“…The incidence of bradyarrhythmia, sinus pause and different types of heart block varies inversely with mean HR in healthy conscious dogs and during the peri‐anaesthetic period in dogs premedicated with DMED (Ulloa et al. 1995; Kuusela et al. 2002; Lin et al.…”

Animals considered to be painful received rescue analgesia and were allocated to a post-rescue protocol; animals which were unresponsive to rescue analgesia were removed from the study. Data were analysed with anova, two-sample t-tests or Chi-square tests. Time to intervention was analysed with Kaplan-Meier methodology. RESULTS: Forty dogs were enrolled. Twenty dogs (9 DMED and 11 MOR) did not require rescue analgesia. Eleven DMED and eight MOR dogs were allocated to the postrescue protocol and seven of these removed from the study. Significant differences in pain scores between groups were not observed during the first 12 hours, however, DMED dogs were less (p = 0.009) painful during the last 12 hours. Sedation score over the entire 24-hour study was not significantly different between groups. CONCLUSION / CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Dexmedetomidine CRI was equally effective as MOR CRI at providing postoperative analgesia and no clinically significant adverse reactions were noted. This study shows the potential of DMED to contribute to a balanced postoperative analgesia regimen in dogs. PMID: 19470144 [PubMed -indexed for MEDLINE]

“…After arrival at the clinic, and after a brief physical examination, an ambulatory ECG recorder (Marquette 8500 series; Marquette Electronics, Inc., Milwaukee, WI, USA) was fitted to the dog. The equipment used was the same as has been described in detail elsewhere (Kuusela et al. 2002).…”
