Question 3

Dr. Elder was interested in the way people recognize objects as members of categories. For example, what makes us recognize a dog as being a dog and not a cat? More specifically, he was curious as to whether people think about categories in a more complex way if they contemplate an “opposite” category first. For example, does a person think differently about the category of “southern” if they first think about the category of “northern”? He is also curious as to whether people categorize differently if they are exposed to category members compared with generating category members. Dr. Elder has four groups of participants (with 30 people in each group). In Group A, participants were told to cut out pictures of dogs and cats from magazines. In Group B, participants were told to cut out pictures of just dogs from magazines. In Group C, participants were told to draw pictures of cats and dogs. In Group D, participants were told to draw pictures of just dogs. After doing this for 30 minutes, participants in all groups were asked to list the attributes that define the “dog” category. Having a higher number of attributes listed was considered to be an indication of thinking about the category in a more complex way. The results of his study are below.

Question 9

Answer is E: The low body fat and less efficient liver metabolism in sighthounds make thiopental a poor choice for use in these breeds. Anesthesia and recovery times are much longer than in other breeds. Thiopental is very lipophilic – meaning a lot is absorbed into adipose tissue. When there is minimal adipose tissue (such as in sighthounds), blood levels remain higher longer. Check out a graphic image of redistribution of thiopental from OK State (note that the level of drug in fat is still increasing while it is decreasing in other tissues). Merck provides a good review on pharmacokinetics. Thiopental can cause heart arrhythmias (usually ventricular bigeminy) and temporary apnea after injection. It must be given via an IV catheter as perivascular injection will cause tissue necrosis due to its very high pH of 12. AAHA has an excellent online article on Anesthesia Guidelines for Dogs and Cats.

Answer

Thiopental is not an appropriate choice for anesthetic induction in sighthounds (e.g., Greyhounds). Why? (A) Rapid urinary excretion, high risk of perivascular irritation if injection error (B) Thiopental is highly protein-bound, these breeds have decreased albumin (C) Causes significant respiratory excitement, cost-prohibitive in large-breed dogs (D) May cause seizures due to altered blood-brain-barrier in these dogs (E) Greyhounds have low body fat, inefficient liver metabolism
