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.
Originally Published hereTo compare respiratory system compliance (CRS), expressed per kilogram of bodyweight (CRSBW), calculated without end-inspiratory pause (EIP) and after three EIP times (0.2, 0.5 and 1 seconds) with that after 3 second EIP (considered the reference EIP for static CRS) and to determine the EIP times that provided CRSBW values in acceptable agreement…
Originally Published hereA male castrated Border Terrier, aged 8 years and weighing 10.1 kg, underwent general anaesthesia for a right middle lung lobectomy via a lateral thoracotomy after diagnosis of a pulmonary carcinoma.
Originally Published hereTo compare the analgesic effect of a bilateral ultrasound-guided erector spinae plane block (ESPB) in dogs undergoing hemilaminectomy using either a low-volume high-concentration (LV-HC) or a high-volume low-concentration (HV-LC) local anaesthetic solution.
Originally Published hereTo evaluate the effect of increased respiratory system resistance (RRS) on dynamic compliance (Cdyn) assessed by the NM3 monitor (Cdyn(NM3)) and the E-CAiOV module (Cdyn(ECAiOV)).
