Abstract

Even the incidence of a drug-induced pancreatitis is rare there are more than 85 different drugs have been reported that induces pancreatitis. FDA have been reported that propofol administration resulted in pancreatitis in 25 human cases. Even though there are several reports pointed out an increase in blood lipid and triglyceride levels after propofol administration, there are no studies investigated the possible association between the use of propofol and consequently occuring pancreatitis in veterinary medicine. The aim of this study was to evaluate the possible side-effects of propofol administration on pancreatic tissue in dogs. Twenty healty dogs were anesthetized for at least one hour. Bloods were collected to evaluate the serum amylase, lipase, ALP, AST, GGT, cPLI, cholesterol, triglyceride, Ca and glucose levels before and after propofol administration, during recovery period and after 4th and 24th hour. It was recorded that the serum glucose, calcium and triglyceride levels were increased during anesthesia, on the contrary serum amylase, lipase, ALP, AST, GGT, and cholesterol levels were decreased. The alterations in cPLI was insignificant. Clinical evaluation is not revealed any evidence of pancreatitis in neither of the animals. As a result, it was concluded that although the triglyceride levels were found to be elevated during propofol administration, it did not cause any clinical manifestations regarding pancreatic activity

Özet

İlaca bağlı pankreatitis şekillenmesi nadir olmakla beraber bugüne kadar 85’in üzerinde değişik ilacın pankreatitise neden olduğu bildirilmiştir. Yakın tarihte FDA’ya propofol uygulanmasından sonra pankreatitis geliştiğini bildiren 25 ayrı vaka bildirimi vardır. Veteriner çalışmalarında ise propofol uygulaması sonrasında hiperlipidemi ve trigliserid seviyesinde yükselmeler olduğu bildirilmesine rağmen, pankreas üzerine muhtemel etkisi araştırılmamıştır. Bu çalışmanın amacı, propofol uygulanmasının pankreas üzerine etkilerini değerlendirmektir. Çalışmada 20 sağlıklı köpek en az bir saat süre ile anesteziye alındı. Hayvanlardan anestezi öncesinde ve sırasında, uyanma sırasında, uyandıktan 4 ve 24 saat sonra kan alınarak serum amilaz, lipaz, kolesterol, trigliserid, ALP, AST, GGT, cPLI, kalsiyum ve glikoz seviyeleri değerlendirildi. Buna göre anestezi sırasında serum glikoz, kalsiyum ve trigliserid değerleri yükselirken amilaz, lipaz, ALP, AST, kolesterol ve GGT değerlerinin düştüğü kaydedildi. Serum cPLI analizlerinde ise istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir değişiklik kaydedilmedi. Klinik olarak değerlendirildiğinde ise propofol uygulaması sonrasında hiçbir hayvanda pankreatitis bulgusuna rastlanmadı. Sonuç olarak bir saat süre ile uygulanan propofolun, serum trigliserid düzeyini yükselttiği, ancak pankreas üzerine etkisi değerlendirildiğinde klinik açıdan güvenli olduğu kanısına varılmıştır
