SUMMARY Propofol, administered as the sole anaesthetic agent, was evaluated when given alone and to dogs premed-icated with acepromazine or medetomidine. Both preanaesthetic agents reduced the dose of propofol required for induction of anaesthesia. Medetomidine significantly reduced the dose of propofol required for the maintenance of anaesthesia for a 30-minute period. An equivalent depth of anaesthesia was established in each protocol as judged by lack of response to mechanical noxious stimuli and total amplitude reduction of brain wave activity. Differences in physiological responses between propofol and acepromazine/propofol were not significant. The dogs in the medetomidine/propofol group had a significantly higher blood pressure and longer duration of anaesthesia and recovery. Oxygen saturation was maintained above 90% by the administration of supplemental oxygen. The study demonstrated the comparative responses to a biologically equivalent depth of anaesthesia, as confirmed by brain wave analysis, using three different techniques using propofol. |
