Lokhande D. S., V. D. Aher
Abstract: The study was conducted on 14 cattle to evaluate quality and cardio-pulmonary response of dorsolumbar epidural anaesthesia by using two different dosage of lignocaine hydrochloride in combination with xylazine hydrochloride. Except one animal in group A, epidural administration of anaesthetic solution was successful in all animals of both the groups. Except two animals from group A, all the animals of both groups showed signs of sedation. Analgesia was good and sufficient for surgery in both the groups. There was no significant difference observed in ataxic effects between group A and group B. Sedation produced is also advantageous to restrict movements of animals during surgery. A significant (P
