Comparison of the effects of an intravenous lidocaine infusion combined with 1% isoflurane versus 2% isoflurane alone on selected cardiovascular variables and recovery characteristics during equine general anaesthesia
Conclusions and clinical relevanceA lidocaine CRI combined with FIIso 1% rather than FIIso 2% alone may improve cardiovascular variables in healthy anaesthetized horses. (Source: Veterinary Anaesthesia and Analgesia)

Equine anaesthesia‐associated mortality: where are we now?
ConclusionsThe most recent studies, in which isoflurane and sevoflurane have been more commonly used for anaesthesia maintenance, report fewer intraoperative cardiac arrests than older studies in which halothane was favoured. Catastrophic fractures, however, have become the greatest cause of recovery‐associated mortality. (Source: Veterinary Anaesthesia and Analgesia)

A pilot study of the effects of acupuncture treatment on objective and subjective gait parameters in horses
Conclusions and clinical relevanceAcupuncture can change horses’ gaits to a degree appreciable by objective and subjective analyses. (Source: Veterinary Anaesthesia and Analgesia)

Effect of morphine, methadone, hydromorphone or oxymorphone on the thermal threshold, following intravenous or buccal administration to cats
Conclusion and clinical relevanceAt the doses used in this study, IV administration of methadone and hydromorphone, and buccal administration of methadone resulted in transient thermal antinociception. The results of this study do not allow us to predict the usefulness of these drugs for providing analgesia in clinical patients. (Source: Veterinary Anaesthesia and Analgesia)

Ampakine CX1942 attenuates opioid‐induced respiratory depression and corrects the hypoxaemic effects of etorphine in immobilized goats (Capra hircus)
ConclusionsCX1942 attenuated opioid‐induced respiratory depression and corrected the hypoxaemic effects of etorphine in immobilized goats. Clinical relevanceAmpakines potentially offer advantages over doxapram, a conventional treatment, in reversing etorphine‐induced respiratory depression without causing unwanted side effects, particularly arousal, in immobilized animals.

Clinical effects and pharmacokinetic variables of romifidine and the peripheral α2‐adrenoceptor antagonist MK‐467 in horses
ConclusionsCombined romifidine and MK‐467 prevented the cardiovascular changes commonly seen with romifidine but did not affect sedation quality. Clinical relevanceCombined IV romifidine and MK‐467 can be used to attenuate the cardiovascular effects of romifidine, such as in horses with colic or undergoing general anaesthesia.
