E.g.1.In dog O2 requirement decreased to 50%
at 30◦c & 65% at 25◦c.
2.Metabolic rate of isolated slices of heart was reduced by 90% at 10◦c.
3.Potassium arrested heart at 37◦c utilizes 4 times glycogen and produces 3
times lactic acid as by heart at 17◦c.

• However O2 consumption varies for different organs at a particular temperature.
Conclusion;- vital organs (liver, brain, heart) can survive at low temperature for considerable period when deprived of all or a portion of blood supply.

• For induction of quick hypothermia shivering is to be controlled by deep anesthesia or light anesthesia with tranquilization.
• Moderate hypothermia in dog produced rectilinear decrease in anesthetic dose (MAC) for cyclopropane , diethyl ether, fluroxene, halothane, & methoxyflourane.
• Reduces concentration of anesthetic required to produce apnea.

• Surface cooling:- animal directly imersed in ice cold water or kept in cold matress. It needs hyperventilation to keep blood pH (7.2-7.4) on alkaline side to prevent cardiac arrhythmias & fibrillation.
Below 28◦c no anesthetic only ventilation required.
Cooling stopped when approx. ⅔ of desired temp. fall is accomplished
Body cavity cooling:- pouring cold saline water into open thoracic cavity.

• Extracorporeal method:- running blood from a cannulated artery via a heat exchanger with tap water as a cooling medium with the help of a pump.
Used to lower brain temp. below that of
general body temp. by cannulating carotid artery to 14◦c while body temp. remains at 31-32◦c.

Limitations of hypothermic anesthesiaLimitations of hypothermic anesthesia
1) cardiac crisis;-
Fall of B.P may be drastic due to decreased cardiac output & H.R and increased peripheral resistance.
In dog cardiac crisis occur b/w 23 & 15◦c characterised by intense bradycardia, ventricular extra- systoles & ventricular fibrillation.
Hypercapnia , Acidemia,& myocardial
hypoxia also lead to ventricular fibrillation , Prevented by adequate ventilation or by some cardioplegic solutions.

AcupunctureAcupuncture analgesia analgesia
Acus – needle; Punctura – to prick
Current meaning – any type of stimulation (Acupressure, moxibustion, heat, cold, ultrasound, aquapuncture, electro stimulation, implantation and laser) at acupuncture points to produce analgesia or to cure certain diseases.
Used increasingly in man & animals for producing analgesia.
![Page 26: Hypothermic Anesthesia](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061116/54665bafb4af9f3f3f8b52bd/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Used in conjunction with Western treatments- surgery or pharmacological therapy
History:-Existed in India 7000 years ago
Huang Ti Nei Ching (Yellow emperors classic of internal medicine) – oldest document
Integral part of Traditional Chinese Medicine- used more than 2500 years to treat diseases and relieve pain
1921 – Ban in China
1960s – Maoists regime – reintroduction

Acupuncture pointsAcupuncture points
Points are called ‘Xue’ – means ‘cave’ or ‘hole’.
Eastern countries- specify points different names describing their location or function e.g. ‘wei shu’ means point associated with stomach & is used for gastric diseases but are confusing.
Western acupuncture practitioners – identify points by number and capital letter abbr. of the meridian to which they belong e.g. BL/UB, LI, ST, SP, GB, etc.
![Page 28: Hypothermic Anesthesia](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061116/54665bafb4af9f3f3f8b52bd/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Acupoints differ in their physiological behavior, electrical response,& therapeutic role.
Reflect various organs on surface of body.Small as a pin head.Referred as areas of hypersensitivity &
lowered electric resistance.Located on imaginary horizontal lines k/as
MERIDIANS which have internal connections with the organs from which they get their name.
12 organ meridians like LU, LI, ST, SP, H, SI, UB/BL, K, P, TW, GB, LIV & 2 non-organ meridians GOV(governor vessel) and COV(conception vessel) in large animals.
![Page 29: Hypothermic Anesthesia](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061116/54665bafb4af9f3f3f8b52bd/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
365 classic points located along the meridians.
Acc. to Chinese vital energy “chi” flow through these pathways.
Exact location of points is important – small deviations nullify the response (classic theory)
Acupuncture points are cutaneous areas with high conc. Of nerves ,mast cells, capillaries ,and venules & lower electrical resistance than surrounding areas

Point location:- Point location:-
Located in small hollow or depression on skin surface
Are tender compared with surrounding area & response (discomfort) elicited with deep palpation
Subjective roughness or stickiness appreciated when brushed slightly with finger
Clinically used points in most species are believed to be 3 – 15 mm below skin surface

Mechanism of action Comprehensive mechanism theory
(Pomeranx & Stux) :-3 mechanisms to A/analgesia1. A/ needles stimulate type 1 & 11
afferent nerves or A-∂ fibres send impulses to AL-tract of spinal cord Pain blocked presynaptically by release
of enkephalin & dynorphin
![Page 37: Hypothermic Anesthesia](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061116/54665bafb4af9f3f3f8b52bd/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Prevent pain messages from ascending in the spinothalamic tract
2 A/ stimulate mid-brain structures by activating cells in periaqueductal gray matter & raphae nucleus
send descending signals through DL-tract
release of monoamines NE & serotonin in spinal cord
![Page 38: Hypothermic Anesthesia](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061116/54665bafb4af9f3f3f8b52bd/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Nts. inhibit pain presynaptically & postsynaptically by reducing transmission of signals through spinothalamic tract
3. Stimulation of pituitary-hypothalamic complex
systemic release of β-endorphin into
blood stream from pituitary gland accompanied by release of ACTH
![Page 39: Hypothermic Anesthesia](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061116/54665bafb4af9f3f3f8b52bd/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Types of acupuncture
1. Dry needle acupuncture (invasive methods - a/needle, electro-acupuncture chronic intradermal needle insertion),
2. Wet needle acupuncture (aquapuncture / non invasive – Aquapressure, Transcutaneous electrical stimulation (TENS), Moxibustion & various stimulating
patch and pellets)
![Page 40: Hypothermic Anesthesia](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061116/54665bafb4af9f3f3f8b52bd/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Electrical stimulation or electro-acupuncture
Developed as alternative to manual stimulation of acupuncture points
Advantages◦Less painful than manual stimulation◦Requires less practitioner time spent with
patient◦Provides better analgesia
Facilitates standardization
Can be used in balanced anaesthesia to reduce the dose of sedatives/ analgesic & anaesthetics
![Page 41: Hypothermic Anesthesia](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061116/54665bafb4af9f3f3f8b52bd/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Good analgesia in high risk patients without producing CNS & resp. depression ,bradycardia, hypotension
Excellent postoperative pain relief.
Fast postoperative recovery of appetite & gut and bladder function.
Fast postoperative wound healing with minimal infection.
In c-section no depressive effects on the fetus.
Suitable for prolonged surgery (up to 10 hrs).
Simple & inexpensive, less hemorrhage.

Electroacupuncture with high-frequency stimulation (100-200 Hz)◦Rapid onset analgesia; cannot be blocked by
naloxone◦Mediated by NE, serotonin & dynorphins
Low-frequency (2-4 Hz) & medium-frequency stimulation (15-30 Hz)◦Analgesic effect reversed by naloxone◦Mediated by enkephalin & endorphins◦Tendency to accumulate; last at least 1 hr after
treatment ceases

Variable degree of analgesia
Maintenance of sensation to touch ,pressure & traction
Poor relaxation of abdominal muscles (cause ballooning of viscera )
Nausea ,vomiting & shock
