Abstract

The behavior of 60 surgical patient dogs anesthetized endovenously with 1,01 - 1,50 mg/kg of xylazine followed by sodium pentobarbital as necessary for operation types, were studied. Groups of dogs were stablished based on both operation length and barbituric consumption. It was observed in 37 dogs (61,66%) a consumption of 5,09 mg/kg of pentobarbital/17,43 minutes of operation; 19 animals (31,66%) were operated with 10,27 mg/kg of pentobarbital in 30,26 minutes; 3 dogs (5,00%) used 15,02mg/kg in 48,33 minutes. In only one case it was necessary 18,92mg/kg for a period of 70 minutes.
