| Research Abstract |
First, the relationship between noxious stimulus and neurohormonal responses was evaluated in dogs. The changes in heart rate, blood pressure and plasma ACTH and cortisol levels were recorded during major surgeries. Heart rate and blood pressure did not change significantly during or after major surgical manipulation except for skin incision in many dogs. On the contrary, the plasma ACTH and cortisol levels changed in accordance to the degree of potency of surgical manipulation in most dogs. Cortisol was thought to be more valuable than ACTH because of its less individual differences and easy measurement protocol. In addition, the increase in plasma cortisol level induced by surgical manipulation was significantly suppressed by use of potent analgesics such as morphine or fentanyl.
Second, antinociceptive effect of a non steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) was compared with that of opioids by use of cortisol levels during and after surgery. Preemptive administration of NSAID suppressed the increase in plasma cortisol level caused by surgical manipulation and maintained it at similar level to that in dogs given opioids during and after operation. In addition, the changes in post-operative pain score determined by visual analog scale (VAS) were well correlated with the changes in plasma cortisol levels in both groups.
Finally, the effect of high dose of opioid with or without adjunctive drugs on neurohormonal response caused by noxious stimulus was evaluated by use of cortisol level. High dose of fentanyl with ketamine and lidocaine exerted almost complete antinociceptive effects during surgery.
In conclusion, plasma cortisol level is a valuable and objective criteria of pain in dogs.
