We examined two different procedures for surgical tail docking; with and without general anaesthesia (GA), including the use of a topical wound gel formulation to alleviate pain and improve healing after surgery, containing local anaesthetics lignocaine and bupivacaine, with cetrimide and adrenalin (Tri-Solfen®; TS). Forty-four female lambs with similar weights were recruited into four equal cohorts: Groups A and C, the tail was excised with a scalpel without anaesthesia and Groups B and D, the tail was surgically excised and stitched under GA. C and D groups were immediately treated with TS. Pain-related behaviour was assessed using a numerical rating scale (NRS) developed previously. A trained scientist blinded to

ANIMALS 18 male piglets, aged 3–6 days, were included in this study. METHODS A minimal anesthetic state was induced with isoflurane administered by facemask, with anesthetic depth individu- ally adjusted based on responses to interdigital pinch. To desensitize the scrotal skin, a vapocoolant was applied 3 times. Scrotal incisions were made subsequently and Tri-Solfen (TS) or Placebo (P) was administered in both incisional gaps. After 30 seconds, the spermatic cords were severed followed by a further application of TS/P to both incision edges. Nociception-related variables, such as mean arterial blood pressure (MAP), heart rate (HR), and nocifensive movements, were assessed. RESULTS Significant differences in MAP changes were assessed between the TS (14 ± 4 mmHg) and the P group (36 ± 8 mmHg) for cutting the spermatic cords. Furthermore, significantly fewer
