Intranasal midazolam–butorphanol premedication in traumatised buzzards (Buteo spp.) aims to provide safer sedation by minimising mask induction stress. This method significantly reduces sevoflurane requirements while maintaining stable cardiopulmonary parameters. It is a safe and practical alternative that enhances patient welfare and induction quality.

Spine implant development follows a regulated, iterative pathway from clinical need and design through material selection, prototyping, preclinical validation, and regulatory approval to post‐market surveillance. Biomechanical evaluation and risk‐based frameworks integrate across all stages, ensuring safe, effective translation from concept to clinical
