Effects of an alveolar recruitment maneuver on cardiovascular and respiratory parameters during total intravenous anesthesia in ponies

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate pulmonary and cardiovascular effects of a recruitment maneuver (RM) combined with positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) during total intravenous anesthesia in ponies. ANIMALS: 6 healthy adult Shetland ponies. PROCEDURE: After premedication with detomidine (10 microg/kg, IV), anesthesia was induced with climazolam (0.06 mg/kg, IV) and ketamine (2.2 mg/kg, IV) and maintained with a constant rate infusion of detomidine (0.024 mg/kg/h), climazolam (0.036 mg/kg/h), and ketamine (2.4 mg/kg/h). The RM was preceded by an incremental PEEP titration and followed by a decremental PEEP titration, both at a constant airway pressure difference (deltaP) of 20 cm H2O. The RM consisted of a stepwise increase in deltaP by 25, 30, and 35 cm H2O obtained by increasing peak inspiratory pressure (PIP) to 45, 50, and 55 cm H2O, while maintaining PEEP at 20 cm H2O. Hemodynamic and pulmonary variables were analyzed at every step of the PEEP titration-RM. RESULTS: During the PEEP titration-RM, there was a significant increase in PaO 2 (+12%), dynamic compliance (+ 62%), and heart rate (+17%) and a decrease in shunt (-19%) and mean arterial blood pressure (-21%) was recorded. Cardiac output remained stable. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Although baseline oxygenation was high, Pa(O2) and dynamic compliance further increased during the RM. Despite the use of high PIP and PEEP and a high tidal volume, limited cardiovascular compromise was detected. A PEEP titration-RM may be used to improve oxygenation in anesthetized ponies. During stable hemodynamic conditions, PEEP titration-RM can be performed with acceptable adverse cardiovascular effects.

Total intravenous anaesthesia in ponies using detomidine, ketamine and guaiphenesin: Pharmacokinetics, cardiopulmonary and endocrine effects

Pharmacokinetics and some pharmacological effects of anaesthesia induced by a combination of detomidine, ketamine and guaiphenesin were investigated in eight ponies. Cardiopulmonary function was studied and plasma met-enkephalin, dynorphin, β-endorphin; arginine vasopressin, adrenocorticotrophin, cortisol, 11-deoxycortisol and catecholamine concentrations were measured. The combination produced slight cardiorespiratory depression, hyperglycaemia and a reduction in haematocrit. There were no changes in plasma opioids, pituitary peptides or catecholamines. Plasma cortisol concentration decreased and plasma 11-deoxycortisol increased indicating a suppression of steroidogenesis. Steady state ketamine and guaiphenesin concentrations were attained during the infusion period, and ketamine concentrations likely to provide adequate analgesia for surgical operations were achieved (more than 2.2 μg ml-1). Steady state detomidine concentration was not attained. The ponies took on average 68 minutes to recover to standing and the recovery was uneventful.

Comparación del tiempo de despertar y tiempo de descarga entre dos técnicas de anestesia total intravenosa manual : Remifentanil vs Fentanil.

Introducción: A pesar de que las combinaciones de Propofol y opioides son ampliamente usadas para inducir y mantener una adecuada anestesia y analgesia, disminuir la dosis del inductor, incrementar la estabilidad hemodinámica y suprimir la respuesta a la laringoscopia y la intubación; no existen estudios que comparen el uso de Anestesia Total Intravenosa manual con Remifentanil - Propofol versus Fentanil - Propofol. Objetivo: Comparar el tiempo de despertar y el tiempo de descarga entre dos técnicas de Anestesia Total Intravenosa manual empleadas en el Hospital Occidente de Kennedy, una basada en Propofol y Remifentanil y otra basada en Propofol y Fentanil controlado por Stangraf. Metodología: Estudio de corte transversal, en 43 pacientes llevados a cirugía bajo Anestesia Total Intravenosa en el Hospital Occidente de Kennedy. Se analizó la información mediante las pruebas de Shapiro-Wilks, t de Student y U de Mann Withney y los coeficientes de correlación de Spearman y de Pearson, usando SPSS versión 20 para Windows. Un valor de p < 0.05 fue aceptado como estadísticamente significativo. Resultados: Al comparar las dos técnicas, no se encontraron diferencias estadísticamente significativas en los tiempos evaluados. El tiempo de despertar promedio fue 10,1 minutos para Fentanil y 10,2 minutos para Remifentanil. El tiempo de descarga para Fentanil fue 11,9 minutos y para Remifentanil fue 11,5 minutos. Conclusiones: El uso de Fentanil - Propofol guiado por Stangraf es equivalente al uso de Remifentanil – Propofol en cuanto a los tiempos de despertar y de descarga. Se requieren nuevos estudios para corroborar estos hallazgos.

Existen diferencias farmacocinéticas y tiempos de despertar entre mujeres y hombres con anestesia total intravenosa

Introducción: La anestesia total intravenosa (TIVA) es ampliamente usada y reportada en la literatura como técnica para disminuir la respuesta a la laringoscopia e intubación, en la inducción y mantenimiento de una adecuada anestesia, además de una mejor estabilidad hemodinámica y recuperación pos anestésica; sin embargo no existen un gran número de estudios que comparen el uso de TIVA, determinando si existen diferencias en el perfil farmacocinético según el género del paciente. Objetivo: Describir diferencias farmacocinéticas y de los tiempos de despertar y salida a la unidad de cuidados pos anestésicos (descarga), según el género; en pacientes que reciben TIVA, con remifentanil y propofol, orientado por Stangraf. Metodología: Estudio observacional analítico de corte transversal, en pacientes llevados a cirugía bajo TIVA en el Hospital Occidente de Kennedy en el periodo de junio de 2013 a Enero de 2014.Usando SPSS versión 20 Windows, se analizaron los datos mediante pruebas Kolmogorov-Smirnov y Shapiro-Wilk y U de Mann Withney. Un valor de p menor 0.05 fue aceptado como estadísticamente significativo. Resultados: Se aplicaron pruebas de normalidad y no se encontraron diferencias estadísticamente significativas entre género. El tiempo de despertar fue 9.36 minutos para mujeres y 11.26 minutos para hombres. Los tiempos de descarga fueron 10.71 minutos para mujeres y 12.82 minutos para hombres. Discusión. El tiempo de despertar y descarga no es diferente entre mujeres y hombres en los pacientes analizados. Se requieren estudios adicionales entre grupos poblacionales de diversas condiciones farmacocineticas para corroborar los datos.

Effect of intravenous propofol and remifentanil on heart rate, blood pressure and nociceptive response in acepromazine premedicated dogs

ObjectiveTo investigate the cardiorespiratory, nociceptive and endocrine effects of the combination of propofol and remifentanil, in dogs sedated with acepromazine.Study designProspective randomized, blinded, cross-over experimental trial.AnimalsTwelve healthy adult female cross-breed dogs, mean weight 18.4 +/- 2.3 kg.MethodsDogs were sedated with intravenous (IV) acepromazine (0.05 mg kg-1) followed by induction of anesthesia with IV propofol (5 mg kg-1). Anesthesia was maintained with IV propofol (0.2 mg kg-1 minute-1) and remifentanil, infused as follows: R1, 0.125 mu g kg-1 minute-1; R2, 0.25 mu g kg-1 minute-1; and R3, 0.5 mu g kg-1 minute-1. The same dogs were administered each dose of remifentanil at 1-week intervals. Heart rate (HR), mean arterial pressure (MAP), respiratory rate (f(R)), end tidal CO(2) (Pe'CO(2)), arterial hemoglobin O(2) saturation, blood gases, and rectal temperature were measured before induction, and 5, 15, 30, 45, 60, 75, 90, and 120 minutes after beginning the infusion. Nociceptive response was investigated by electrical stimulus (50 V, 5 Hz and 10 ms). Blood samples were collected for plasma cortisol measurements. Statistical analysis was performed by anova (p < 0.05).ResultsIn all treatments, HR decreased during anesthesia with increasing doses of remifentanil, and increased significantly immediately after the end of infusion. MAP remained stable during anesthesia (72-98 mmHg). Antinociception was proportional to the remifentanil infusion dose, and was considered satisfactory only with R2 and R3. Plasma cortisol concentration decreased during anesthesia in all treatments. Recovery was smooth and fast in all dogs.Conclusions and clinical relevanceInfusion of 0.25-0.5 mu g kg-1 minute-1 remifentanil combined with 0.2 mg kg-1 minute-1 propofol produced little effect on arterial blood pressure and led to a good recovery. The analgesia produced was sufficient to control the nociceptive response applied by electrical stimulation, suggesting that it may be appropriate for performing surgery.

Anestesia total intravenosa (ATI) para herniorrafias umbilicais em bezerros

The total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA) is an option for some surgeries in bovines for fields. The aim of this study was to evaluate blood gases effects, cardiorespiratory and glycemia on calves submitted the umbilical herniorraphy. We used eight calves aged from 9 ± 4 months, weighting 111 ± 43 kg. The animals were pre-treated with xylazine (0.05 mg/kg IV) and after 15 minutes was administered ketamine (2.0 mg/kg IV) followed by the continuous infusion of xylazine (0.05 mg/ml), guaifenesin (50 mg/mL) and ketamine (1mg/ml) at a rate of infusion of 2mL/kg/hour. The blood gases and glucose samples were collected immediately before the MPA (MB) and the 5, 40 and 80 after the starting of TIVA (M5, M40 e M80). The other variables were measured in MB, 15 minutes after the MPA (Mx) and every 10 minutes after the starting of TIVA, entiring 80 minutes. The heart rate was higher in MB than in the other stages (p <0.05) and respiratory rate increased in M20 and M50 compared to MB and Mx (p <0.05). The PvCO2 increased while PaO2 decreased in M40 and M80, for MB (p <0.05), PVCO2 in M80 was lower than in MB (p <0.05). The pHv was smaller in M80 than M5 and MB (p <0.05), and HCO3 was lower in MB (p <0.05) compared to the others. The glucose was higher in M40 and M80 and M5 for MB (p <0.05). The recovery time was 152 ± 60 minutes after the end of the administration of the infusion of anesthetics. It was conclude that the anesthetic technique employed promoted respiratory depression, increased blood glucose and prolonged period of anesthetic recovery in calves.
