[PMID: 35123874 DOI: 10.1016/j.vaa.2021.08.048] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/09/2021] [Revised: 06/14/2021] [Accepted: 08/06/2021] [Indexed: 01/25/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare a propofol continuous rate infusion (CRI) with a target-controlled infusion (TCI) in dogs. STUDY DESIGN Randomized prospective double-blinded clinical study. ANIMALS A total of 38 healthy client-owned dogs. METHODS Dogs premedicated intramuscularly with acepromazine (0.03 mg kg-1) and an opioid (pethidine 3 mg kg-1, morphine 0.2 mg kg-1 or methadone 0.2 mg kg-1) were allocated to P-CRI group (propofol 4 mg kg-1 intravenously followed by CRI at 0.2 mg kg-1 minute-1), or P-TCI group [propofol predicted plasma concentration (Cp) of 3.5 μg mL-1 for induction and maintenance of anaesthesia via TCI]. Plane of anaesthesia, heart rate, respiratory rate, invasive blood pressure, oxygen haemoglobin saturation, end-tidal carbon dioxide and body temperature were monitored by an anaesthetist blinded to the group. Numerical data were analysed by unpaired t test or Mann-Whitney U test, one-way analysis of variance and Dunnett's post hoc test. Categorical data were analysed with Fisher's exact test. Significance was set for p < 0.005. RESULTS Overall, propofol induced a significant incidence of relative hypotension (mean arterial pressure 20% below baseline, 45%), apnoea (71%) and haemoglobin desaturation (65%) at induction of anaesthesia, with a higher incidence of hypotension and apnoea in the P-CRI than P-TCI group (68% versus 21%, p = 0.008; 84% versus 58%, p = 0.0151, respectively). Propofol Cp was significantly higher at intubation in the P-CRI than P-TCI group (4.83 versus 3.5 μg mL-1, p < 0.0001), but decreased during infusion, while Cp remained steady in the P-TCI group. Total propofol administered was similar between groups. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE Both techniques provided a smooth induction of anaesthesia but caused a high incidence of side effects. Titration of anaesthesia with TCI caused fewer fluctuations in Cp and lower risk of hypotension compared with CRI.

Heart rate, arterial pressure and propofol-sparing effects of guaifenesin in dogs. Vet Anaesth Analg 2023; 50:50-56. [PMID: 36344374 DOI: 10.1016/j.vaa.2022.10.001] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/07/2022] [Revised: 10/05/2022] [Accepted: 10/06/2022] [Indexed: 11/06/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the heart rate (HR) and systemic arterial pressure (sAP) effects, and propofol induction dose requirements in healthy dogs administered propofol with or without guaifenesin for the induction of anesthesia. STUDY DESIGN Prospective blinded crossover experimental study. ANIMALS A total of 10 healthy adult female Beagle dogs. METHODS Dogs were premedicated with intravenous (IV) butorphanol (0.4 mg kg-1) and administered guaifenesin 5% at 50 mg kg-1 (treatment G50), 100 mg kg-1 (treatment G100) or saline (treatment saline) IV prior to anesthetic induction with propofol. HR, invasive sAP and respiratory rate (fR) were recorded after butorphanol administration, after guaifenesin administration and after propofol and endotracheal intubation. Propofol doses for intubation were recorded. Repeated measures analysis of variance (anova) was used to determine differences in propofol dose requirements among treatments, and differences in cardiopulmonary values over time and among treatments with p < 0.05 considered statistically significant. RESULTS Propofol doses (mean ± standard deviation) for treatments saline, G50 and G100 were 3.3 ± 1.0, 2.7 ± 0.7 and 2.1 ± 0.8 mg kg-1, respectively. Propofol administered was significantly lower in treatment G100 than in treatment saline (p = 0.04). In treatments G50 and G100, HR increased following induction of anesthesia and intubation compared with baseline measurements. HR was higher in treatment G100 than in treatments G50 and saline following induction of anesthesia. In all treatments, sAP decreased following intubation compared with baseline values. There were no significant differences in sAP among treatments. fR was lower following intubation than baseline and post co-induction values and did not differ significantly among treatments. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE When administered as a co-induction agent in dogs, guaifenesin reduced propofol requirements for tracheal intubation. HR increased and sAP and fR decreased, but mean values remained clinically acceptable.

Top Companion Anim Med 2021; 45:100553. [PMID: 34175451 DOI: 10.1016/j.tcam.2021.100553] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/17/2020] [Revised: 06/13/2021] [Accepted: 06/22/2021] [Indexed: 10/21/2022]
Abstract
The purpose of this study was to assess the effects of midazolam combined with morphine or butorphanol on echocardiographic variables of healthy dogs. Twenty-four dogs of various breeds aged 34.33 ± 23.41 months and weighing 8.1 ± 4.7 kg were enrolled in the study. Subjects were randomly allocated in one of two experimental groups of sedation with intramuscular midazolam (0.3 mg/kg) combined with butorphanol (0.2 mg/kg) (GB, n = 12) or morphine (0.3 mg/kg) (GM, n = 12). Transthoracic echocardiographic examinations comprised B-Mode, M-Mode, spectral Doppler and pulsed tissue Doppler assessment. Data were recorded before sedation (TB) and 20 minutes following intramuscular administration of either sedation protocol (TS). Data were analyzed using repeated measures ANOVA followed by Tukey's posthoc test. Shortening fraction, ejection fraction, left ventricular diameter and volume did not differ among groups and time points. The A and E' waves were decreased in GM at TS compared to TB. Isovolumic relaxation time, Ae/Ao ratio, aortic and pulmonary flows and S' wave did not differ among time points and groups. These sedation protocols did not cause clinically relevant changes in echocardiographic variables, therefore can be used for sedation of uncooperative dogs during echocardiographic evaluation.

Abstract
The porcine ischemia-reperfusion model is one of the most commonly used for cardiology research and for testing interventions for myocardial regeneration. In creating ischemic reperfusion injury, the anesthetic protocol is important for assuring hemodynamic stability of the animal during the induction of the experimental lesion and may affect its postoperative survival. This paper reviews the many drugs and anesthetic protocols used in recent studies involving porcine models of ischemiareperfusion injury. The paper also summarizes the most important characteristics of some commonly used anesthetic drugs. Literature was selected for inclusion in this review if the authors described the anesthetic protocol used and also reported the mortality rate attributed to the creation of the model. This information is an important consideration because the anesthetic protocol can influence hemodynamic stability during the experimental induction of an acute myocardial infarction, thereby impacting the survival rate and affecting the number of animals needed for each study.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effects of lidocaine as a coinduction agent with propofol on cardiopulmonary variables and administered propofol doses in healthy dogs premedicated with hydromorphone hydrochloride and acepromazine maleate and anesthetized with isoflurane. ANIMALS 40 client-owned dogs (American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status classification I or II and age ≥ 6 months) scheduled to undergo anesthesia for elective procedures. PROCEDURES In a randomized, blinded, controlled clinical trial, dogs received 2% lidocaine hydrochloride solution (2.0 mg/kg [0.9 mg/lb], IV; n = 20) or buffered crystalloid solution (0.1 mL/kg [0.05 mL/lb], IV; 20; control treatment) after premedication with acepromazine (0.005 mg/kg [0.002 mg/lb], IM) and hydromorphone (0.1 mg/kg, IM). Anesthesia was induced with propofol (1 mg/kg [0.45 mg/lb], IV, with additional doses administered as needed) and maintained with isoflurane. Sedation was assessed, and anesthetic and cardiopulmonary variables were measured at various points; values were compared between treatment groups. RESULTS Propofol doses, total sedation scores, and anesthetic and most cardiopulmonary measurements did not differ significantly between treatment groups over the monitoring period; only oxygen saturation as measured by pulse oximetry differed significantly (lower in the lidocaine group). Mean ± SD propofol dose required for endotracheal intubation was 1.30 ± 0.68 mg/kg (0.59 ± 0.31 mg/lb) and 1.41 ± 0.40 mg/kg (0.64 ± 0.18 mg/lb) for the lidocaine and control groups, respectively. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE No propofol-sparing effect was observed with administration of lidocaine as a coinduction agent for the premedicated dogs of this study. Mean propofol doses required for endotracheal intubation were considerably lower than currently recommended doses for premedicated dogs. (J Am Vet Med Assoc 2020;256:93-101).

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare the effects of intravenous (IV) lidocaine and fentanyl on the cough reflex and autonomic response during endotracheal intubation in dogs. STUDY DESIGN Randomized, blinded, superiority clinical trial. ANIMALS A total of 46 client-owned dogs undergoing magnetic resonance imaging. METHODS After intramuscular methadone (0.2 mg kg-1), dogs were randomized to be administered either IV lidocaine (2 mg kg-1; group L) or fentanyl (7 μg kg-1; group F). After 5 minutes, alfaxalone was administered until endotracheal intubation was possible (1 mg kg-1 IV over 40 seconds followed by 0.4 mg kg-1 increments to effect). Total dose of alfaxalone was recorded and cough reflex at endotracheal intubation was scored. Heart rate (HR) was continuously recorded, Doppler systolic arterial blood pressure (SAP) was measured every 20 seconds. Vasovagal tonus index (VVTI) and changes (Δ) in HR, SAP and VVTI between pre-intubation and intubation were calculated. Groups were compared using univariate and multivariate analysis. Statistical significance was set as p < 0.05. RESULTS Group F included 22 dogs and group L 24 dogs. The mean (± standard deviation) alfaxalone dose was 1.1 (± 0.2) and 1.35 (± 0.3) mg kg-1 in groups F and L, respectively (p = 0.0008). At intubation, cough was more likely in group L (odds ratio = 11.3; 95% confidence intervals, 2.1 - 94.2; p = 0.01) and HR increased in 87.5% and 54.5% of groups L and F, respectively (p = 0.02). The median (range) ΔHR between pre-intubation and intubation was higher (13.1%; - 4.3 to + 55.1) in group L (p = 0.0021). Between groups, SAP and VVTI were similar. CONCLUSION AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE At the stated doses, whilst reducing the alfaxalone dose, fentanyl is superior to lidocaine in suppressing the cough reflex and blunting the increase in HR at endotracheal intubation in dogs premedicated with methadone.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine the dose and cardiopulmonary effects of propofol alone or with midazolam for induction of anesthesia in American Society of Anesthesiologists status ≥III dogs requiring emergency abdominal surgery. STUDY DESIGN Prospective, randomized, blinded, clinical trial. ANIMALS A total of 19 client-owned dogs. METHODS Dogs were sedated with fentanyl (2 μg kg-1) intravenously (IV) for instrumentation for measurement of heart rate, arterial blood pressure, cardiac index, systemic vascular resistance index, arterial blood gases, respiratory rate and rectal temperature. After additional IV fentanyl (3 μg kg-1), the quality of sedation was scored and cardiopulmonary variables recorded. Induction of anesthesia was with IV propofol (1 mg kg-1) and saline (0.06 mL kg-1; group PS; nine dogs) or midazolam (0.3 mg kg-1; group PM; 10 dogs), with additional propofol (0.25 mg kg-1) IV every 6 seconds until endotracheal intubation. Induction/intubation quality was scored, and anesthesia was maintained with isoflurane. Variables were recorded for 5 minutes with the dog in lateral recumbency, breathing spontaneously, and then in dorsal recumbency with mechanical ventilation for the next 15 minutes. A general linear mixed model was used with post hoc analysis for multiple comparisons between groups (p < 0.05). RESULTS There were no differences in group demographics, temperature and cardiopulmonary variables between groups or within groups before or after induction. The propofol doses for induction of anesthesia were significantly different between groups, 1.9 ± 0.5 and 1.1 ± 0.5 mg kg-1 for groups PS and PM, respectively, and the induction/intubation score was significantly better for group PM. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE Midazolam co-induction reduced the propofol induction dose and improved the quality of induction in critically ill dogs without an improvement in cardiopulmonary variables, when compared with a higher dose of propofol alone.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine the alfaxalone dose reduction during total intravenous anaesthesia (TIVA) when combined with ketamine or midazolam constant rate infusions and to assess recovery quality in healthy dogs. STUDY DESIGN Prospective, blinded clinical study. ANIMALS A group of 33 healthy, client-owned dogs subjected to dental procedures. METHODS After premedication with intramuscular acepromazine 0.05 mg kg-1 and methadone 0.3 mg kg-1, anaesthetic induction started with intravenous alfaxalone 0.5 mg kg-1 followed by either lactated Ringer's solution (0.04 mL kg-1, group A), ketamine (2 mg kg-1, group AK) or midazolam (0.2 mg kg-1, group AM) and completed with alfaxalone until endotracheal intubation was achieved. Anaesthesia was maintained with alfaxalone (6 mg kg-1 hour-1), adjusted (±20%) every 5 minutes to maintain a suitable level of anaesthesia. Ketamine (0.6 mg kg-1 hour-1) or midazolam (0.4 mg kg-1 hour-1) were employed for anaesthetic maintenance in groups AK and AM, respectively. Physiological variables were monitored during anaesthesia. Times from alfaxalone discontinuation to extubation, sternal recumbency and standing position were calculated. Recovery quality and incidence of adverse events were recorded. Groups were compared using parametric analysis of variance and nonparametric (Kruskal-Wallis, Chi-square, Fisher's exact) tests as appropriate, p < 0.05. RESULTS Midazolam significantly reduced alfaxalone induction and maintenance doses (46%; p = 0.034 and 32%, p = 0.012, respectively), whereas ketamine only reduced the alfaxalone induction dose (30%; p = 0.010). Recovery quality was unacceptable in nine dogs in group A, three dogs in group AK and three dogs in group AM. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE Midazolam, but not ketamine, reduced the alfaxalone infusion rate, and both co-adjuvant drugs reduced the alfaxalone induction dose. Alfaxalone TIVA allowed anaesthetic maintenance for dental procedures in dogs, but the quality of anaesthetic recovery remained unacceptable irrespective of its combination with ketamine or midazolam.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate selected effects of midazolam or lidocaine administered prior to etomidate for co-induction of anesthesia in healthy dogs. STUDY DESIGN Prospective crossover experimental study. ANIMALS A group of 12 healthy adult female Beagle dogs. METHODS Dogs were premedicated with intravenous (IV) butorphanol (0.3 mg kg-1), and anesthesia was induced with etomidate following midazolam (0.3 mg kg-1), lidocaine (2 mg kg-1) or physiologic saline (1 mL) IV. Heart rate (HR), arterial blood pressure, respiratory rate (fR) and intraocular pressure (IOP) were recorded following butorphanol, after co-induction administration, after etomidate administration and immediately following intubation. Baseline IOP values were also obtained prior to sedation. Etomidate dose requirements and the presence of myoclonus, as well as coughing or gagging during intubation were recorded. Serum cortisol concentrations were measured prior to premedication and 6 hours following etomidate administration. RESULTS Blood pressure, fR and IOP were similar among treatments. Blood pressure decreased in all treatments following etomidate administration and generally returned to sedated values following intubation. HR increased following intubation with midazolam and lidocaine but remained stable in the saline treatment. The dose of etomidate (median, interquartile range, range) required for intubation was lower following midazolam (2.2, 2.1-2.6, 1.7-4.1 mg kg-1) compared with lidocaine (2.7, 2.4-3.6, 2.2-5.1 mg kg-1, p = 0.012) or saline (3.0, 2.8-3.8, 1.9-5.1 mg kg-1, p = 0.015). Coughing or gagging was less frequent with midazolam compared with saline. Myoclonus was not observed. Changes in serum cortisol concentrations were not different among treatments. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE Midazolam administration reduced etomidate dose requirements and improved intubation conditions compared with lidocaine or saline treatments. Neither co-induction agent caused clinically relevant differences in measured cardiopulmonary function, IOP or cortisol concentrations compared with saline in healthy dogs. Apnea was noted in all treatments following the induction of anesthesia and preoxygenation is recommended.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The effects of sedative and anesthetic agents on sympathetic nerve activity (SNA) are poorly understood. OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of commonly used sedative and anesthetic agents on SNA in ambulatory dogs and humans. METHODS We implanted radiotransmitters in 6 dogs to record stellate ganglion nerve activity (SGNA), subcutaneous nerve activity (ScNA), and blood pressure (BP). After recovery, we injected dexmedetomidine (3 μg/kg), morphine (0.1 mg/kg), hydromorphone (0.05 mg/kg), and midazolam (0.1 mg/kg) on different days. We also studied 12 human patients (10 male; age 68.0 ± 9.1 years old) undergoing cardioversion for atrial fibrillation with propofol (0.77 ± 0.18 mg/kg) or methohexital (0.65 mg/kg) anesthesia. Skin sympathetic nerve activity (SKNA) and electrocardiogram were recorded during the study. RESULTS SGNA and ScNA were significantly suppressed immediately after administration of dexmedetomidine (P = .000 and P = .000, respectively), morphine (P = .011 and P = .014, respectively), and hydromorphone (P = .000 and P = .012, respectively), along with decreased BP and heart rate (HR) (P <.001 for each). Midazolam had no significant effect on SGNA and ScNA (P = .248 and P = .149, respectively) but increased HR (P = .015) and decreased BP (P = .004) in ambulatory dogs. In patients undergoing cardioversion, bolus propofol administration significantly suppressed SKNA (from 1.11 ± 0.25 μV to 0.77 ± 0.15 μV; P = .001), and the effects lasted for at least 10 minutes after the final cardioversion shock. Methohexital decreased chest SKNA from 1.59 ± 0.45 μV to 1.22 ± 0.58 μV (P = .000) and arm SKNA from 0.76 ± 0.43 μV to 0.55 ± 0.07 μV (P = .001). The effects lasted for at least 10 minutes after the cardioversion shock. CONCLUSION Propofol, methohexital, dexmedetomidine, morphine, and hydromorphone suppressed, but midazolam had no significant effects on, SNA.
