prospective experimental study. Animals Fifteen female Large White pigs were used weighing 21.3 ± 2.3 kg. Methods The pigs were anaesthetized with tiletamine/zolazepam and xylazine administered intramuscularly, and anaesthesia maintained with isoflurane delivered in oxygen/nitrogen. Arterial oxygen partial pressures were maintained between 11.3 and 13.3 kPa and PaCO2 between 4.6 and 6.0 kPa. Monitoring included electrocardiogram, capnography and invasive blood pressure. The auricular and femoral arteries were catheterized for continuous systolic (SAP), diastolic (DAP) and mean arterial pressure (MAP) measurements. Measurements were recorded every 15 minutes. Statistical analysis involved a Bland–Altman plot analysis. Results The mean difference ± confidence intervals between the femoral and the auricular arterial diastolic, systolic and mean blood pressure measurements during hypotension were 2 ± 7, 2 ± 5 and 2 ± 5 mmHg respectively. In conditions of normotension mean difference ± confidence intervals, of femoral and auricular arterial blood pressure measurements of diastolic, systolic and mean blood pressure were 4 ± 5, 3 ± 7 and 4 ± 4 mmHg respectively. In conditions of increased arterial blood pressure, mean difference ± confidence intervals, of femoral and auricular arterial blood pressure measurements of diastolic, systolic and mean blood pressure were 4 ± 5, 3 ± 8 and 4 ± 4 mmHg respectively. Conclusion Auricular artery catheterization is easier and quicker to perform. Pressure measurements from the auricular artery compared well with the femoral artery. Clinical relevance We found that auricular arterial blood pressures were similar to femoral arterial values under the conditions of this experiment. We did not test extremes of blood pressure or significant alterations in body temperature.  相似文献

In a prospective study we compared the EEG variables total amplitude (TA), 80% spectral edge frequency (SEF-80), the ratio of fractional amplitudes distributed into the BETA and DELTA frequency band (BETA/DELTA-ratio), and differences in arteriovenous oxygen content (AVD02), obtained from horses anaesthetized with either halothane (H; n=4) or isoflurane (I; n=4) in oxygen. All horses underwent orthopaedic procedures. After premedication with xylazine (0.88 mg/kg IV), anaesthesia was induced with diazepam (0.033 mg/kg IV) and ketamine (2.2 mg/kg IV). During anaesthesia horses were ventilated using IPPV. EEG variables and AVD02 were recorded at equal levels of surgical anaesthesia (stage III/1–2), as determined by clinical signs and a dominant delta activity in the EEG power spectrum. PaC02was kept between 35 mmHg and 45 mmHg, PaO2above 100 mmHg, and mean arterial blood pressure (MAP) was adjusted to at least 80 mmHg. The average body temperature was 35.4 ± 1.1°C (H) and 35.6 ± 0.7°C (I), respectively. In horses anaesthetized with I, TA was significantly higher (P<01) (I: 3533 ± 70 γV; H: 235.9 ± 63.4 γV), whereas SEF-80 (I: 10.7 ± 0.7 Hz; H: 12.4 ± 0.7 Hz) and BETA/DELTA-ratio (I: 035 ± 0.06; H: 0.53 ± 0.12) were significantly lower (P<01) compared with H. We also observed significantly lower (P<05) AVD02 values with I (1.5 ± 0.5 Vol%) than with H (2.0 ± 1.2 Vol%). Since a depression in cerebral activity during anaesthesia is characterized by a decrease in EEG frequency content and a concomitant increase in EEG amplitude, the authors conclude that at equal levels of surgical anaesthesia, isoflurane exerts a more pronounced depression in cerebral electrical and metabolic activity in horses.  相似文献

ObjectiveTo compare oxygenation and ventilation in white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus) anesthetized with two treatments with and without oxygen supplementation.Study designRandomized, blinded, crossover study.AnimalsA total of eight healthy adult white-tailed deer weighing 49–62 kg.MethodsEach deer was anesthetized twice intramuscularly: 1) treatment XK, xylazine (2 mg kg–1) and ketamine (6 mg kg–1) and 2) treatment XTZ, xylazine (2 mg kg–1) and tiletamine–zolazepam (4 mg kg–1). With the deer in sternal position, arterial and venous blood was collected before and at 30 minutes during administration of oxygen at 1 L minute–1 through a face mask. PaO2 and heart rate (HR) were compared using two-way repeated measures anova. pH, PaCO2 and lactate concentration were analyzed using mixed-effects linear models, p < 0.05.ResultsWhen breathing air, PaO2 was < 80 mmHg (10.7 kPa) in six and seven deer with XK and XTZ, respectively, and of these, PaO2 was < 60 mmHg (8.0 kPa) in three and five deer, respectively. With oxygen supplementation, PaO2 increased to 128 ± 4 and 140 ± 5 mmHg (17.1 ± 0.5 and 18.7 ± 0.7 kPa), mean ± standard error, with XK and XTZ, respectively (p < 0.001). PaO2 was not significantly different between treatments at either time point. HR decreased during oxygen supplementation in both treatments (p < 0.001). Lactate was significantly lower (p = 0.047) with XTZ than with XK (2.2 ± 0.6 versus 3.5 ± 0.6 mmol L–1) and decreased (p < 0.001) with oxygen supplementation (4.1 ± 0.6 versus 1.6 ± 0.6 mmol L–1). PaCO2 increased in XTZ during oxygen breathing.Conclusions and clinical relevanceTreatments XK and XTZ resulted in hypoxemia, which responded to oxygen supplementation. Both treatments are suitable for immobilization of white-tailed deer under the study circumstances.  相似文献
