Abstract :

Summary: Optimizing stroke volume or cardiac output during major surgical procedures is associated with better outcomes. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of propofol on cardiac output by echocardiography in mixed breed dog. A total of 10 dogs weighing 25 to 30 kg with a mean age of 30months, were selected. Cardiovascular health was assessed using echocardiography, auscultation and ECG. Echocardiography was performed before injection of standard approaches. Then 1 and 2.5 mg/ kg) Per kilogram of bodyweight( by propofol intravenous injection. Factors heart rate and stroke volume and then cardiac outpot were calculated The cardiac output had an increasing trend in dose of 2/5ml/kg) Per kilogram of bodyweight( compared to 1ml/kg) Per kilogram of bodyweight(, but in both cases, the cardiac control group had decreased.
