“…The rectal temperature and respiration rate values in both the groups were similar before injecting anaesthetic. These values also matched well with the values reported by several workers in normal goats [ 3 , 12 , 23 ]. However, higher values were reported in another study [ 19 ].…”

“…In ruminants, regurgitation and aspiration of ruminal contents or saliva into the lungs precludes the use of general anaesthesia [ 1 , 2 ]. Epidural regional anaesthesia, being comparatively safe [ 3 ], is therefore the most frequently used technique before undertaking diagnostic, obstetrical, and surgical interventions particularly in sheep and goats [ 3 , 4 ]. Easy availability at low price, lack of drug residues, excellent analgesia, and muscle relaxation are the additional advantages [ 2 ].…”

Goats (n = 12) undergoing laparoscopy assisted embryo transfer were randomly allotted to two groups (I and II) and injected same volume of ropivacaine hydrochloride at 1.0 mg/kg and 0.5 mg/kg body weight, respectively, at the lumbosacral epidural space. The hind quarters of all the animals were lifted up for the first 3.0 minutes following injection. Immediately after induction the animals were restrained in dorsal recumbency in Trendelenburg position in a cradle. Laparoscopy was performed after achieving pneumoperitoneum using filtered room air. Regional analgesia and changes in physiological parameters were recorded. The mean induction time in animals of group I (n = 6) was 12.666 ± 1.994 minutes. In these animals the analgesia extended up to the umbilical region and lasted for 60 minutes. Only two animals in group II were satisfactorily induced in 11.333 ± 2.333 minutes. In animals of group I, the time taken for regaining the full motor power was significantly long (405 ± 46.314 min) when compared to group II goats (95 ± 9.219 min). From this study it was concluded that ropivacaine did not produce adequate analgesia in most of the goats at 0.5 mg/kg. When used at 1.0 mg/kg, it produced satisfactory regional analgesia lasting for one hour but the prolonged motor loss precludes its use. Additional studies using ropivacaine hydrochloride at doses in between the two extremes used here may be undertaken before recommending it for lumbosacral anaesthesia in goats undergoing laparoscopy.

“…All the physiological parameter values in goats included in both the groups were always in accordance with the species specifi c normal range (15,18,25,26). The rectal temperature and respiration rate values showed non-significant increase, but significant increase in the heart rate was recorded up to 150 min in animals form both the groups following epidural injection of the anaesthetic.…”

Goats (n=12) undergoing laparoscopy assisted embryo transfer were randomly allotted to two groups (I and II) and injected lignocaine hydrochloride (4mg/kg) or ropivacaine hydrochloride (1mg/kg) at the lumbosacral epidural space. The animals were held with raised hind quarters for the first three minutes following injection. Immediately after induction of regional anaesthesia, they were restrained in dorsal recumbency in the Trendelenburg position in a cradle. Laparoscopy was performed after creating pneumoperitoneum using filtered room air. The mean (± S.E) induction time in animals of group I was significantly shorter (5.33 ± 0.61 min) than those belonging to group II (12.66 ±1.99 min). Complete analgesia developed throughout the hind quarters and abdomen for 30 min and 60 min in group I and II animal’s respectively. Unlike animals of group I, group II goats continued to show moderate analgesia for 180 minutes. The motor activity returned after a lapse of 130.00 ± 12.64 min and 405.00 ± 46.31 min respectively. Occasional vocalization and struggling was noticed in two goats one from each group irrespective of the surgical manipulations during laparoscopy. The rectal temperature and respiration rates showed only non-significant increase, but the heart rate values were significantly higher (P < 0.5) up to 150 min in animals of both the groups when compared to their baseline values. From this study, it was concluded that both anaesthetic agents produced satisfactory regional anaesthesia in goats undergoing laparoscopy. However, considering the very long delay in regaining the hind limb motor activity, the use of ropivacaine may not be recommended for this purpose. Supplementation of sedative/tranquilizer with lumbosacral epidural anaesthesia needs evaluation.

“…The left flank region of each goat in the FA group was prepared for routine aseptic surgery by clipping the hairs around the proposed surgical site; the site was scrubbed with Purit solution containing chlorhexidine gluconate B. P. 0.3% W/V (Saro Lifecare Limited, Lagos, Nigeria) and rinsed with methylated spirit (Binji Pharmaceutical Company, Sokoto, Nigeria). Regional anesthesia was achieved with plain lignocaine hydrochloride and lignocaine injection B. P. 2% (Sahib Singh Agencies, Mumbai, India) at 4 mg kg −1 through lumbosacral epidural anaesthesia as described by [ 13 ]. The epidural space was identified by loss of resistance to injection of 1 mL of air after piercing the ligamentum flavum.…”

The aim of the study was to compare two laparotomy approaches (flank and midventral). Ten (n = 10) apparently healthy goats of different breeds and sex, average age of 12 ± 2.1 months, and average weight of 13.4 ± 2 kg were used for the investigation. The goats were randomly divided into flank and midventral groups, each group comprising five goats (n = 5). Standard aseptic laparotomy was performed under lumbosacral epidural anaesthesia with mild sedation. Postsurgical wound score showed significant difference (P < 0.05) in erythema at 18–24 hours and 10–14 days after surgery between the two approaches; significant difference of dehiscence between the two groups was also recorded at 10–14 days after surgery. Total white blood cells (WBC) and lymphocytes counts were significantly different (P < 0.05) at the first and second week after surgery. There was significant difference of platelets critical value and platelets dimension width at the first and second week after surgery. Significant difference of packed cells volume between the two approaches was also recorded one week after surgery. It was concluded that midventral laparotomy approach can be conveniently and safely performed under aseptic precautions without fear of intra- and postoperative clinical problems.
