“…In particular, the decrease in the isoflurane group was significant from the 5th min of the anesthesia, compared to the baseline value, whereas it was significant from the 10th min of the anesthesia in the sevoflurane group. These findings were similar to previous studies, where body temperature was reported to decrease in buffalos [6], dogs [9], goats [22] and camels [2] after isoflurane anesthesia, and in dogs [9], cattle [14] and goats [22] after sevoflurane anesthesia. In the current study, regarding body temperature, there were no significant differences between isoflurane and sevoflurane anesthesia.…”

Background: Inhalation anesthesia is the preferred method for use on many animal species, including ruminants, due to its superiority over the injectable anesthetics. The most commonly used inhalation anesthetics are isoflurane and sevoflurane The aim of the study was to investigate the effects of isoflurane and sevoflurane anesthesia on the cardiovascular system of calves. Materials, Methods & Results:A total of 20 calves (11 male, 9 female) between 1 and 6 months in age and 50 to 85 kg in body weight were used. The calves were divided randomly into two groups of 10 each, with one group being administered isoflurane and the other sevoflurane. An intramuscular dosage of 0.1 mg/kg of xylazine was administered to the calves as premedication. Induction was performed 10 min after calves were given an intramuscular dosage of 4 mg/kg of ketamine. Inhalation anesthesia was maintained with isoflurane or sevoflurane in 100% oxygen saturation. Before anesthesia, after induction and at intervals of 5,10,15,20,25,30, 45, and 60 min of anesthesia, the body temperature, heart rate, and respiratory rate of the calves were recorded. Additionally, before anesthesia, after induction and at intervals of 15, 30, 45, and 60 min of anesthesia, serum electrolyte (Na

“…In the present study, there was no significant difference in plasma electrolyte concentrations during propofol-halothane anesthesia in all groups, which indicated that electrolyte balance is not altered. Halothane has been reported not to cause any significant alteration in the level of plasma sodium and potassium in buffaloes also [25].…”

Aim:The purpose of this study was to compare the electrocardiographic (ECG), hematological and clinico-biochemical effects of two balanced anesthetic protocols in dogs. Materials and Methods:A total of 20 clinical cases of dogs, randomly divided into two groups of 10 animals each were made part of study. All dogs were premedicated with injection atropine sulfate @ 0.04 mg/kg body weight (b. wt.) subcutaneously followed 15 min later with injection butorphanol tartarate @ 0.2 mg/kg b. wt. intravenous (IV). Subsequently after 10 min premedicated with injection diazepam @ 0.5 mg/kg b. wt. IV (Group DP) or injection acepromazine maleate @ 0.015 mg/kg b. wt. IV (Group AP) followed by injection propofol "till effect" IV for induction of surgical anesthesia. The animals were immediately transferred to halothane in oxygen. Observations recorded in dogs included ECG recordings, hematological and clinico-biochemical observations at various time intervals.Results: No arrhythmia was observed in any animal pre-operatively and intra-operatively in any of the groups. Significant fall in packed cell volume (PCV) and total erythrocyte count occurred in DP group in early phase, whereas only PCV decreased significantly in AP group. Biochemical parameters were non-significant in both the groups. Conclusion:Both diazepam-butorphanol-propofol-halothane and acepromazine-butorphanol-propofol-halothane are safe with respect to their ECG, hematological and biochemical effects in clinical cases.

“…A combination of physical restraint, sedation and local or regional anaesthesia is mostly used for basic surgical procedures in large ruminants [ 24 ]. In more complex surgeries, general anaesthesia is preferred because it maximises effectiveness and safety; nevertheless, general anaesthesia can lead to complications, such as regurgitation, tympanism and aspiration pneumonia [ 18 , 25 , 26 , 27 ].…”

“…Moreover, general anaesthesia can suppress autonomic reflex activities and consequently induce dose-dependent cardiovascular and respiratory depression [ 28 ]. To reduce the risk of these complications, inhaled anaesthesia is recommended, as it allows quicker changes in anaesthetic depth and lesser risk of overdosing compared to injectable anaesthesia [ 24 ]. In this study, we selected isoflurane, as it offers faster recovery from anaesthesia and less cardiovascular, respiratory and haemodynamic depression than halothane in water buffaloes [ 24 ].…”

Castration is one of the most frequently performed surgical procedures in livestock. All methods of castration are associated with a significant degree of pain, affecting the patients’ welfare. Limited information on species-specific protocols in buffaloes is available. Considering the importance of this species and the scarcity of reports available, the objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of two different intramuscular doses of xylazine for premedication in water buffalo calves undergoing isoflurane maintenance anaesthesia for routine castration surgery. Twenty clinically healthy male water buffaloes undergoing bilateral orchiectomy were randomly assigned to two groups of 10 animals each: Group 1 was premedicated with xylazine 0.1 mg/kg bw i.m. and Group 2 was premedicated with xylazine 0.15 mg/kg bw i.m. Anaesthesia was induced by ketamine (2 mg/kg bw i.v.) and maintained with isoflurane-oxygen-air in both groups. The HR, RR, presence/absence of ataxia, sedation, depth of anaesthesia, muscle relaxation status, response to acoustic and tactile stimuli, eyelid reflex, extent of salivation and stimulus were evaluated every 5 min. Both protocols provided consistent sedation and were safe. Faster and more satisfactory sedation was recorded when xylazine was administered at 0.15 mg/kg bw i.m., leading us to recommend this dose for buffalo orchiectomy.
