Abstract

Com o objetivo de se avaliar os efeitos da anestesia regional do membro torácico de cães utilizando bupivacaína, 10 cães sem raça definida, foram submetidos ao bloqueio do plexo braquial. Foi notado relaxamento muscular, perda de sensibilidade e analgesia de todo o membro. O estudo mostrou que esta é uma anestesia fácil de ser realizada e uma alternativa quando o paciente não pode se submeter a uma anestesia geral.
