Originally Published hereTo examine whether increased systemic arterial blood pressure (ABP) and decreased heart rate (HR) under inhalant anesthesia were suggestive of the Cushing reflex (CR) in dogs with neurological diseases based on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings.
Originally Published hereIn dogs, transient perioperative atelectasis is predominantly attributed to passive mechanisms, including compressive and resorptive atelectasis (De Monte et al. 2013). This typically manifests as small areas of atelectasis (De Monte et al. 2013). By contrast, large areas of atelectasis (e.g. lobar) during anesthesia are rare, with some cases in humans attributed to reflex bronchoconstriction…
Originally Published hereThis study describes the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics, including antinociceptive effects, of a transdermal buprenorphine solution in horses. It was hypothesized that transdermal application would lead to sustained blood concentrations and antinociceptive effects with fewer adverse effects compared with intravenous (IV) injection.
Originally Published hereTo compare the effects of constant rate infusions (CRI) of fentanyl or dexmedetomidine, combined with lidocaine and ketamine, on cardiovascular response during surgery, sevoflurane requirement and postoperative pain in dogs undergoing mastectomy.
Originally Published hereTo investigate the effect of three different doses of oral pregabalin on minimum alveolar concentration of isoflurane (MACISO) in cats.
Originally Published herePerianaesthetic airway foreign bodies in small animals are rare, with reports limited to broken endotracheal tubes that have been aspirated during recovery from anaesthesia (Nutt et al. 2014; Niimura del Barrio et al. 2015). In humans, some anaesthesia-related airway foreign bodies, such as broken pieces from anaesthetic equipment (e.g. a piece of intubation stylet, a…
Originally Published hereTo compare the efficacy of lidocaine administered intravenously, intranasally or as an infraorbital nerve block in dogs undergoing rostral rhinoscopy.
Originally Published hereTo compare changes in oesophageal (T-Oeso) and rectal (T-Rec) temperature in dogs during general anaesthesia and premedicated with fentanyl, medetomidine–fentanyl or acepromazine–fentanyl.
Originally Published hereQuantitative imaging analysis software programs play an important role in biomedical research, serving as indispensable tools for manipulating images to mitigate variations during data analyses. Despite their widespread use, the existing literature lacks comprehensive information regarding the validity and reproducibility of these programs (Miura & Nørrelykke 2021). ImageJ software was created by Wayne…
Originally Published hereTo identify physiological variables for objectively detecting nociception indicative of intraoperative peripheral nerve block failure.
