"What makes an anesthetic procedure "successful"?
-Simply having the patient awake after anesthesia is no longer good enough.
-We need to incorporate adequate pain control as well as a level of anesthesia that allows the surgeon to accomplish the patient suffering adverse effects."p.4 -

Opioids
-Opioids are the most frequently used pre-anesthetic analgesic agents. Why? They Work well and most are very cost effective.$$$
-Although it is thought that opioids cause respiratory depression this is more of a human dose dependent issue.
-Opioids are not contraindicated simply because the patient is brachycephalic, senior, or well...anything!p.9 -

Partial Agonist Opioids
-Buprenorphine is considered a partial agonist at the mu receptors. It is considered an antagonist at kappa receptors.
-Because it is only a partial agonist, it may not provide adequate analgesia for more painful procedures, such as orthopedic procedures.
Slower onset of action than other opioids with peak effect noted 45-60 minutes after IV administration.

Induction
-Induction should be rapid in order to gain control over the airway.
-Injectable medications are preferred over mask induction.
-When possible use the following order of events:
-Pre-medicate/sedate
-Pre-oxygenate while placing IV catheter
-Induction medication IV(still administering O2)
-Intubation when patient adequately anesthetized.p.17 -
p.18 - Play the video from this slide. p.18
Induction Medications
Agents that are rapidly metabolized are preferred in brachycephalic, diabetic, and liver disease patients.
-propofol-a short acting hypnotic agent. It should be administered
s-l-o-w-l-y(over 90 seconds to reduce side effects such as apnea)
-Ketamine/Valium(33%/66% mix)
-Etomidate-a short acting intravenous sedative hypnotic anesthetic agent
-Alfaxalone-an ultra short acting neuroactive steroid molecule with the properties of a general anestheticp.18 -

Alfaxalone
-Unlike ketamine, alfaxalone is not associated with adverse cerebral outcomes or cardiac stress.

Local Anesthetics
-By combining lidocaine with bupivacaine, you can get a fast onset because of the Lidocaine, and a long duration because of the Bupivicaine.

Local anesthetics. Is there an advantage to mixing solutions?
Ribotsky BM1, Berkowitz KD, Montague JR.
no significant difference between the duration of anesthesia of plan lidocaine and the 50/50 mixture.
The results of this study suggest that there is no clinical advantage, with respect to onset and duration of local blockade, to using a 50/50 mixture of plain lidocaine and plain bupivacaine in place of their independent use."p.21 -

Useful LOcal Blocks
-Local(regional)anesthesia plays an important part in the pain control of oral surgical patients.
-Local anesthesia allows a decreased plane of general anesthesia required to complete a procedure.

Infraorbital Nerve block
-By blocking the infraorbital nerve, the continuation of the maxillary nerve, as it exits the infraorbital foramen anesthetizes the upper lip, premolars, nose roof of the nasal cavity, and skin as far caudal as the infraorbital foramen. The maxillary incisors are inconsistently blocked with this technique, particularly in dogs.p.24 -

Constant Rate Infusions:
-CRI's have several advantages:
1.Less break through pain
2.A lower drug dosage is used resulting in a lower incidence of dose related side effects
3.Greater control over drug administration
4.Decreased cost(when compared to technician time and repeated costs of multiple needles and syringes)p.27 -

Other useful CRI's
-MLK CRI is easiest one to master and provides the most multimodel pain control with the lowest cost.
-Morphine-can interchange any other opioid.
-Lidocaine-underused wonder drug!
Ketamine-prevents wind up
-Extremely useful in major abdominal surgery, dentistry with multiple extractions, and orthopedics

Cerenia-Maropitant
Maropitant citrate mimics the structure of substance P and binds the NK-1 receptors so that they cannot bind substance P, thus making stimulation of the vomit center extremely difficult
Substance P is involved in numerous inflammatory conditions, so it has led to further investigation of maropitant citrate uses far beyond nausea control.p.29 -

Pulse Pressure
-A palpable pulse pressure is the difference between the diastolic and the systolic pressures.
-A difference of at least 30mmHg is needed to palpate a strong pulse.
-This means you could have a systolic of 70mmHg and a diastolic of 30mmHg with a pulse pressure of 40mmHg and still feel a good pulse.p.35 -

Treatment for hypotension
-Treatment depends on the cause.
-Most animals under anesthesia experience hypotension due to vasodilation(due to drugs such as inhalant anesthetics)and bradycardia(due to drugs such as dexmedetomidine and an increase in patient depth of anesthesia)p.38 -
p.39 - Play the video from this slide. p.39
If your patient is hypotensive
Reduce the inhalant anesthetic dose, if hypotension is due to patient being too deep, lighten them up!
Increase the fluid administration. Consider colloids: keeps your crystalloids in the vasculature longer.
