The incidence of hypoxemia in dogs recovering from general anesthesia detected with pulse-oximetry and related risk factors. Vet J 2024; 305:106135. [PMID: 38750813 DOI: 10.1016/j.tvjl.2024.106135] [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: 09/18/2023] [Revised: 04/12/2024] [Accepted: 05/12/2024] [Indexed: 05/25/2024]
Abstract
The postoperative period is critical for the development of complications, including hypoxemia. To detect hypoxemia early and provide appropriate care, continuous monitoring of saturation is necessary: pulse oximetry is an easily accessible and simple method for this purpose. However, a SpO2 cut-off value to detect hypoxemia in dogs recovering from general anesthesia is lacking in the veterinary literature. The objectives of this clinical study are to validate the room air SpO2 test (SpAT), to identify a cut-off value to discriminate hypoxemia (Phase 1), and to apply the SpAT to study the incidence of transient postoperative hypoxemia (TPH) (Phase 2) in dogs with healthy lungs recovering from general anesthesia. Phase 1: 87 dogs recovering from general anesthesia with an arterial line were included. After extubation, SpAT was performed simultaneously with arterial blood sampling. A PaO2 < 80 mmHg was considered hypoxemia. Phase 2: 654 dogs were enrolled. They underwent general anesthesia with different ventilation settings for different procedures. After extubation, dogs were classified as hypoxemic if the SpO2 was lower than the cut-off obtained in phase 1. Phase 1 showed that the SpO2 cut-off is < 95% (sensitivity 100%, specificity 97.4%; area under the curve, AUC = 0.996; 95% Confidence Interval = 0.944-1; P<0.0001). In Phase 2, 169 dogs were hypoxemic. Body Condition Score (BCS) > 3/5, dorsal recumbency, FiO2 1, absence of Positive End-Expiratory Pressure (PEEP) had a significant odds ratio to induce TPH (5.8, 1.9, 3.7, 1.7, respectively). These results showed that SpO2 < 95% indicates PaO2 < 80 mmHg in dogs and TPH occurs in up to 28% of cases. Identification of associated risks could be useful to prevent and to increase awareness for monitoring and treatment.

Minimum anesthetic concentration of isoflurane and sevoflurane and cardiorespiratory effects of varying inspired oxygen fractions in Magellanic penguins (Spheniscus magellanicus). Vet Res Commun 2024; 48:1621-1630. [PMID: 38433171 DOI: 10.1007/s11259-024-10336-w] [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: 12/14/2023] [Accepted: 02/19/2024] [Indexed: 03/05/2024]
Abstract
The aim of this study was to determine the minimum anesthetic concentration of isoflurane (MACISO) and sevoflurane (MACSEVO) and evaluate the cardiorespiratory changes induced by varying fractions of inspired oxygen (FiO2) in Magellanic penguins (Spheniscus magellanicus). Twenty adult penguins (3.53 ± 0.44 kg) of undetermined sex were used. Both MACISO (n = 9) and MACSEVO (n = 13) were established using an up-and-down design. Next, twelve mechanically ventilated penguins were maintained at 1 MACISO or 1 MACSEVO (n = 6 per group) with the FiO2 initially set at 1.0. Three FiO2 values (0.6, 0.4 and 0.2) were then held constant during anesthesia for 20 minutes each. Arterial blood samples were collected for gas analysis after the 20-minute period for each FiO2. Mean ± SD MACISO was 1.93 ± 0.10% and MACSEVO was 3.53 ± 0.13%. Other than heart rate at 0.6 FiO2 (86 ± 11 beats/minute in MACISO and 132 ± 37 beats/minute in MACSEVO; p = 0.041), no significant cardiorespiratory differences were detected between groups. In both groups, decreasing the FiO2 produced increased pH values and reduced partial pressures of carbon dioxide and bicarbonate. Partial pressures of oxygen (PaO2) gradually lowered from 1.0 FiO2 through 0.2 FiO2, though hypoxemia (PaO2 < 80 mmHg) occurred only with the latter FiO2. The MACISO and the MACSEVO for the Magellanic penguin fell within the upper range of reported avian MAC estimates. To prevent hypoxemia in healthy, mechanically ventilated, either isoflurane- or sevoflurane-anesthetized Magellanic penguins, a minimum FiO2 of 0.4 should be used.

Cardiopulmonary effects of apneustic anesthesia ventilation in anesthetized pigs: a new mode of ventilation for anesthetized veterinary species. Front Vet Sci 2024; 11:1378617. [PMID: 38855412 PMCID: PMC11157129 DOI: 10.3389/fvets.2024.1378617] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/29/2024] [Accepted: 05/13/2024] [Indexed: 06/11/2024] Open
Abstract
Objective To compare the cardiopulmonary effects of apneustic anesthesia ventilation (AAV) and conventional mechanical ventilation (CMV) in anesthetized pigs and to describe a new mode of ventilation for anesthetized veterinary species. Study design Randomized, crossover design without washout. Animals Twelve healthy, female white Landrace pigs. Methods Following ketamine-midazolam premedication and anesthetic induction with propofol, the trachea was intubated, and each pig was positioned in dorsal recumbency. Anesthesia was maintained with propofol and sufentanil infusions. Pigs were instrumented and their lungs were sequentially ventilated with each mode, in random order, for 1 h according to predefined criteria [fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO2) = 0.21, 10 mL kg-1 tidal volume (VT), and arterial carbon dioxide tension (PaCO2) within 40-45 mmHg]. Cardiopulmonary data were collected at baseline, 30 and 60 min. In 8 pigs, thoracic computed tomography (CT) was performed following the 60 min time point for each mode of ventilation and images were analyzed to quantify lung aeration. The effects of ventilation mode, time, and order were analyzed using repeated measures ANOVA. Paired t-tests were used to compare lung aeration between modes. Significance was defined as p < 0.05. Results Data from 12 pigs were analyzed. A significant effect of mode was found for heart rate, mean arterial pressure (MAP), pulmonary artery occlusion pressure, cardiac index (CI), stroke volume index, systemic vascular resistance, pulmonary vascular resistance, oxygen delivery index (DO2I), oxygen extraction ratio (O2ER), VT, arterial oxygen tension, arterial hemoglobin saturation, PaCO2, end-tidal carbon dioxide tension, alveolar dead space (VDalv/VTalv), venous admixture (Q . s / Q . t ), mean airway pressure, and dynamic compliance index (CRSI). Order effects were also observed for some cardiovascular and respiratory variables. For the eight pigs that underwent thoracic CT, AAV resulted in significantly larger proportions of normally and hyperaerated lung while CMV resulted in larger proportions of hypoaerated and atelectatic lung. Conclusions In dorsally recumbent anesthetized pigs, ventilated with FiO2 = 0.21, both modes of ventilation supported adequate oxygenation while AAV resulted in higher CRSI, and lower VDalv/VTalv andQ . s / Q . t , compared with CMV. AAV was also associated with lower MAP, CI, and DO2I and higher O2ER compared with CMV. Further investigation of AAV in anesthetized animals is warranted.

Tidal volume selection in volume-controlled ventilation guided by driving pressure versus actual body weight in healthy anesthetized and mechanically ventilated dogs: A randomized crossover trial. Vet Anaesth Analg 2024:S1467-2987(24)00083-7. [PMID: 38910061 DOI: 10.1016/j.vaa.2024.05.006] [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: 10/23/2023] [Revised: 05/13/2024] [Accepted: 05/18/2024] [Indexed: 06/25/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare static compliance of the respiratory system (CstRS) and the ratio of partial pressure of end-tidal to arterial carbon dioxide (Pe'CO2/PaCO2), in healthy dogs using two approaches for tidal volume (VT) selection during volume-controlled ventilation: body mass based and driving pressure (ΔPaw) guided. STUDY DESIGN Randomized, nonblinded, crossover, clinical trial. ANIMALS A total of 19 client-owned dogs anesthetized for castration and ovariohysterectomy. METHODS After a stable 10 minute baseline, each dog was mechanically ventilated with a VT selection strategy, randomized to a constant VT of 15 mL kg-1 of actual body mass (VTBW) or ΔPaw-guided VT (VTΔP) of 7-8 cmH2O. Both strategies used an inspiratory time of 1 second, 20% end-inspiratory pause, 4 cmH2O positive end-expiratory pressure and fraction of inspired oxygen of 0.4. Respiratory frequency was adjusted to maintain Pe'CO2 between 35 and 40 mmHg. Respiratory mechanics, arterial blood gases and Pe'CO2/PaCO2 were assessed. Continuous variables are presented as mean ± SD or median (interquartile range; quartiles 1-3), depending on distribution, and compared with Wilcoxon signed-rank tests. RESULTS The VT was significantly higher in dogs ventilated with VTΔP than with VTBW strategy (17.20 ± 4.04 versus 15.03 ± 0.60 mL kg-1, p = 0.036). CstRS was significantly higher with VTΔP than with VTBW strategy [2.47 (1.86-2.86) versus 2.25 (1.79-2.58) mL cmH2O-1 kg-1, p = 0.011]. There were no differences in Pe'CO2/PaCO2 between VTΔP and VTBW strategies (0.94 ± 0.06 versus 0.92 ± 0.06, p = 0.094). No discernible difference in ΔPaw was noted between the strategies. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE While no apparent difference was observed in the Pe'CO2/PaCO2 between the VT selection strategies employed, CstRS significantly increased during the VTΔP approach. A future trial should explore if VTΔP improves perioperative gas exchange and prevents lung damage.

Effects of a stepwise alveolar recruitment maneuver on lung volume distribution in dogs assessed by computed tomography. Front Vet Sci 2024; 10:1232635. [PMID: 38292132 PMCID: PMC10825017 DOI: 10.3389/fvets.2023.1232635] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/31/2023] [Accepted: 12/19/2023] [Indexed: 02/01/2024] Open
Abstract
Background Pulmonary atelectasis is a commonly occurs during anesthesia. In these cases, mechanical ventilation (MV) associated with alveolar recruitment maneuvers (ARMs) and positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) is indicated to reverse the condition, ensure adequate gas exchange and improve oxygenation. ARMs can trigger volutrauma, barotrauma, and atelectrauma. Therefore, computed tomography (CT) is the gold-standard method for monitoring lung aeration after ARM. Objective To evaluate lung volume distribution after stepwise ARMs using computed tomography (CT). Methods Twelve dogs weighing 24.0 ± 6.0 kg, aged 3 ± 1 years, of both sexes and different breeds, underwent orchiectomy or ovariohysterectomy. The animals were anesthetized and ventilated in volume-controlled mode. ARMs were then initiated by positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) titration (5, 10, 15, and 20 cmH2O). CT scans, cardiovascular parameters, and ventilatory mechanics were evaluated at all time points. Data were assessed for normality using the Shapiro-Wilk test and a two-way analysis of variance, followed by a post-hoc Bonferroni test to identify differences between time points. Statistical significance was attributed to a value of p of <0.05. Results CT demonstrated that the ARMs increased ventilation throughout the lung, including the dependent regions, with volumes that increased and decreased proportionally with PEEP titration. When they reached PEEP 10 and 5 cmH2O descending (d), they remained significantly higher than those in PEEP 0 cmH2O (baseline). Static compliance improved about 40% at PEEP 10d and PEEP 5d compared to baseline. There was an increase in heart rate (HR) from PEEP 15 increasing (i) (74.5%) to PEEP 10d (54.8%) compared to baseline. Mean arterial blood pressure (MABP) decreased approximately 9% from PEEP 15i to PEEP 15d compared to baseline. Conclusion Lung attenuation and regional and global volumes assessed by CT showed that maximum pulmonary aeration distribution followed by PEEP titration occurred at PEEP 20 cmH2O, maintaining the lungs normoaerated and without hyperaeration.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The oxygen reserve index (ORi) is a real-time, continuous index measured with multi-wavelength pulse CO-oximetry technology. It estimates mild hyperoxemia in humans, which is defined as a partial pressure of oxygen (PaO2) level between 100 and 200 mmHg. The objectives of this study were to assess the correlation between ORi and PaO2, as well as to determine its ability in detecting mild hyperoxemia in dogs. METHODS This prospective observational study enrolled 37 anaesthetised and mechanically ventilated dogs undergoing elective procedures. Simultaneous measurements of ORi and PaO2 were collected, using a multi-wavelength pulse CO-oximeter with a probe placed on the dog's tongue, and a blood gas analyser, respectively. A mixed-effects model was used to calculate the correlation (r2) between simultaneous measurements of ORi and PaO2. The trending ability of ORi to identify dependable and proportional changes of PaO2 was determined. The diagnostic performances of ORi to detect PaO2 ≥ 150 mmHg and ≥ 190 mmHg were estimated using the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUROC). The effects of perfusion index (PI), haemoglobin (Hb), arterial blood pH and partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO2) on AUROC for PaO2 ≥ 150 mmHg were evaluated. RESULTS A total of 101 paired measurements of ORi and PaO2 were collected. PaO2 values ranged from 74 to 258 mmHg. A strong positive correlation (r2 = 0.52, p < 0.001) was found between ORi and PaO2. The trending ability ORi was 90.7%, with 92% sensitivity and 89% specificity in detecting decreasing PaO2. An ORi value ≥ 0.53 and ≥ 0.76 indicated a PaO2 ≥ 150 and ≥ 190 mmHg, respectively, with ≥ 82% sensitivity, ≥ 77% specificity and AUROC ≥ 0.75. The AUROC of ORi was not affected by PI, Hb, pH and PaCO2. CONCLUSIONS In anaesthetised dogs, ORi may detect mild hyperoxaemia, although it does not replace blood gas analysis for measuring the arterial partial pressure of oxygen. ORi monitoring could be used to non-invasively assess oxygenation in dogs receiving supplemental oxygen, limiting excessive hyperoxia.

The optimal PEEP after alveolar recruitment maneuver assessed by electrical impedance tomography in healthy horses. Front Vet Sci 2022; 9:1024088. [PMID: 36570501 PMCID: PMC9780380 DOI: 10.3389/fvets.2022.1024088] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/21/2022] [Accepted: 11/09/2022] [Indexed: 12/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Electrical impedance tomography (EIT) has been an essential tool for assessing pulmonary ventilation in several situations, such as the alveolar recruitment maneuver (ARM) in PEEP titration to maintain the lungs open after atelectasis reversion. In the same way as in humans and dogs, in horses, this tool has been widely used to assess pulmonary aeration undergoing anesthesia, mechanical ventilation, recruitment maneuver, standing horses, or specific procedures. Objectives The present study aimed to evaluate the distribution of regional ventilation during ARM based on lung monitoring assessment by EIT, with a focus on better recruitment associated with less or no overdistention. Methods Fourteen horses of 306 ± 21 kg undergoing isoflurane anesthesia in dorsal recumbency were used. The animals were mechanically ventilated with a tidal volume of 14 ml kg-1 and a respiratory rate of 7-9. An alveolar recruitment maneuver was instituted, increasing the PEEP by five cmH2O every 5 min until 32 cmH2O and decreasing it by five cmH2O every 5 min to 7 cmH2O. At each step of PEEP, arterial blood samples were collected for blood gas analysis, EIT images, hemodynamic, and respiratory mechanics. Results Associated with the CoV-DV increase, there was a significant decrease in the DSS during the ARM and a significant increase in the NSS when PEEP was applied above 12 cmH2O compared to baseline. The ComplROI showed a significant increase in the dependent area and a significant decrease in the non-dependent area during ARM, and both were compared to their baseline values. The driving pressure decreased significantly during the ARM, and Cst, PaO2, and PaO2/FiO2 ratio increased significantly. The VD/VT decreased significantly at DEPEEP17 and DEPEEP12. There was an HR increase at INPEEP27, INPEEP 32, and DEPEEP17 (p < 0.0001; p < 0.0001; and p < 0.05, respectively), those values being above the normal reference range for the species. The SAP, MAP, DAP, CI, and DO2I significantly decreased INPEEP32 (p < 0.05). Conclusion The ARM by PEEP titration applied in the present study showed better ventilation distribution associated with better aeration in the dependent lung areas, with minimal overdistention between PEEP 17 and 12 cmH2O decreasing step. Those changes were also followed by improvements in static and regional compliance associated with increased oxygenation and pulmonary ventilation. ARM promoted a transitory decrease in arterial blood pressure and depression in CI with a concomitant drop in oxygen delivery, which should be best investigated before its routine use in clinical cases.

Abstract
Background Computed tomography (CT) scanning of the lung is known to be a valuable tool when investigating lung pathology of the dog. During CT-scan the dog needs to be immobilized and general anesthesia has historically been considered as gold standard although being a more expensive and time-consuming alternative to sedation. Today, modern high speed multidetector CT-scanners offer new possibilities for sedation as an alternative. Both anesthesia and sedation can cause lung atelectasis, and this can be problematic when reading the CT-images since it potentially can masque or mimic lung pathology leading to misdiagnosis. The objective of this prospective analytic study was to investigate the prevalence of lung atelectasis and changes in lung attenuation over time in dogs that receive intravenous sedation and positioned in sternal recumbency. Results 20 dogs without known lung pathology underwent three consecutive CT-scans of the lung; the first scan was initiated as soon as the dog was sufficiently sedated, the second scan approximately 5 min after the first one and the last scan after the dog’s orthopaedic scan was completed. The dogs received intravenous sedation in a combination of dexmedetomidine and butorphanol and were kept positioned in a strict sternal recumbency during sedation and exam. Each lung lobe was individually examined in an axial plane and measurements of dorsal, ventral, and mean lung attenuation were made. Atelectasis or areas with poorly aerated lung tissue were not detected as all parts of the lobes were normally aerated at all three scans. A statistically significant increase in lung attenuation between the first and the second scan (P = 0.03) and between the first and the third scan (P = 0.0004) was seen in the ventral part of the lobes. Conclusions This study indicates that CT-examination of the lungs can be performed on sedated dogs that are kept in a sternal recumbency without development of atelectasis. It also suggests that there is an early correlation between time and increase in lung attenuation.

Abstract
The aim of the present study was to evaluate whether the application of two types of alveolar recruitment manoeuvres (ARMs) followed by a positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) improved lung mechanics and the degree of atelectasis caused by general anaesthesia. Twenty-one female Merino sheep were divided into three groups: sustained inflation ARM (ARMsust), stepwise ARM (AMRstep), and control (without ARM). Sheep received detomidine-morphine for premedication, propofol for induction, and isoflurane during general anaesthesia in a volume-controlled mode with 100% oxygen during the first 15 min of anaesthesia and 40% the rest of the study. The right jugular vein and metacarpal artery were catheterised for mixed venous and arterial blood sample collection, respectively. The quasistatic compliance (Cqst), oxygenation parameters, and shunt fraction (Qs/Qt) were monitored before ARM application (TpreARM), and at 10 (T10) and 60 min (T60) after ARM application. A pulmonary histopathological study was conducted on five animals from each group. A significant increase in Cqst was observed in both ARM groups at T10 compared to TpreARM (ARMsust: P = 0.001; ARMstep: P = 0.002), although only the ARMsust group showed significant differences compared to the control group. The ARMstep group presented a significant improvement in oxygenation parameters and Qs/Qt fraction (T10: 4.84 (3.26-16.48)%, P = 0.048; T60: 4.40 (4.31-14.16)%, P = 0.004) compared with TpreARM (21.48 (20.61-28.32)%). The ARMstep group had the highest percentage of alveolar area and the most homogeneous values. In conclusion, the application of a stepwise ARM followed by PEEP improved atelectasis caused by isoflurane anaesthesia in healthy sheep.

Computed Tomography Assessment of Tidal Lung Overinflation in Domestic Cats Undergoing Pressure-Controlled Mechanical Ventilation During General Anesthesia. Front Vet Sci 2022; 9:842528. [PMID: 35433898 PMCID: PMC9011143 DOI: 10.3389/fvets.2022.842528] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/23/2021] [Accepted: 03/04/2022] [Indexed: 11/22/2022] Open
Abstract
Objective This study aimed to evaluate lung overinflation at different airway inspiratory pressure levels using computed tomography in cats undergoing general anesthesia. Study Design Prospective laboratory study. Animals A group of 17 healthy male cats, aged 1.9–4.5 years and weighing 3.5 ± 0.5 kg. Methods Seventeen adult male cats were ventilated in pressure-controlled mode with airway pressure stepwise increased from 5 to 15 cmH2O in 2 cmH2O steps every 5 min and then stepwise decreased. The respiratory rate was set at 15 movements per min and end-expiratory pressure at zero (ZEEP). After 5 min in each inspiratory pressure step, a 4 s inspiratory pause was performed to obtain a thoracic juxta-diaphragmatic single slice helical CT image and to collect respiratory mechanics data and an arterial blood sample. Lung parenchyma aeration was defined as overinflated, normally-aerated, poorly-aerated, and non-aerated according to the CT attenuation number (−1,000 to −900 HU, −900 to −500 HU, −500 to −100 HU, and −100 to +100 HU, respectively). Result At 5 cmH2O airway pressure, tidal volume was 6.7± 2.2 ml kg−1, 2.1% (0.3–6.3%) of the pulmonary parenchyma was overinflated and 84.9% (77.6%−87.6%) was normally inflated. Increases in airway pressure were associated with progressive distention of the lung parenchyma. At 15 cmH2O airway pressure, tidal volume increased to 31.5± 9.9 ml kg−1 (p < 0.001), overinflated pulmonary parenchyma increased to 28.4% (21.2–30.6%) (p < 0.001), while normally inflated parenchyma decreased 57.9% (53.4–62.8%) (p < 0.001). Tidal volume and overinflated lung fraction returned to baseline when airway pressure was decreased. A progressive decrease was observed in arterial carbon dioxide partial pressure (PaCO2) and end-tidal carbon dioxide (ETCO2) when the airway pressures were increased above 9 cmH2O (p < 0.001). The increase in airway pressure promoted an elevation in pH (p < 0.001). Conclusions and Clinical Relevance Ventilation with 5 and 7 cmH2O of airway pressure prevents overinflation in healthy cats with highly compliant chest walls, despite presenting acidemia by respiratory acidosis. This fact can be controlled by increasing or decreasing respiratory rate and inspiratory time.

Distribution and Magnitude of Regional Volumetric Lung Strain and Its Modification by PEEP in Healthy Anesthetized and Mechanically Ventilated Dogs. Front Vet Sci 2022; 9:839406. [PMID: 35359684 PMCID: PMC8964072 DOI: 10.3389/fvets.2022.839406] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/19/2021] [Accepted: 01/27/2022] [Indexed: 11/24/2022] Open
Abstract
The present study describes the magnitude and spatial distribution of lung strain in healthy anesthetized, mechanically ventilated dogs with and without positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP). Total lung strain (LSTOTAL) has a dynamic (LSDYNAMIC) and a static (LSSTATIC) component. Due to lung heterogeneity, global lung strain may not accurately represent regional total tissue lung strain (TSTOTAL), which may also be described by a regional dynamic (TSDYNAMIC) and static (TSSTATIC) component. Six healthy anesthetized beagles (12.4 ± 1.4 kg body weight) were placed in dorsal recumbency and ventilated with a tidal volume of 15 ml/kg, respiratory rate of 15 bpm, and zero end-expiratory pressure (ZEEP). Respiratory system mechanics and full thoracic end-expiratory and end-inspiratory CT scan images were obtained at ZEEP. Thereafter, a PEEP of 5 cmH2O was set and respiratory system mechanics measurements and end-expiratory and end-inspiratory images were repeated. Computed lung volumes from CT scans were used to evaluate the global LSTOTAL, LSDYNAMIC, and LSSTATIC during PEEP. During ZEEP, LSSTATIC was assumed zero; therefore, LSTOTAL was the same as LSDYNAMIC. Image segmentation was applied to CT images to obtain maps of regional TSTOTAL, TSDYNAMIC, and TSSTATIC during PEEP, and TSDYNAMIC during ZEEP. Compliance increased (p = 0.013) and driving pressure decreased (p = 0.043) during PEEP. PEEP increased the end-expiratory lung volume (p < 0.001) and significantly reduced global LSDYNAMIC (33.4 ± 6.4% during ZEEP, 24.0 ± 4.6% during PEEP, p = 0.032). LSSTATIC by PEEP was larger than the reduction in LSDYNAMIC; therefore, LSTOTAL at PEEP was larger than LSDYNAMIC at ZEEP (p = 0.005). There was marked topographic heterogeneity of regional strains. PEEP induced a significant reduction in TSDYNAMIC in all lung regions (p < 0.05). Similar to global findings, PEEP-induced TSSTATIC was larger than the reduction in TSDYNAMIC; therefore, PEEP-induced TSTOTAL was larger than TSDYNAMIC at ZEEP. In conclusion, PEEP reduced both global and regional estimates of dynamic strain, but induced a large static strain. Given that lung injury has been mostly associated with tidal deformation, limiting dynamic strain may be an important clinical target in healthy and diseased lungs, but this requires further study.

Abstract
Background During protective mechanical ventilation, electrical impedance tomography (EIT) is used to monitor alveolar recruitment maneuvers as well as the distribution of regional ventilation. This technique can infer atelectasis and lung overdistention during mechanical ventilation in anesthetized patients or in the ICU. Changes in lung tissue stretching are evaluated by monitoring the electrical impedance of lung tissue with each respiratory cycle. Objective This study aimed to evaluate the distribution of regional ventilation during recruitment maneuvers based on the variables obtained in pulmonary electrical impedance tomography during protective mechanical ventilation, focusing on better lung recruitment associated with less or no overdistention. Methods Prospective clinical study using seven adult client–owned healthy dogs, weighing 25 ± 6 kg, undergoing elective ovariohysterectomy or orchiectomy. The animals were anesthetized and ventilated in volume-controlled mode (7 ml.kg−1) with stepwise PEEP increases from 0 to 20 cmH2O in steps of 5 cmH2O every 5 min and then a stepwise decrease. EIT, respiratory mechanics, oxygenation, and hemodynamic variables were recorded for each PEEP step. Results The results show that the regional compliance of the dependent lung significantly increased in the PEEP 10 cmH2O decrease step when compared with baseline (p < 0.027), and for the nondependent lung, there was a decrease in compliance at PEEP 20 cmH2O (p = 0.039) compared with baseline. A higher level of PEEP was associated with a significant increase in silent space of the nondependent regions from the PEEP 10 cmH2O increase step (p = 0.048) until the PEEP 15 cmH2O (0.019) decrease step with the highest values at PEEP 20 cmH20 (p = 0.016), returning to baseline values thereafter. Silent space of the dependent regions did not show any significant changes. Drive pressure decreased significantly in the PEEP 10 and 5 cmH2O decrease steps (p = 0.032) accompanied by increased respiratory static compliance in the same PEEP step (p = 0.035 and 0.018, respectively). Conclusions The regional ventilation distribution assessed by EIT showed that the best PEEP value for recruitment maintenance, capable of decreasing areas of pulmonary atelectasis in dependent regions promoting less overinflation in nondependent areas, was from 10 to 5 cmH2O decreased steps.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Several diagnostic techniques are used in dogs with signs of respiratory disease. The aims of the present study are to estimate the relative sensitivities and associations between the results of diagnostic tests in dogs with respiratory conditions. METHOD A retrospective cross-sectional study of dogs referred for investigation of respiratory signs. Associations between clinical signs, thoracic CT findings, tracheobronchoscopic findings, cytology results and bacterial culture results were tested using binary logistic regression. RESULTS One hundred and thirty-three dogs were included. Abnormalities were detected by cytology, tracheobronchoscopy, CT and bacterial culture in 91%, 88%, 80% and 25% cases, respectively. There were associations between cough and bronchial lesions on thoracic CT (odds ratio [OR] 2.6, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.1-6.4, p = 0.037), and between cough and neutrophilic inflammation on cytology (OR 4.5, 95% CI 1.3-15.8, p = 0.020). Bronchial foreign body at bronchoscopy was associated with pulmonary consolidation on CT (OR 8.0, 95% CI 1.6-41.7, p = 0.013) and with positive bacterial culture (OR 10.9, 95% CI 2.1-57.0, p = 0.005). In dogs with normal thoracic CT, abnormalities were detected by cytology, tracheobronchoscopy and bacterial culture in 89%, 77% and 23% cases, respectively. CONCLUSION Airway cytology and tracheobronchoscopy provided useful information for diagnosis in many dogs with respiratory signs that had a normal thoracic CT.

Abstract
General anesthesia optimizes image quality of thoracic CT in dogs by providing patient immobilization and respiratory control. However, it also comes with disadvantages that may serve as a detractor to the use of CT in veterinary practice. With the use of multidetector helical CT combined with injectable sedation for restraint, parameters such as atelectasis and poorly aerated lung should not be appreciably different from what has been observed in dogs under general anesthesia. This prospective pilot study aimed to evaluate the mean lung attenuation and the amount of atelectasis and poorly aerated lung on thoracic CT images acquired under injectable sedation in normal dogs. The entire thorax of 10 client-owned dogs was scanned. Attenuation measurements were generated by three-dimensional reconstruction software. Mean ± SD lung attenuation was -707.0 ± 60.0. Atelectasis was not identified on any of the scans. Hypoinflated lung, the percentage of lung parenchyma with attenuation greater than -500 and -250 Hounsfield units (HU), was 10.7 ± 4.7% and 2.4 ± 1.2% (mean ± SD), respectively. There was no significant change in these percentages over time. Compared to previously published data, thoracic CT images obtained under sedation had mean attenuation comparable to normal expiratory lung and a lower percentage of poorly aerated lung compared to that of anesthetized dogs. Using sedation to complete canine thoracic CT does not itself lead to alterations of lung attenuation and may confer less hypoinflation and atelectasis than general anesthesia.

Abstract
We describe the respiratory mechanics and lung aeration in anesthetized obese dogs ventilated with tidal volumes (VT) based on ideal (VTi) vs. current (VTc) body weight. Six dogs with body condition scores ≥ 8/9 were included. End-expiratory respiratory mechanics and end-expiratory CT-scan were obtained at baseline for each dog. Thereafter, dogs were ventilated with VT 15 ml kg−1 based on VTi and VTc, applied randomly. Respiratory mechanics and CT-scan were repeated at end-inspiration during VTi and VTc. Data analyzed with linear mixed models and reported as mean ± SD or median [range]. Statistical significance p < 0.05. The elastance of the lung, chest wall and respiratory system indexed by ideal body weight (IBW) were positively correlated with body fat percentage, whereas the functional residual capacity indexed by IBW was negatively correlated with body fat percentage. At end-expiration, aeration (%) was: hyperaeration 0.03 [0.00–3.35], normoaeration 69.7 [44.6–82.2], hypoaeration 29.3 [13.6–49.4] and nonaeration (1.06% [0.37–6.02]). Next to the diaphragm, normoaeration dropped to 12 ± 11% and hypoaeration increased to 90 ± 8%. No differences in aeration between groups were found at end-inspiration. Airway driving pressure (cm H2O) was higher (p = 0.002) during VTc (9.8 ± 0.7) compared with VTi (7.6 ± 0.4). Lung strain was higher (p = 0.014) during VTc (55 ± 21%) than VTi (38 ± 10%). The stress index was higher (p = 0.012) during VTc (SI = 1.07 [0.14]) compared with VTi (SI = 0.93 [0.18]). This study indicates that body fat percentage influences the magnitude of lung, chest wall, and total respiratory system elastance and resistance, as well as functional residual capacity. Further, these results indicate that obese dogs have extensive areas of hypoaerated lungs, especially in caudodorsal regions. Finally, lung strain and airway driving pressure, surrogates of lung deformation, are higher during VTc than during VTi, suggesting that in obese anesthetized dogs, ventilation protocols based on IBW may be advantageous.

Evaluation of the Effect of the Inspired Oxygen Fraction on Blood Oxygenation during Inhalant Anaesthesia in Horses: A Systematic Review with Meta-Analysis. Animals (Basel) 2021; 11:ani11082245. [PMID: 34438703 PMCID: PMC8388394 DOI: 10.3390/ani11082245] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/21/2021] [Revised: 07/07/2021] [Accepted: 07/27/2021] [Indexed: 02/08/2023] Open
Abstract
In anaesthetized horses, pronounced ventilation/perfusion mismatching often occurs. Several authors have investigated the effect of lower inspired oxygen fractions (FiO2) to reduce formation of absorption atelectasis. This systematic review compared the effects of low (<0.6) and high (>0.8) FiO2 on the arterial oxygen tension (PaO2), the alveolar-to-arterial oxygen tension difference (P(A-a)O2), and the PaO2/FiO2 ratio in horses during inhalation anaesthesia. Using the Systematic Review Protocol for Animal Intervention Studies, four experimental and one clinical investigations were deemed suitable for inclusion. A meta-analysis was performed on the four experimental studies. The PaO2 was significantly lower (p = 0.0007, mean difference -23.54 kPa, 95% CI -37.18, -9.90) with a lower FiO2. However, the P(A-a)O2 was also significantly lower (p < 0.00001, mean difference -20.80 kPa, 95% CI -26.28, -15.32) when using a low FiO2. For the PaO2/FiO2 ratio, only one study fitted the inclusion criteria, so no meta-analysis was performed. It is concluded that, while only a limited number of studies are available, the use of a higher FiO2 in horses during inhalation anaesthesia will result in higher levels of PaO2, but also a larger P(A-a)O2 difference. Further studies are needed to increase the level of evidence on this subject.

Vet Anaesth Analg 2021; 48:841-853. [PMID: 34391669 DOI: 10.1016/j.vaa.2021.03.019] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/15/2020] [Revised: 01/26/2021] [Accepted: 03/27/2021] [Indexed: 12/16/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess and compare the effect of intraoperative stepwise alveolar recruitment manoeuvres (ARMs), followed by individualized positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP), defined as PEEP at maximal respiratory system compliance + 2 cmH2O (PEEPmaxCrs+2), with that of spontaneous ventilation (SV) and controlled mechanical ventilation (CMV) without ARM or PEEP on early postoperative arterial oxygenation in anaesthetized healthy dogs. STUDY DESIGN Prospective, randomized, nonblinded clinical study. ANIMALS A total of 32 healthy client-owned dogs undergoing surgery in dorsal recumbency. METHODS Dogs were ventilated intraoperatively (inspired oxygen fraction: 0.5) with one of the following strategies: SV, CMV alone, and CMV with PEEPmaxCrs+2 following a single ARM (ARM1) or two ARMs (ARM2, the second ARM at the end of surgery). Arterial blood gas analyses were performed before starting the ventilatory strategy, at the end of surgery, and at 5, 10, 15, 30 and 60 minutes after extubation while breathing room air. Data were analysed using Kruskal-Wallis and Friedman tests (p < 0.050). RESULTS At any time point after extubation, PaO2 was not significantly different between groups. At 5 minutes after extubation, PaO2 was 95.1 (78.1-104.0), 93.8 (88.3-104.0), 96.9 (86.6-115.0) and 89.1 (87.6-102.0) mmHg in the SV, CMV, ARM1 and ARM2 groups, respectively. PaO2 decreased at 30 minutes after extubation in the CMV, ARM1 and ARM2 groups (p < 0.050), but it did not decrease after 30 minutes in the SV group. Moderate hypoxaemia (PaO2, 60-80 mmHg) was observed in one dog in the ARM1 group and two dogs each in the SV and ARM2 groups. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE Intraoperative ARMs, followed by PEEPmaxCrs+2, did not improve early postoperative arterial oxygenation compared with SV or CMV alone in healthy anaesthetized dogs. Therefore, this ventilatory strategy might not be clinically advantageous for improving postoperative arterial oxygenation in healthy dogs undergoing surgery when positioned in dorsal recumbency.

The evaluation of non-anesthetic computed tomography for detection of pulmonary parenchyma in feline mammary gland carcinoma: a preliminary study. BMC Vet Res 2021; 17:237. [PMID: 34229677 PMCID: PMC8259360 DOI: 10.1186/s12917-021-02950-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/24/2021] [Accepted: 06/29/2021] [Indexed: 11/10/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Thoracic radiography in awake cats is a common procedure for the evaluation of pulmonary metastasis in feline mammary gland carcinoma (MGC). However, due to poor sensitivity, computed tomography (CT) is progressively taking its place. To perform CT in animals, general anesthesia is normally preferred but can cause lung atelectasis, affecting lung interpretation. Besides, MGC is often found in senile cats that are concurrently affected with other diseases, increasing anesthetic risk. Therefore, this study was aimed at comparing the effect of anesthesia on lung atelectasis observed through CT in clinically healthy cats and comparing the feasibility of non-anesthetic CT with non-anesthetic radiography in the detection of lung lesions in feline MGC. Thoracic CTs from anesthetized, clinically healthy cats and non-anesthetized either clinically healthy cats or MGC-affected cats were reviewed. In clinically healthy cats, motion artifacts and characteristics of lung atelectasis were observed and compared. In MGC-affected cats, motion artifacts were observed and compared to clinically healthy cats, and the number of MGC-affected cats, the number and characteristics of lung lesions were compared between non-anesthetic thoracic CT and radiography. Results Anesthesia significantly increased lung CT attenuation (P = 0.0047) and was significantly correlated with lung atelectasis (OR = 15; CI 2.02–111.18; P = 0.0081), particularly of the cranial lung lobe. Nonetheless, significantly higher motion artifacts in the caudal thoracic area were found in non-anesthetized healthy cats (P = 0.0146), but comparable low motion artifacts were observed in anesthetized healthy and MGC-affected cats. Non-anesthetic CT revealed higher numbers of MGC-affected cats and pulmonary nodules with a significantly lower nodular diameter (P = 0.0041) than those observed on radiographs. The smallest nodular diameters detected on radiographs and CT were 2.5 and 1.0 mm, respectively. Furthermore, CT showed additional information such as intra-thoracic lymphadenopathy, that could not be seen on radiographs. Conclusions Despite the motion artifacts, CT without anesthesia is a sensitive technique as it provides better lung inflation. Furthermore, compared to non-anesthetic radiography, non-anesthetic CT provided more information such as higher number of pulmonary nodules of a smaller size, including more distinct intra-thoracic lesions, such as lymphadenopathy, in MGC-affected cats.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare 5 cmH2 O of continuous positive airway pressure with oxygen therapy in dogs recovering from general anaesthesia with low SpO2 values. continuous positive airway pressure is more effective than oxygen therapy in restoring normoxaemia (SpO2 ≥95%). MATERIALS AND METHODS Prospectively, dogs recovering from anaesthesia, with SpO2 <95% after extubation (T0), were randomised and treated with continuous positive airway pressure (FiO2 0.21) or oxygen (O2 ; FiO2 0.35-0.40) therapy. Dogs were monitored with SpO2 every 15 minutes for 1 hour (T15, T30, T45, T60). Data from normoxaemic dogs (SpO2 >95%) were used as control (CTR). RESULTS Of the 42 dogs enrolled, 34 completed the study. Eleven dogs were treated with O2 , 10 with continuous positive airway pressure and 13 were CTR. The SpO2 values at T0 were similar in the continuous positive airway pressure and O2 groups and were lower than in the CTR group. At T15, T30, T45 and T60, the SpO2 values in the continuous positive airway pressure group were higher than at T0; these were similar to those of the CTR group at the same time-points. In the O2 group, SpO2 values were significantly higher at T45 and T60 than at T0; 45.5% of dogs became normoxaemic at T45 and the remaining dogs became normoxaemic at T60. The average time to reach normoxaemia in the O2 group (53.1±7.3 minutes) was longer than in the continuous positive airway pressure group (15.0±0.0 minutes). CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE In dogs recovering from general anaesthesia with pulmonary gas exchange impairment, normoxaemia is restored more effectively and rapidly by using continuous positive airway pressure than by oxygen therapy.

Abstract
In the neonatal respiratory distress syndrome (NRDS) and acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), mechanical ventilation supports gas exchange but can cause ventilation-induced lung injury (VILI) that contributes to high mortality. Further, surface tension, T, should be elevated and VILI is proportional to T. Surfactant therapy is effective in NRDS but not ARDS. Sulforhodamine B (SRB) is a potential alternative T-lowering therapeutic. In anesthetized male rats, we injure the lungs with 15 min of 42 mL/kg tidal volume, VT, and zero end-expiratory pressure ventilation. Then, over 4 h, we support the rats with protective ventilation-VT of 6 mL/kg with positive end-expiratory pressure. At the start of the support period, we administer intravenous non-T-altering fluorescein (targeting 27 µM in plasma) without or with therapeutic SRB (10 nM). Throughout the support period, we increase inspired oxygen fraction, as necessary, to maintain >90% arterial oxygen saturation. At the end of the support period, we euthanize the rat; sample systemic venous blood for injury marker ELISAs; excise the lungs; combine confocal microscopy and servo-nulling pressure measurement to determine T in situ in the lungs; image fluorescein in alveolar liquid to assess local permeability; and determine lavage protein content and wet-to-dry ratio (W/D) to assess global permeability. Lungs exhibit focal injury. Surface tension is elevated 72% throughout control lungs and in uninjured regions of SRB-treated lungs, but normal in injured regions of treated lungs. SRB administration improves oxygenation, reduces W/D, and reduces plasma injury markers. Intravenous SRB holds promise as a therapy for respiratory distress.NEW & NOTEWORTHY Sulforhodmaine B lowers T in alveolar edema liquid. Given the problematic intratracheal delivery of surfactant therapy for ARDS, intravenous SRB might constitute an alternative therapeutic. In a lung injury model, we find that intravenously administered SRB crosses the injured alveolar-capillary barrier thus reduces T specifically in injured lung regions; improves oxygenation; and reduces the degree of further lung injury. Intravenous SRB administration might help respiratory distress patients, including those with the novel coronavirus, avoid mechanical ventilation or, once ventilated, survive.

Abstract
Spontaneous pneumothorax presents a unique diagnostic and therapeutic challenge in veterinary medicine, specifically with regard to accurate identification of bullous lesions. Positioning of dogs with spontaneous pneumothorax during CT has not previously been evaluated. This retrospective, diagnostic accuracy study was performed to evaluate the sensitivity, positive predictive value (PPV), and interobserver variability for detection of pulmonary bullae with dogs positioned in multiple recumbencies. Dogs underwent CT in sternal and dorsal recumbency followed by thoracic exploration via median sternotomy. Three American College of Veterinary Radiology-certified veterinary radiologists blinded to surgical findings reviewed dorsal and sternal images simultaneously. Severity of pneumothorax, degree of atelectasis, lesion location and size, and view in which lesions were most confidently identified were compared to surgical and histologic findings. Sensitivities and PPVs for bulla detection ranged from 57.7% to 69.2% and 62.1% to 78.9%, respectively. For two of the 3 radiologists, the location of bullae in the thorax was significantly associated with the recumbency in which the lesion was best identified. Degree of atelectasis was found to be associated with the ability to identify lesions (P ≤ .02). The interobserver variability for identification was good (κ = 0.670). The sensitivity of CT when performed in both sternal and dorsal recumbency is similar to that previously reported. Because the distribution of bullae is unknown prior to advanced imaging and bulla location affects which recumbency is most useful for identification, acquisition of CT images in both sternal and dorsal recumbency may improve detection of bullous lesions and aid surgical planning.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To determine the influence of several factors on respiratory system compliance in volume-controlled mechanically ventilated healthy anaesthetised dogs. MATERIALS AND METHODS Review of 100 dogs anaesthetised for elective surgeries between 2015 and 2016. Dogs were mechanically ventilated with a respiratory rate adjusted to maintain normocapnia and a fraction of inspired oxygen of 50%. Body weight, body condition score, age, thoracic shape, time in spontaneous ventilation before volume-controlled ventilation, time with a fraction of inspired oxygen of 100% until starting mechanical ventilation, type of surgery and patient position were recorded. Respiratory system compliance, expressed per kg of bodyweight, was recorded every 15 minutes following initiation of volume-controlled ventilation. RESULTS Baseline respiratory system compliance was 1.3 ± 0.3 mL/cmH2 O/kg and was reduced by high body condition score and barrel-shaped thorax but not by age, type of surgery or patient position, time in spontaneous ventilation nor time with a fraction of inspired oxygen of 100%. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE Respiratory system compliance is lower in overweight and barrel-chested dogs and should be taken into account during monitoring of lung function and ventilation management under general anaesthesia.

The aim was to assess the effects of recumbency and body condition score (BCS) on open-lung positive end-expiratory pressure (OL-PEEP) and quasistatic respiratory system compliance (Crs) following stepwise lung recruitment manoeuvre (RM) in healthy dogs under general anaesthesia. Thirty-four dogs were anaesthetised and mechanically ventilated (tidal volume of 10 mL/kg) without PEEP for 1 min (baseline). A stepwise RM was then performed and the individual OL-PEEP was subsequently applied. The Crs was registered at baseline and every 10-min for 50 min after RM. Dogs were classified into either dorsal or lateral recumbency groups, and as normal (score 4-5/9) or high (≥6/9) BCS groups. The OL-PEEP was higher in lateral than in dorsal recumbency (P = .002), but differences were not observed between normal and high BCS (P = .865). The Crs was increased from baseline at all time points after RM in all groups. The Crs did not differ between dorsally and laterally recumbent dogs at any time point. However, the baseline Crs was significantly lower in dogs with a high BCS than in those with a normal BCS (P < .001); therefore, the absolute change from baseline was considered when comparing Crs after the RM and it was similar in both BCS groups. In conclusion, in anaesthetised healthy dogs the OL-PEEP following RM was lower when dogs were positioned in dorsal than in lateral recumbency. The Crs after RM remained unchanged regardless of the dogs' recumbency. A stepwise RM followed by OL-PEEP could compensate for the potential negative impact of moderately increased BCS on Crs.

COMPUTED TOMOGRAPHY LUNG VOLUME DIFFERS BETWEEN VERTICAL AND INVERTED POSITIONING FOR EGYPTIAN FRUIT BATS ( ROUSETTUS AEGYPTIACUS). J Zoo Wildl Med 2020; 50:897-902.

Abstract
This prospective study characterizes the impact of positioning on the pulmonary volume and pulmonary atelectasis in Egyptian fruit bats (Rousettus aegyptiacus). The soft tissue appearance of atelectactic pulmonary parenchyma can obscure or mask pulmonary pathology. Soft tissue within healthy lung parenchyma caused by atelectasis can efface the margins of pathology, such as pulmonary metastasis or pneumonia, due to overlapping attenuation profiles. Pulmonary atelectasis is an unwanted side effect of anesthesia resulting from muscle relaxation and is exacerbated by high (80-100%) inspired oxygen supplementation during general anesthesia. Positioning can help minimize pulmonary atelectasis. Seven R. aegyptiacus received computed tomography imaging in suspended vertical (head-up) and inverted (head-down) positions that generated images in the dorsoventral plane. Vertically positioned bats had a significantly greater lung volume compared to inverted positioning (P = 0.0053). The nondependent portion of the lung apices in the vertically positioned bats had significantly more negative Hounsfield units (i.e. less dense tissue) than the dependent portions of the lung and was also less dense than both portions of the lungs in inverted positioned bats. Although not an intuitive positioning for bats, a vertical orientation generates less pulmonary atelectasis and a greater lung volume compared to bats positioned in a more natural inverted position. Despite physiologic adaptations to hang in an inverted position when not in flight, avoidance of inverted positioning during anesthesia and anesthetic recovery is recommended based on these findings.

Postoperative oxygenation in healthy dogs following mechanical ventilation with fractions of inspired oxygen of 0.4 or >0.9. Vet Anaesth Analg 2020; 47:295-300. [PMID: 32197879 DOI: 10.1016/j.vaa.2020.01.002] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/29/2019] [Revised: 12/02/2019] [Accepted: 01/04/2020] [Indexed: 11/20/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate arterial oxygenation during the first 4 postoperative hours in dogs administered different fractions of inspired oxygen (FiO2) during general anesthesia with mechanical ventilation. STUDY DESIGN Prospective, randomized clinical trial. ANIMALS A total of 20 healthy female dogs, weighing >15 kg and body condition scores 3-7/9, admitted for ovariohysterectomy. METHODS Dogs were randomized to breathe an FiO2 >0.9 or 0.4 during isoflurane anesthesia with intermittent positive pressure ventilation. The intraoperative PaO2:FiO2 ratio was recorded during closure of the linea alba. Arterial blood was obtained 5, 60 and 240 minutes after extubation for measurement of PaO2 and PaCO2 (FiO2 = 0.21). Demographic characteristics, duration of anesthesia, PaO2:FiO2 ratio and anesthetic agents were compared between groups with Wilcoxon tests. The postoperative PaO2, PaCO2, rectal temperature, a visual sedation score and events of hypoxemia (PaO2 < 80 mmHg) were compared between groups with mixed-effects models or generalized linear mixed models. RESULTS Groups were indistinguishable by demographic characteristics, duration of anesthesia, anesthetic agents administered and intraoperative PaO2:FiO2 ratio (all p > 0.08). Postoperative PaO2, PaCO2, rectal temperature or sedation score were not different between groups (all p > 0.07). During the first 4 postoperative hours, hypoxemia occurred in three and seven dogs that breathed FiO2 >0.9 or 0.4 during anesthesia, respectively (p = 0.04). CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE The results identified no advantage to decreasing FiO2 to 0.4 during anesthesia with mechanical ventilation with respect to postoperative oxygenation. Moreover, the incidence of hypoxemia in the first 4 hours after anesthesia was higher in these dogs than in dogs breathing FiO2 >0.9.

Abstract
Even when performed by skilled operators, locating the nerves can be challenging in small exotic pets; in such cases, the use of an electrical nerve stimulator may be useful to confirm the correct identification of the target nerve. Exotic animal anesthesia and analgesia have dramatically progressed over the past decade and continue to do so as more research and technologies develop. Technological advancements such as airway devices, endoscopic intubation techniques, positive intermittent pressure ventilators, and invasive and noninvasive blood pressure monitors have played a significant role in improving patient safety and the anesthetic outcomes of exotic animals.

Abstract
This study was performed to assess the effects of open-lung positive end-expiratory pressure (OL-PEEP) following stepwise recruitment manoeuvre (RM) and those of a fixed PEEP of 5 cm H2O without previous RM on respiratory system compliance (Crs) and selected cardiovascular variables in healthy dogs under general anaesthesia. Forty-five healthy client-owned dogs undergoing surgery were anaesthetised and mechanically ventilated (tidal volume, VT = 10-12 mL/kg; PEEP = 0 cm H2O) for 1 min (baseline) and randomly allocated into zero positive end-expiratory pressure (ZEEP), PEEP (5 cm H2O) and OL-PEEP treatment groups. In the OL-PEEP group, a stepwise RM was performed and the individual OL-PEEP was subsequently applied. The Crs, heart rate (HR) and non-invasive mean arterial pressure (NIMAP) were registered at baseline and then every 10 min during 60 min. In the ZEEP group, Crs decreased from baseline. In the PEEP group, Crs was not different from either baseline or ZEEP group values. In the OL-PEEP group, Crs was higher than both baseline and ZEEP group values at all time points as well as of those in the PEEP group during at least 20 min after RM. There were no differences for HR and NIMAP between groups. A clinically relevant hypotension following RM was observed in 40% of dogs. Therefore, an individually set OL-PEEP following stepwise RM improved Crs in anaesthetised healthy dogs, although transient but clinically relevant hypotension was observed during RM in some dogs. Fixed PEEP of 5 cm H2O without previous RM did not improve Crs, although it prevented it from decreasing.

Abstract
In humans, high-resolution computed tomography (CT) is a key diagnostic modality for pulmonary disorders. Its success likely lies in excellent correlation of lung diseases with associated subgross anatomic changes, as assessed by histopathology, and because of a multidisciplinary approach between clinicians, radiologists and pathologists. Although thoracic CT studies have been performed in dogs and cats for nearly three decades, there is a lack of uniformity in both protocols for acquisition and in terminology used to describe lesions. Importantly, terms such as a bronchial, interstitial, and alveolar patterns are inappropriate descriptors for canine and feline thoracic CT imaging changes; instead, lung patterns should be classified as increased or decreased attenuation, nodular patterns, and linear patterns, with specific vocabulary to describe subtypes of lesions. In this manuscript, the authors provide an overview of basic CT principles, strategies to optimize and acquire high-quality diagnostic studies (inclusive of paired inspiratory and expiratory series, contrast and triphasic angiography) and provide a roadmap for systematic interpretation of thoracic CT images.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess effects of nitrogen and helium on efficacy of an alveolar recruitment maneuver (ARM) for improving pulmonary mechanics and oxygen exchange in anesthetized horses. ANIMALS 6 healthy adult horses. PROCEDURES Horses were anesthetized twice in a randomized crossover study. Isoflurane-anesthetized horses in dorsal recumbency were ventilated with 30% oxygen and 70% nitrogen (treatment N) or heliox (30% oxygen and 70% helium; treatment H) as carrier gas. After 60 minutes, an ARM was performed. Optimal positive end-expiratory pressure was identified and maintained for 120 minutes. Throughout the experiment, arterial blood pressures, heart rate, peak inspiratory pressure, dynamic compliance (Cdyn), and Pao2 were measured. Variables were compared with baseline values and between treatments by use of an ANOVA. RESULTS The ARM resulted in significant increases in Pao2 and Cdyn and decreases in the alveolar-arterial gradient in the partial pressure of oxygen in all horses. After the ARM and during the subsequent 120-minute phase, mean values were significantly lower for treatment N than treatment H for Pao2 and Cdyn. Optimal positive end-expiratory pressure was consistently 15 cm H2O for treatment N, but it was 10 cm H2O (4 horses) and 15 cm H2O (2 horses) for treatment H. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE An ARM in anesthetized horses might be more efficacious in improving Pao2 and Cdyn when animals breathe helium instead of nitrogen as the inert gas.

Abstract
Canine idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis is a chronic, progressive interstitial lung disease particularly prevalent in West Highland White Terriers. In the present prospective pilot study, we evaluated the feasibility of modified VetMousetrap™ device in high resolution CT to detect idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis in West Highland White Terriers. Twelve awake West Highland White Terriers with canine idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis and 24 clinically healthy West Highland White Terriers were scanned using a helical dual slice scanner utilizing VetMousetrap™ device without or with minimal chemical restraint with butorphanol. Three evaluators blindly assessed the images for image quality and the presence of canine idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis related imaging findings such as ground glass opacity and reticular opacities. Additionally, the attenuation of the lung was quantified with ImageJ software using histogram analysis of density over the lung fields. Computed tomography was successfully completed and motion artifact ranked in statistical analysis barely noticeable to mild in all dogs. The agreement between imaging findings and clinical status was very good with overall κ value 0.91 and percentage of agreement of 94%. There was also very good intraobserver (κrange = 0.79-0.91) and interobserver agreement (κ = 0.94). Moderate to severe ground glass opacity was present in all affected dogs. In the ImageJ analysis, a significant difference in lung attenuation between the study groups was observed. We conclude that modified VetMousetrap™ device is applicable in diagnosing canine idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis in awake West Highland White Terriers avoiding anesthetic risk in these often severely hypoxic patients.

Abstract
Brachycephalic breeds of dog have grown in popularity in the UK and so form an increasing proportion of cases requiring anaesthesia. These breeds are predisposed to several conditions, notably brachycephalic obstructive airway syndrome and gastro-oesophageal reflux, that have important implications for anaesthetic management and carry high risk for complications. This review incorporates peer-reviewed veterinary literature with clinical experience in a discussion on perioperative management of brachycephalic dogs. We focus on preoperative identification of common concurrent conditions, practical strategies for reducing anaesthetic risk and improving postoperative management. Comparisons of brachycephalic obstructive airway syndrome with the human condition of obstructive sleep apnoea are included where appropriate.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To quantify the effect of time and recumbency on CT measurements of lung volume and attenuation in healthy cats under general anesthesia. ANIMALS 8 healthy research cats. PROCEDURES Anesthetized cats were positioned in sternal recumbency for 20 minutes and then in left, right, and left lateral recumbency (40 minutes/position). Expiratory helical CT scan of the thorax was performed at 0 and 20 minutes in sternal recumbency and at 0, 5, 10, 20, 30, and 40 minutes in each lateral recumbent position. For each lung, CT measurements of lung volume and attenuation and the extent of lung areas that were hyperaerated (-1,000 to -901 Hounsfield units [HU]), normoaerated (-900 to -501 HU), poorly aerated (-500 to -101 HU), or nonaerated (-100 to +100 HU [indicative of atelectasis]) were determined with a semiautomatic threshold-based technique. A restricted maximum likelihood analysis was performed. RESULTS In lateral recumbency, the dependent lung had significantly greater attenuation and a lower volume than the nondependent lung. Within the dependent lung, there was a significantly higher percentage of poorly aerated lung tissue, compared with that in the nondependent lung. These changes were detected immediately after positioning the cats in lateral recumbency and remained static with no further significant time-related change. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE Results indicated that once anesthetized healthy cats were positioned in lateral recumbency, the dependent lung lobes underwent a rapid reduction in lung volume and increase in lung attenuation that did not progress over time, predominantly attributable to an increase in poorly aerated lung tissue.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare the effects of two concentrations of oxygen delivered to the anaesthetic breathing circuit on oxygenation in mechanically ventilated horses anaesthetised with isoflurane and positioned in dorsal or lateral recumbency. METHODS Selected respiratory parameters and blood lactate were measured and oxygenation indices calculated, before and during general anaesthesia, in 24 laterally or dorsally recumbent horses. Horses were randomly assigned to receive 100% or 60% oxygen during anaesthesia. All horses were anaesthetised using the same protocol and intermittent positive pressure ventilation (IPPV) was commenced immediately following anaesthetic induction and endotracheal intubation. Arterial blood gas analysis was performed and oxygenation indices calculated before premedication, immediately after induction, at 10 and 45 min after the commencement of mechanical ventilation, and in recovery. RESULTS During anaesthesia, the arterial partial pressure of oxygen was adequate in all horses, regardless of position of recumbency or the concentration of oxygen provided. At 10 and 45 min after commencing IPPV, the arterial partial pressure of oxygen was lower in horses in dorsal recumbency compared with those in lateral recumbency, irrespective of the concentration of oxygen supplied. Based on oxygenation indices, pulmonary function during general anaesthesia in horses placed in dorsal recumbency was more compromised than in horses in lateral recumbency, irrespective of the concentration of oxygen provided. CONCLUSION During general anaesthesia, using oxygen at a concentration of 60% instead of 100% maintains adequate arterial oxygenation in horses in dorsal or lateral recumbency. However, it will not reduce pulmonary function abnormalities induced by anaesthesia and recumbency.

Abstract
In veterinary medicine, patients undergo magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) under general anesthesia to enable acquisition of artifact-free images. The fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO2) ranges between 30 and 95%. In humans, a high FiO2 is associated with incomplete signal suppression of peripheral cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) spaces on T2-weighted fluid-attenuated inversion recovery (T2w-FLAIR) sequences. The influence of FiO2 on T2w-FLAIR images remains unreported in small animals. The aim of this prospective study was to investigate whether a high FiO2 is associated with hyperintensity in peripheral CSF spaces on T2w-FLAIR images in dogs and cats. Client-owned patients undergoing brain MRI were prospectively enrolled. Animals with brain parenchymal abnormalities and/or meningeal contrast enhancement on MRI images and/or abnormal CSF analysis were excluded. Consequently, twelve patients were enrolled. Anesthesia was maintained by isoflurane 0.5-1 minimal alveolar concentration in 30% oxygen. After acquisition of transverse and dorsal T2w-FLAIR images, the FiO2 was increased to 95%. The T2w-FLAIR sequences were then repeated after 40 min. Arterial blood gas analysis was performed in six patients at the same time as T2w-FLAIR sequence acquisition. Plot profiles of the signal intensity (SI) from CSF spaces of three cerebral sulci and adjacent gray and white matter were generated. SI ratios of CSF space and white matter were compared between the T2w-FLAIR images with 30 and 95% FiO2. An observer blinded to the FiO2, subjectively evaluated the SI of peripheral CSF spaces on T2w-FLAIR images as high or low. There was significant difference in the partial pressure of oxygen between the two arterial samples (P < 0.001). The SI ratios obtained from the T2w-FLAIR images with 95% FiO2 were significantly higher compared with those obtained from the T2w-FLAIR images with 30% FiO2 (P < 0.05). The peripheral CSF spaces were subjectively considered hyperintense in 11 of 12 cases on T2w-FLAIR images with 95% FiO2 (P < 0.005). A clear difference in SI, dependent on the FiO2 was seen in the peripheral CSF spaces on T2w-FLAIR images. In conclusion, the influence of FiO2 must be considered when differentiating pathological and normal CSF spaces on T2w-FLAIR images in dogs and cats.

Hornby NL, Lamb CR. Does the computed tomographic appearance of the lung differ between young and old dogs? Vet Radiol Ultrasound 2017; 58:647-652.

Abstract
In computed tomographic (CT) images of humans, decreased lung attenuation, bronchial dilation, and/or thickening, air trapping, cysts, and thickened interlobular septa have been associated with increasing age. To determine if there are differences in the CT appearance of the lungs of young and old dogs that could affect interpretation of diagnostic studies, pulmonary CT images of dogs with conditions unrelated to the thorax were reviewed retrospectively in a case-control study. Computed tomography studies of 42 young dogs (range 0.3-4.8 years) and 47 old dogs (range 9-15.1 years) were jumbled and reviewed by an observer blinded to dog age. Computed tomography was performed under sedation in 62 (70%) dogs and under general anesthesia in 27 (30%). Heterotopic bone was more prevalent (62% vs. 14%) in old dogs. Lung collapse was significantly associated with old age, greater body weight, and anesthesia. There were no significant differences in median lung attenuation or occurrence of ground glass pattern, cysts, bronchial thickening, bronchial dilation, or degree of tracheal calcification. No examples of reticular pattern, emphysema, pleural thickening, or septal thickening were observed in any dog. Despite previous studies describing age-related changes in the radiographic appearance of the lungs of old dogs, it appears that there are minimal observable differences in CT images. Old dogs are more likely to have visible foci of heterotopic bone and may be more prone to lung lobe collapse than young dogs, but neither of these differences should contribute to misdiagnosis of pulmonary disease.

Abstract
Objectives The objective of this study was to determine if modification of inspired oxygen concentration or positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) would alter bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL)-induced changes in pulmonary mechanics or atelectasis, as measured using ventilator-acquired pulmonary mechanics and thoracic CT. Methods Six experimentally asthmatic cats underwent anesthesia and non-bronchoscopic BAL, each under four randomized treatment conditions: 100% oxygen, zero PEEP; 30% oxygen, zero PEEP; 100% oxygen, PEEP 2 cmH2O; and 30% oxygen, PEEP 2 cmH2O. Pulse oximetry was used to estimate oxygen saturation (SpO2). Ventilator-acquired pulmonary mechanics and thoracic CT scans were collected prior to BAL and at 1, 5 and 15 mins post-BAL. Results While receiving 100% oxygen, no cat had SpO2 <91%. Some cats receiving 30% oxygen had decreased saturation immediately post-BAL (mean ± SD 70.8 ± 31%), but 6/8 of these had SpO2 >90% by 1 min later. There was a significant increase in airway resistance and a decrease in lung compliance following BAL, but there was no significant difference between treatment groups. Cats receiving no PEEP and 30% oxygen conserved better aeration of the lung parenchyma in BAL-sampled areas than those receiving no PEEP and 100% oxygen. Conclusions and relevance Alterations in pulmonary mechanics or atelectasis may not be reflected by SpO2 following BAL. The use of 30% inspired oxygen concentration failed to show any significant improvement in pulmonary mechanics but did diminish atelectasis. In some cats, it was also associated with desaturation of hemoglobin. The use of PEEP in this study did not show any effect on our outcome parameters. Further studies using higher PEEP (5-10 cmH2O) and intermediate inspired oxygen concentration (40-60%) are warranted to determine if they would confer clinical benefit in cats undergoing diagnostic BAL.
