Clinical evaluation of intranasal medetomidine –ketamine and medetomidine–S(+)‐ketamine for induction of anaesthesia in rabbits in two centres with two different administration techniques
Conclusion and clinical relevanceThis study indicated that medetomidine–ketamine and medetomidine–S(+)‐ketamine were effective shortly after IN delivery, but in dorsal recumbency IN administration of S(+)‐ketamine led to two fatalities. Nasal haemorrhage was noted in both cases; however, the factors leading to death have not been fully elucidated.
