Recovery remains the most dangerous phase of general anaesthesia in horses. The objective of this publication was to perform a structured literature review including levels of evidence (LoE) of each study with the keywords "recovery anaesthesia horse", entered at once, in the search browsers PubMed and Web of Science. The two authors independently evaluated each candidate article. A final list with 444 articles was obtained on 5 April 2021, classified as: 41 "narrative reviews/expert opinions", 16 "retrospective outcome studies", 5 "surveys", 59 "premedication/sedation and induction drugs", 27 "maintenance with inhalant agents", 55 "maintenance with total intravenous anaesthesia (TIVA)", 3 "TIVA versus inhalants", 56 "maintenance with partial intravenous anaesthesia (PIVA)", 27 "other drugs used during maintenance", 18 "drugs before/during recovery", 18 "recovery systems", 21 "respiratory system in recovery", 41 "other factors", 51 "case series/reports" and 6 "systems to score recoveries". Of them, 167 were LoE 1, 36 LoE 2, 33 LoE 3, 110 LoE 4, 90 LoE 5 and 8 could not be classified based on the available abstract. This review can be used as an up-to-date compilation of the literature about recovery after general anaesthesia in adult horses that tried to minimise the bias inherent to narrative reviews.
