چکیده
Xylazine was given in six clinical cases @ 0.03 mg/kg body weight by intramuscular route, 15 minutes before the actual surgical intervention. The local anaesthetic, Lignocaine HCL 2% was given in all the cases for the desensitization of site of operation. The Clinical parameters were studied before and after 10, 15, 30 and 60 minutes of xylazine sedation. The heart rate was reduced from 67.83 + 3.90 to 59.5 + 3.82 per minute. The respiration rate was decreased from 29.16 + 0.61to 29.10 + 1.00 per minute. The rectal temperature was reduced from 101.6 + 0.03 to 101.5 + 0.06 OF. Sedative effect was found to be good without any untoward reaction.

This report provides information on xylazine use and i...
متن کاملThe Effects of Xylazine-Ketamine Anesthesia on Intraocular Pressure in Dogs
Glaucoma is defined as the increase in the intraocular pressure (IOP) causing visual loss due to the circulation deficits of the aqueous humor. The IOP measurement can be obtained without any problem in calm animals. However, some animals do not allow IOP measurement without sedation or anesthesia. The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of xylazine HCl (as a sedative) and ketamine...
