Anesthetic recovery after single bolus administration of cyclopropyl-methoxycarbonyl metomidate (CPMM; n = 4 dogs) or etomidate (n = 3 dogs). (A) Anesthesia score for individual dogs as a function of time upon bolus administration of either CPMM (4 mg/kg) or etomidate (2 mg/kg). CPMM and etomidate group dogs are shown as red and black symbols, respectively. (B) Mean times (±SD) required for dogs to recover to the indicated anesthesia scores (from an anesthesia score of 3) after receiving either CPMM (4 mg/kg) or etomidate (2 mg/kg). **P < 0.01 and *** P < 0.001.
