Background: Incoming anaesthesia created by the use of many drugs with different physicochemical properties is a sourceof stress and trauma for the body. This event increases the oxidative response and changes the balance between oxidant/antioxidant capacity in the organism in favor of oxidant capacity. This situation is defined as oxidative stress. For thesereasons, studies are conducted to determine the effects of general anaesthetic agents on oxidant and antioxidant systems inthe organism. In this study, it was aimed to determine the effects of isoflurane and sevoflurane used for general anaesthesiain humans and animals on lipid peroxidation and antioxidant defense system in calves.Materials, Methods & Results: The study included 14 calves of different breeds, ages, sexes, and weighing, average 2 weeksold. The cases randomly were divided into 2 groups, the isoflurane group (group I), and the sevoflurane group (group II),and each group included 7 animals. Before general anaesthesia, 0.04 mg/kg atropine was administered intramuscularly toall animals for premedication. At 15 min after atropine administration, isoflurane was administered at an inspiratory concentration of 3-5% in group I, and sevoflurane was administered at an inspiratory concentration of 5-7% in group II, via aface mask for 15 min for the induction of anaesthesia. Endotracheal intubation was performed in all cases at the 15 min ofthe induction period following the onset of general anaesthesia symptoms. After the induction, anaesthesia was continuedat an inspiratory concentration of 1.5-3% in the isoflurane group and inspiratory concentration of 2.5-4% in the sevofluranegroup. Blood samples were taken just before anaesthesia, just before skin incision, at the end of anaesthesia and surgery,and at the 24 h postoperatively. The malondialdehyde (MDA), superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), glutathione...

Background: Inhalation anaesthesia is an effective and reliable general anaesthesia method for inactivity, analgesia, and unconsciousness in extensive surgical procedures. Although widely used, especially in small animals, there are very few studies investigated the reliability and superiority of inhalation anaesthesia in surgical procedures for ruminants. This study intended to evaluate the anaesthetic effects of isoflurane and sevoflurane in different surgical cases with endotracheal intubation following the induction of anaesthesia using a calve-specific facemask, which is not yet a routine option in cattle. Materials, Methods & Results: The study was conducted on 14 calves, from new-born up to 3 months-old, that undergoing various surgical operations. The animals were divided into isoflurane and sevoflurane groups, and each group contained 7 animals. In all cases, atropine (0.04 mg/kg was administered intramusculer as premedication before 15 min from anaesthesia induction. For induction, the anaesthetic agent was given at an inspiratory concentration of 3-5% in the isoflurane group and at an inspiratory concentration of 5 - 7% in the sevoflurane group during 5 min via mask at 15 min after atropine administration. In both groups, endotracheal intubation was performed (about 1-3 min) after of general anaesthesia symptoms starting. At 5 min after induction, anaesthesia was continued at 1.5 - 3% in the isoflurane group and at 2.5 - 4% in the sevoflurane group during operation. The animals were monitored during anaesthesia and, anaesthetic effect, reaction of the calve, pronounced side effects, Heart Rate (HR), Systolic Arterial Blood Pressure (SABP), Diastolic Arterial Blood Pressure (DABP), Mean Arterial Blood Pressure (MABP), Respiration Rate (RR), Pulse Rate (PR), Arterial Oxygen Saturation (SpO2 ) were recorded at before anaesthesia, the premedication period, 5...

Background: Ovariohysterectomy (OHE) is the most commonly performed elective surgical procedure in companionanimals. OHE offers benefits of control of population and decreased risk of potentially life-threatening diseases such asmammarian tumours and pyometra. Traditional OHE intervention causes inflammation and pain due to trauma duringorgan manipulation. The purpose of this study was to compare the effect of intraperitoneal and incisional administrationof bupivacaine (BP) or levobupivacaine (LP) on postoperative analgesia in dogs undergoing the OHE procedure.Materials, Methods & Results: A total of 24 mix-breed bitches aged between 1 - 3 years and weighed 19 - 20 kg wereused in this study. The animals were divided into three groups as control (n = 8), BP (n = 8) and LP group (n = 8). Theanimals were kept under surveillance at the hospitalisation unit of the animal hospital for one day before the elective OHE.The dogs were fasted for 12 h before the surgery, with adlib water consumption. Atropine sulphate 0.045 mg/kg was administered subcutaneously approximately 30 min before general anaesthesia. Midazolam (0.3 mg/kg) was intravenouslyinjected into all dogs for pre-anaesthetic medication. After sedation, anaesthesia was induced with propofol (4 mg/kg, IV)and then the dogs were orotracheally intubated using cuffed endotracheal tubes. General anaesthesia was maintained byadministration of 2% isoflurane. The ventral abdomen was prepared aseptically for OHE following the general anaesthesia.All animals were operated on by the same surgeon. During surgery, sprayed bupivacaine 0.5% (4.4 mg/kg) with an equalvolume of saline in BP group, levobupivacaine 0.5% (4.4 mg/kg) with an equal volume of saline in LP were then appliedover the ovaries, uterine broad ligaments and cervix uteri. After removal of the uterine body, either LP or BP was sprayedto left and right, or cranial and caudal parts of the abdominal cavity...

Background: Equine anesthesia morbidity and mortality rates are greater than in other domestic animals because of hypotension and hypoventilation. The important features desired in general anesthesia for horses are a rapid effect, rapid emergence and balanced anesthesia. The long duration of action of currently used anesthetic agents cause various complications in horses. The aim of the present study was to compare the clinical effects of combination of the anesthetics desflurane, detomidine and medetomidine in horses.Materials, Methods & Results: Eight healthy mixed-breed horses (four males and four females) with weighing 275 ± 56 kg [mean ± standard deviation (SD)] and aged 6.8 ± 5 years [(mean ± SD)] were used for this study. The horses were placed into one of four groups: group I (detomidine-desflurane), group II (detomidine-desflurane-atipamezole), group III (medetomidinedesflurane), or group IV (medetomidine-desflurane-atipamezole). Horses were rested for 15 days before each group starts to study. Intravenous detomidine (25 µg/kg) was used for premedication in groups I and II, and intravenous medetomidine (7 µg/ kg) was used for premedication in groups III and IV. Ketamine hydrocholoride (2 mg/kg) and midazolam (0.03 mg/kg) were intravenously administered in the same syringe to induce anesthesia.

After induction of anesthesia, horses were placed in the left lateral recumbent position, and the trachea was intubated with a cuffed endotracheal tube with an internal diameter of 28 mm. The endotracheal tube was attached to a large animal circle breathing system anesthesia machine, and anesthesia was maintained with desflurane for 90 min. The initial dosage of desflurane was 14% + 4 L O2/min, and was reduced by 2% every 10 min over the first 30 min of anesthesia. After 30 min, the desflurane dose was changed to 8% + 4 L, which was maintained until the end of anesthesia (90 min).[...]

Background: Bispectral index (BIS) monitor was developed to utilize the depth of anesthesia by estimating electroencephalogram (EEG) signals. BIS, which is the numerical value of EEG derivative, is used for evaluation of depression of central nervous system (CNS) in human medicine. The depressive effect of sedative and anaesthetic agents on CNS in human is correlated to BIS. Dexmedetomidine (DEX) is administered as continuous infusion during anesthesia and surgery in humans. DEX is a hypnotic with high selectivity for 2-adrenergic receptors.Materials, Methods & Results: Adult female New Zealand rabbits (mean ± SD body weight 3.8 ± 0.5 kg) were procured from a certified commercial source to use in medical researches. The animal number in each of the two study groups was four, for a total of eight. The rabbits were randomly divided into two equal groups (n = 4). The rabbits DEX group were administered 20 mcg/kg of iv. DEX HCI for premedication. Medetomidine (MED) group was administered 20 mcg/ kg of iv MED for premedication. Induction was provided by 5% of sevoflurane + 4 L/min oxygen via glove mask in the both groups. General anesthesia was maintained with 3% of sevoflurane + oxygen on spontaneous respiration for 30 min.

Sabe-se que a anestesia geral por si só já é capaz de causar substancial depressão cardiovascular e respiratória em equinos e tal característica pode ser potencializada ainda mais pelo posicionamento do paciente em decúbito dorsal e pela a administração de elevadas pressões intratorácicas durante as manobras de recrutamento utilizadas para reverter a hipoxemia. Sendo assim, o objetivo do atual estudo foi avaliar a mecânica respiratória e hemogasometria arterial após manobra de recrutamento alveolar e aplicação de PEEP para manutenção, em equinos ASA I e II submetidos à anestesia geral inalatória para cirurgia artroscópica, bem como qual o melhor valor da PEEP para manutenção do recrutamento alveolar. Para tanto foram utilizados 30 equinos, pesando em média 454 kg, submetidos a cirurgia artroscópica em decúbito dorsal, divididos aleatoriamente em 4 grupos, sendo eles: Controle; PEEP 7; PEEP 12; e PEEP 17. Os animais receberam xilazina (0,6 mg/kg) como MPA, seguida de indução anestésica (quetamina 2,2 mg/kg associado ao diazepam 0,05 mg/kg e EGG 10% 50 mg/kg) e anestesia inalatória com isofluorano. Os animais foram posicionados em decúbito dorsal e submetidos a ventilação com volume controlado (14ml/kg), FR de 7 mpm, relação I:E 1:3, PEEP 7 cmH2O e FiO2 de 0,7. Após período de instrumentação foi realizada MRA por titulação da PEEP a cada 5 minutos até alcançar PEEP de 22 cmH2O, sendo que os animais do grupo Controle não receberam MRA, apenas manutenção com PEEP de 7 cmH2O. Os animais dos outros grupos passaram pela MRA seguido de manutenção com suas PEEP de tratamento (7, 12 ou 17 cmH2O). Os parâmetros de mecânica respiratória e hemogasometria arterial foram avaliados imediatamente antes da MRA; e 5, 10, 15, 20, 40, 60 e 80 minutos após a MRA. Foram também avaliadas a FC, PAS, PAM e PAD, porcentagem de anestésico inalatório inspirado e expirado, ETCO2 e consumo de fármaco vasoativo. Os animais que receberam MRA apresentaram aumento na complacência estática e nos parâmetros de oxigenação após a manobra, nos animais do grupo PEEP 12 e 17 foi observada manutenção do incremento oriundo da MRA por pelo menos 80 minutos. Já os animais do grupo PEEP 7 apresentaram queda do incremento após 20 minutos da manobra, assim como o grupo Controle apresentou queda nos parâmetros de oxigenação e ventilação ao longo do tempo, ambos indicando uma provável fechamento pulmonar devido a PEEP insuficiente para manutenção dos alvéolos abertos. Não foram observadas alterações cardiovasculares nos animais do estudo, apenas leve taquicardia transitória no grupo PEEP 17 logo após a MRA. Portanto as PEEP de 12 e 17 cmH2O utilizadas após a MRA foram capazes de manter os alvéolos abertos, promovendo assim melhor trocas gasosas e o incremento na oxigenação e ventilação dos pacientes. Já os animais que receberam MRA e manutenção com PEEP de 7 cmH2O, foram capazes de manutenção dos alvéolos abertos por apenas 20 minutos.


It is known that general anaesthesia by its self is capable of causing substantial cardiovascular and respiratory depression in horses and this characteristic can be enhanced even more by patient positioned in dorsal recumbence and the administration of high intrathoracic pressures during recruitment manoeuvres used to reverse hypoxemia. Therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate the respiratory mechanics and arterial blood gas analysis after recruitment manoeuvre and PEEP for maintenance, in horses ASA I and II undergoing general isoflurane-anaesthesia for arthroscopic surgery and what is the best value PEEP to maintain alveolar recruitment. Therefore, we used 30 horses, weighing on average 454 kg, which underwent arthroscopic surgery in the dorsal recumbence, randomly allocated into one of the 4 groups, as follows: Control; PEEP 7; PEEP 12; and PEEP 17. Animals received xylazine (0,6 mg/kg) as pre anaesthetic medication followed by anaesthesia induction (ketamine 2,2 mg/kg associated to diazepam 0,05 mg/kg and EGG 10% 50 mg/kg) and maintenance with isoflurane-anaesthesia. The animals were positioned in dorsal recumbence and submitted the volume-controlled ventilation (14ml/kg), RR: 7 mpm, I:E ratio 1:3, 7 cmH2O of PEEP and FiO2 0,7. After instrumentation period was performed RM by PEEP titration every 5 minutes until reach 22 cmH2O of PEEP, and the animals of control group did not receive RM, only maintenance with PEEP 7 cmH2O. The animals of other groups went through the RM followed by maintenance with their treatment PEEP (7, 12 or 17 cmH2O). The respiratory parameters and blood gas samples were assessed immediately before the RM; and 5, 10, 15, 20, 40, 60 and 80 minutes after the manoeuvre. We also assessed the HR, SAP, MAP and DAP, percentage of inhaled anaesthetic: inhaled and exhaled, ETCO2 and vasoactive drug consumption. Animals receiving RM showed an increase in static compliance and oxygenation parameters after the manoeuvre, maintenance of the increase coming from the RM were observed in animals from PEEP 12 and 17 group, for at least 80 minutes. The animals in PEEP 7 group decreased the increase after 20 minutes of manoeuvre and the control group decreased the parameters of oxygenation and ventilation over time, both indicating a probable pulmonary closure due to insufficient PEEP to maintain the alveoli opened. Cardiovascular changes were observed in the study animals, only mild transient tachycardia in PEEP 17group soon after RM. Therefore, the PEEP 12 and 17 cmH2O used after RM were able to keep the lung opened, thereby performing better gas exchange and the increase in the oxygenation and ventilation of patients. The animals receiving RM and maintenance PEEP 7 cmH2O were able to maintain the alveoli open for only 20 minutes.

This study aimed to investigate the cardiopulmonary and analgesic effects of propofol and propofol/ketamine infusion in bitches premedicated with atropine and xylazine and submitted to ovariohisterectomy. In six bitches, anesthesia was induced by 5mg kg-1of propofol and maintained initially with 0.4mg kg-1.min-1 of propofol (GP). In the other six bitches, anesthesia was induced with a combination of 3.5mg kg-1 propofol and 1mg kg-1 of ketamine and maintained initially with 0.28mg kg-1.min-1 propofol and 0.06mg kg-1.min-1 of ketamine (GPK). Heart and respiratory rates, arterial blood pressure, minute ventilation, end tidal CO2, pulse hemoglobin O2 saturation, blood gas analysis, plasma glucose concentration and temperature were measured before and every 10 minutes during anesthesia. Mean arterial blood pressure reduced from 20 to 40 minutes of propofol anesthesia. Temperature reduction and hypercapnia with respiratory acidosis occurred in both groups during anesthesia. PaO2, bicarbonate and glucose increased only during propofol/ketamine anesthesia. Propofol infusion rate was increased by 50 and 20% during anesthesia in GP and GPK respectively to allow satisfactory surgical anesthesia. Both anesthetic protocols were safe and adequate for ovariohysterectomy in bitches, considering that controlled ventilation is performed when necessary and propofol infusion rate is adjusted to 0,.6 and 0.34mg kg-1.min-1 in GP and GPK according to the surgical stimulus.


Objetivou-se avaliar os efeitos cardiorrespiratório e analgésico da infusão contínua com propofol e propofol/cetamina em cadelas pré-medicadas com atropina e xilazina, submetidas a ovariossalpingohisterectomia (OSH). Em seis cadelas (GP) a indução anestésica foi realizada com propofol (5mg kg-1 iv), seguido da manutenção anestésica com o mesmo fármaco em infusão contínua intravenosa na taxa inicial de 0,4mg kg-1.min-1. Outras seis cadelas (GPC) receberam a associação de propofol (3,5mg kg-1 iv) e cetamina (1mg kg-1 iv) como indução anestésica. Depois, foi feita manutenção anestésica em infusão contínua intravenosa inicial com 0,28mg kg-1.min-1 e 0,06mg kg-1.min-1 de propofol e cetamina, respectivamente. Os seguintes parâmetros foram mensurados durante a anestesia a cada 10 minutos: freqüências cardíaca (FC) e respiratória (f), pressão arterial sistólica, média e diastólica (PA), concentração final expirada de CO2 (EtCO2), volume minuto (VM), pressão parcial de gás carbônico (PaCO2), pressão parcial de oxigênio (PaO2), saturação de oxigênio na hemoglobina (SatO2), pH, bicarbonato, glicemia e temperatura retal (T). Observou-se redução da pressão arterial média entre 20 e 40 minutos de anestesia no GP. Ocorreu redução da temperatura, hipercapnia e acidose respiratória em ambos os grupos durante a anestesia. A PaO2, o bicarbonato e a glicose aumentaram de forma significativa apenas no GPC durante a anestesia. Houve necessidade de aumentar em 50 e 20% a taxa de infusão de propofol no GP e GPC respectivamente para anestesia cirúrgica satisfatória. Dessa forma, ambos os protocolos mostraram-se seguros e suficientes do ponto de vista de anestesia cirúrgica para realização da OSH em cadelas, desde que a ventilação assistida ou controlada seja instituída quando necessária e a velocidade de infusão do propofol seja 0,6 e 0,34mg kg-1.min-1 nos grupos GP e GPC, respectivamente.

Este estudo correlacionou os tempos de jejum sólido pré-anestésico com alterações nos níveis de glicemia plasmática, cortisol sérico, estado clínico e equilíbrio ácido-base em cães submetidos a anestesia geral inalatória. Utilizaram-se oito animais, adultos, sem raça definida, distribuídos de acordo com o período de jejum sólido: Grupo 1 (12horas), Grupo 2 (18 horas) e Grupo 3 (24 horas). Foi acompanhado o esvaziamento do conteúdo gástrico e em seguida, todos animais foram submetidos ao mesmo procedimento anestésico. Freqüência cardíaca e respiratória, temperatura retal, tempo de reperfusão capilar, grau de hidratação e pressão arterial não-invasiva foram mensurados previamente à administração de acepromazina, 10 minutos decorridos da mesma e a cada 10 minutos durante a manutenção anestésica, incluindo-se ETCO2; valores hemogasométricos (pH, PaCO2, PaO2,HCO3, CO2 total, SatO2, déficit de base), glicêmicos e de cortisol sérico foram avaliados previamente à MPA e a cada trinta minutos durantea manutenção anestésica. No período de recuperação anestésica, novas dosagens glicêmicas e de cortisol foram realizadas. Constataram-se poucas alterações cardiocirculatórias e respiratórias durante a anestesia, não havendo interferência dos diferentes tempos de jejum. Os animais com 12 horas de jejum pré-anestésico apresentaram glicemia mais elevada do que os demais grupos, no período de recuperação anestésica. As concentrações de cortisol não foram afetadas pelo jejum. O jejum pré-anestésico sólido, independente do tempo de duração, caracterizou um quadro de discreta alcalose respiratória. Todos os animais apresentaram-se em bom estado clínico nos três grupos. Recomenda-se jejum pré-anestésico sólido de 18 horas para garantir ausência completa de conteúdo alimentar sólido no estômago.(AU)


This study correlated the solid preoperative fasting periods with plasma glycemia, serum cortisol, condition clinic and acid-base balance in dogs submitted to inhalation of general anaesthesia. Eight adults, animals were distributed into three groups in accordance with solid preoperative fasting: group 1 (12 hours), group 2 (18 hours) and group 3 (24hours). Gastric emptying was observed and following this animals were submitted to the same anesthetic procedure. Heart and respiratory rate, rectal temperature, capillary refill time, percent hydration and noninvasive arterial pressure determined before and after Acepromazine and every 10 minutes during anaesthesia, included ETCO2; values blood gas (pH, PaCO2, PaO2, HCO3, TCO2, SaO2,BE), glycemic and serum cortisol were analyzed before MPA and each 30 minutes during anaesthesia. In recovery anaesthetic, glycemia and serum cortisol were repeated. During anaesthesia there were little cardiovascular and respiratory alteration not having interference of the preoperative fasting periods. Animals with 12 hours of the preoperative fasting showed a higher rise in glycemia levels than others groups in recovery anaesthetic. Serum cortisol wasnt influenced by fasting. Solid preoperative fasting independent of the duration describe a discreet respiratory alkalosis. All animals showed good clinical condition in all three groups. Solid preoperative fasting of the 18 hours is recommended to ensure a complete absence of the solid food contents in stomach.(AU)

Resumo

Estudaram-se as alterações hemodinâmicas e respiratórias em cadelas, decorrentes do parto normal e da cesariana, utilizando-se sevofluorano como agente de manutenção anestésica. Foram acompanhados seis partos normais e seis cesarianas, sendo as últimas realizadas sob anestesia geral utilizando-se acepromazina, propofol e sevofluorano. Durante o parto normal, ao nascimento de cada filhote, as gestantes foram monitoradas (temperatura retal, pressão arterial não-invasiva, freqüências respiratória e cardíaca, tempo de reperfusão capilar e gasometria). Durante a cesariana foram avaliadas as mesmas características citadas para o parto normal, acrescentando-se a temperatura esofágica e a pressão arterial invasiva, ao longo de todo o período anestésico, além da qualidade da recuperação anestésica. Os valores das variáveis: freqüência cardíaca, pressão arterial, freqüência respiratória, tempo de reperfusão capilar e o pH do sangue arterial no grupo submetido à cesariana foram menores que os das cadelas de partos normais, evidenciando a relativa depressão cardiorrespiratória produzida pelo procedimento anestésico. O protocolo anestésico empregado não comprometeu a viabilidade e a saúde das parturientes e dos filhotes e é seguro em cadelas gestantes, podendo ser utilizado nas operações cesarianas.(AU)


Haemodynamic and respiratory changes in 12 bitches, being six of natural birth and six caesarean using sevoflurane as an anaesthetic maintenance agent, were studied. The caesarean sections were performed using general anaesthesia, employing acepromazine maleate, propofol and sevoflurane. During natural birth, as each puppy was being delivered, the bitches were evaluated (rectal temperature, non-invasive arterial blood pressure respiratory and cardiac rate, capillary time reperfusion and blood gas values). During the caesarean, the same parameters mentioned for the natural birth were measured, in addition to the esophagus temperature and invasive arterial blood pressure throughout the anaesthetic period, besides the anaesthetic recovery quality. The bitches, submitted to the caesarean sections showed lower values of cardiac frequency, arterial pressure, respiratory frequency, time of capilar reperfusion and arterial blood pH when compared to the bitches which underwent natural birth, showing the cardiorespiratoy depression induced by the anaesthetic procedure. In spite of the anaesthetic depression, the anaesthetic protocol employed had no effect on the viability and health of the bitches and the puppies, and can be safely recommend for caesarean sections.(AU)

Resumo

Many chemicals have been used as anaesthetics in fish farms and fish biology laboratories to keep the fish immobilized during handling procedures and to prevent accidents and animal stress. In Brazil, tricaine methane sulfonate (MS 222), quinaldine sulfate, benzocaine, and phenoxyethanol are the most common fish anaesthetics used to prevent fish stress during handling, but many side effects such as body and gill irritations, corneal damage and general risks of intoxication have been reported. Clove oil is a natural product proposed as an alternative fish anaesthetic by many researchers and it has been used in many countries with great economic advantages and no apparent toxic properties. In this work, we assessed the suitability of clove oil to anaesthetize matrinxã. Sixty-three juveniles of matrinxã were exposed to seven anaesthetic batches of clove oil (pharmaceutical grade) namely 18, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, and 70 mg/L. The times to reach total loss of equilibrium and to recover the upright position were measured. Clove oil concentration about 40 mg/L was enough to anaesthetize the fish in approximately one minute and the recovery time was independent in regard to anaesthetic concentration.


Diversos produtos químicos têm sido empregados como anestésicos para peixes nas estações de piscicultura e laboratórios de biologia de peixes para a devida imobilização dos organismos, afim de se prevenir acidentes e ferimentos na superfície do corpo dos próprios peixes, que podem ficar susceptíveis a patógenos e taxas altas de mortalidade. A tricaina metano sulfonato (MS 222), a quinaldina, a benzocaina e o phenoxyethanol têm sido amplamente utilizados no Brasil, mas alguns efeitos colaterais são observados como perda de muco, irritação nas brânquias e olhos, e também alguns incômodos aos trabalhadores como a necessidade do uso de luvas. Dessa forma, o óleo de cravo é proposto como um anestésico alternativo por ser um produto natural de custo acessível e sem riscos aparentes de intoxicações. No presente trabalho estudamos a possibilidade do uso do óleo de cravo como anestésico para juvenis de matrinxã, utilizando-se 63 peixes, expondo-os a banhos anestésicos nas concentrações de 18, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60 e 60 mg/L, de forma que foram mensurados os tempos necessários para que os peixes atingissem a perda total de equilíbrio e a incapacidade de retornar a posição normal de nado. A concentração de 40 mg/L foi suficiente para anestesiar juvenis de matrinxã em aproximadamente 1 minuto, sendo a recuperação independente da concentração do anestésico.
