Bispectral Index In Calves Anesthetized With Xylazine, Midazolam, Ketamine, Isoflurane And Subjected To Continuous Rate Infusion Of Lidocaine

PURPOSE: To assess the bispectral index (BIS) and recovery in calves anesthetized with xylazine, midazolam, ketamine and isoflurane and subjected to CRI of lidocaine. METHODS: Xilazine was administered followed by ketamine and midazolam, orotracheal intubation and maintenance on isoflurane using mechanical ventilation. Lidocaine (2 mg kg-1 bolus) or saline (0.9%) was administered IV followed by a CRI (100 μg kg-1 minute-1) of lidocaine (L) or saline (C). Were recorded BIS, heart rate (HR), mean arterial pressure (MAP) and rectal temperature (RT) before administration of premedication (TB) and 15 minutes after (TX), before administering lidocaine (T0) and 20, 40, 60 and 80 minutes after the start of the CRI. Time do sternal recumbency (SRE) and standing (ST) and plasma lidocaine concentration also evaluated. RESULTS: In both treatments BIS decreased significantly at all times compared to TB. TX was higher than the subsequent times. HR decreased from baseline at all times and decreased from T40 in L compared to C. SRE was higher in L compared to C. CONCLUSIONS: Bispectral index values were consistent with the degree of hypnosis of the animals. Lidocaine did not potentiate isoflurane anesthesia assessed by BIS in unstimulated calves anesthetized with constant E´Iso. Lidocaine increased the time to sternal recumbency.3016772Haga, H.A., Dolvik, N.I., Evaluation of the bispectral index as an indicator of degree of central nervous system depression in isoflurane-anesthetizes horses (2002) Am J Vet Res, 63 (3), pp. 438-442Henao-Guerreno, P.N., McMurphy, R., Kukanich, B., Hodgson, D.S., Effect of morphine on the bispectral index during isoflurane anesthesia in dogs (2009) Vet Anaesth Analg, 36 (2), pp. 133-143Rosow, C., Manberg, P.J., Bispectral index monitoring (2001) Anesthesiol Clin North Am, 19 (4), pp. 947-966Antognini, J.F., Wang, X.W., Cartens, E., Isoflurane anaesthetic depth in goats monitored using the bispectral index of the electroencephalogram (2000) Vet Res Commun, 24 (6), pp. 361-370Martin-Cancho, M., Lima, J.R., Luis, L., Crisóstomo, V., Ezquerra, L.J., Carrasco, M.S., Usón-Gargallo, J., Bispectral index, spectral edge frequency 95%, and median frequency recorded for various concentration of isoflurane and sevoflurane in pigs (2003) Am J Vet Res, 64 (7), pp. 866-873March, P.A., Muir, W.W., Use of the bispectral index as a monitor of anesthetic depth in cats anesthetized with isoflurane (2003) Am J Vet Res, 64 (12), pp. 1534-1541Campagnol, D., Teixeira Neto, F.J., Monteiro, E.R., Beier, L.S., Aguiar, J.A., Use of bispectral index to monitor depth of anesthesia in isoflurane-anesthetized dogs (2007) Am J Vet Res, 68 (12), pp. 1300-1307Garcia-Pereira, F.L., Greene, A.S., Keegan, R.D., McEwen, M.M., Tibary, A., Effects of intravenous butorphanol on cardiopulmonary function in isoflurane-anesthetized alpacas (2007) Vet Anesth Analg, 34 (4), pp. 269-274Muir, W.W., Wiese, A.J., March, P.A., Effects of morphine, lidocaine, ketamine, and morphine-lidocaine-ketamine drug combination on minimum alveolar concentration in dogs anesthetized with isoflurane (2003) Am J Vet Res, 64 (9), pp. 1155-1160Vesal, N., Spadavecchia, C., Steiner, A., Kirscher, F., Levionnois, O.L., Evaluation of the isoflurane-sparing effects of lidocaine infusion during umbilical surgery in calves (2011) Vet Anaest Analg, 38 (5), pp. 451-460Dzikiti, T.B., Hellebrekers, P., Van Dijk, P., Effects of intravenous lidocaine on isoflurane concentration, physiological parameters, metabolic parameters and stress-related hormones in horses undergoing surgery (2003) J Vet Med A, 50 (4), pp. 190-195Pypendop, B.H., Ilkiw, J.E., The effects of intravenous lidocaine administration on the minimum alveolar concentration of isoflurane in cats.

Effects of desflurane, sevoflurane and isoflurane on pulmonary shunt in dogs during spontaneous ventilation

O estudo teve por objetivo avaliar os efeitos de três anestésicos inalatórios sobre o shunt pulmonar em cães sob ventilação espontânea. Trinta cães foram separados e protocolados em três grupos (G) de 10 cães cada. Induziu-se a anestesia geral por meio da administração intravenosa de propofol. em seguida procedeu-se à anestesia geral inalatória pelo desflurano (G1), sevoflurano (G2) ou isoflurano (G3) na concentração de 1,5 CAM. Para a determinação dos parâmetros utilizados nas equações para cálculo do shunt intrapulmonar foram colhidos sangue arterial por punção da artéria femoral direita, e sangue misto, por meio de cateter de Swan-Ganz, posicionado na artéria pulmonar. As mensurações tiveram início 20min após a intubação orotraqueal e se repetiram a cada 20min, num total de seis colheitas. Contrastes de médias foram feitos pelo teste t de Student (P£ 0,05). O desflurano apresentou shunt pulmonar superior aos apresentados pelo sevoflurano e isoflurano aos 40 e 60min. Aos 80min, os valores médios obtidos com o desflurano foram superiores aos obtidos pelo isoflurano, enquanto que aos 100min foram mais elevados do que os obtidos pelo sevoflurano. O desflurano, quando comparado ao isoflurano e ao sevoflurano, produziu depressão respiratória pela redução da PaO2, determinando maior percentagem de shunt intrapulmonar.The aim of this study was to compare the effects of desflurane, sevoflurane and isoflurane on pulmonary shunt in dogs during spontaneous ventilation. General anesthesia was induced in 30 healthy, adult, mongrel dogs by intravenous administration of propofol. The animals were separated into three groups of 10 dogs each and submitted to general inhalation anesthesia with 1.5 MAC of desflurane (G1), sevoflurane (G2) and isoflurane (G3). Arterial blood was collected by puncture of the right femoral artery, and mixed blood was collected by introducing a Swan-Ganz catheter into the pulmonary artery. These samples were used to determine the parameters employed for calculation of the intrapulmonary shunt. Measurements began at 20min after orotracheal intubation and were repeated every 20min, totaling six measurements. Means were compared by the Student t-test (P£ 0.05). Desflurane led to a higher shunt than sevoflurane and isoflurane at 40 and 60min. At 80min, the mean values obtained for desflurane were higher than those obtained for isoflurane, while at 100min the values observed for dogs anesthetized with desflurane were higher than those obtained with sevoflurane. Desflurane caused respiratory depression by reducing PaO2, and a higher percentage of intrapulmonary shunt than isoflurane and sevoflurane.Fundação de Amparo à Pesquisa do Estado de São Paulo (FAPESP

Alterações eletrocardiográficas em cães pré-medicados com levomepromazina e submetidos à anestesia por propofol e sevoflurano

Avaliaram-se as variáveis eletrocardiográficas em cães submetidos à anestesia pelo sevoflurano. Foram empregados 16 cães clinicamente sadios, adultos, machos ou fêmeas, com peso médio de 15±3,5kg. Administrou-se levomepromazina (1,0 mg/kg) seguida pela administração de propofol (5,0 mg/kg), ambos pela via endovenosa. Os animais foram intubados e submetidos à anestesia inalatória com sevoflurano diluído em oxigênio, através de circuito semi-fechado na concentração de 3,5V%. As aferições das freqüências cardíaca e respiratória, oximetria, capnometria, pressões arteriais sistólica, diastólica e média e das variáveis eletrocardiográficas foram realizadas imediatamente antes da administração da levomepromazina, 15 minutos após e imediatamente antes da administração do propofol, após 15 minutos da administração do agente inalatório e consecutivamente a cada 20 minutos. Após administração de levomepromazina, propofol e sevoflurano observou-se decréscimo das pressões arteriais sistólica e média. A levomepromazina ocasionou prolongamento do intervalo QT. O sevoflurano promoveu prolongamento da onda P e aumento de sua amplitude aos 70 e 130 minutos de anestesia, respectivamente, além de prolongamento do intervalo QT. Concluiu-se que a anestesia por sevoflurano, nas condições deste experimento, promoveu prolongamento do intervalo QT, sem no entanto incorrer em arritmias
