Total intravenous anesthesia in greyhounds: pharmacokinetics of propofol and fentanyl--a preliminary study.
To evaluate concomitant propofol and fentanyl infusions as an anesthetic regime, in Greyhounds. ⋯ In Greyhounds which were not undergoing any surgical stimulation, total intravenous anesthesia maintained with propofol and fentanyl infusions induced satisfactory anesthesia, provided atropine was given to counteract bradycardia. Despite some unsatisfactory recoveries the technique is worth investigating further for clinical cases, in this breed and in mixed breed dogs.
