Anestesia total intravenosa com propofol associado ao fentanil, lidocaínaou cetamina em cadelas submetidas à ovariossalpingohisterectomia eletiva / Total intravenous anesthesia with propofol associated with fentanyl, lidocaine or ketamine in bitches submitted to elective ovariohysterectomy

Background: Total intravenous anesthesia with propofol is an alternative to inhalation anesthesia because it offers smoother anesthetic recovery, however, since propofol does not have adequate analgesic action, it is necessary to associate it with some drug to avoid the pain process. In addition, the combination may minimize cardiovascular depression resulting from continuous infusion of propofol by reducing infusion rate. The aim of this study was to evaluate cardiorespiratory parameters and anesthetic recovery in bitches submitted to continuous infusion of fentanyl, lidocaine and ketamine associated with total intravenous anesthesia with propofol and submitted to elective ovariohisterectomy. Materials, Methods & Results: Twenty-four bitches were medicated intramuscularly with 0.03 mg/kg of acepromazine. After 30 min, they were divided into three groups with different analgesic treatments: group F (GF) received a loading dose (LD) of 0.0036 mg/kg fentanyl, followed by continuous infusion of 0.0036 mg/kg/h; group L (GL), LD of 3 mg/kg lidocaine, followed by 3 mg/kg/h and group K (GK), LD of 0.6 mg/kg ketamine, followed by 0.6 mg/kg/h. First a LD of analgesic treatment was administered, followed by induction (to the effect) and beginning of continuous infusion of the analgesic treatment and propofol. The animals were intubated with endotracheal tube of adequate size, and connected to 100% oxygen, being kept under spontaneous ventilation during the entire period of anesthetic maintenance. The infusion of propofol started at 0.34 mg/kg/min and was adjusted so as to maintain the surgical anesthesia plane of Guedel and the cardiovascular parameters within the physiological limits for the species. The cardiorespiratory parameters were measured at different moments: basal (before application of any drug) and 5, 15, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70 and 80 min after induction. The surgery started 20 min after anesthetic induction and lasted 60 min. […](AU)

Minimum alveolar concentration of isoflurane in dogs administered a single intramuscular injection of racemic or S (+)-ketamine after premedication with acepromazine-morphine / Concentração alveolar mínima do isoflurano em cães tratados com dose única intramuscular de cetamina racêmica ou S (+) após premedicação com acepromazina-morfina

The present study evaluated the minimum alveolar concentration of isoflurane (ISOMAC) in twenty three dogs premedicated with acepromazine (0.02mgkg-1) and morphine (0.5mgkg-1) and administered racemic (RK) or S(+)-ketamine (SK). Dogs randomly received a single dose (3mgkg-1, IM) of either RK or SK 15minutes after anesthetic induction with propofol. The ISOMAC was determined by the up-and-down method. Approximately 20 minutes after administration of RK or SK, a surgical noxious stimulus was applied and the response evaluated. The ISOMAC was 0.50±0.01% in the RK group (n=10) and 0.31±0.04% in the SK group (n=13). The ISOMAC was 38% lower in the SK group compared to the RK group. Results of the present study revealed that in dogs premedicated with acepromazine and morphine, IM administration of 3mgkg-1 ketamine approximately 20 minutes before the noxious stimulus produced clinically important reduction in the ISOMAC and the MAC-sparing effect was significantly greater with SK compared to RK.

No presente estudo, foi avaliada a concentração alveolar mínima do isoflurano (CAMISO) em vinte e três cães premedicados com acepromazina (0,02mgkg-1) e morfina (0,5mgkg-1) e tratados com cetamina racêmica (CR) ou S(+) (CS). Os cães receberam aleatoriamente dose única (3mgkg-1, IM) de CR ou CS, decorridos 15 minutos da indução anestésica com propofol. A CAMISO foi determinada pelo método up-and-down. Aproximadamente 20 minutos após a administração da CR ou CS, um estímulo nociceptivo (cirúrgico) foi aplicado e a resposta avaliada. A CAMISO foi 0,50±0,01% no CR (n=10) e 0,31±0,04% no CS (n=13). A CAMISO foi 38% menor no CS comparado ao CR. Os resultados deste estudo revelaram que, em cães premedicados com acepromazina e morfina, a administração IM de 3mgkg-1 de cetamina, aproximadamente 20 minutos antes do estímulo nociceptivo, causou redução clinicamente importante na CAMISO e o efeito redutor na CAMISO é significativamente maior com CS do que com CR.
