Sažetak
The objective of this paper was to compare the effects of diazepam/ketamine and xylazine/ketamine combinations administered intramuscularly to geese, by measurement of the duration of individual anaesthesia periods, and, by exploring their effect on the respiratory and cardiovascular systems, to ascertain which combination is safer or better to use in geese. Eight geese received the combination of xylazine and ketamine, eight received the combination of diazepam and ketamine, and six received a 0.9% NaCl solution. Body temperature, breathing and pulse rate were monitored, while biochemical testing and determination of the acid-basic state of venous blood was performed before the administration of the agent, 5 minutes after administration, and after geese began to raise their heads. The geese from the control group were subjected to the additional measurements 35 minutes after saline administration. The period from anaesthetic administration to setting the head on the ground was significantly shorter in geese receiving diazepam/ketamine than in the geese receiving xylazine/ketamine. The time period from setting the head on the ground to the time of the first reaction to pressure on the distal phalanx, and the time from administration to the time of standing up was significantly longer in geese receiving diazepam/ketamine than in geese receiving xylazine/ketamine. The venous CO2 partial pressure was significantly higher during anaesthesia in the xylazine/ketamine group. According to the results of this study, it may be concluded that the anaesthesia of geese with the diazepam/ketamine combination showed more favourable effects than the anaesthesia with the xylazine/ketamine combination.
