Case report: Suspected propofol associated Heinz body anemia in five mechanically ventilated dogs: a historical case series by Emily M. Ireland, Claire R. Sharp, Ellie M. Leister, Susan Boyd

“…ObjectiveThe aim of this report is to raise awareness of the risk of oxidant-induced erythrocyte injury, including Heinz body (HB) anemia, in critically ill dogs by describing the condition in five dogs receiving constant rate infusions of propofol.Case summaryThis case series describes five dogs with suspected propofol-induced HB anemia undergoing mechanical ventilation (MV) for lower motor neuron disease. Four of the five dogs were treated for tick paralysis (Ixodes holocyclus) and one was treated for suspected eastern brown snake (Pseudonaja textilis) envenomation. …”
