“…1986). Bubalo et al. (2008) noticed that during ovariohysterectomy, dogs responded to surgical stimuli by increases in MAP, whereas HR and f R did not change significantly; MAP may, therefore, be a more sensitive indicator of the nociceptive response.…”

“…Propofol was chosen as the “rescue anaesthetic”, but it does not provide analgesia. Fentanyl was used as a rescue analgesic in dogs during ovariohysterectomy (Bubalo et al. 2008), presumably due to its rapid onset of action compared to other opioids.…”

“…2004; Haga & Ranheim 2005), there are no published reports of intratesticular lidocaine use in dogs. One study examined the effects of local infiltration of the canine mesovarium with lidocaine, but failed to show evidence of an additional analgesic effect during ovariohysterectomy (Bubalo et al. 2008).…”

“…Removal of ovaries is considered maximum noxious stimuli during a bitch spay [11, 25]. Attempts to reduce the noxious stimuli at removal of the ovaries by adding local anaesthetic to the mesovarium has been investigated with no proven benefit in dogs [21], while a positive effect was reported in a study in cats [39]. As results of these previous studies on local anaesthesia of the mesovarium are in conflict, further studies on targeted analgesia are needed.…”

BackgroundSurgery causes a stress response, a physiologic response to trauma. The intraoperative surgical stress response in dogs diagnosed with pyometra has not previously been described. The aim of this study was to investigate the intraoperative surgical stress response, assessed by blood pressure and heart rate measurements, in dogs diagnosed with pyometra and healthy controls. All dogs were premedicated with acepromazine and methadone, anaesthesia was induced with propofol and maintained with isoflurane, where after the dogs were subjected to ovariohysterectomy.ResultsEight dogs diagnosed with pyometra and eight healthy controls were used. Systolic blood pressure and heart rate were measured to assess the surgical stress response. Additionally propofol dosage at induction of anaesthesia and the end-tidal isoflurane concentration were investigated. The surgery was split into four phases. Phase 0 was the period 10 min before the skin incision, phase 1 was skin incision and opening of abdomen, phase 2 was manipulation of uterine horns, lifting of the ovary with stretching of the mesovarium, ligation and transection of mesovarium and phase 3 was ligation and transection of cervix, removal of organs and closing of the abdomen. Dosage of propofol at induction of anaesthesia was 3.6 ± 1 mg/kg in dogs with pyometra and 4.1 ± 1 in healthy controls (P = 0.37). In both groups, systolic blood pressure increased between phase 1 and 2, from 87 ± 15 to 114 ± 19 mmHg in dogs with pyometra, and from 88 ± 18 to 106 ± 20 mmHg in healthy controls, (both P < 0.0001). Systolic blood pressure did not differ significantly between groups in any of the phases. Heart rate and end-tidal concentration of isoflurane did not differ significantly between phases or between groups.ConclusionsThe increased blood pressure at removal of ovaries during ovariohysterectomy suggests a pronounced noxious stimulus at this part of the procedure. In principle, the study parameters and response to surgery did not differ significantly between dogs with pyometra and healthy controls.

“…Conversely, incisional infiltration of the linea alba with lidocaine 1% (2 mg/kg) and anaesthesia of the mesovarium (0.5 mL of lidocaine 2%) did not blunt autonomic responses to surgery (Bubalo et al . ). Furthermore, two other studies did not show any benefits of incisional anaesthesia in dogs undergoing ovariohysterectomy either because the technique was administered as part of multimodal analgesia (Epstein et al .…”

The World Small Animal Veterinary Association Global Pain Council (WSAVA‐GPC) has recently published its first “capsule review” by Monteiro et al. These are short articles that present a brief assessment of the scientific evidence and practical recommendations on important, and sometimes controversial, subjects in pain management. The capsules will be published regularly in the Journal of Small Animal Practice, the official journal of the WSAVA. This second article discusses the use of intraperitoneal and incisional analgesia in small animal practice, including their limitations and recommendations by the authors.
