“…Five publications were classified as "surveys" [67][68][69][70][71]. Johnston et al, (1995) evidenced that the likelihood of death was increased in longer anaesthesias, in emergency colics, during out of hours, in orthopaedics requiring internal fixation or in mares in the last trimester of pregnancy [67].…”

“…The survey conducted by Schrimpf et al, (2011) focussed exclusively on recovery systems used after osteosynthesis, and concluded that head and tail ropes as the most frequently used method to assist recovery in these horses (54%) [69]. A recent online survey collected data concerning current practice of recovering horses and recovery personnel safety [71]. Worldwide practitioners from 22 countries completed 373 questionnaires providing interesting results which are discussed more in detail afterwards (see subheadings "drugs before/during recovery", "recovery systems" and "other factors").…”

“…Surveys showed that the majority of equine anaesthetists currently administer sedatives and/or analgesics before recovery, with alpha2-adrenergic agonists being the most commonly used drugs [68,70,71]. Sedation with alpha2-adrenergic agonists improves the recovery quality [302][303][304], an effect that seems to be dose-dependent [302,311].…”

Recovery remains the most dangerous phase of general anaesthesia in horses. The objective of this publication was to perform a structured literature review including levels of evidence (LoE) of each study with the keywords “recovery anaesthesia horse”, entered at once, in the search browsers PubMed and Web of Science. The two authors independently evaluated each candidate article. A final list with 444 articles was obtained on 5 April 2021, classified as: 41 “narrative reviews/expert opinions”, 16 “retrospective outcome studies”, 5 “surveys”, 59 “premedication/sedation and induction drugs”, 27 “maintenance with inhalant agents”, 55 “maintenance with total intravenous anaesthesia (TIVA)”, 3 “TIVA versus inhalants”, 56 “maintenance with partial intravenous anaesthesia (PIVA)”, 27 “other drugs used during maintenance”, 18 “drugs before/during recovery”, 18 “recovery systems”, 21 “respiratory system in recovery”, 41 “other factors”, 51 “case series/reports” and 6 “systems to score recoveries”. Of them, 167 were LoE 1, 36 LoE 2, 33 LoE 3, 110 LoE 4, 90 LoE 5 and 8 could not be classified based on the available abstract. This review can be used as an up-to-date compilation of the literature about recovery after general anaesthesia in adult horses that tried to minimise the bias inherent to narrative reviews.
