Default Anesthesia

This has been discussed a thousand times, but it is really the same info over and over. We know there is pre-anesthesia (tranquilizer), induction, and maintenance. We also know some drugs are better than others and there is a constant debate over iso or sevo. Just wondering if there is any "new" information out about anesthetic protocol (from the last year or so). Are tehre new articles about whether healthy animals should ever be masked down? How about reports about death rates from iso compared to sevo? It can just be so hard to stay current and inquiring minds want to know.

I am pretty particular about what drugs Ellie gets, but what about for healthy dogs? I see many different styles, but it doesn't feel like there is any good record of what is the safest. I know a common one is a tranquilizer, then prop, then iso, but do we now have researched proof that this is a good protocol.

Just wondering.
