A sedation score (0\u201315 [from none to good sedation]) was assigned at 5\u2009mins, 10\u2009mins, 15\u2009mins and 20\u2009mins after IM injection. Venous angiocatheter placement and echocardiographic examination feasibility scores (both from 0 to 3 [from very difficult to very easy]) were recorded at 20\u2009mins. Echocardiography, HR and blood pressure measurements (Doppler and oscillometric methods) were performed at 20\u2009mins and at the end of surgery.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Sedation and angiocatheter feasibility scores did not differ significantly between groups ( P &gt;0.05); the feasibility score of echocardiographic examination was higher in cats in group D ( P\u2009=\u20090.01). HR was higher in group A at 20\u2009mins and after surgery ( P &lt;0.05). The systolic arterial pressure obtained with the Doppler method was statistically significantly higher in cats in group D than in group A at 20\u2009mins ( P\u2009=\u20090.01), while postoperatively there were no differences between groups. Cats in group D showed significantly higher atrial diameters ( P &lt;0.05) and slower atrial flows ( P\u2009=\u20090.04) compared with group A; ventricular thickness and atrial function did not differ between groups ( P &gt;0.05).
