Reflexs and how to check them

• Palperbal: Corner of the eye
• Pedal: Paw
• Jaw tone

• Make sure no food consumed
• Ask if pregnant or in heat
• Make sure correct animal
• Get signed consent forms
• TPR/ Weight
• Fill out cage card
• Get a history
• Run preanesthetic tests 

Local: Turns off transduction.

General: Loss of consciousness.

• Sedative (No pain relife)
• Drops HR and RR

• Valium
• Tranquilizer
• Controls seizures
• Class II controlled substance

Maintains HR

(Often given with ace-pro)

Class II

Analgesic

Torbugesic IV

Analgesic

• Rompun
• Causes vomiting

• Used in fractious animals
• Cannot be combined w/ anything else

• dissociative
• Cataleptic
• Class III

Last 10-15 mins

Smooth induction and recovery

Indicated by purple

Can't work without oxygen

Indicated by yellow

Faster recovery than iso

• Begins when anesthetic is introduced to the body
• Must be marked an start time for anesthesia
• Vital signs normal, if not slightly elavated

• Excitment stage
• May be less severe if induction agent was used
• Limbs may paddle
• Respiration is irregular or breath may be held
• Rapid pulse and increased blood pressure

Surgical Stage

• Progressive depression of RR, HR, muscle tone, and protective reflexes

Light anesthesia

• Can be achived with induction agents
• RR 12-20 bpm
• HR above 100 w/ strong pulse
• Reflex and muscle tone evident
• Plane for intubation
• Larynx and treachea still active

Medium level or surgical level for routein surguries

• Procedures 30 min or less
• RR can be irregular and may increase during procedure
• Mild decrease (10-15%) in HR and BP
• Reflexs absent
• Muscle tone flaccid

Deep level for complicated surguries

• Respiration slow
• Tidal volume may increase
• HR &BP severly decreased (25-30% below normal)
• Monitoring essential
• All reflexs must be absent and tone is completly flacid

• Overdose stage
• RR shallow and irregular
• HR, BP, and pulse 50% or less
• Skin and extrimities cold
• Body temp less than 95°

Every one minute while going under

Every five minutes when patient is at surgical plane

Weight and tracheal size

Two tubes generally selected 

1 Liter per 15 pounds

• Lg. tanks stored in inactive area and turned on every day. 
• Sm tank, turn on and off

O2 

L per min

Ball float will show how much O2 is being delivered

Takes liquid anesthesia and turns it into gas

%

Fill only when turned off

"Flutter valves"

Safty

Directs O2 and fresh gas

Then CO2 and waste gas

Open or closed depending on what system you are using

Controls pressure in system.

must be sized correctly

holds fresh O2 and gas for inhalation

fills while P is exhaling

1 L per 15 lbs

Tube within a tube

Clear: inhalation

Blue: exhalation

CO2 aborption canister (rebreather)

Allows waste gas to pass thru and be reused

Re-breathing system

For p over 15 lbs

res bag

tidal volume must be enough to drive system

Pop-off valve is open

P under 15 lbs

"Bain unit"

pop-off valve closed

tidal volume low, needs pressure to drive system

Waste diverted to scavenge system
