Conclusions and clinical relevanceSevere reactions to iohexol and gadobutrol are rare in dogs and cats; moderate reactions are more likely with iohexol than with gadobutrol. (Source: Veterinary Anaesthesia and Analgesia)

Isoflurane MAC determination in dogs using three intensities of constant‐current electrical stimulation
Conclusions and clinical relevanceIsoflurane MAC is affected by current intensity and anatomic site. Current intensities of 30 mA and 50 mA provided consistent results when applied to the tail, and thoracic and pelvic limbs that did not differ from those obtained using the tail clamp. This electrical stimulation can be used in place of the tail clamp in MAC studies in dogs. (Source: Veterinary Anaesthesia and Analgesia)

Effect of intravenous lidocaine on cough response to endotracheal intubation in propofol ‐anaesthetized dogs
Conclusions and clinical relevanceIV lidocaine can decrease the incidence of cough during endotracheal intubation in dogs premedicated with acepromazine and methadone, but does not appear to have a sparing effect on the dose of propofol required for endotracheal intubation. Use of IV lidocaine, prior to induction of anaesthesia with propofol may be beneficial in dogs where coughing at intubation would be detrimental. (Source: Veterinary Anaesthesia and Analgesia)

Determination of the minimum infusion rate of propofol required to prevent purposeful movement of the extremities in response to a standardized noxious stimulus in goats
Conclusions and clinical relevancePropofol induction and maintenance of general anaesthesia minimally compromise cardiopulmonary function when oxygen is supplemented in goats. (Source: Veterinary Anaesthesia and Analgesia)

Description and evaluation of four ultrasound‐guided approaches to aid spinal canal puncture in dogs
Conclusions and clinical relevanceThe sonographic description of these approaches was considered adequate for performing spinal canal puncture. In‐plane techniques achieved a higher success rate than out‐of‐plane ones. Further studies are needed to evaluate them in a clinical setting. (Source: Veterinary Anaesthesia and Analgesia)

A description of a technique for ultrasound ‐guided lumbar plexus catheter in dogs: cadaveric study
Conclusions and clinical relevanceThis technique has shown a high percentage of success and low rate of complications. The only complication investigated in this study was the spread to the abdomen or epidural space. To establish safety, clinical studies will be needed. (Source: Veterinary Anaesthesia and Analgesia)

Intravenous infusion of amino acids in dogs attenuates hypothermia during anaesthesia and stimulates insulin secretion
Conclusions and clinical relevanceAmino acids infused at 1.2 g kg−1 hour−1 in dogs attenuated the decrease in RT, HR, and MAP during anaesthesia, and induced a significant increase in plasma insulin concentration. (Source: Veterinary Anaesthesia and Analgesia)

Tachycardia in response to remote capsaicin injection as a model for nociception in the ball python (Python regius)
Conclusions and clinical relevanceThe HR response to an SC capsaicin injection can serve as a nociceptive model in P. regius. Morphine and butorphanol administration did not reduce HR response to capsaicin stimulation but produced significantly different effects on pre‐stimulation HR and sedation.

Comparison of cardiac output measurements using transpulmonary thermodilution and conventional thermodilution techniques in anaesthetized dogs with fluid overload
Conclusions and clinical relevanceTPTDCO and TDCO measurements obtained in anaesthetized dogs during fluid overload exhibited good agreement. Accordingly, transpulmonary thermodilution provides an accurate measurement of CO in dogs with fluid overload. (Source: Veterinary Anaesthesia and Analgesia)

Preliminary study on attitudes, opinions and knowledge of Italian veterinarians with regard to abdominal visceral pain in dogs
Conclusions and clinical relevanceThis online survey represents the opinion of a small number of Italian veterinarians regarding the assessment and treatment of canine abdominal visceral pain. The results show that Italian veterinarians are aware of the main causes and clinical signs of canine visceral pain. Pain‐scoring systems are not often used for the recognition and assessment of pain; however, according to these veterinarians, visceral pain is commonly diagnosed.
