    Area of Science:

    • Veterinary Anesthesiology
    • Neonatal Swine Research

    Background:

    • General anesthesia in newborn pigs presents unique challenges.
    • Establishing safe and effective anesthetic protocols is crucial for neonatal research.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To describe a safe and effective technique for general anesthesia induction and maintenance in newborn pigs.
    • To evaluate the recovery profile and potential complications associated with the described anesthetic method.

    Main Methods:

    • Premedication with atropine sulphate.
    • Anesthesia induction using a face mask with oxygen, nitrous oxide, and 2.5% halothane.
    • Anesthesia maintenance via endotracheal tube with 0.5-1% halothane.

    Main Results:

  • Successful induction and maintenance of general anesthesia were achieved.
  • Recovery from anesthesia was prompt in all subjects.
  • No postoperative complications related to anesthesia were observed.

    • Conclusions:

    • The described halothane-based anesthesia technique is safe and effective for newborn pigs.
    • This protocol facilitates reliable general anesthesia for neonatal swine, supporting research applications.
