This review covers anesthetic methods for equine surgery, including abdominal, orthopedic, and head/neck procedures. It details potential complications and physiologic changes to ensure patient safety and reduce anesthesia risks.

Area of Science:

  • Veterinary Anesthesiology
  • Equine Surgery

Background:

  • Anesthesia in horses presents unique challenges due to their physiology.
  • Safe anesthetic protocols are crucial for minimizing risks during complex surgical procedures.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review anesthetic techniques for horses undergoing abdominal, orthopedic, and head/neck surgery.
  • To discuss special considerations and potential complications associated with equine anesthesia.
  • To describe expected physiologic dysfunctions and necessary supportive measures.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of anesthetic techniques and outcomes in horses.
  • Analysis of anesthetic management for various surgical disciplines.
  • Discussion of physiological responses and complications.
