Romifidine as a constant rate infusion in isoflurane anaesthetized horses: a clinical study

No inhalation anaesthetic sparing effect or side effects were observed by using a 40 μg kg−1 hour−1 romifidine CRI in isoflurane anaesthetized horses under clinical conditions. Cardiovascular performance remained acceptable. Further studies are needed to identify the effective dose of romifidine that will induce an inhalation anaesthetic sparing effect in anaesthetized horses.
