The use of processed electroencephalography (pEEG) for depth sedation (DOS) monitoring is increasing in anesthesia; however, how to this type critical care adult patients within the intensive unit (ICU) remains unclear.A multidisciplinary panel international experts consisting 21 clinicians involved DOS ICU was carefully selected on basis their expertise neurocritical and neuroanesthesiology. Panelists were assigned four domains (techniques [EEG] monitoring, patient selection, EEG monitors,...

Abstract Background In the last decades, several adjunctive treatments have been proposed to reduce mortality in septic shock patients. Unfortunately, due sepsis and remains elevated NO trials evaluating therapies were able demonstrate any clear benefit. light of lack evidence conflicting results from previous studies, this multidisciplinary consensus, authors considered rational, recent investigations potential clinical benefits targeted therapies. Methods A panel experts defined...
Contents This study was conducted to evaluate clinical efficacy of deslorelin for inhibiting reproduction in the bitch. Ten adult healthy bitches or with mammary neoplasia which owners were requesting suppression cyclicity without performing gonadectomy administered a 4.7‐ 9.4‐mg implant subcutaneously. The first anoestrus (n = 5) dioestrus 5). Treatment repeated every 5 months as long necessary based on situation dog and owner’s desires. Some implanted came heat within 4–15 days after...
Contents The purpose of this study was to define (i) the interval between treatment and sterility, (ii) semen quality in male dogs administered a 4.7‐mg deslorelin implant. Six healthy, adult various breeds body weights were implanted with (Suprelorin, Virbac) followed every 2 weeks blood collections. Semen remained stable or even improved during first month following then showed progressive decline until end study, except for sperm morphology, which unaffected by treatment. Complete...
Objectives Fertility and reproductive management were investigated, via questionnaires, in breeding establishments of Norwegian Forest Cats, Maine Coon, Persian Bengal cats Italy. Methods Six Bengal, five eight Cat seven breeders responded for a total 128 queens, 565 heats, 337 litters 1424 kittens spanning the period 1998–2012. The mean number queens per cattery was 4.9 ± 2.3, with primiparous constituting 20.5%. Of catteries, 61.5% indoor, 50% them having access to fenced balcony. Fifteen...
Few studies address behavioral changes after deslorelin treatment in cats. As increasingly more owners opt for pharmacological sterilization, understanding effects on behavior is critical. This multicentric study compared cats that were surgically sterilized with those treated using an anonymous survey of 19 changes. Owners deslorelin-implanted completed two questionnaires related to the flare-up and downregulation periods, while gonadectomized only one questionnaire. A total 66 answers...
Objectives Gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) agonists like deslorelin are being increasingly used in tom cats for their efficacy controlling reproductive behaviour and fertility. Deslorelin implants have been widely available Europe since 2008. Little, if anything, is known about the interval between treatment onset of sterility, as well semen quality, after cats. The purpose this study was to investigate quality sterility treated with a 9.4 mg implant. Methods Fifteen healthy adult were...
The objective of this study was to assess duration efficacy, side effects and return fertility following use the 9.4 mg deslorelin implant (Suprelorin 12; Virbac) in cats, test whether efficacy action are influenced by implantation site (interscapular vs periumbilical).
Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) may alter fluid biochemical composition causing reduced fertility. Osaterone acetate (OA) is an androgen receptor antagonist marketed for treatment of canine BPH. Little information exists on effects OA administration and its role The aim this research was to study semen quality in dogs with BPH undergoing OA. Eight intact, 5-11-year-old benign were treated orally at a dose 0.25-0.5 mg/kg once daily seven days. Prostatic volume, evaluation analysis...
Monitoring anesthesia depth in children is challenging. Pediatric anesthesiologists estimate general using indirect methods such as pharmacokinetic models and neurovegetative reflexes. The application of processed electroencephalography may help to identify the correct (i.e., patient state index between 25 50).To determine median values spectral edge frequency 95% undergoing conducted according evaluation depth. relationships monitoring depth, type anesthesia, age subgroups, postoperative...

Objectives The purpose of this study was to assess efficacy deslorelin, a gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) agonist marketed in Europe for the control male dog reproduction, postponement puberty queens. Methods Nine prepubertal queens aged 3–9 months were selected study; their general and reproductive health checked through clinical, haematological, vaginal cytology hormonal tests. Following treatment with 4.7 mg deslorelin implant, each cat received monthly clinical examination blood...
