The main objective of this work was to describe intraocular pressure (IOP) in rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus (Linnaeus, 1758)) subjected to two anesthetic protocols. Anesthetic protocols 1 and 2 were Meloxicam-Xylazine-Ketamine and Meloxicam-Diazepam-Ketamine, respectively. It was a cross-sectional study of descriptive nature only, with a sample of twelve rabbits divided into two groups for the use of anesthetic protocols 1 and 2 independently. The IOP was measured with a Shiotz tonometer throughout the duration of the anesthetic protocols at minutes 5, 10 and 15. Subsequently, based on the measurements collected, the statistical frequencies were determined and the results obtained show the reduction of significant IOP during anesthesia in both anesthetic protocols, especially at minute 10 with measurements of 9.017 and 9.442 mmHg considering the baseline measurements of 19.917 and 20.40...

El presente trabajo tuvo como objetivo principal la descripción de la presión intraocular (PIO) en conejos (Orytolagus cuniculus) sometidos a dos protocolos anestésicos. Los protocolos anestésicos 1 y 2 fueron de Meloxicam-Xilacina-Ketamina y Meloxicam-Diazepam-Ketamina respectivamente. Se trató de un estudio transversal de índole descriptivo únicamente, con una muestra de veinte conejos divididos en dos grupos para el uso de los protocolos anestésicos 1 y 2 independientemente. Se realizó la medición de la PIO con un tonómetro de Shiotz a lo largo de la duración del cuadro anestésico en los minutos 5, 10 y 15. Posteriormente y a partir de las mediciones recabadas se determinaron las frecuencias estadísticas y los resultados obtenidos demuestran la reducción de la PIO significativa durante anestesia en ambos protocolos anestésicos, de manera especial al minuto 10 con medic...
