To retrospectively evaluate the incidence and clinical significance of hypernatremia in dogs administered a single dose activated charcoal (AC) or with sorbitol (ACS) for acute toxicant ingestion. Retrospective study between years 2018-2023. Ninety-six evaluated by university teaching hospital private practice emergency treated ingestion charcoal, without sorbitol. Medical records were reviewed. No dog developed hypernatremia, defined as sodium >155 mEq/L, during period. The ingested was not...
To compare the shock index (SI) in a population of healthy dogs to with confirmed hemorrhagic shock.Retrospective analysis data collected prospectively from 2 previous studies.University teaching hospital.Seventy-eight control enrolled study establish reference interval for tissue oxygen monitor; 38 evaluate monitor shock. The heart rate and systolic blood pressure obtained during respective studies were used calculate SI.None.Shock was significantly higher hemorrhage group (median 1.37,...
To evaluate signalment, clinical signs, dose ingested, treatment requirements, duration of hospitalization, and outcome dogs exposed to phenylpropanolamine.Retrospective case series.170 with potential PPA toxicosis evaluated between 2004 2009.Dogs were identified by reviewing the electronic database an animal poison control center.66 170 (39%) reportedly did not develop any signs. Clinical signs reported in remaining 104 (61%) included agitation (n = 40), vomiting (27), mydriasis (19),...
To describe a case of Dieffenbachia ingestion in dog presented for dysphagia and airway obstruction successfully treated with temporary tracheostomy supportive care beyond that reported the veterinary literature.An 8-year-old male neutered Labrador Retriever, weighing 30 kg, was complaint choking gagging. Abdominal radiographs showed he had distended stomach full foreign material gastrotomy performed. After receiving preanesthetic medication, developed inspiratory stridor during anesthetic...
Whipple's disease (WD), caused by infection with the organism Tropheryma whipplei, is a rare that classically presents diarrhea, weight loss, and polyarthralgia. Less commonly, Disease can presentation endocarditis or neurologic infections. The authors report patient whose initial was acute lower extremity arterial occlusion, review current literature regarding epidemiology, diagnosis, treatment, prognosis of endocarditis.
Background. As the COVID-19 pandemic continues, efforts to better understand severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) viral shedding and transmission in both unvaccinated vaccinated populations remain critical informing public health policies vaccine development. The utility of using real time RT-PCR cycle threshold values (C T values) as a proxy for infectious litres from individuals infected with SARS-CoV-2 is yet be fully understood. This retrospective observational...
ABSTRACT By definition, a drug is medicine or substance that exerts physiologic effect on an organism. In dermatology, various medications and substances are utilized daily basis, ranging from topical treatments to anesthetics in micrographic surgery. The purpose of this section focus some the more common substances, specifically how they work, utilized, routine alternatives (if available). mechanism action, usage, alternative options medication aminolevulinic acid discussed.
Abstract Background Patients who receive splenectomy are at risk for overwhelming postsplenectomy infection (OPSI). Guidelines recommend that adult asplenic patients a complement of vaccinations, education on the risks OPSI, and on-demand antibiotics. However, prior literature suggests majority have had incomplete patient care thus remain increased risk. This study assessed impact standardized involvement infectious diseases (ID) providers outcomes in undergoing splenectomy. Methods A...
The authors report the case of a 42-year-old female with history type I diabetes mellitus and recent episode diabetic ketoacidosis who presented symptoms epistaxis, gastrointestinal upset, hyperglycemia, confusion, cough. She was found to have rhino-cerebral mucormycosis associated multi-focal strokes left internal carotid artery pseudoaneurysm. Her infection successfully treated dual-antifungal therapy consisting liposomal amphotericin B isavuconazole, required only minimal surgical debridement.

Faculty Advisor: Karen Noblett, MD PURPOSE: Establish concurrent and construct validity of motion analysis in differentiating laparoscopic psychomotor skills when suturing laparoscopically on a validated vaginal cuff model. BACKGROUND: Surgical simulation is most useful it provides metrics that are accurate meaningful to the learner. Motion analytics objective data allows comprehensive evaluation assist with deconstructing complex tasks. This information may formative feedback deliberate...
