Indução anestésica mediante o uso do tartarato de butorfanol e do maleato de midazolam com manutenção narcótica através da inalação de isoflurano para exérese de abscesso em galo doméstico (Gallus gallus domesticus): relato de caso.

Abstract

Alongside the evolution of national poultry, the promotion of increased research and studies aimed at domestic birds demanded that veterinarians have knowledge of anatomy and veterinary physiology, so that they can safely perform anesthetic practices in this class of animals. In view of the above, together with the lack of studies that evaluate the safety of the use of anesthetic protocols in birds, this monograph aimed to report the narcotic effects produced by the association of butorphanol tartar and midazolam melate and association with isoflurane for safety evaluation anesthesia in domestic roosters in surgical interventions. A domestic rooster (Gallus gallus domesticus) was treated at the Veterinary Hospital of the Federal Rural University of Pernambuco (UFRPE), where an abscess in the left pelvic limb was diagnosed. Surgical treatment was indicated for exeresis of the abscess, where the bird was submitted to general anesthesia for this procedure. The animal received butorphanol tartar and midazolam melate as anesthetic medication, with which it was possible for the animal to enter the left lateral decubitus position. The patient was maintained under inhalation anesthesia with isoflurane in a universal vaporizer diluted in 100% oxygen via a mask, during the entire surgical procedure, where his physiological parameters were monitored every 10 minutes. The anesthetic protocol was successful for the patient, and therefore it was possible to conclude with the results of the present study that the anesthetic protocol used in the report proved to be safe and satisfactory for performing minimally invasive surgical procedures in domestic birds of the species Gallus gallus domesticus.
