NMBD & swine Flashcards
(25 cards)
When are NMBDs mostly indicated in veterinary medicine?
For open eye sx,
To position eyeball centrally w/o traction
- aid for intraocular or corneal sx
Where are the inj. Sites for swine?
IM - 2-3 in. Long needles, pass through fat to avoid fat.
- behind ear neck muscle, using butterflies, avoid restraint
SQ- in skin fold of rear leg
How long do adult pigs need to be fasted?
What happens if improper fasting?
12-24 hrs
1.) gas accumulation -> dissension -> inc. P on diaphragm , impeding ventilation
2.) inc. risk of vomiting, regurgitation, aspiration .
How long should piglets be fasted?
They should be held from suckling 2-3 hrs; prone to hypoglycemia
How long should mini pigs be fasted?
Up to 12 hrs
When are anticholinergics indicated in swine?
They are usually not given routinely.
Unless bradycardia warrants
Used to counteract S.E. Provided by ketamine (usually) & Telazole (might) -> salivation
So atropine is used to minimize secretion unless suction is available at intubation

What is the Butyrophenone used in swine for sedation?
Azaparone
- It is the only approved tranquilizer in U.S.
- dec. anxiety & fighting amongst pigs (lower dose)
- sedation (at higher dose)
Which drug would you worry about PENILE PROLAPSE when given at higher dose in boars
Azaparone (Butyrophenone)
What species is most resistant to alpha 2 agonists?
Swine
