Abstract Background Prestorage leukoreduction of red blood cell (RBC) bags prevents accumulation pro‐inflammatory mediators and experimentally attenuates post‐transfusion inflammation in healthy dogs. However, the effect on critically ill dogs is unclear. Hypothesis Dogs transfused with leukoreduced (LR) RBC will have lower concentrations leukocytes, interleukin (IL)‐6, IL‐8, monocyte chemoattractant protein‐1 (MCP‐1), C‐reactive protein (CRP) within 24 hours compared to nonleukoreduced...
To describe the clinical features of dogs treated for suspected anaphylaxis in Perth, Western Australia.Single-centre observational case series with retrospective and prospective phases.This was a two-phase study suspicion presenting to emergency service university teaching hospital. Dogs required evidence of, appropriate treatment type 1 hypersensitivity reaction as well two or more organs affected (or cardiovascular signs alone) be included. Phase includes 186 (March 2006-December 2018). 2...
Abstract Background Fluid resuscitation is frequently required for cardiac surgical patients admitted to the intensive care unit. The ideal fluid of choice in regard efficacy and safety remains uncertain. Compared with crystalloid fluid, colloid may result less positive balance. However, some synthetic colloids are associated increased risk acute kidney injury (AKI). This study compared effects succinylated gelatin (4%) (GEL) compound sodium lactate (CSL) on urinary AKI biomarkers after...
To systematically review available evidence and establish guidelines related to the use of thrombolytics for management small animals with suspected or confirmed thrombosis.PICO (Population, Intervention, Control, Outcome) questions were formulated, worksheets completed as part a standardized systematic literature evaluation. The population interest included dogs cats (considered separately) arterial venous thrombosis. interventions assessed thrombolytics, compared no without anticoagulants...
Case report Two dogs with an oesophageal foreign body ( FB ) were diagnosed secondary pyothorax at the time of presentation. One dog was managed surgical removal, pleural lavage and thoracostomy tube placement. Following surgery, it admitted to intensive care unit for oxygen therapy, antimicrobial analgesic administration, fluid thoracic drainage enteral nutrition. The other endoscopic placement continuous suction, similar aftercare in unit. Both survived discharge from hospital. Conclusion...
The primary objective of this study was to document coagulation factor activity in canine "NEVER-FROZEN" and "THAWED" refrigerated plasma for the purposes defining recommended expiration dates. We hypothesized that NEVER-FROZEN THAWED would maintain >50% factors V (FV), VII (FVII), VIII (FVIII), IX (FIX), X (FX), von Willebrand antigen (vWF) a concentration fibrinogen above lower bound reference interval (>0.982 g/L) greater than 14 days but less 42 days.Prospective laboratory-based...
