The effects of pentobarbital, fentanyl-droperidol, ketamine-xylazine and ketamine-diazepam on arterial blood pH, blood gases, mean arterial blood pressure and heart rate in adult male rats

Although anesthetics are known to cause respiratory and cardiovascular depression in humans, these adverse effects rarely have been investigated in laboratory rodents. This study evaluated the effects of four different injectable drugs, pentobarbital, fentanyl-droperidol (Innovar-Vet), ketamine-xylazine and ketamine-diazepam on the respiratory and cardiovascular systems of rats. Results showed marked acidosis, hypercarbia and hypoxia with high doses of Innovar-Vet, moderate respiratory depression with all dosages of pentobarbital and minimal respiratory depression with ketamine-xylazine and ketamine-diazepam. Innovar-Vet, ketamine-xylazine and pentobarbital caused profound hypotension, particularly at high dosages, while ketamine-diazepam caused the least depression in mean arterial blood pressure of all drugs evaluated. None of the drugs studied produced significant alterations in heart rate. Throughout all dosages investigated, the ketamine-diazepam combination showed the least overall effects on ventilation and perfusion of the four parenteral drug combinations studied.     

A comparison of pentobarbital, fentanyl-droperidol, ketamine-xylazine and ketamine-diazepam anesthesia in adult male rats

Proper use of anesthetics is of paramount importance for humane animal care. Current research trends show a greater reliance on rats for laboratory investigations. This study compared several dosages for four different drugs, (pentobarbital, fentanyl-droperidol, ketamine-xylazine and ketamine-diazepam) for use in the laboratory rat. Each drug was evaluated in respect to its onset, duration of effect, recovery, adverse effects and mortality. A quantitative assessment of the depth of anesthesia also was obtained for all dosages of each drug. Results showed that all tested dosages of pentobarbital, ketamine-xylazine and ketamine-diazepam were suitable anesthetics for use in the laboratory rat. Low dosages of fentanyl-droperidol (Innovar-Vet), however, appeared to produce a state known as neuroleptanalgesia as opposed to anesthesia seen with the other agents.     

The effects of pentobarbital, fentanyl-droperidol, ketamine-xylazine and ketamine-diazepam on core and surface body temperature regulation in adult male rats

Many commonly used anesthetics cause hypothermia by inhibiting central and peripheral thermoregulatory mechanisms. Although it is probable that a loss of thermal homeostasis contributes directly to the high mortality frequently reported following anesthesia of laboratory rodents, this adverse effect has been investigated rarely in the past. This study compared the effects of three parenteral anesthetics (pentobarbital, ketamine-xylazine and ketamine-diazepam) and a neuroleptanalgesic (fentanyl-droperidol) on core and surface body temperature regulation in rats. Results showed a profound hypothermia with all dosages of pentobarbital, while ketamine-xylazine and ketamine-diazepam caused a dose-dependent depression in core and surface body temperature. All dosages of fentanyl-droperidol (Innovar-Vet) caused minimal depression in thermoregulation, suggesting that it is the drug which requires the least external thermal support. Results of this study also suggested that inability to compensate for heat loss, particularly from the body core, may profoundly influence anesthetic toxicity and the safety of anesthetic procedures.     

An evaluation of three intravenous anesthetic regimens in New Zealand rabbits

Intravenous anesthetics can be readily administered to rabbits through the marginal ear vein. In this study, three intravenous anesthetic protocols were evaluated in New Zealand White rabbits. The three anesthetic regimens were: (a) pentobarbital (40 mg/kg); (b) ketamine-xylazine (25-5 mg/kg); (c) midazolam-xylazine-alfentanil (1-1-0.1 mg/kg). The anesthetics were injected slowly over defined time intervals. Reactions to noxious stimuli were determined before and after administration of the anesthetics. Additionally, the effects of the anesthetic agents on the rabbit's cardiopulmonary system were evaluated. Rabbits anesthetized with midazolam-xylazine-alfentanil did not have a pedal withdrawal or ear pinch reflex throughout the testing period. The ketamine-xylazine combination produced a shorter duration of non-responsiveness to noxious stimuli. Rabbits anesthetized with pentobarbital had the greatest variability in response to noxious stimuli. Apnea occurred in at least one rabbit in each group. A side effect unique to the midazolam-xylazine-alfentanil group was the occurrence of opisthotonus or seizure activity during or shortly after the administration of alfentanil. Hypotension, hypercapnia and respiratory acidosis were characteristic of the cardiopulmonary effects of the anesthetics. When choosing an anesthetic regimen for rabbits, intravenous infusion should be considered as an option. Advantages include ease of administration, possibility of redosing as required, and minimal requirements for equipment. Disadvantages of intravenous anesthetic infusion in rabbits include potential for lethal overdose and metabolic alterations after administration.     

Evaluation of ketamine, ketamine-xylazine and ketamine-diazepam anesthesia in the ferret

Ketamine, ketamine-xylazine, and ketamine-diazepam were evaluated clinically in 15 ferrets, and safe dosage was determined for each. All of the three regimens provided excellent immobilization. However, muscle rigidity and incomplete analgesia were noted in ketamine alone and in ketamine-diazepam respectively. It was concluded that 25 mg/kg ketamine and 2 mg/kg xylazine intramuscularly provided acceptable analgesia, muscle relaxation, duration and smooth recovery, although cardiac arrhythmias were a concern and require careful observation.     

Effects of pentobarbital and ketamine-xylazine anaesthesia on somatosensory, brainstem auditory and peripheral sensory-motor responses in the rat.

Somatosensory, brainstem auditory evoked and peripheral sensory-motor responses were recorded in rats anaesthetized with either pentobarbital or a ketamine-xylazine combination. This was carried out in order to assess which of these agents degraded responses to a lesser extent and thus would be more suitable for monitoring experimental effects. Neither of the anaesthetic agents affected peripheral sensory or motor conduction, nor were there any interpeak latency changes of the early components of the brainstem auditory response. However, pentobarbital anaesthesia resulted in an increase in latency of the initial positive component of the somatosensory cortical evoked potential and attenuation of the following negative component. During the recovery stages of ketamine-xylazine anaesthesia the longer latency evoked potential components were observed to emerge.     

Biomechanics of musculoskeletal pain: dynamics of the neuromatrix.

Pain, due to mechanical stimuli, is a normal, indeed healthy, response of animals to potential or actual damage to tissues. Mammals in general, and humans in particular, have evolved a highly sophisticated system of pain perception, which is characterized in humans by complementary but distinct neural processing of the intensity and location of a noxious stimulus, and a motivational/emotional or affective response to the stimulus. The peripheral and central neurons that comprise this system, which has been called the 'neuromatrix', dynamically (temporally) respond and adapt to noxious biomechanical stimuli. However, phenotypic variability of the neuromatrix can be large, which can result in a host of musculoskeletal conditions that are characterized by altered pain perception, which can and often does alter the course of the condition. This neural plasticity has been well recognized in the central nervous system, but it has only more recently become known that peripheral nociceptors also adapt to their altered extracellular matrix environment. This work reviews the biomechanics of pain focusing on the relevant stimulus that initiates responses by nociceptors to the cognitive perception of pain.     

The perception of painful and nonpainful stimuli during voluntary motor activity in man

Previous studies have shown that voluntary movement diminishes the transmission of cutaneous afferent input through the dorsal column-medial lemniscal system, and also raises the threshold for detecting nonpainful, cutaneous stimuli (electrical shocks). Although there is some evidence that pain elicited by electrical stimulation is diminished during movement, no studies have tested the effect of movement on the perception of pain produced by natural stimulation. For this reason, we tested the effects of voluntary motor activity on the perception of noxious thermal stimuli in human volunteers. We first developed a motor paradigm in which the thermal stimulation could be applied to the immobile limb (isometric elbow flexion-extension). Both isometric and isotonic muscle contractions about the elbow increased the threshold for detecting weak cutaneous stimuli (electrical shocks) applied to the forearm, and to a lesser extent the detection of stimuli applied to the dorsum of the hand. Afterwards, noxious and innocuous heat stimuli were applied to the forearm during isometric contractions and at rest. Magnitude estimates for the intensity of the pain, as well as latency measures of the onset of pain, were recorded. We found no evidence that isometric motor activity diminished either the threshold for pain or the subjective intensity of the noxious and innocuous thermal stimuli. Thus, motor activity decreases the ability to detect weak low-threshold cutaneous inputs, but has no effect on the perception of warmth and heat pain.     

Effects of Anesthetics on the Renal Sympathetic Response to Anaphylactic Hypotension in Rats

The autonomic nervous system plays an important role in rat anaphylactic hypotension. It is well known that sympathetic nerve activity and cardiovascular function are affected by anesthetics. However, the effects of different types of anesthesia on the efferent renal sympathetic nerve activity (RSNA) during anaphylactic hypotension remain unknown. Therefore, we determined the renal sympathetic responses to anaphylactic hypotension in anesthetized and conscious rats and the roles of baroreceptors in these responses. Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly allocated to anesthetic groups that were given pentobarbital, urethane, or ketamine-xylazine and to a conscious group. The rats were sensitized using subcutaneously injected ovalbumin. The systemic arterial pressure (SAP), RSNA and heart rate (HR) were measured. The effects of sinoaortic baroreceptor denervation on RSNA during anaphylaxis were determined in pentobarbital-anesthetized and conscious rats. In all of the sensitized rats, the RSNA increased and SAP decreased after antigen injection. At the early phase within 35 min of the antigen injection, the antigen-induced sympathoexcitation in the conscious rats was significantly greater than that in the anesthetized rats. Anaphylactic hypotension was attenuated in the conscious rats compared to the anesthetized rats. The anesthetic-induced suppression of SAP and RSNA was greater in the order ketamine-xylazine >urethane = pentobarbital. Indeed, in the rats treated with ketamine-xylazine, RSNA did not increase until 40 min, and SAP remained at low levels after the antigen injection. The baroreceptor reflex, as evaluated by increases in RSNA and HR in response to the decrease in SAP induced by sodium nitroprusside (SNP), was suppressed in the anesthetized rats compared with the conscious rats. Consistent with this finding, baroreceptor denervation attenuated the excitatory responses of RSNA to anaphylaxis in the conscious rats but not in the pentobarbital-anesthetized rats. RSNA was increased markedly in conscious rats during anaphylactic hypotension. Anesthetics attenuated this antigen-induced renal sympathoexcitation through the suppression of baroreceptor function.     

Do fishes have nociceptors? Evidence for the evolution of a vertebrate sensory system.

Nociception is the detection of a noxious tissue-damaging stimulus and is sometimes accompanied by a reflex response such as withdrawal. Pain perception, as distinct from nociception, has been demonstrated in birds and mammals but has not been systematically studied in lower vertebrates. We assessed whether a fish possessed cutaneous nociceptors capable of detecting noxious stimuli and whether its behaviour was sufficiently adversely affected by the administration of a noxious stimulus. Electrophysiological recordings from trigeminal nerves identified polymodal nociceptors on the head of the trout with physiological properties similar to those described in higher vertebrates. These receptors responded to mechanical pressure, temperatures in the noxious range (more than 40 degrees C) and 1% acetic acid, a noxious substance. In higher vertebrates nociceptive nerves are either A-delta or C fibres with C fibres being the predominating fibre type. However, in the rainbow trout A-delta fibres were most common, and this offers insights into the evolution of nociceptive systems. Administration of noxious substances to the lips of the trout affected both the physiology and the behaviour of the animal and resulted in a significant increase in opercular beat rate and the time taken to resume feeding, as well as anomalous behaviours. This study provides significant evidence of nociception in teleost fishes and furthermore demonstrates that behaviour and physiology are affected over a prolonged period of time, suggesting discomfort.     

In vivo catechol activity in the rat locus coeruleus following different nociceptive stimuli and naloxone.

The nucleus locus coeruleus (LC) has been implicated in the processing of spinal reflexes following noxious stimuli. It has been demonstrated that noxious stimuli activate LC neuronal firing, but little is known about the neurochemical changes that might occur following such activation. To determine the effects of different noxious stimuli on LC neuronal activity, anaesthetized rats were exposed to mechanical (tail pinch), thermal (55 degrees C water), and chemical (5% Formalin injected in the hind paw) stimuli; the catechol oxidation current (CA.OC), an index of noradrenergic neuronal activity, in the locus coeruleus was monitored using differential normal pulse voltammetry. In addition, the effect of the opioid antagonist naloxone on the CA.OC in the LC was examined. Exposure to both mechanical and chemical stimuli significantly increased CA.OC indicating an increase in LC noradrenergic neuronal activity, while the thermal stimulus had no effect. Treatment with naloxone (1 mg/kg i.v.) had no effect on CA.OC in the LC. The results show a differential responsiveness of LC noradrenergic neurons to different modes of noxious stimuli and fail to demonstrate a tonic opioid regulation of these neurons in the anaesthetized rat.     

Digastric muscle activities in anoxic infant rats

The digastric muscle acts for both feeding (including mastication and swallowing) and respiration. In this study, we examined whether or not the muscle activity is detectable during anoxia in developing rats. Rats at 4 different ages, days 5, 10, 16, and 24, were exposed to 100% N2 under pentobarbital or ketamine-xylazine anesthesia, and the electromyograms of digastric muscles (dEMG) and the diaphragm (diaEMG) were examined simultaneously. Prior to the anoxic exposure, at all ages, the dEMG was similar to or less apparent than the diaEMG, which was detected at each inspiratory movement. In anoxia, we first observed dEMG activity, mostly sporadic (days 5 and 10) or mostly tonic (days 16 and 24), when diaEMG activity was temporarily suppressed (we termed it Phase 1). Second, synchronous phasic or tonic dEMG and phasic diaEMG were recorded temporarily before terminal apnea (we termed it Phase 2). These phenomena were also obtained in vagotomized rats (all ages) or in rats injected with the N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor antagonist MK-801 (dizocilpine (5R,10S)-(+)-5-methyl-10,11-dihydro-5H-dibenzo[a,d]cyclohepten-5,10-imine hydrogen maleate) (days 16 and 24). In conclusion, our results suggest that in anoxia, dEMG activity is detectable during diaEMG suppression in early anoxia, irrespective of the developmental age, the anesthetic (pentobarbital or ketamine-xylazine), vagotomy, or MK-801 injections.     

Respiratory sinus arrhythmia in freely moving and anesthetized rats.

Heart rate increases during inspiration and slows during postinspiration; this respiratory sinus arrhythmia helps match pulmonary blood flow to lung inflation and maintain an appropriate diffusion gradient of oxygen in the lungs. This cardiorespiratory pattern is found in neonatal and adult humans, baboons, dogs, rabbits, and seals. Respiratory sinus arrhythmia occurs mainly due to inhibition of cardioinhibitory parasympathetic cardiac vagal neurons during inspiration. Surprisingly, however, a recent study in anesthetized rats paradoxically found an enhancement of cardiac vagal activity during inspiration, suggesting that rats have an inverted respiratory sinus arrhythmia (Rentero N, Cividjian A, Trevaks D, Pequignot JM, Quintin L, and McAllen RM. Am J Physiol Regul Integr Comp Physiol 283: R1327-R1334, 2002). To address this controversy, this study examined respiratory sinus arrhythmia in conscious freely moving rats and tested whether the commonly used experimental anesthetics urethane, pentobarbital sodium, or ketamine-xylazine alter respiratory sinus arrhythmia. Heart rate significantly increased 21 beats/min during inspiration in conscious rats, a pattern similar to the respiratory sinus arrhythmia that occurs in other species. However, anesthetics altered normal respiratory sinus arrhythmia. Ketamine-xylazine (87 mg/kg and 13 mg/kg) depressed and pentobarbital sodium (60 mg/kg) abolished normal respiratory sinus arrhythmia. Urethane (1 g/kg) inverted the cardiorespiratory pattern so that heart rate significantly decreased during inspiration. Our study demonstrates that heart rate normally increases during inspiration in conscious, freely moving rats, similar to the respiratory sinus arrhythmia pattern that occurs in other species but that this pattern is disrupted in the presence of general anesthetics, including inversion in the case of urethane. The presence and consequences of anesthetics need to be considered in studying the parasympathetic control of heart rate.     

Pain additivity,diffuse noxious inhibitory controls,and attention: A functional measurement analysis

This study utilized the methodology of Functional Measurement theory to investigate the additivity of painful and non-painful thermally induced experiences at one body site with those produced by brief noxious and innocuous electrical stimuli at another. Forty healthy young subjects were tested, using a Peltier thermode to induce tonic pain and an electrocutaneous stimulator for presenting phasic pain, under conditions of either full attention or visual/cognitive distraction (counting numerous light signals) in order to evaluate whether the summed effects are attributable to refocused attention. Six levels of intensity were combined in a factorial design for both tonic and phasic pain. Subjects indicated the overall strength of their dual perception on a visual analog scale. Stimuli showed complex patterns of interaction. Two stimuli were generally rated as greater than one, but the summation was far from additive and greatly influenced by the intensity of the stronger stimulus, suggesting inhibitory action. In general, tonic heat pain strongly affected the perception of phasic electrocutaneous pain whereas the reverse was only partly true. Distraction had a very small effect, suggesting that the “pain inhibits pain” phenomenon attributable to diffuse noxious inhibitory controls (DNIC) is not due to attentional processes. Our data also relate to issues regarding spatial summation across dermatomes and to adaptation level effects in pain, in which a strong painful experience serves as an anchor or comparison point by which others are judged. The psychophysical findings provide a perceptual foundation for clinical phenomena in which patients face with comorbid pain disorders.

Susceptibility of rats to corneal lesions after injectable anesthesia

Corneal injury is not a commonly reported side effect after injectable or inhalation anesthesia in rats, but a number of surgery studies at our facility resulted in a high incidence of these injuries. To explore the potential association of various anesthetic protocols with the development of corneal lesions in rats, we retrospectively evaluated clinical records and sections of eyes from 215 male and 187 female Wistar rats used in eight intravenous infusion toxicology studies. None of the studied compounds was associated with eye toxicity. For placement of jugular vein vascular access ports, rats were anesthetized with enflurane, isoflurane, ketamine-xylazine, or Hypnorm-midazolam. Histologically, corneal changes were scored from 0 to 4 in light of degree of mineralization, leukocytic infiltrates, neovascularization, fibrosis, and ulceration. Prestudy (postsurgical) ophthalmic examination findings of corneal opacities were correlated with mineralization of the anterior limiting membrane and corneal ulceration. Corneal lesions were more severe in animals anesthetized with ketamine-xylazine, and minimal changes occurred after anesthesia with either enflurane or isoflurane. The results of further analysis suggest that corneal lesions can be observed within 24 h after injectable anesthetic administration and are not reversible. The severity of corneal changes was reduced when ketamine-xylazine anesthesia was reversed with yohimbine. Compared with Sprague-Dawley and Lewis rats, Wistar, Long-Evans, and Fischer 344 rats had increased incidence and severity of corneal lesions after anesthesia with ketamine-xylazine, suggesting that these three strains are at increased risk for developing postanesthetic corneal lesions with this regimen.     

Convergence of nociceptive information from temporomandibular joint and tooth pulp afferents on C1 spinal neurons in the rat

The aim of the present study was to test the hypothesis that there is a convergence of afferent inputs from the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) on C1 spinal neurons responding to electrical stimulation of the tooth pulp (TP). In 14 pentobarbital anesthetized rats, the extracellular single unit activity of 31 C1 spinal neurons and the amplitude in a digastric muscle electromyogram (n = 31) increased proportionally during 1.0-3.5 times the threshold for the jaw-opening reflex (JOR). Of 31 C1 spinal neurons responsive to TP afferents, 28 (approximately 90%) were also excited by electrical stimulation of the ipsilateral TMJ capsule. All neurons tested were divided into three categories of nociceptive specific, wide dynamic range and non-responsive as to their responsiveness to mechanical stimuli (pin prick and touch) of the somatic receptive field (skin of the face, neck, jaw and upper forearm) and TMJ capsule. Nineteen (68%) of 28 C1 spinal neurons received nociceptive information from C fibers of the TMJ capsule. These results suggest that there is a convergence of noxious information from the TMJ and TP afferents on the same C1 spinal neurons, which importantly contribute to pain perception from the TMJ region.     

Distributed representation of perceptual categories in the auditory cortex

Categorical perception is a process by which a continuous stimulus space is partitioned to represent discrete sensory events. Early experience has been shown to shape categorical perception and enlarge cortical representations of experienced stimuli in the sensory cortex. The present study examines the hypothesis that enlargement in cortical stimulus representations is a mechanism of categorical perception. Perceptual discrimination and identification behaviors were analyzed in model auditory cortices that incorporated sound exposure-induced plasticity effects. The model auditory cortex with over-representations of specific stimuli exhibited categorical perception behaviors for those specific stimuli. These results indicate that enlarged stimulus representations in the sensory cortex may be a mechanism for categorical perceptual learning.     

Disruption of latent inhibition in ISIAH rats with stress-sensitive arterial hypertension

Latent inhibition phenomenon is used in the study of processes of selective attention in the context reinforcing training. The purpose of this study was a comparative analysis of the ability to ignore irrelevant stimuli in hypertensive ISIAH rats and normotensive Wistar rats with different psychoemotional statuses. Latent inhibition was formed in the passive and active avoidance tasks the development of which was preceded by repeated presentation (pre-exposition) conditioned stimulus without reinforcement. In ISIAH rats, disruption of latent inhibition in both behavioural tasks was observed as compared with Wistar rats. These data suggest that the deficit of selection information in ISIAH rats is caused by congenital weakness of internal inhibition in the adaptation to anxiogenic stimuli.     

Influence of Visual Motion,Suggestion, and Illusory Motion on Self-Motion Perception in the Horizontal Plane

A moving visual field can induce the feeling of self-motion or vection. Illusory motion from static repeated asymmetric patterns creates a compelling visual motion stimulus, but it is unclear if such illusory motion can induce a feeling of self-motion or alter self-motion perception. In these experiments, human subjects reported the perceived direction of self-motion for sway translation and yaw rotation at the end of a period of viewing set visual stimuli coordinated with varying inertial stimuli. This tested the hypothesis that illusory visual motion would influence self-motion perception in the horizontal plane. Trials were arranged into 5 blocks based on stimulus type: moving star field with yaw rotation, moving star field with sway translation, illusory motion with yaw, illusory motion with sway, and static arrows with sway. Static arrows were used to evaluate the effect of cognitive suggestion on self-motion perception. Each trial had a control condition; the illusory motion controls were altered versions of the experimental image, which removed the illusory motion effect. For the moving visual stimulus, controls were carried out in a dark room. With the arrow visual stimulus, controls were a gray screen. In blocks containing a visual stimulus there was an 8s viewing interval with the inertial stimulus occurring over the final 1s. This allowed measurement of the visual illusion perception using objective methods. When no visual stimulus was present, only the 1s motion stimulus was presented. Eight women and five men (mean age 37) participated. To assess for a shift in self-motion perception, the effect of each visual stimulus on the self-motion stimulus (cm/s) at which subjects were equally likely to report motion in either direction was measured. Significant effects were seen for moving star fields for both translation (p = 0.001) and rotation (p<0.001), and arrows (p = 0.02). For the visual motion stimuli, inertial motion perception was shifted in the direction consistent with the visual stimulus. Arrows had a small effect on self-motion perception driven by a minority of subjects. There was no significant effect of illusory motion on self-motion perception for either translation or rotation (p>0.1 for both). Thus, although a true moving visual field can induce self-motion, results of this study show that illusory motion does not.
