    Area of Science:

    • Veterinary Medicine
    • Animal Research Methodology
    • Surgical Techniques

    Background:

    • Long-term fluid administration in rabbits often requires specialized, restrictive apparatus.
    • Existing methods can impede animal mobility and natural behavior.
    • There is a need for less invasive and non-restrictive cannulation techniques.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To describe a new system for rapid and effective venous cannulation in rabbits.
    • To provide a method for long-term fluid administration that does not interfere with animal mobility.
    • To establish a reliable technique for sustained physiological support in research rabbits.

    Main Methods:

    • Development of a harness-free venous cannulation system.
    • Implementation of the system for repeated fluid administration.

  • Monitoring of animal mobility and well-being during the procedure.

    • Main Results:

    • The described system allows for rapid and effective venous cannulation.
    • Animals exhibited normal mobility, free from any harness or sling apparatus.
    • Sustained, tri-weekly fluid administration (2-3 ml/dose) was successfully maintained for up to 5 months.

    Conclusions:

    • This innovative cannulation system offers a significant improvement for long-term fluid therapy in rabbits.
    • The method enhances animal welfare by preserving natural mobility.
    • It provides a robust platform for extended research protocols requiring regular fluid administration.
