The study was carried out to evaluate propofol and ketamine CRI in dexmedetomidine and butorphanol pre-medicated dogs undergoing elective ovariohysterectomy. Animals were randomly divided into two Groups (A and B) comprising six animals in each. All the animals were administered glycopyrrolate @ 0.01 mg/kg IM. Fifteen minutes later dexmedetomidine 5µg/kg IV and butorphanol 0.1mg/kg IV and two minutes later induction and maintenance of anaesthesia was done with propofol in Group A and ketamine in Group B. The mean induction times (Sec) in Group A and B were recorded as 34.67 ± 2.12 and 36.67±1.63, respectively. The induction doses of propofol and ketamine were recorded as 0.68± 0.06 and 2.63±0.26 mg/kg, respectively. The recovery time were recorded as 10.25±0.44 and 14.83±1.26 min in Group A and B, respectively. The maintenance dose of propofol and ketamine for CRI were recorded as 0.24±0.01 and 0.013±0.60 mg/kg/min, respectively in Group A and B. Quality of anaesthesia was excellent in both the group and the clinical parameters remained with the physiological limit.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
