A review of perioperative mortality in pet rabbits in Australia.

November 2024
The Unusual Pet Vets, Frankston, Victoria, Australia.
Article Synopsis
- Domestic rabbits have a higher perioperative mortality rate (2.05%) compared to dogs and cats, mainly due to cardiovascular and respiratory complications, making understanding anaesthetic risks crucial.
- Data from 1,757 rabbits undergoing anaesthesia revealed that poorer health status (ASA score), non-routine procedures, and certain physical traits (like being under 1 kg or a Netherland Dwarf breed) significantly increased mortality risks.
- Using a supraglottic airway device was found to lower mortality risk compared to endotracheal tubes or masks, and a medetomidine-based anaesthetic protocol was safer than one based on fentanyl.
Intermittent apnoea and manual jet ventilation: A successful anesthetic management for infant with acquired Myer-Cotton class III subglottic stenosis undergoing endoscopic balloon dilatation.

Acquired subglottic stenosis is a common complication of endotracheal intubation in infants. The risk increases in trisomy 21, patients undergoing bypass surgery, and having gastroesophageal reflux disease. Less invasive endoscopic balloon dilatation of subglottic stenosis has become a more common treatment modality compared to open surgical technique.

Morquio syndrome is a subtype of mucopolysaccharidoses, wherein the accumulation of glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) in various organ systems lead to alteration of anatomy and physiology. Most prominent features are extensive bony abnormalities, which normally require surgical correction. This paper reports the case of a 7-year-old child with Morquio syndrome who successfully underwent correction of genu valgum under general endotracheal anesthesia via asleep induction and videolaryngoscopy, with supplemental peripheral nerve block.

Background: Transient acquisition of methicillin-resistant (MRSA) on healthcare personnel (HCP) gloves and gowns following patient care has been examined. However, the potential for transmission to the subsequent patient has not been studied. We explored the frequency of MRSA transmission from patient to HCP, and then in separate encounters from contaminated HCP gloves and gowns to a subsequent simulated patient as well as the factors associated with these 2 transmission pathways.
