Evaluation of the effect of lidocaine epidural injection on immunological indices in dogs under total intravenous anesthesia submitted to ovariohysterectomy

Abstract: This study aimed to evaluate the effects of epidural anaesthesia with lidocaine in combination with general anaesthesia with propofol on some immunologic indices in dogs undergoing ovariohysterectomy. Twelve adult dogs were anesthetized with propofol (induction: 7 mg/kg; maintenance: 0.4 mg/kg/min) and were then allocated into either groups of epidural saline (control) or epidural lidocaine (4 mg/kg; treatment). All the included animals underwent ovariohysterectomy operation. The immune responses, hematologic … Show more

“…The advantage of using this route of administration is the possibility of blocking the modulation and transmission of nociceptive signals in the spinal cord, providing anaesthesia and analgesia of the dermatomes located in the caudal abdominal regions. Therefore, the epidural technique is particularly suitable for ovariectomy and ovariohysterectomy surgeries [ 55 ]. The meninges are composed of the dura mater, arachnoid membrane, and pia mater.…”
