Abstract

A microcomputer type 6502 is the central unity of a volatile anaesthetic injector for use in a closed circuit breathing system. Estimated calculations for quantity of anaesthetic liquid are done in agreement with the formula of J.W. Severinghaus and H. Lowe. Clinical assay is realised with enflurane. The syringe efficacy is controlled by permanent recorder of halogenate concentration in upper airways Fi-FA: infrared analysor cosma Rubis 3000).

Actions of isoflurane and halothane in pregnant mares.

Eighteen healthy, pregnant mares scheduled for laparotomy and uterine manipulation were randomly allotted to 2 equal groups. After IV administration of xylazine hydrochloride and thiamylal sodium, general anesthesia was maintained with halothane (HALO) or isoflurane (ISO) in oxygen. Results of cardiovascular measurements were similar with both inhalant anesthetics; mean arterial blood pressure was 79 and 82 mm of Hg with HALO and ISO, respectively. Respiratory rate decreased most with ISO (mean frequency was 4 and 9 breaths/min with ISO and HALO, respectively). Partial pressure of arterial CO2 was increased similarly with HALO and ISO. Partial pressure of arterial O2 varied greatly among mares and decreased with duration of use of both anesthetics. Recovery time from anesthesia was significantly (P < 0.05) shorter after use of ISO vs HALO. Minor superficial injuries were associated with recovery from both anesthetics (in 5 mares with ISO and in 1 mare with HALO). Physical signs of postanesthetic myopathy or vital-organ dysfunction were not associated with either agent.

Postsurgical ventricular tachycardia in a horse.

A 2-year-old Thoroughbred racehorse developed ventricular tachycardia after elective laryngoplasty and ventriculectomy were performed while anesthesia was maintained with halothane. During surgery, the horse became febrile and developed transient mild hypercarbia. The horse was treated with an IV infusion of quinidine gluconate. Continuous electrocardiographic monitoring was used to evaluate cardiac rhythm during treatment, and conversion was achieved after 12 hours of IV infusion. The inciting cause for the arrhythmia was not determined.
