Journal ArticleDOI
The cardiorespiratory and anesthetic effects of clinical and supraclinical doses of alfaxalone in cats.
TL;DR: Alfaxalone produced dose-dependent anesthesia, cardiorespiratory depression and unresponsiveness to noxious stimulation in unpremedicated cats.
Journal ArticleDOI
Plasma pharmacokinetics of alfaxalone in dogs after an intravenous bolus of Alfaxan-CD RTU
Pierre J Ferré,Kirby Pasloske,Ted Whittem,Millagahamanda G Ranasinghe,Qiang Li,Hervé P. Lefebvre +5 more
TL;DR: Alfaxalone, as an HPCD formulation (Alfaxan-CD RTU) administered in the dog provides rapid and smooth induction of anaesthesia, satisfactory conditions for endotracheal intubation and a short duration of anaesthetic.
Journal Article
Methicillin resistance among staphylococci isolated from dogs.
Kinga Gortel,Karen L. Campbell,Ibulaimu Kakoma,Ted Whittem,David J. Schaeffer,Rita M. Weisiger +5 more
TL;DR: It is confirmed that staphylococci isolated from dogs may have methicillin resistance mediated by the mecA gene, and results suggest that in dogs, infections caused by staphyllococci that have the meCA gene may be difficult to treat because of resistance to antibiotics.
Journal ArticleDOI
The pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of alfaxalone in cats after single and multiple intravenous administration of Alfaxan® at clinical and supraclinical doses
TL;DR: The pharmacokinetic parameters and pharmacodynamics of alfaxalone in cats after single administration at clinical and supraclinical dose rates and as multiple maintenance doses are determined and it is concluded that Alfaxalone has nonlinear pharmacokinetics in the cat.
Journal Article
Effect of perioperative prophylactic antimicrobial treatment in dogs undergoing elective orthopedic surgery.
Ted Whittem,Ann L. Johnson,C W Smith,David J. Schaeffer,Bradley R. Coolman,Scott M. Averill,Timothy K. Cooper,Graham R. Merkin +7 more
TL;DR: Results indicated that perioperative antimicrobial prophylaxis decreased postoperative infections rate in dogs undergoing elective orthopedic surgery, compared with infection rate in control dogs.
