Intramuscular administration of ketamine at 15-20 mg/kg bodyweight provided effective levels of anaesthesia for venipuncture in 23 chimpanzees aged 12-36 months. For procedures such as plasmaphereses or percutaneous needle biopsy requiring longer anaesthetic times, xylazine (1 mg/kg) was given with the ketamine. More than 1600 procedures were performed under anaesthesia on the 23 chimpanzees over a period of 18 months with no mortality. Recovery was smooth and uneventful.
对23只12至36个月大的黑猩猩进行静脉穿刺时，肌肉注射15至20毫克/千克体重的氯胺酮可提供有效的麻醉水平。对于诸如血浆置换或经皮穿刺活检等需要更长麻醉时间的手术，将赛拉嗪（1毫克/千克）与氯胺酮一起使用。在18个月的时间里，对这23只黑猩猩进行了超过1600例麻醉下的手术，无死亡病例。恢复过程顺利且平稳。
