Field anesthesia is often necessary for both invasive and noninvasive procedures on wild animals. We describe basic principles of safe anesthetic delivery, monitoring, and recovery for application in procedures involving free-ranging wildlife. For invasive procedures, the potential for immediate and lasting pain must be addressed and appropriate analgesia provided. In situations where the minimum standard of safe anesthesia and effective analgesia cannot be provided, the investigator and approving bodies should rigorously evaluate the risk to the patient against the value of the data obtained. This document is intended to serve as a resource for Institutional Animal Care and Use Committees, biologists, veterinarians, and other researchers planning projects that involve free-ranging wildlife in field conditions.
对于野生动物的侵入性和非侵入性操作,现场麻醉通常是必要的。我们描述了安全麻醉给药、监测和恢复的基本原则,以应用于涉及自由放养野生动物的操作中。对于侵入性操作,必须解决即时和持久疼痛的可能性,并提供适当的镇痛措施。在无法提供安全麻醉和有效镇痛的最低标准的情况下,研究者和审批机构应严格评估对动物的风险与所获数据的价值。本文档旨在为机构动物护理和使用委员会、生物学家、兽医以及其他计划在野外条件下涉及自由放养野生动物项目的研究人员提供参考资源。
