Alfaxalone population pharmacokinetics in the rat: Model application for pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic design in inbred and outbred strains and sexes (2022)
Journal Article

The translation of new injectable anaesthetic drugs from rodent to humans remains slow, despite the realisation that reliance on the volatile agents is unsustainable from an environmental perspective. The aim of this study was to investigate the infl...

Clinical measurements performed during alfaxalone total intravenous anaesthesia for radiography and neurophysiological investigations in dogs (2019)
Journal Article

Objective: To describe clinically relevant, physiological measurements collected during a 3- hour duration alfaxalone total intravenous anaesthesia. Study design: Case series. Animals: A total of 112 client-owned middle aged or older dogs. Methods...

Electrophysiological characterisation of central sensitisation in canine spontaneous osteoarthritis (2018)
Journal Article

In man, central sensitisation (CS) contributes to the pain of osteoarthritis (OA). Dogs with spontaneous OA may also exhibit CS. Electrophysiological reflex measurements are more objective than behavioural assessments, and can be used to evaluate CS...

Alfaxalone anaesthesia facilitates electrophysiological recordings of nociceptive withdrawal reflexes in dogs (Canis familiaris) (2016)
Journal Article

Naturally occurring canine osteoarthritis represents a welfare issue for affected dogs (Canis familiaris), but is also considered very similar to human osteoarthritis and has therefore been proposed as a model of disease in humans. Central sensitisat... Read More about Alfaxalone anaesthesia facilitates electrophysiological recordings of nociceptive withdrawal reflexes in dogs (Canis familiaris).

Involvement of spinal ??-adrenoceptors in prolonged modulation of hind limb withdrawal reflexes following acute noxious stimulation in the anaesthetized rabbit (2016)
Journal Article

The role of spinal α₂-adrenoceptors in mediating long-lasting modulation of hind limb withdrawal reflexes following acute noxious chemical stimulation of distant heterotopic and local homotopic locations has been investigated in pentobarbitone-anaest...
