Perioperative analgesic management using bilateral ultrasound-guided lateral quadratus lumborum block in a dog with extrahepatic biliary obstruction.

Extrahepatic bile-duct obstruction is commonly caused by pancreatitis in canines. Surgical decompression of the biliary tree is required when medical management is unsuccessful. The clinical presentation often includes severe vomiting and abdominal pain requiring targeted analgesic and anesthetic protocols.

Evaluation of three doses of oral trazodone and their impact on handling, activity, and physiological parameters in rabbits: a prospective, blinded, randomized cross-over study.

No study has determined the minimal effective dose of trazodone required to induce behavioral changes and its safety profile in rabbits. Therefore, this study aimed to determine the minimal effective dose of trazodone to improve compliance to handling, and to evaluate associated changes in motor activity, physiological and arterial blood gas parameters. Eight intact female New Zealand White rabbits (2-month-old; 1.

Does heart rate variability using the Newborn Infant Parasympathetic Evaluation index identify postsurgical pain levels and emergence delirium in toddlers? A prospective observational study.

Purpose: Children recovering from anesthesia commonly experience early postoperative negative behaviour, caused by pain and emergence delirium. Differentiating the two is challenging in young children. Perioperative pain influences the heart rate variability-derived Newborn Infant Parasympathetic Evaluation (NIPE) index and may also affect emergence delirium.
