AB  - This study was carried out to determine a suitable anaesthesia 
  protocol for 12 ostriches brought to the Istanbul University Veterinary Faculty 
  Research and Practice Hospital Surgery Clinic from Istanbul and its vicinity. 
  Three varieties of anaesthesia induction agents were administered to 3 separate 
  groups. The first group was given Xylazine+Ketamine+Isoflurane, the second group 
  Diazepam+Ketamine+Isoflurane and the third group Tiletamine-Zolazepam+Isoflurane. 
  For essential surgical procedures, these combinations were administered to cases 
  with various lesions. Respiratory rate, body temperature and heart rate of the 
  cases were examined at regular intervals. Anaesthesia induction, maintenance 
  and recovery from anaesthesia was monitored. Statistical calculations were carried 
  out using the ANOVA test. Assessment of all cases in this study showed the Diazepam+Ketamine+Isoflurane 
  combination to be the most suitable anaesthesia protocol.
