[Hematological changes in sheep during neuroleptanalgesia with droperidol and fentanyl].
Studied were 7 clinically normal sheep chosen randomly (merino, Tsigai, and crosses of these as well as Stara Zagora breed and merino crosses), aged 2-3 years, at an average weight of 52.71 kg. I/v neuroleptanalgesia was carried out (with no surgery to follow) at preliminary premedication with atropini sulfas at 350 Y/kg M., in s/c application, and a mixture of Droperidol at 0.25 mg/kg M. and Fentanyl at 0.005 mg/kg M. in i/m application. Fifteen min later the basic portion of the Droperidol (0.25 mg/kg) and Fentanyl (0.010 mg/kg) mixture was introduced (i/v). The changes in the blood were followed up prior to and after anaesthesia at the 1st, 3rd, and 24th hour and on the 4th and 7th day with regard to hemoglobin, erythrocytes, erythrocyte sedimentation rate, hematocrit, leukocytes and leukocyte formula, total protein and protein fractions, Ca, P, Mg, Na, K, total and direct bilirubin, and fibrinogen. It was found that hemoglobin and erythrocyte values were close to the normal ones. The higher leukocyte count at the 3rd and 24th hour following neuroleptanalgesia was accompanied by transient moderate neutrophilia, lymphopenia, and very slight eosinopenia. The total protein, protein fractions, fibrinogen, total and direct bilirubin, Ca, Na, and K did not show essential changes. Phosphorus and Mg dropped at the 3rd and 24th hour, and on the 7th day did not come back to normal.
