Preface
The second edition of the Manual of Equine Anesthesia & Analgesia has been updated and rearranged. Most topics have been expanded and new chapters added. Chapters devoted to the sedation and anesthesia of horses undergoing imaging procedures, anesthesia of donkeys and mules, and recognition of pain in horses and donkeys are now included. Case examples of the pharmacologic control of pain are provided, and information on non‐pharmacologic treatment of acute and chronic pain using acupuncture and physical rehabilitation techniques have also been added. In addition, a suggested reading list is included for the reader who wishes to seek further information on the topic.
This edition of the Manual of Equine Anesthesia & Analgesia strives to deliver relevant information on the physiologic and pharmacologic principles underpinning the anesthesia of equids, in addition to providing useful information on the clinical practice of anesthesia. The Manual has retained the same easily accessible format of the first edition, and we believe that it will be a useful guide to all those involved in the anesthesia of equids.

The Risk of Equine Anesthesia
Tanya Duke‐Novakovski
Risks of equine anesthesia have been linked with various conditions and situations and are reviewed in detail elsewhere and summarized in this chapter.
I Risk of equine anesthesia
Anesthesia of the horse always involves an assessment of risk.
Potential complications range from the less serious (e.g. skin wounds) to the more serious (e.g. long bone fractures, myopathies, and peripheral neuropathies), and to death in some cases.
There is also risk of injury to personnel and safe handling should be practiced.
The goal of the anesthetist is to minimize the adverse effects (ideally at minimum cost) by:Identifying and defining the risk(s).Selecting the best strategy for controlling or minimizing the risk(s).
Data from single clinics have cited mortality rates of 0.24–1.8% in healthy horses.
Data from multicenter studies cite the death rate for healthy horses undergoing anesthesia at around 0.9% (approximately 1 : 100).
The overall death rate, when sick horses undergoing emergency colic surgery are included, has been reported to be 0.12% when fatalities were directly related to anesthesia in one study, and 1.9% in another study.
