Preoperative analgesics are being increasingly used to provide analgesia in the intraoperative and postoperative period. Opioids reduce anaesthetic requirements, although the effect varies with the different drug and species. The aim of this work was to determine whether buprenorphine reduces the minimum alveolar concentration (MAC) of isoflurane in a dose-related fashion, and whether this effect is similar to morphine when clinical doses of both drugs are used in the rat. Thirty-six male Wistar rats were anaesthetized with isoflurane, and MAC was determined before and after the administration of either buprenorphine or morphine. MAC of isoflurane was determined from alveolar gas samples when a standard noxious stimulus, in the form of a tail clamp, was applied. The duration and degree of reduction of the MAC of isoflurane were recorded. Basic cardiovascular and respiratory measurements were also recorded. Buprenorphine (10, 30 and 100 microg/kg) and morphine (1, 3 and 10 mg/kg) reduced in a dose-dependent fashion the MAC of isoflurane by 15%, 30% and 50%, respectively. Buprenorphine resulted in less cardiovascular and respiratory depression and had a longer-lasting action than morphine. In conclusion, buprenorphine has a dose-related isoflurane sparing effect in the rat similar to that caused by morphine at clinical doses of both drugs.  相似文献

Telazol was used to immobilize nine wild ocelots (Leopardus pardalis) captured in box-traps in southern Texas (USA) between May 1997 and April 1998. Mean (+/- SD) intramuscular dosage rate of 5.05 (+/- 0.76) mg/kg produced an induction time of 3.7 +/- 1.8 min. Duration of cataleptic anesthesia was 67.4 +/- 19.8 min and ocelots stood 50.0 +/- 30.7 min after emergence from cataleptic anesthesia. Ocelots recovered to their preinjection condition 129.7 +/- 28.8 min after first standing and 250.8 +/- 55.1 min after initial injection. We observed no adverse reactions to Telazol aside from minor loss of thermoregulatory control. Telazol administered at 5 mg/kg was an effective and safe immobilizing agent for wild ocelots.  相似文献

Sixteen captive female red deer were successfully anesthetized to surgically implant a telemetry system. The deer were immobilized with (mean±SD) 1.79±0.29 mg/kg xylazine and 1.79±0.29 mg/kg tiletamine/zolazepam given intramuscularly with a dart gun. Anesthesia was maintained for 69±2 min using a total intravenous protocol with a catheter placed in the jugular vein. Group X received xylazine (0.5±0.055 mg/kg/hr) and group D, detomidine (2±0.22 μg/kg/hr), both in combination with ketamine (2±0.02 mg/kg/hr) and midazolam (0.03±0.0033 mg/kg/hr), as a constant rate infusion. Anesthesia was reversed with 0.09±0.01 mg/kg atipamezole and 8.7±1.21 μg/kg sarmazenil given intravenously in both groups. These drug combinations provided smooth induction, stable anesthesia for surgery, and rapid recovery. Respiratory depression and mild hypoxemia were seen, and we, therefore, recommend using supplemental intranasal oxygen.  相似文献

MAC for halothane, enflurane and isoflurane was determined in guinea pigs (Cavia porcellus) exposed to constant anesthetic concentrations (2.5 hours each) in a flow-through glass chamber. The following values were obtained (N = 8 for each anesthetic): 1.01 +/- 0.03 vol% for halothane, 2.17 +/- 0.04 vol% for enflurane, and 1.15 +/- 0.05 vol% for isoflurane. In guinea pigs, MAC for halothane and enflurane are similar to those reported for other rodents, while MAC for isoflurane is lower. The data indicate that guinea pigs possibly are more susceptible to isoflurane's anesthetic actions than other rodents.  相似文献

Two groups of rats were anaesthetized at weekly intervals for 6 weeks with either ketamine/medetomidine alone (60 mg/0.4 mg/kg i.p.) or ketamine/medetomidine (45 mg/0.3 mg/kg i.p.) one hour following buprenorphine (0.05 mg/kg s.c.). Animals that received buprenorphine had longer periods of surgical anaesthesia (P = 0.04) and a greater depression of both mean pedal withdrawal score (P < 0.01) and mean respiratory rate (P = 0.014). Mean total duration of anaesthesia was also greater in the buprenorphine group on day 1. Sleep times reduced with successive doses of anaesthetic in the buprenorphine group (P = 0.024). Two animals in the buprenorphine group died. Repeated anaesthesia with ketamine/medetomidine alone was not associated with anaesthetic mortality. These results indicate that although buprenorphine has a clear anaesthetic-sparing effect, its use with ketamine/medetomidine may be associated with an increased risk of anaesthetic-related mortality.  相似文献

Epidural opioids exert segmentally limited spinal analgesia by acting at dorsal horn neurons. While the spinal cord may be the predominant site of action for hydrophilic opioids such as morphine, initial supraspinal effects have been suggested for lipophilic opioids such as buprenorphine. In view of significant systemic effects, the value of epidural administration of lipophilic opioids in human patients has been questioned. Since epidural buprenorphine may be beneficial for hindlimb surgeries in sheep, intraoperative hemodynamic and central nervous effects were evaluated. In a prospective, randomized, and placebo-controlled study, 15 adult sheep anesthetized for cranial cruciate ligament reconstruction were treated with either epidural buprenorphine (5 μg/kg, n = 5), intramuscular buprenorphine (5 μg/kg, n = 5), or epidural saline (0.15 ml/kg, n = 5) preoperatively. Heart rate, arterial blood pressures and the electroencephalographic variables /δ ratio, α/δ ratio, β/δ ratio, median power frequency (MED), and 80% spectral edge frequency were recorded before and immediately after skin incision and during drilling a tunnel through the tibia bone. Arterial pressures after epidural buprenorphine were significantly lower compared with epidural saline but were quite similar to intramuscular buprenorphine before skin incision. Mean EEG /δ ratios and MED values following epidural and intramuscular buprenorphine were significantly lower compared with epidural saline but quite similar for the two buprenorphine groups during drilling. In conclusion, similar hemodynamic and electroencephalographic effects of epidural and intramuscular buprenorphine suggest systemic effects of epidural buprenorphine in sheep.  相似文献

The RANKL/OPG/RANK pathway is the key mediator of osteoclastogenesis. Mononuclear cells may be implicated in post-menopausal osteoporosis. The effect of estrogen or raloxifene on bone resorption and the expression of RANKL/OPG/RANK in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) was examined. Twenty-nine women with post-menopausal osteoporosis were treated with estrogen (HRT) or raloxifene for 12 months. Bone mineral density (BMD) was measured at baseline and at 12 months at the spine and hip. Serum C-terminal telopeptide (CTX) and OPG were measured at baseline and at 1, 3, 6 and 12 months. PBMCs were isolated from 17 women and changes in RANKL, OPG and RANK mRNA were determined. The effects of estrogen or raloxifene in PBMCs in vitro were also assessed. BMD increased following treatment (lumbar spine % change mean [S.E.M.]: 4.3% [0.9], p<0.001). Serum CTX decreased (6 months: -43.7% [6.0], p<0.0001). Serum OPG declined gradually (12 months: -26.4% [4.4], p<0.001). RANKL, OPG and RANK gene expression decreased (6 months: RANKL 50.0% [24.8] p<0.001, OPG: 21.7% [28] p<0.001, RANK: 76.6% [10.2] p=0.015). Changes in OPG mRNA correlated with changes in BMD (r=-0.53, p=0.027) and CTX (r=0.7, p=0.0044). Down-regulation in RANKL, OPG, RANK mRNA and reduction in bone resorption was also seen in vitro. These results suggest that the expression of RANKL/OPG/RANK in PBMCs are responsive to the slowing in bone turnover/remodeling associated with treatment with estrogen or raloxifene. Further confirmatory studies are needed.  相似文献

Background  

Abuse of addictive substances is a serious problem that has a significant impact on areas such as health, the economy, and public safety. Heroin use among young women of reproductive age has drawn much attention around the world. However, there is a lack of information on effects of prenatal exposure to opioids on their offspring. In this study, an animal model was established to study effects of prenatal exposure to opioids on offspring.  相似文献

This study aimed to estimate the reduction in the minimum alveolar concentration (MAC) of sevoflurane induced by low and high doses of methadone (5 and 10 mg/kg), tramadol (25 and 50 mg/kg), butorphanol (5 and 10 mg/kg) or morphine (5 and 10 mg/kg) in the rat. A control group received normal saline. Sixty-three adult male Sprague-Dawley rats were anaesthetized with sevoflurane (n = 7 per group). Sevoflurane MAC was then determined before and after intraperitoneal administration of the opioids or saline. The duration of the sevoflurane MAC reduction and basic cardiovascular and respiratory measurements were also recorded. The baseline MAC was 2.5 (0.3) vol%. Methadone, tramadol and morphine reduced the sevoflurane MAC (low dose: 31 ± 10, 38 ± 15 and 30 ± 13% respectively; high dose: 100 ± 0, 83 ± 17 and 77 ± 25%, respectively) in a dose-dependent manner. The low and high doses of butorphanol reduced the sevoflurane MAC to a similar extent (33 ± 7 and 31 ± 4%, low and high doses, respectively). Two rats developed apnoea following administration of high-dose butorphanol and methadone. These anaesthetic-sparing effects are clinically relevant and may reduce the adverse effects associated with higher doses of inhalational anaesthetics.  相似文献

The objective of this work was to evaluate the physiological and behavioural effects of opioid analgesic treatment in pigs subjected to abdominal surgery. Ten Swedish Landrace x Yorkshire pigs (20 +/- 4 kg b.w.) were submitted for intestinal cannulation. The pigs were allocated into two groups during one preoperative, one surgical and two postoperative days. All pigs were anaesthetized with medetomidine, tiletamine and zolazepam. One group was treated with epidural morphine (0.1 mg/kg) preoperatively, and transdermal fentanyl patches (50 microg/kg/h) were applied behind the ear immediately after surgery. The other group received epidural saline (equivalent volume) and placebo patches. All pigs were regularly weighed and clinically examined and repeated blood samples were analysed for serum concentrations of cortisol, beta-endorphin and fentanyl. Pre- and postoperative behaviours were evaluated by a swine specialist blinded to the treatment, three times a day, and were also videotape recorded for a total of 84 h per pig. No differences in behaviour were noted by the observer. During the first postoperative 12 h, treated pigs did not differ in activity compared with preoperative recordings, while untreated pigs were found to be less active. The treated group started to show interest in eating immediately after anaesthesia recovery, whereas the placebo group did not. During the 12-60 h postoperative period, the treated group had lower activity levels compared with the preoperative levels, which were similar to those in the placebo group. Treated pigs gained 0.5 +/- 0.2 kg during the subsequent two postoperative days, whereas the untreated pigs lost weight throughout the experiment. Cortisol concentration differed immediately after the surgery: Group P had 325 +/- 120 nmol/L and Group M 159 +/- 49 nmol/L. beta-endorphin concentration did not differ between groups. The highest serum fentanyl concentration (0.37 +/- 0.3 ng/mL) was measured 24 h postoperatively. Preoperative epidural morphine in combination with postoperative transdermal fentanyl resulted in earlier return to normal activity levels and an immediate weight gain after surgery.  相似文献

Propofol is a widely used anesthetic for both induction and maintenance of anesthesia during surgery. A strong feeling of hunger has been reported during the early recovery period after propofol anesthesia. We have investigated the effect of propofol on appetite in 10 patients undergoing a craniotomy and in parallel measured neuropeptide Y (NPY), catecholamines, and serotonin levels in the cerebrospinal fluid and plasma during anesthesia. Ten patients anesthetized with a volatile agent (isoflurane) served as a control group. Plasma NPY and catecholamines levels were not affected by surgery at any time. We observed a strong increase in NPY concentrations in the cerebrospinal fluid independently of the anesthetic technique agent used, whereas catecholamines were unchanged. We found that serotonin concentrations decreased significantly in the plasma (but not in the cerebrospinal fluid) of patients treated by propofol when compared with the control group; this decrease was associated with an increase of hunger early postoperatively. We concluded that the proappetite effect of propofol is mediated through a decrease of serotonin at the peripheral level.  相似文献

Both desferrioxamine (DFO) and chloroquine can significantly reduce hepatic iron in experimental animals with iron overload by chelating iron from the low-molecular-weight pool or decreasing iron uptake by the transferrin-transferrin receptor cycle, respectively. However, no previous studies have investigated whether combination therapy of these two drugs would further decrease the tissue iron overload as well as iron-induced toxicity. Chloroquine administration, 15 mg/kg, 5x/week, to rats during the iron loading regime, 10 mg/kg, 3x/week for 4 weeks, significantly decreased both hepatic (54%) and macrophage iron content (24%). However when administered in combination with desferrioxamine, 10 mg/kg, 3x/week for 2 weeks at the cessation of iron loading, no further reduction of hepatic iron content was noted while the iron content of the macrophages significantly increased, possibly indicating the flux of ferrioxamine through these cells. Further studies are warranted to investigate the speciation of iron within these macrophages. Macrophages isolated from chloroquine-treated iron loaded rats showed a reduction in latent NFkappaB activation and a significant increase in lipopolysaccharide-stimulated nitrite release by comparison to these parameters in iron loaded macrophages. Co-administration of chloroquine and desferrioxamine normalised the latent activity of NFkappaB to that of control macrophages as well as increasing LPS-stimulated NO release towards control values. However, DFO alone did not have any significant effect upon either of these parameters. Such results may have important relevance for the reduced immune function of iron loaded macrophages isolated from thalassaemia patients receiving chelation therapy and their propensity to increased infection.  相似文献

The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of the presence or absence of Corpus luteum (CL) on the follicular population during superstimulation in dairy cows (Holstein-Friesian cattle). Animals were divided into two groups as follows: (1) Growing CL group (G1): Cows (n = 7) received a total dose of 28 Armour units (AU) follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) through the first 4 d (twice daily) after spontaneous ovulation (Day 0). (2) CL Absence group (G2): Cows (n = 10) received prostaglandin F (PGF) at 9 or 10 d after ovulation. After 36 h, all the follicles (larger than 5 mm) were aspirated (Day 0). The FSH treatment started 24 h after aspiration and continued for 4 d. The number of small (3 to <5 mm), medium (5 to <8 mm), and large (≥8 mm) follicles was examined on Days 1, 3, and 5 in all groups. Blood samples were collected daily for 5 d, and progesterone (P4), estradiol (E2), insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1), and growth hormone (GH) in plasma were measured by enzyme immunoassays. The results showed that in G1, the P4 level increased gradually from 0.5 ng/mL at Day 1 to 2 ng/mL at Day 5, whereas in G2, the P4 level was completely below 0.5 ng/mL. All cows of the G2 group showed an increase of E2 at Day 3 or Day 4 followed by an increase of IGF-1 within 24 h, while GH increased concomitantly with the E2 increase in 8 of 10 trials. On the other hand, cows of the G1 group showed neither E2 nor IGF-1 increase. Moreover, at the end of the treatment, the number of follicles in the G2 group was significantly increased compared with that of the G1 group (22.8 ± 2.0 vs. 11.6 ± 2.0). In conclusion, low P4 level during FSH treatment enhanced multiple follicular growth and E2 secretion, which was followed by increase of IGF-1 and GH. Therefore, the absence of the CL may play a critical role in the superovulation response by controlling the number of growing follicles.  相似文献
