    Study Notes

    Induction of Anaesthesia

    • Common options for induction include intravenous agents, inhalation agents, or a combination of these methods.
    • Inhalation induction is particularly recommended for small animals like cats and dogs.
    • Factors influencing the choice of induction method include the animal’s age, health status, procedure duration, and required level of anaesthesia.

    Co-Induction

    • Co-induction aims to achieve smoother induction and reduce the risk of cardiovascular effects.
    • Propofol is commonly used for co-induction to minimize cardiovascular effects.
    • Recommended dose range for small dose propofol (or alfax) during co-induction is typically between 0.5 to 1 mg/kg.
    • The initial small dose of propofol (or alfax) during co-induction is intended to facilitate a more controlled transition to full anaesthesia.

    Supplementing Anaesthesia

    • Fentanyl recommended bolus dose range for supplementing analgesia is usually between 2 to 5 µg/kg.
    • Lidocaine recommended bolus dose range for anaesthesia/analgesia supplementation is generally 1 to 2 mg/kg.
    • Ketamine bolus dose range for supplementing anaesthesia/analgesia is typically between 1 to 5 mg/kg.

    Endotracheal Intubation

    • The method that involves laryngoscope use to insert an endotracheal tube is known as direct laryngoscopy.
    • In cats, the technique for desensitization during intubation involves using lidocaine spray on the laryngeal area.
    • Confirmation of endotracheal tube placement in the trachea can be achieved by observing breath sounds and viewing the tube's position.
    • After intubation, securing the endotracheal tube properly is critical to prevent air leaks.
    • Intubation may not be necessary for short procedures in healthy animals.
    • The endotracheal tube length should be appropriate to prevent entering a bronchus, ensuring it's 1 cm above the carina.
    • Rare risks associated with endotracheal intubation include trauma to the trachea and unintended placement in the esophagus.
    • A good practice before induction includes adequately fasting the animal to reduce the risk of aspiration.

    Overall Considerations

    • Primary factor influencing induction method choice is the individual patient's needs and procedure specifics.
    • Endotracheal intubation's aim is to secure an airway and facilitate ventilation.
    • Risks and complications related to endotracheal intubation can include airway obstruction, esophageal intubation, and lung injury.

    Learning Objectives

    • Important lecture ILOs related to induction and maintenance of anaesthesia focus on the understanding of techniques, pharmacology, and patient management during anaesthesia.
