Résumé
To investigate the effect of isoflurane anesthesia on thermoregulation and peripheral heat loss in dorsally recumbent horses. Prospective, clinical study. Seven adult horses (2.6 ± 1.5 years old, 455 ± 70.2 kg). Horses underwent elective surgical procedures in dorsal recumbency under general anesthesia (GA) maintained with isoflurane in oxygen. Rectal (T Following induction of anesthesia, T In horses undergoing isoflurane GA, T Anesthetized horses experience peripheral heat loss through their extremities as a result of vasodilation. Mitigating peripheral heat loss may improve thermoregulation and reduce hypothermic complications in anesthetized horses.
