What is IM induction?

100

Being obligate nasal breathers and having abdominal organs place excess weight on lungs and cause atelectasis causes a challenge to what system in horses?

What is a challenge to the respiratory system?

100

This is rarely done in cattle

100

Difficult to access in pigs and complicates anesthesia

100

Key physical abnormality in rodents/rabbits that indicate systemic illness

What is ocular and/or nasal discharge?

200

This anesthetic agent is primarily metabolized by skeletal/smooth muscle and liver

What are inhalants?

200

Nerves may be compressed when recumbent (need padding) in horses and provides a challenge to this body system

What is a challenge to the neurological system?

200

Drug category not used in ruminants because it thickens secretions too much

What are anticholinergics?

200

Location to give sedation in pigs

What are the muscles of the caudal neck to ear?
200

Pre-anesthetic blood work can be performed in this species only

What are rabbits?

300

This induction method provides the fastest induction time, best control of anesthetic depth

What is IV induction + Inhalant Maintenance?

300

Myopathy can result without sufficient padding due to loss of blood flow in horses and is a challenge to what body system

What is a challenge to the musculoskeletal system?

300

Can cause cattle to "bloat" under anesthesia

What is lack of eructation (burping)?

300

Common anesthetic combination in swine

What is Telazol-Ketamine-Xylazine (TKX)?

300

This is not done in rabbits/rodents unless the stomach is involved in the planned surgical procedure

What is fasting?
400

Using this reduces risk of aspiration and anatomic dead space

What is ET tube intubation?

400

These type of drugs are not used due to colic risk

What are anticholinergics?

400

Performed with the ruminant in sternal

What is endotracheal intubation?

400

Difficult to perform in swine

What is endotracheal intubation?

400

This drug is not used in rabbits due to high levels of atropinase in this species

What is atropine?

500

The other term for interior diameter of mainstem bronchi (and this is reduced by using an ET tube)

What is deadspace?

500

Performed blindly by extending the head and neck in horses

What is intubation?

500

Techniques used for standing surgery in cattle

What is a line block, inverted L block, or epidural?

500

Occurs due to a mutation in the gene controlling calcium metabolism in muscle

What is malignant hyperthermia or Porcine Stress Syndrome?

500

A key concern during anesthesia with rodents/rabbits

What is hypothermia due to high metabolic rate?
600

How far an ET tube should be inserted

What is it must reach the thoracic inlet?

600

Recommended method to address if horse becomes light while under inhalant anesthesia

What is re-dose with induction agent?

600

Standing surgery is often used to perform these procedures in cattle

600

Serious or life threatening complication associated with inhalant anesthesia in swine

What is malignant hyperthermia or Porcine Stress Syndrome?

600

Common protocol for rabbits

This period begins when anesthetic is stopped and ends when patient can stand and walk

What is anesthetic recovery?

700

Other names for "Field Anesthesia"

700

Great for OB procedures and palpation

What is a caudal epidural?

700

Pigs often do this when restrained
