Sažetak
A balanced anesthetic technique was achieved in a monkey undergoing surgery for tibial osteosynthesis. The patient was hostile so a combination of ketamine, diazepam and atropine was administered prior to anesthesia to immobilize it. Propofol was administered for anesthetic induction. Fentanyl citrate was administered as an intravenous bolus and maintained as a continuous rate infusion. An endotracheal cuffed tube was placed. A mixture of oxygen and isoflurane was administered through a non-rebreathing system. Spontaneous breathing ceased after pancuronium bromide administration and manual ventilation with a balloon was started. Surgery lasted 90 minutes. Spontaneous breathing started 10 minutes after skin closure, and the patient was extubated 10 minutes later, when swallowing was observed. Butorphanol tartrate was given by an intramuscular route at 4-hour intervals during the fi rst twelve hours after the surgery. A fentanyl transdermal patch was administered on the medial thigh at the end of the surgery.
