Simple Summary Gastrointestinal pain (colic) is one of the most frequent emergencies seen
in equine practice and can be caused by several different processes, making diagnosis …

Objective To define the morbidity and mortality rates in goats undergoing general
anesthesia at a large animal teaching hospital. Study design Retrospective, single-cohort …

Introduction An accurate risk score that can predict peri-anesthetic morbidity and mortality in
equine patients could improve peri-operative management, outcome and client …

Background Impaired oxygenation during anaesthesia can be detrimental. Bodyweight and
body shape influence arterial oxygen tension (PaO2) but the effect of body condition score …

Anesthetizing a horse for colic surgery represents a challenge for the veterinary anesthetist.
While the basic principles of equine anesthesia remain, certain complications are more …

Prevalence and risk factors of severe hypoxemia in anesthetized horses undergoing
emergency exploratory laparotomy are sparsely documented. The aim of this study was to …

OBJECTIVE To investigate the mechanisms underlying the improved arterial oxygenation
described with flow-limited expiration (FLEX) ventilation in anesthetized horses. ANIMALS 5 …

Background Predicting outcome in horses presenting with colic remains challenging.
Objectives To test whether arterial blood samples in horses admitted for colic predict …

OBJECTIVE To investigate the effects of FLow-controlled EXpiration (FLEX) ventilation
expiration time and speed on respiratory and pulmonary mechanics in anesthetized horses …

This study evaluated the effects of various flow rates and fractions of oxygen on arterial
blood gas parameters and on the fraction of inspired oxygen (FIO 2) delivered to the distal …
