Resumo
Existem poucos protocolos para a contenção e sedação de jumentos . Os agonistas alfa-2 são os fármacos mais amplamente administrados e é sabido que essa classe de fármacos pode produzir alguns efeitos deletérios no sistema cardiorrespiratório do animal. Os fármacos da classe dos opioides vêem ganhando espaço na prática anestésica com asininos, pois esses fármacos são utilizados como uma alternativa para a sedação desses animais. Além de produzirem certo grau de sedação, possuem característica analgésica, sem promover efeitos adversos. Na literatura pesquisada não foi encontrado, nenhum estudo sobre o uso associado de xilazina em infusão contínua com meperidina e seus efeitos hemodinâmicos nos muares. Diante deste exposto, objetivou-se estudar os efeitos da associação da infusão contínua da xilazina com bollus intramuscular de meperidina como protocolo de sedação em jumentos. Para tal, foram utilizados seis jumentos, SRD, sendo um macho e cinco fêmeas, com peso médio de 141±23 kg. Os animais foram submetidos a três protocolos experimentais dividos em três grupos, Grupo A: infusão contínua intravenosa de 1,1 mg/kg/hora de xilazina a solução salina por via intramuscular; Grupo B: infusão contínua intravenosa de 0,8 mg/kg/hora de xilazina e solução salina por via intramuscular e Grupo C: infusão contínua intravenosa de 0,8 mg/kg/hora de xilazina e 4 mg/kg de meperidina por via intramuscular. Foi observado redução na frequência respiratória, pressão arterial sistólica nos animais do grupo A e C, diminuição da pressão arterial diastólica e média em todos os grupos. Foi observada redução na altura da cabeça em todos os grupos. A associação da meperidina com xilazina em infusão contínua não provocou alterações cardiorrespiratórias significativas e produziu grau de sedação satisfatório
To the present, there has been few descriptions of anesthetic protocol for restraint and sedation in donkey (Equus asinus). Alpha-2-agonists are widely administered class of drugs. Known to produce some deleterious effects over the cardiopulmonary system. The use of opioids in donkeys has sained popularity anesthetic practicioners, since these drugs are used as an alternative sedative with analgesic characteristics with minimal side effects. To our knowledge, there has not been study evaluating the effects of the association of continuous rate infusion of xilazine with meperidine given intramuscularly over the cardiovascular parameters of donkeys. Therefore, the objective of our study evaluate was to the capacity of sedation and the cardiorespiratory implications of the anesthetic association in donkeys. In order to performe the study, six mixed breed, one male and five females, were used. The average weight has 141 ± 23 kg. The animals were subjected to three experimental protocols. Group A: Continuous intravenous infusion of 1.1 mg / kg / hour of xylazine and saline solution intramuscularly; Group B: Continuous intravenous infusion of 0.8 mg / kg / hour of xylazine and saline solution intramuscularly and Group C: continuous intravenous infusion of 0.8 mg / kg / hour of xylazine and 4 mg / kg of meperidine intramuscularly. Respiratory rate and systolic blood pressure decreased in animals of group A and C. While diastolic blood pressure and mean arterial pressure decreased in all three groups. Head Height lowered following treatment in all groups. The combination of meperidine with continuous rate infusion of xylazine did not cause significant cardiorespiratory implications and produced satisfactory degree of sedation.
