Subarachnoidally administered hyperbaric morphine, buprenorphine, methadone, and 10% dextrose on cardiopulmonary function and behavior in horses
The study was done to compare the heart rate, arterial blood pressure, arterial blood gases, respiratory rate, body temperature, and behavior after subarachnoid administration of hyperbaric morphine (MorphineD10), buprenorphine (BuprenorphineD10), methadone (Methadone D10), and 10% dextrose (D10) in...

Summary: | The study was done to compare the heart rate, arterial blood pressure, arterial blood gases, respiratory rate, body temperature, and behavior after subarachnoid administration of hyperbaric morphine (MorphineD10), buprenorphine (BuprenorphineD10), methadone (Methadone D10), and 10% dextrose (D10) in conscious horses. Six adult horses were studied. Treatments were administered into the lombo-sacral subarachnoid space through an epidural catheter, MorphineD10 at 0.01mg kg-1, BuprenorphineD10 at 0.001mg kg-1, MethadoneD10 at 0.01mg kg-1, and 10% dextrose as a control group. The results showed that there are minimum changes in heart and respiratory rate, blood gases, blood pressure, and body temperature after subarachnoid administration of hyperbaric opioids in horses. No sedation and nor motor impairment or behavioral changes occur.
O estudo foi realizado com a finalidade de comparar a freqüência cardíaca, a pressão sanguínea arterial, à análise de gases, a freqüência respiratória, a temperatura corpórea e o comportamento de eqüinos após a administração subaraquenóide de morfina hiperbárica (MorfinaD10), buprenorfina hiperbárica (BuprenorfinaD10), metadona hiperbárica (MetadonaD10) e dextrose 10% (D10). As doses de MorphinaD10 (0.01mg kg-1), BuprenorfinaD10 (0.001mg kg-1), MetadonaD10 (0.01mg kg-1) e dextrose 10% (grupo controle, 5ml) foram administradas no espaço subaracnóide da região lombo-sacra de seis cavalos adultos, por meio de um catéter epidural. Os resultados mostraram alterações mínimas nas freqüências cardíaca e respiratória, na análise de gases, na pressão arterial e na temperatura corpórea após a administração subaracnóide de opióides hiperbáricos em cavalos. Os animais não apresentaram sedação, ataxia nem alteração comportamental. |
