Comparison of anesthesia with a morphine–lidocaine–ketamine infusion or a morphine–lidocaine epidural on time to extubation in dogs

Conclusions and clinical relevanceAdministration of MLK at the doses reported in this study did not prolong the time to extubation in comparison with a morphine–lidocaine epidural nerve block. The results indicate that concern over prolonging the time to extubation is not a reason to avoid the administration of MLK.
