Cardiovascular effects of thiopental-sevoflurane compared with thiopental-isoflurane in angora goats undergoing ovariectomy
Abstract
Aim: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of inhalation anaesthetics on cardiovascular functions in 16 healthy female Angora goats undergoing ovariectomy. Material and Methods: Anaesthesia was induced with thiopental sodium then maintained with isoflurane or sevoflurane in oxygen. Cardiovascular parameters were measured before and at 0, 15th, 30th, 60th and 90th minutes after induction of anaesthesia. Recovery variables including time to extubation, first lift of the head, thoracic recumbency and standing up were also recorded.
Results: The mean induction dose of thiopental was 18.23 ± 3.87 mg / kg. There were no significant differences between groups for heart rate (HR), respiration rate (RR), noninvasive blood pressure and body temperature measured prior to and under anaesthesia. All animals recovered uneventfully in both groups.
Conclusion: There were no statistical differences between groups for their cardiovascular parameters and recovery times although the results of this study showed a rapid recovery time in each parameter for sevoflurane anaesthesia. On the basis of the results, sevoflurane and isoflurane are suitable inhalation anaesthetics in goats.
