RESUMEN

ABSTRACT: The objective of this study was to investigate the echocardiographic changes during anesthesia induction in dogs sedated with acepromazine (0.05mg/kg) and butorphanol (0.3mg/kg) (AB). Twenty-four male dogs, with a mean weight of 12.40kg±3.1kg, were randomly assigned to 4 groups (n=6). Fifteen minutes after administering pre-anesthetic medication, anesthesia with diazepam (0.5mg/kg) and etomidate (1mg/kg) (group DE); diazepam (0.5mg/kg) and ketamine (3mg/kg) (group CD); propofol (4mg/kg) (group P); or ketamine (1mg/kg) and propofol (3mg/kg) (group CP) was administered to the 6 dogs in each group. Systolic blood pressure (SBP) was measured and echocardiography was performed immediately prior to the application of the sedation protocol (baseline), 15 minutes after sedation (M1), and immediately after anesthesia induction (M2). No significant differences were observed in SBP and in hemodynamic variables such as cardiac index, shortening fraction, and ejection fraction, between groups at all time points (M0, M1, and M2) evaluated. The SBP was significantly reduced after anesthetic induction in the dogs of the DE and CP groups. It can be concluded that the protocols DE and CP reduce similarly to SPB in dogs medicated with CD and P to SBP remain stable after anesthetic induction. All anesthetic induction protocols maintained a stable IC in premedicated dogs. None of the protocols evaluated promoted significant echocardiographic changes. Furthermore, the ketamine and diazepam combination had a negative impact on myocardial relaxation.

RESUMO: O aumento crescente da expectativa de vida dos cães, faz com que muitos animais cardiopatas necessitem de um procedimento anestésico-cirúrgico. Os objetivos do estudo foram investigar as alterações ecocardiográficas de protocolos de indução anestésica, em cães sedados com acepromazina (0,05mg/kg) e butorfanol (0,3mg/kg) (AB). Foram utilizados 24 cães, machos, SRD, com peso médio de 12,40±3,1kg, os quais foram alocados aleatoriamente em quatro grupos (n=6). Após 15 minutos da medicação pré-anestésica, foi realizada indução anestésica com diazepam (0,5mg/kg)/etomidato (1mg/kg) (DE), ou diazepam (0,5mg/kg)/cetamina (3mg/kg) (CD), oupropofol (4mg/kg) (P) ou cetamina (1mg/kg)/propofol (3mg/kg) (CP). Aferiu-se a PAS e ecocardiografia imediatamente antes da aplicação do protocolo de sedação (basal), 15 minutos após a sedação (M1) e imediatamente após a indução anestésica (M2). Não foram observadas diferenças significativas na PAS e nas variáveis hemodinâmicas como índice cardíaco, fração de encurtamento, fração de ejeção, entre os grupos, em todos os momentos avaliados. A PAS reduziu significativamente, após indução anestésica, nos cães do grupo DE e CP. A FC reduziu, após indução, em relação aos valores pós sedação, somente no grupo CD, mantendo-se estável nos demais grupos estudados. Conclui-se que os protocolos DE e CP reduzem de maneira semelhante a PAS, nos cães medicados com CD e P a PAS mantêm-se estável, após indução anestésica. Todos os protocolos de indução anestésica mantém estáveis o IC em cães pré-medicados. Nenhum dos protocolos avaliados promove alterações ecocardiográficas significativas. Aassociação cetamina/diazepam tem um impacto negativo no relaxamento miocárdico.

RESUMEN

ABSTRACT: The present study aimed to evaluate the effects of different sedation protocols on blood pressure and echocardiographic and electrocardiographic parameters in dogs. In total, 24 male mixed-breed dogs with a mean weight of 9.87±3.0kg were used.Animals were randomly divided into four groups (n=6), which were subjected to sedation using the following protocols: acepromazine (0.05mgkg-1) and butorphanol (0.3mgkg-1) (AB); acepromazine (0.05mgkg-1)and methadone (0.5mgkg-1) (AM); acepromazine (0.03mgkg-1), methadone (0.5mgkg-1), and midazolam (0.3mgkg-1)(MAM); and methadone only (0.5mgkg-1) (M). Indirect blood pressure (BP) measurements and computerized electrocardiography (ECG) and echocardiography (ECO) were performed immediately before the application of the sedation protocol (baseline), and the same evaluations were repeated after 15 minutes. BP decreased in groups AB, MAM, and AM compared to baseline values. Electrocardiographic measurements showed decreased heart rates (HRs) after sedation in all groups, and bradycardia was observed after sedation in two dogs from group M and one animal from group AM. The P-wave duration increased after sedation in groups AM and M. After sedation, no changes in cardiac dimensions were revealed byECO.Fractional shortening (FS) decreased after sedation in the AM group, and dogs from group AB exhibited a smaller decrease in FS compared with the other groups. The cardiac index (CI) was lower in groups AM and M than in the other groups. Animals from group AB were less resistant to examination and exhibited the most favorable sedation scores. It was concluded that the combination of acepromazine and butorphanol was the best sedation protocol for performing echocardiogram measurementsbecause dogs were less resistant to examinations and echocardiographic parameters of FS and CI remained stable.

Foram utilizados 24 cães, machos, SRD, com peso médio de 9,87±3,0kg, os quais foram alocados aleatoriamente em quatro grupos (n=6), que foram submetidos à sedação com os protocolos acepromazina (0,05mgkg-1) e butorfanol (0,3mgkg-1) (AB), acepromazina (0,05mgkg-1) e metadona (0,5mgkg-1) (AM), acepromazina (0,03mgkg-1), metadona (0,5mgkg-1) e midazolam (0,3mgkg-1) (MAM) e metadona isolada (0,5mgkg-1) (M). Foi realizada avaliação da pressão arterial sistólica (PAS) não invasiva, eletrocardiografia computadorizada e ecocardiografia imediatamente antes da aplicação do protocolo de sedação (basal) e repetindo-se as mesmas avaliações, 15 minutos após. Observou-se redução na PAS nos grupos AB, MAM, AM, em relação ao basal. Na eletrocardiografia, houve redução da FC após sedação em todos grupos, sendo observada bradicardia após sedação em dois cães do grupo M e um animal do grupo AM. A duração da onda P aumentou após sedação nos grupos AM e M. Não foram observadas alterações nas dimensões cardíacas, avaliadas pela ecocardiografia, após sedação. A fração de encurtamento (FS) reduziu após sedação no AM e os cães do AB apresentaram menor queda da FS, diferindo dos demais grupos. O índice cardíaco (IC) foi menor no AM e M em relação aos demais. Os animais do grupo AB foram menos resistentes à execução dos exames, apresentando melhores escores de sedação. Concluiu-se que a associação acepromazina e butorfanol foi o melhor protocolo de sedação para realização do ecocardiograma, sendo os cães menos resistentes à execução do exame, mantendo estáveis os parâmetros ecocardiográficos de fração de encurtamento e índice cardíaco.

RESUMEN

Background: Dioctophyma renale is a giant worm, nematode parasite, which infest dogs, rarely humans or other domestic and wild species. The life cycle is complex and infestation occurs by ingestion of aquatic oligochaete (annelid), fish and frogs. This nematode normally installs in the right kidney of dog, however, there are reports of ectopic migration, such as, for example, in the stomach, abdominal cavity, liver, bladder, ureters, urethra, scrotum, uterus, ovaries, mesenteric lymph nodes, mammary gland, thoracic and pericardial cavity. The aim of this work is to report the location of erratic Dioctophyma renale in the left testicle of a dog. Case: A mongrel dog, about 4 years old, weighing 7.7 kg, rescued from the street after being hit by a car was admitted at the Veterinary Clinical Hospital of CAV / UDESC. Clinical examination showed no significant changes, except for the crackling of pelvic bones, suggesting pelvic fracture. Pelvic radiography and abdominal ultrasound were requested, and complete blood count as pre-anesthetic evaluation was performed. The blood count showed leukocytosis with neutrophilia with a regenerative left shift. The patient was referred for pelvic fixation and in the same procedure orchiectomy was performed. The premedication was acepromazine 0.05 mg/kg and morphine 0.5 mg/kg, administrated intramuscularly. Anesthesia was induced with propofol and [...]

RESUMEN

Os felinos biotransformam o propofol lentamente, desenvolvendo efeito cumulativo. Neste sentido, objetivou-se desenvolver um esquema de infusão contínua de propofol a taxa variada tempo dependente em gatos. Foram utilizadas 16 gatas hígidas as quais foram submetidas à ovariossalpingohisterectomia eletiva e receberam como medicação pré-anestésica (MPA) dexmedetomidina (2,5?g/kg), metadona (0,5mg/kg) e cetamina (0,5mg/kg) por via intramuscular. Após 15 minutos, os animais foram alocados em dois grupos: Taxa Fixa (GTF), que receberam propofol 4mg/kg, seguido de infusão contínua (IC) na taxa de 0,3mg/kg/min durante 60 minutos; e Taxa Variada (GTV) que receberam o mesmo protocolo de indução com as taxas de IC iniciando em 0,3mg/kg/min durante 10 minutos, 0,25mg/kg/min até 25 minutos, 0,2 mg/kg/min até 45 minutos e 0,15mg/kg/min até 60 minutos de infusão baseado no software de simulação STAMPUMP®. Avaliaram-se as frequências cardíaca (FC) e respiratória (f), pressão arterial sistólica (PAS) e a manutenção do plano anestésico durante 60 minutos de infusão, bem como, os tempos para extubação, para decúbito esternal e de recuperação total. Observou-se plano anestésico similar em ambos os grupos, porém no GTV utilizou-se 30% menos propofol para manutenção da anestesia.

RESUMEN

Acute stress induced by physical restraint can interfere with the validity of laboratory findings. Sedation could minimize such stress. However, it is not known whether sedation can affect hematologic and hemostatic parameters in cats. The purpose of this study was to evaluate hematologic and hemostatic parameters in domestic cats subjected to physical restraint in addition to one of two sedation protocols. In total, 50 cats were subjected to physical restraint and were then randomly divided into two groups of 25 animals, receiving dexmedetomidine (5 µg/kg) and butorphanol (0.3 mg/kg; DB group) or dexmedetomidine (5 µg/kg), butorphanol (0.3 mg/kg) and ketamine (3 mg/kg; DBK group). The cats were assessed for acute stress, sedation level, onset of sedation and duration of sedation. Blood samples were collected after handling and after sedation. The complete blood count (CBC), platelet count, buccal mucosal bleeding time (BMBT), whole-blood clotting time, prothrombin time (PT), activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT) and thrombin time (TT) were determined for each sample, before and after chemical restraint. No statistically significant differences were found in the hematologic parameters. Certain hemostatic parameters (PT, aPTT and TT) were higher in the DB group (P <0.05). The onset of sedation was similar in the two groups, and the duration of sedation was longer in the DBK group. Both sedation protocols were effective for short-duration chemical restraint for blood collection from the studied cats, and no clinically relevant effects on hematologic or hemostatic parameters were detected.

RESUMEN

Visando avaliar os efeitos cardiovasculares e analgésicos de dois protocolos epidurais em felinos submetidos à OSH, 16 gatas mestiças, adultas, que, após indução à anestesia geral, receberam anestesia epidural (L7 - S1) com 0,26mL kg-1 de ropivacaína 0,75%, isolada (GR) ou associada a 0,1mg kg-1 morfina (GRM). A ETCO2, f, FC, PAS, T°R e relaxamento muscular foram avaliados no momento basal, 30 minutos após epidural, após incisão de pele, ligadura dos pedículos ovarianos e cérvix, final da celiorrafia e cirurgia, sendo administrado fentanil, caso ocorresse aumento de 20% na PAS, FC ou f em relação ao momento basal. Ao final do procedimento, foram avaliados, com auxílio de uma escala multidimensional de dor aguda em felinos, durante 12 horas, e, quando a pontuação fosse ≥8, era realizado resgate analgésico com morfina 0,2mg kg-1. Não ocorreram diferenças entre ETCO2, f, T°C e relaxamento muscular. A PAS aumentou em ambos os grupos durante o pinçamento dos pedículos ovarianos e cérvix, quando 100% dos animais do GR e 87,5% do GRM necessitaram fentanil transoperatório. Em 100% dos animais do GR, houve necessidade de morfina pós-operatória às 2 e 4 horas de avaliação, comparados com 50% e 37,5% no GRM. Nos momentos seguintes aos resgates, o somatório de pontos foi semelhante entre grupos. Conclui-se que a administração epidural de ropivacaína associada à morfina em gatas submetidas à ovariosalpingohisterectomia reduz o requerimento analgésico pós-operatório em até 56,2%, durante as primeiras 4 horas, e promove analgesia adequada durante 12 horas, quando comparado à ropivacaína isolada.

Seeking to evaluate the cardiovascular and analgesic effects of two epidural protocols in cats undergoing OH, 16 female adult mixed-breed cats were induced to general anesthesia, and then epidural was achieved with 0,26mL kg-1 of isolated ropivacaine (GR) (0,75%) or associated with 0,1mg kg-1 morphine (GRM). ETCO2, RR, HR, SAP, T° and muscular relaxation were evaluated in baseline, 30 minutes after epidural; after skin incision, ovarian pedicles and uterine cervix ligation; end of laparohraphy; and end of surgery. They received fentanyl if SAP, HR or f, rise in 20% of baseline. At the end of OH, a multidimensional pain scale for cats was used during 12 hours, and rescued with morphine 0,2mg kg-1, when the scale score was ≥8 points. There were no differences in ETCO2, RR, T°C and muscular relaxation. SAP increased in both groups during the ovarian pedicle and cervix clamping. In 100% of the animals in GR and 87.5% of the GRM, it was necessary fentanyl during surgery. In 100% of GR animals was required analgesic rescue with morphine at 2 and 4 hours of postoperative evaluation, compared with 50% and 37,5% in GRM, where after the analgesic rescue, in the next hours, the sum of points was similar between groups. It was concluded that epidural administration of morphine and ropivacaine in cats submitted to OH, reduces post operatory analgesic requirements to 56,2% during the first four hours, and promote adequate analgesia for 12 hours in cats submitted to OH, when compared to ropivacaine alone.

RESUMEN

Introduction: Sedation and analgesia are essential in chemical restraint in pigs for various procedures. Analgesia allows theanimal to be free of the deleterious effects of pain, which are related to stress and weight loss. In this sense, the aim of this studywas evaluate two sedation protocols in pigs undergoing elective orchiectomy.Materials, Methods and Results: There were used 22 pigs with three months old, with an average weight of 19.05 ± 2.46 kg.The food was withheld for 12 h and water for 6 h. After fasting period, they were mask-induced with isofl urane, for surgicalpreparation and than they were recovered from anesthesia. After 30 min, the animals were allocated in two groups: ketamine/midazolam /Tramadol (CMT, n = 11) who received 5 mg kg-1 of ketamine, 1 mg kg,-1 of midazolam and 4 mg kg-1 of tramadol,and azaperone/tramadol (AT, n = 11) which received 6 mg kg-1 of azaperone and 4 mg kg-1 of tramadol, both treatments administered intramuscularly. The parameters evaluated were: heart rate (HR) through the stethoscope, respiratory frequency (f) by themovement of the rib cage, systolic blood pressure (SBP), mean blood pressure (MBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) trougha catheter in femoral artery, rectal temperature (RT) with a digital thermometer, arterial blood gas analysis, with an blood gasanalyzer, and blood count and biochemical profi le. The moments of evaluation were: baseline, and 10, 20, 30 and 40 min aftertreatments, corresponding to M0, M1, M2, M3 and M4, respectively. Score of sedation, muscle relaxation, response to stimuli,time to sternal recumbency, time to deambulation, time to full recovery and quality of recovery were also evaluated. The meansbetween groups in the same time were analyzed by Student’s t test and the means between times, in the same group by analysisof variance followed by Student Newmann Keuls test (P  0.05). Non parametrical data were analyzed with Mann Whitney rank...

RESUMEN

Visando avaliar os efeitos cardiovasculares e analgésicos de dois protocolos epidurais em felinos submetidos à OSH, 16 gatas mestiças, adultas, que, após indução à anestesia geral, receberam anestesia epidural (L7 - S1) com 0,26mL kg-1 de ropivacaína 0,75%, isolada (GR) ou associada a 0,1mg kg-1 morfina (GRM). A ETCO2, f, FC, PAS, T°R e relaxamento muscular foram avaliados no momento basal, 30 minutos após epidural, após incisão de pele, ligadura dos pedículos ovarianos e cérvix, final da celiorrafia e cirurgia, sendo administrado fentanil, caso ocorresse aumento de 20% na PAS, FC ou f em relação ao momento basal. Ao final do procedimento, foram avaliados, com auxílio de uma escala multidimensional de dor aguda em felinos, durante 12 horas, e, quando a pontuação fosse 8, era realizado resgate analgésico com morfina 0,2mg kg-1. Não ocorreram diferenças entre ETCO2, f, T°C e relaxamento muscular. A PAS aumentou em ambos os grupos durante o pinçamento dos pedículos ovarianos e cérvix, quando 100% dos animais do GR e 87,5% do GRM necessitaram fentanil transoperatório. Em 100% dos animais do GR, houve necessidade de morfina pós-operatória às 2 e 4 horas de avaliação, comparados com 50% e 37,5% no GRM. Nos momentos seguintes aos resgates, o somatório de pontos foi semelhante entre grupos. Conclui-se que a administração epidural de ropivacaína associada à morfina em gatas submetidas à ovariosalpingohisterectomia reduz o requerimento analgésico pós-operatório em até 56,2%, durante as primeiras 4 horas, e promove analgesia adequada durante 12 horas, quando comparado à ropivacaína isolada.(AU)

Seeking to evaluate the cardiovascular and analgesic effects of two epidural protocols in cats undergoing OH, 16 female adult mixed-breed cats were induced to general anesthesia, and then epidural was achieved with 0,26mL kg-1 of isolated ropivacaine (GR) (0,75%) or associated with 0,1mg kg-1 morphine (GRM). ETCO2, RR, HR, SAP, T° and muscular relaxation were evaluated in baseline, 30 minutes after epidural; after skin incision, ovarian pedicles and uterine cervix ligation; end of laparohraphy; and end of surgery. They received fentanyl if SAP, HR or f, rise in 20% of baseline. At the end of OH, a multidimensional pain scale for cats was used during 12 hours, and rescued with morphine 0,2mg kg-1, when the scale score was 8 points. There were no differences in ETCO2, RR, T°C and muscular relaxation. SAP increased in both groups during the ovarian pedicle and cervix clamping. In 100% of the animals in GR and 87.5% of the GRM, it was necessary fentanyl during surgery. In 100% of GR animals was required analgesic rescue with morphine at 2 and 4 hours of postoperative evaluation, compared with 50% and 37,5% in GRM, where after the analgesic rescue, in the next hours, the sum of points was similar between groups. It was concluded that epidural administration of morphine and ropivacaine in cats submitted to OH, reduces post operatory analgesic requirements to 56,2% during the first four hours, and promote adequate analgesia for 12 hours in cats submitted to OH, when compared to ropivacaine alone.(AU)
