Prior to sedation; give .. (4)
Antimicrobials
Anti-inflammatories
IV. Catheter in jugular vein
Flushing the oral cavity with tap water
Drugs for premedication (4)
Phenothiaxines (Acepromazine)
Alpha2 adrenergic drug
Opioids (never alone, cause excitement)
Benzodiazepines (young foals)
Combinations of premedications (4)
o Alpha2- agonists
o Alpha2agonists + Phenothiazine/opioid
o Phenothiazine + alpha2- agonist/ + opioid
o Benzodiazepine (neonates)
Drugs for induction
Ketamine
Guaiphenesin (GGE)
Barbiturates (thiopental – best choice (short acting))
Propofol
Example of premedication (4)
- Ketamine + Diazepam
- GGe: + Ketamin or + thiopental
- Tiletamine + zolazepam, not narcotic drug
- Propofol
- Inhalational anestetics (foal)
Maintanance of an (3)
LEARN THE INFO
TIVA (total intravenous anesthesia)
Inhalational anesthesia
PIVA (Partial intravenous anesthesia) (balanced an.)
TIVA advantages/disadv
ADV:
* Less depression on cardioresp.
* TIVA stress < inhalation anesthesia
* Good analgesia
* Less complication/mortality
* Nice recovery
* Min. tissue toxicity
DISADV.:
* drug accumulation, infusion pump is needed
* Methods of drug delivery:
o Intermittent injection (bolus)
o Drip technique (infusion/syringe pump) – continus infusion
TIVA 2 groups
1ST GROUP: SHORT ANESTHESIA (<30 MINS)
Alpha2-agonist (1/4 dose) + dissociative anesthesia (1/2 dose) –> 5-10 min
Thiopental
2ND GROUP: MID LONG ANESTHESIA (30-60 MINS)
Hypoxia can develop, give extra O2, Boluses/CRI (continuous rate infusion)
TIVA combinations (3)
- Triple drip in CRI
- GGE 5% + xylazine + ketamine
- Ketamine + Xylazine + diazepam
Inhalation an
- Adv/disadv
- Drugs
ADV:
* Depth can be changed rapidly
* Can be monitored
* Min. drug accumulation
* Elimination is ventilation dependent
DISADV:
* Pollution
* Cardiorespiratory depression
* Min. analgesia
* Expensive
* Recovery is not as good as TIVA
MAC- minimal alveolar concentration
1. Isoflurane (MAC: 1.31%)
2. Sevoflurane (MAC: 2.31%)
3. Desflurane (MAC: 7.6%)
PIVA
Combined use of inhalational and intravenous anesthesia
Adv/disadv
ADV.
* Cardiorespiratory depression decrease (MAC decr.)
* Analgesia increase
* Organ toxicity decrease
* Movement decrease
* Recovery increase
* Mortality decrease
* Muscle-relaxing effects of inhalational anesthesia
DISADV.
* Pollution
* Cardiovascular depression ßinhalation drugs
* Equipment: IV + inhalation drugs
* Long procedures
IV drugs accumulation
PIVA - drugs (5)
- Ketamine
- Alpha2-agonist:
- medetomidine
- Romifidine
- Xylazine - Ketamine + alpha2-agonists
- Lidocaine – colic patients in continuous iv drip
- Lidocane + ketamine - approx. 60% - colic patients
Fluid loss - replacement
Replace fluid loss: 5-10 ml/kg/h
Methods to decrease surgical stress (3)
- Increase tissue perfusion: avoid hypotension, hypovolemia (circulatory system)
- Local anesthesia: prevent nociceptive signals to CNS
- Butorphanol: decrease cortisol response
Recovery
Use of part-dose of alpha2-agonists in recovery, keep in lateral recumbency, dark, quiet box, urethral catheters
Complications and emergencies (8)
- Cardiopulmonary resuscitation
- Anaphylaxis
- Intraoperative hypotension
- Hypoxemia and hypoxia
- Hypercapnia
- Postoperative myopathy
- Postoperative neuropathy
- Postoperative laryngeal oedema
Resuscitation drugs (4)
Vasoconstriction - epinephrine
Positive ionotrop - dobutamine
Vagolytic - atropine
Ventricular tachycardia - lidocain
