Abstract

The purpose of this study was to determine the anesthetic effects of tiletamine-zolazepam (TZ) alone and azaperone plus tiletamine-zolazepam in growing pigs, and to compare the various physiological parameters in both treatments. Cross experiment was accomplished at 2-week interval. Group 1 (TZ group): six pigs ($31.4{\pm}4.83$ kg) received 4.4 mg/kg of TZ alone. Group 2 (ATZ group); the same six pigs ($43.6{\pm}4.31$ kg) received 4.4 mg/kg of TZ twenty minutes after receiving 2 mg/kg of azaperone. All of the anesthetic drugs were injected into the trapezius muscles. The pigs were fasted for 24 hours before the experiments. Induction and recovery values were determined. Heart rate, respiratory rate, rectal temperature, $pO_2,\;pCO_2$ and pH were determined before administration and 5, 25, 45, 65 and 85 minutes after administration. Induction time of ATZ group was more rapid than that of TZ group (p<0.01). During recovery, sternal recumbency time, standing time and walking time of ATZ group were longer than those of TZ group (p<0.01). Heart rate, respiratory rate, $pO_2,\;pCO_2$, and pH did not show especial differences between the two groups. However, rectal temperature was significantly different between the TZ and ATZ group (p<0.05). As a result, ATZ group had a faster induction and a longer duration of anesthesia than TZ group did. Thus, it was concluded that ATZ combination could be usefully used for chemical restraint in pigs.

본 연구에서는 돼지에서 tiletamine-zolazepam (TZ) 단독 사용과 azaperone, tiletamine-zolazepam (ATZ) 합제 사용시의 마취효과를 규명하고, 양군에서의 생리학적 parameters를 비교하였다. 두개의 군으로 구분하였으며 건강한 6개의 랜드레이스와 요크셔 교잡종 돼지를 실험에 사용하였다. 교차실험을 하였으며, 각 군 사이의 휴약기간은 2주로 하였다. 1군 (TZ 군): 돼지 6두 ($31.4{\pm}4.83$) kg에 TZ 4.4 mg/kg을 투여하였다. 2군 (ATZ 군): 동일한 돼지 6두 ($43.6{\pm}4.31$ kg)에 azaperone 2 mg/kg을 투여하고, 20분 후에 TZ 4.4 mg/kg을 투여하였다. 모든 마취약물들은 등세모근에 근육주사를 하였다. 약물 투여 24시간 전부터 절식을 시켰다. 도입 및 회복 시간을 측정하였다. 심박수, 호흡수 체온, $pO_2,\;pCO_2$ 및 pH를 투여 전, 투여 후 5분, 25분, 45분, 65분 및 85분에 측정하였다. 도입시간에서는 ATZ 군이 TZ군에 비하여 더 빠른 도입을 나타내었다 (p<0.01). 회복에 있어서, 흉와자세 시간, 기립시간 및 보행시간은 ATZ군이 TZ군에 비하여 더 긴 시간을 나타내었다 (p<0.01). 심박수, 호흡수, $pO_2,\;pCO_2$, 및 pH는 두 군간에서 유의차가 인정되지 않았다. 그럼에도 불구하고, 체온은 두 군간 유의성 있는 변화가 인정되었다 (p<0.05). 이상의 결과를 종합하여 볼 때에, ATZ군이 TZ군에 비하여 빠른 도입과 긴 마취시간을 나타내었다. 따라서, ATZ 병용은 돼지의 화학적 보정에 유용하게 사용될 수 있을 것으로 판단되었다.
