Anaesthetic management of a cheetah ( <i>Acinonyx jubatus</i> ) for caesarean section
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract After delivering a single stillborn cub, a 4‐year‐old, semi‐feral, captive cheetah ( Acinonyx jubatus ) presented at full‐term pregnancy with either suspension of labour or uterine inertia and a caesarean section was performed. The cheetah was sedated with 0.0357 mg/kg medetomidine intramuscularly, followed by intravenous induction with propofol to effect and maintenance on isoflurane inhalational anaesthesia. Each cub was administered a total of 0.15 mg atipamezole intramuscularly, in 0.05 mg increments, after delivery. The anaesthetic management of the cheetah focused on selecting anaesthetic drugs that would minimise neonatal drug exposure and ultimately maximise the chances of neonatal viability. Additionally, the drugs administered had to also provide sufficient sedation to ensure personnel safety. Finally, the anaesthesia of the cheetah had to be considered in context of the physiological changes that occur during pregnancy.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
