BookPublisher: 2007Subject(s): Department of Clinical Medicine & SurgeryDDC classification: 0990,T Dissertation note: The scope of anaesthesia is consistently increasing with the increase in number of operations with the increasing population of equine in veterinary practice. To fulfill the demands of the owners the veterinary surgeons are taking keen interest to get the advanced knowledge and latest information about the equipments and there uses in the veterinary practice to save the life of their patients. Hence the need of a satisfactory anesthetic combination for equine in field conditions is mandatory. In the present project three different drugs in different combinations were tried in fifteen animals of equine species to find out the best combination for the surgical interventions in the field conditions. The animals were divided into three groups of five animals each and designated as group A, B and C, and numbered 1-15. Group A was anaesthetized with acepromazine and ketamine, group B with xylazine and ketamine and group C with diazepam and ketamine combination. The efficacy of these combinations was measured on the basis of the nature of anesthesia induction, duration, depth, recovery and economics aspect. It was concluded that group C with diazepam and ketamine was the best combination and group B with xylazine and ketamine as the 2’ choice of anaesthetic combination in field conditions in equine. Group C was not recommended as it never produced the surgical depth of anaesthesia.
