“…Equine general anaesthesia carries a high risk of mortality or serious morbidity, with the recovery period being a time of particular concern [1][2][3][4][5][6] . In an attempt to identify factors that may be associated with an increased risk of death during and within 7 days of general anaesthesia, a large-scale prospective epidemiological study investigating mortality associated with equine general anaesthesia was conducted 3 .…”

“…Mortality rate for horses that have undergone surgery with general anaesthesia varies from 0.68% to 8% (Lievens, 2001;Proudman et al, 2006). Various factors related to the operation, like the treated disease, the type of operation, the choice of anaesthetic agents and the intervention/ anaesthesia duration, influence the mortality rate (Johnston et al, 2004;Proudman et al, 2006).…”

“…Various factors related to the operation, like the treated disease, the type of operation, the choice of anaesthetic agents and the intervention/ anaesthesia duration, influence the mortality rate (Johnston et al, 2004;Proudman et al, 2006). Health status, age and breed (in relation with the horses' size) of the anaesthetised animal also influence the mortality rate (Proudman et al, 2006). In addition to increased mortality risks, general anaesthesia may also produce post-operative complications, rating between 6% and 15% (Lievens, 2001;Mason et al, 2005), as for instance neuropathies, myopathy, temporary blindness or post-anaesthetic colic (Lievens, 2001;Joubert et al, 2005).…”
