While spontaneous ventilation (SV) anesthesia is in use for clinical patients, there is still little systematic experimental research into its basic aspects. The rabbit SV model that we established previously has some limitations including the model being too small, differences in anesthetic drugs and anesthesia procedures, so we set out to establish an SV anesthesia model for beagle dogs. • Single lumen tracheal intubation was performed on beagles connecting a ventilator, and the anesthetic dosage was adjusted for spontaneous ventilation before surgery. • 5 mL of 1 % lidocaine was applied as a local infiltration anesthesia at the surgical incision. • After thoracotomy, 5 mL of 1% lidocaine was sprayed onto the surface of the lungs and a T3–T7 intercostal nerve block (1:1 2 % lidocaine:0.75 % ropivacaine) was performed.
