Abstract

Black-handed spider monkeys (Ateles geoffroyi ssp.) are endangered in Mexico. Safe anesthetic protocols are important for in situ and ex situ conservation problems. Such protocols are scarce in the literature; nor have safety and physiologic responses been reported. High doses and volume are a counter side for field immobilizations. We tested an anesthetic protocol with a combination of tiletamine-zolazepam (5 mg/kg) plus xylazine (1 mg/kg) in 14 black-handed spider monkeys under human care from two facilities in Mexico. Physiological parameters such as HR, RR, T, SPO₂, systolic arterial pressure (), diastolic arterial pressure (DAP), and median arterial pressure (MAP) were obtained. HR and RR decreased over time, but T increased significantly during the anesthetic time for the whole group; RR and T decreased for juveniles only. Variation between individuals was observed for HR, RR, and DAP. Volume reduction of drugs was achieved compared to previously reported anesthesia protocols. Induction time was fast (6.2 ± 10.4 min) and no tail prehension was seen. Recovery was prolonged (mean and SD). Physiologic parameters remained stable throughout. The protocol proved to be safe for the chemical immobilization of black-handed spider monkeys.

在黑手蜘蛛猴（ateles geoffroyi ssp.）中使用瓦他敏-唑拉西泮-恶嗪麻醉。

黑手蜘蛛猴（Ateles geoffroyi ssp.）在墨西哥濒临灭绝。安全的麻醉方案对原地和异地保护问题非常重要。此类方案在文献中很少见，也没有关于安全性和生理反应的报告。大剂量和大容量是野外固定的反面教材。我们对墨西哥两家机构中由人类看护的 14 只黑手蜘蛛猴进行了测试，测试了瓦他敏-唑拉西泮（5 毫克/千克）加异丙嗪（1 毫克/千克）的麻醉方案。研究人员获得了心率（HR）、呼吸频率（RR）、血压（T）、血氧饱和度（SPO2）、收缩动脉压（）、舒张动脉压（DAP）和中位动脉压（MAP）等生理参数。全组的心率和心率随着时间的推移而下降，但心率在麻醉期间显著上升；只有幼鼠的心率和心率下降。观察到不同个体的心率、心率和 DAP 存在差异。与之前报道的麻醉方案相比，实现了药量的减少。诱导时间短（6.2 ± 10.4 分钟），没有出现尾部前倾。恢复时间较长（平均值和标度）。生理参数自始至终保持稳定。事实证明，该方案对黑手蛛猴的化学固定是安全的。

期刊介绍： The Journal of Zoo and Wildlife Medicine (JZWM) is considered one of the major sources of information on the biology and veterinary aspects in the field. It stems from the founding premise of AAZV to share zoo animal medicine experiences. The Journal evolved from the long history of members producing case reports and the increased publication of free-ranging wildlife papers. The Journal accepts manuscripts of original research findings, case reports in the field of veterinary medicine dealing with captive and free-ranging wild animals, brief communications regarding clinical or research observations that may warrant publication. It also publishes and encourages submission of relevant editorials, reviews, special reports, clinical challenges, abstracts of selected articles and book reviews. The Journal is published quarterly, is peer reviewed, is indexed by the major abstracting services, and is international in scope and distribution. Areas of interest include clinical medicine, surgery, anatomy, radiology, physiology, reproduction, nutrition, parasitology, microbiology, immunology, pathology (including infectious diseases and clinical pathology), toxicology, pharmacology, and epidemiology.
