Reasons for performing study
Controversy exists about the specificity of diagnostic analgesia of the digital flexor tendon sheath (DFTS) in horses.
Objectives
To evaluate the degree of diffusion of mepivacaine from the equine DFTS to adjacent synovial structures.
Study design
Crossover experiment.
Methods
Under general anaesthesia, the DFTS of one front and one hindlimb of 8 horses were injected...
Reasons for performing studyControversy exists about the desensitisation obtained after diagnostic analgesia of the digital flexor tendon sheath (DFTS) during lameness examinations.
ObjectivesTo determine whether DFTS analgesia results in inadvertent desensitisation of the palmar/plantar digital nerves and whether this depends on the injection technique used.
Study designCrossover experimental study...
