Horses recovering from general anesthesia present some degree of ataxia due to the residual effects of anesthetic drugs. Ataxia contributes to the uncoordinated and sometimes unsuccessful attempts to stand during this phase. Once standing, ataxic horses sway from side to side and sometimes fall back down. This contributes to the high mortality and morbidity observed in horses during the recovery period.
