Influence of acepromazine on the cardiovascular actions of dobutamine in isoflurane-anesthetized horses

Abstract: The influence of acepromazine (ACP) on the effectiveness of dobutamine (DBT) in increasing blood pressure during isoflurane (ISO) anesthesia was evaluated in six horses

“…Their cardiovascular effects vary among the different sedatives; the most common changes observed for acepromazine include a decrease in arterial blood pressure as a consequence of blockade of alpha-1 (a1) adrenergic receptors, leading to vasodilation (Ludders et al 1983), which becomes more intense during inhalant anesthesia (Grasso 2015). After premedication with acepromazine, dogs require higher doses of dopamine to increase pressures (Monteiro et al 2007), and the effects of a bolus of dextran or lactated ringer's and an ephedrine CRI were minimized by acepromazine in dogs (Sinclair & Dyson 2000), whereas it didn't influence the rate of dobutamine to keep normal pressures in horses (Monteiro et al 2011). It produces sedation through inhibition of central dopaminergic receptors, mainly at the D2 subtype, which are pre-and postsynaptic G-protein coupled receptors that when blocked decrease the calcium and potassium conductance.…”
