Cardiovascular effects of a low and a high dose of fentanyl in the isoflurane anesthetized dog: the influence of the anesthetic-sparing effect and the correction of bradycardia
Fentanyl has historically been used to reduce inhalant anesthetic requirements in the dog, with the end goal of reducing detrimental cardiovascular effects seen with their use. While fentanyl has been investigated in this context with the older agent enflurane, this agent is no longer in common …
