ABSTRACT. We studied cardiovascular effects of isoflurane in chickens during controlled ventilation. Following the determination of the minimal anesthetic concentration from the response to clamping of a digit, dose-related effect of isoflurane on heart rate and arterial pressure were studied. The minimal anesthetic concentration of isoflurane was 1.25 ± 0.13% (mean ± SD, n=9). There was a dosedependent decrease in arterial pressure. The heart rate did not change significantly over a range of 1 to 2 times the minimal anesthetic concentration.-KEY WORDS: anesthesia, bird, isoflurane.
Percutaneous popliteal lymph node administration of iohexol should be considered as an alternative to mesenteric lymph node injection for radiographic identification of the thoracic duct in dogs.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
