  • Title: Anesthesia and sedation for late-term mares.
    Author: Wilson DV.
    Journal: Vet Clin North Am Equine Pract; 1994 Apr; 10(1):219-36. PubMed ID: 8039033.
    Abstract:
    Heavily pregnant mares requiring anesthesia present special problems and challenges. The use of short-acting anesthetic agents, combined with inhalational anesthesia, mechanical ventilation, and blood pressure support, will ensure an optimal outcome by maintaining both maternal and fetal homeostasis. The provision of oxygen during recovery to the still gravid mare also is important for fetal survival.
