ABSTRACT

Objective: To compare the perioperative opioid requirements among dogs receiving an erector spinae plane (ESP) block with bupivacaine, with or without dexmedetomidine, and a control group. Animals and procedure: Thirty client-owned, healthy adult dogs undergoing hemilaminectomy were included in this randomized, prospective, blinded clinical study. Dogs were randomly assigned to 1 of 3 treatment groups: Group B, ESP block with bupivacaine; Group BD, ESP block with bupivacaine and dexmedetomidine; and Group C, control. Rescue intra- and postoperative analgesia consisted of fentanyl and methadone, respectively. Postoperative pain was evaluated using the short form of the Glasgow Composite Measure Pain Scale (CMPS-SF). Results: In Group BD, 0/10 dogs required intraoperative fentanyl, compared to 9/10 in Group C (P < 0.001), whereas 1/10 required postoperative methadone, compared to 9/10 in Group B (P = 0.003) and 10/10 in Group C (P < 0.001). The total amount of intraoperative fentanyl (µg/kg) was 0 (0 to 4) in Group B and 0 (0 to 0) in BD, compared to 6 (0 to 8) in C (P = 0.004 and P < 0.001, respectively). Postoperative methadone (mg/kg) required during the first 12 h was 0.5 (0 to 1.4) in Group B (P = 0.003) and 0 (0 to 0) in BD (P < 0.001), compared to C (P = 0.003 and P < 0.001, respectively). Conclusion: An ESP block with bupivacaine, with or without dexmedetomidine, was associated with a reduction in perioperative opioid consumption and provided effective acute pain control.


Effets analgésiques périopératoires du bloc des érecteurs du rachis avec de la bupivacaïne ou de la bupivacaïne-dexmédétomidine chez les chiens subissant une hémilaminectomie: un essai contrôlé randomisé. Objectif: Comparer les besoins périopératoires en opioïdes chez les chiens recevant un bloc des érecteurs de la colonne vertébrale (ESP) avec de la bupivacaïne, avec ou sans dexmédétomidine, et un groupe témoin. Animaux et procédure: Trente chiens adultes en bonne santé appartenant à des clients subissant une hémilaminectomie ont été inclus dans cette étude clinique randomisée, prospective et en aveugle. Les chiens ont été répartis au hasard dans 1 des 3 groupes de traitement: groupe B, bloc ESP avec bupivacaïne; groupe BD, bloc ESP avec bupivacaïne et dexmédétomidine; et groupe C, témoin. L'analgésie de secours peropératoire et postopératoire consistait respectivement en fentanyl et en méthadone. La douleur postopératoire a été évaluée à l'aide du formulaire abrégé de l'échelle de mesure de la douleur de Glasgow (CMPS-SF). Résultats: Dans le groupe BD, 0/10 chiens ont eu besoin de fentanyl peropératoire, contre 9/10 dans le groupe C (P < 0,001), tandis que 1/10 ont eu besoin de méthadone postopératoire, contre 9/10 dans le groupe B (P = 0,003) et 10/10 dans le groupe C (P < 0,001). La quantité totale de fentanyl peropératoire (µg/kg) était de 0 (0 à 4) dans le groupe B et de 0 (0 à 0) dans le groupe BD, contre 6 (0 à 8) dans le groupe C (P = 0,004 et P < 0,001, respectivement). La méthadone postopératoire (mg/kg) nécessaire au cours des 12 premières heures était de 0,5 (0 à 1,4) dans le groupe B (P = 0,003) et de 0 (0 à 0) dans le groupe BD (P < 0,001), par rapport au groupe C (P = 0,003). et P < 0,001, respectivement). Conclusion: Un bloc ESP avec de la bupivacaïne, avec ou sans dexmédétomidine, a été associé à une réduction de la consommation peropératoire d'opioïdes et a permis un contrôle efficace de la douleur aiguë.(Traduit par Dr Serge Messier).

ABSTRACT

Background: Alfaxalone is commonly used in veterinary anesthesia for the induction of general anesthesia (GA) in dogs. However, it has been associated with dose-dependent cardiovascular depression. Therefore, the administration of liposoluble, intravenous (IV)-administered injectable induction agents, such as alfaxalone, is recommended to be based on the dog's lean body mass (LBM). Aim: To determine the influence of body condition score (BCS) on IV alfaxalone dose requirements to achieve endotracheal intubation in dogs. Methods: Prospective clinical study. A group of 34 dogs undergoing GA for diagnostic and/or surgical procedures, body weight (BW) > 4 kg, BCS > 2, age 1-14 years, American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASAs) classification I-III. Dogs were allocated to two different groups according to their BCS: non-overweight group (NOW) BCS: 3-5 and over-weight group (OW) BCS: 6-9. All dogs were premedicated IV with methadone 0.2 mg kg-1, and anesthesia was induced by a slow IV infusion of alfaxalone at 1 mg kg-1 minute-1, delivered with a syringe driver, until loss of jaw tone and no/minimal gagging reflex sufficient to allow endotracheal intubation was achieved. The total dose of alfaxalone and the occurrence of post-induction apnoea were recorded.The Shapiro-Wilk test was performed to test for normality. A Chi-square test was performed to compare the incidence of post-induction apnoea between groups, and the Mann-Whitney U test was performed to compare the induction dose of alfaxalone between groups. A p-value < 0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results: The mean dose ± standard deviation of alfaxalone in NOW was 2.18 ± 0.59 mg kg-1, and in OW, it was 1.63 ± 0.26 mg kg-1 (p = 0.002). The sedation score did not differ between groups. Postinduction apnoea (PIA) occurred in 6 of 17 animals in NOW and 15 of 17 in OW (p = 0.002). Conclusion: The dose of IV alfaxalone per kg of total body mass required to achieve endotracheal intubation was lower in overweight dogs, suggesting that LBM should be considered when calculating IV anesthetic doses. The incidence of post-induction apnoea was higher in overweight/obese dogs with alfaxalone administered at a rate of 1 mg kg-1 minute-1.
