In this note, we show that anisotropic quadratic spaces over $R$ remain anisotropic after base change to any odd-degree finite \\'{e}tale extension of $R$. This generalization of the classical Artin-Springer theorem (concerning the situation where $R$ is a field) was previously established in the case where all residue fields of $R$ are infinite by I. Panin and U. Rehmann. The more general result presented here permits to extend a fundamental isotropy criterion of I. Panin and K.
