Analgesia da dipirona e escopolamina pós ovário-histerectomia convencional ou videoassistida em cadelas

Abstract

The aim of the current study was to evaluate the efficacy of the dipyrone (25mg.kg-1, TID) and scopolamine (0.2mg.kg-1, TID) combination as analgesic protocol for OVH in bitches. The animals undergone OVH by laparotomy (GC) or by a two-port laparoscopic-assisted approach (GV). Visual analogue scale (VAS) and the University of Melbourne pain scale were assessed starting 60 minutes following surgery to 48 hours. In addition, blood glucose and plasma cortisol were measured. The mean pain scores of both scales did not achieve consistent moderate pain on the GC and GV groups on any time point, as well as glycemia. However, three out of seven animals from GC required rescue analgesia. The plasma cortisol raised significantly at six hours postoperatively in GC group. In conclusion, the association of dipyrone and scopolamine provides adequate analgesia in dogs undergone tow-port laparoscopic-assisted OVH. The laparoscopic-assisted technique provides less and short pain stimulus in comparison to conventional surgery regarding the EVA assessment.
