Topical Application of Lidocaine and Bupivacaine to Disbudding Wounds in Dairy Calves: Safety, Toxicology and Wound Healing 2%

lable, pre-treatment data were included as a co-variate. Baseline data were defined as the latest measurement of a given variable before treatment was administered. The statistical model included treatment, sex (except for parameters only measured in one sex), and treatment-by-sex interactions as fixed effects, while the repeated measures ANOVA model included treatment, sex and time (and their 2-way and 3-way interac- tions) as fixed effects. Data were compared either within or across sex depending on observed interactions. Models were selected using backwards elimination where 3-way and 2-way interaction terms with the highest p-Value were sequentially dropped from the model. The process was performed hierarchically starting with the 3-way interaction terms using a threshold p-Value of 0.1, as required by regulatory guidelines. Model selection was stopped when any of the following occurred: (i) all interaction terms at the highest level had a p-Value < 0.1; (ii) no interaction terms remained in the model. The statistical model was therefore: Parameter = Baseline_variables + Treatment + Sex + Time + Treatment:Sex + Treat- ment:Time + Sex:Time + Treatment:Sex:Time + Residual_Error Least squares means were compared at a significance level of p < 0.1 in the first instance apart from treatment by sex by time point, which was compared at p < 0.05 in the first instance. For the repeated measures models, most residual error patterns were selected based on a comparison of Akaike Information Criteria (AIC) output for models containing an unstructured (UN), autoregressive (AR; 1), variance components (VC) and independent residual error pattern (with the lowest AIC preferred among the possible covariance matrices). The denominator degrees of freedom in the covariance pattern
