Consequently the incidence of such events is unknown. Several drugs commonly used in clinical veterinary anaesthesia have been shown to induce epileptiform activity in both human clinical patients and experimental candidates. The present case report describes convulsions in a four-year old male Bernese mountain dog during maintenance of anaesthesia with isoflurane after premedication with acepromazine and methadone followed by co-induction with propofol and ketamine. The dog had no history of previous convulsions. The use of several sedative and anaesthetic drugs makes it difficult to find one single causative pharmaceutical. Background The classification of abnormal motor activity in veterinary patients is unclear. The international league against epilepsy ILAE guidelines have been used with various modifications as a basis for classification of seizure types in dogs 1 An epileptic seizure involves according to ILEA a clinically manifested event with a corroborative EEG abnormality and the clinical observed state is described as a convulsion 2 . A genetic background for canine epilepsy has been described in several breeds including the Bernese Mountain Dog 1 3 . Seizures or convulsions in conjunction with clinical veterinary anaesthesia are infrequently reported in the literature and the incidence of such events or their relation to genetic susceptibility for epilepsy is not known. Several drugs commonly applied in clinical veterinary anaesthesia may induce epileptiform activity in human clinical patients and in experimental studies 2 . Multimodal analgesia and inducing .
