Journal Title: International Journal of Medicine and Pharmaceutical Sciences (IJMPS) - Year 2018, Vol 8, Issue 1
Abstract
The study was conducted to study the effect of acepromazine and midazolam along with ketamin on haematological parameters in yak. Twelve clinically healthy yaks of either sex and below 2 years of age from yak farm of ICAR- National Research Centre on Yak, Dirang, Arunachal Pradesh were selected for the study. Yak were randomly divided into two groups, Group AK and Group MK i.e. six animals in each group. The animals in Group AK received acepromazine @0.1mg/kg body weight IM followed by ketamine @2.5mg/kg body weight IM after 15 minutes and the animals in Group MK received midazolam @0.5mg/kg body weight IM followed by ketamine @2.5mg/kg body weight IM after 15 minutes. Venous blood samples were collected at 0 (baseline) and at 15, 30, 60 and 90 minutes after administration of anaesthetic agents to monitor the haematological parameters which included haemoglobin, packed cell volume, total erythrocyte count and total leukocyte count. The changes in haematological parameters in both the group were within the normal physiological limit. Based on the findings, both the anaesthetic combinations were found safe to be used in yak.
