#1 - Early parenteral nutrition in enterectomized dogs

Abstract in English:

The aim of this study was to explore the role of early central parenteral nutrition support with and without lipid emulsion in enterectomized dogs undergoing small bowel partial resection. Enterectomized dogs often cannot be fed properly via an oral or enteral route immediately post-surgery. After enterectomy, the animals received parenteral nutrition or crystalloid solution until they were able to voluntarily take in an oral diet. All dogs were recruited at the University of Sao Paulo veterinary teaching hospital. Eighteen dogs with intussusception, a foreign intestinal body, linear foreign intestinal body, or intussusception associated with a foreign intestinal body underwent enterectomy surgery and were randomly assigned to receive one of three treatments: crystalloid solution (CS group), parenteral nutrition with a mix of glucose and amino acids (GA group) or parenteral nutrition with a mix of glucose, amino acids and lipids (GAL group). A serum chemistry panel and complete blood count were collected prior to surgery and at the end of the study. Albumin increased in the GA and GAL group (p=0.042 and p=0.038 respectively) after hospitalization, but no significant differences were identified among the groups. Body weight decreased by 4.9% (p=0.042) in the CS group, but there were no significant changes in the GAL and GA groups. There was a significant decrease in the recovery scores in the GA and GAL groups during hospitalization (p=0.039 in both groups). Early parenteral nutrition was beneficial for patient recovery in post-surgical small bowel partial resection, indicating better quality, and no major complications or side effects were observed during the hospitalization period in the studied dogs.

Abstract in Portuguese:

O objetivo desse estudo era estudar os efeitos da nutrição parenteral central precoce com e sem emulsão lipídica em cães submetidos à ressecção parcial do intestino delgado. Os cães enterectomizados frequentemente não conseguem ser adequadamente alimentados por via oral ou enteral no pós-cirúrgico imediato. Após a enterectomia, os animais receberam nutrição parenteral ou solução cristaloide até o momento em que fossem capazes de alimentar-se voluntariamente por via oral. Todos os animais foram selecionados no hospital veterinário da Universidade de São Paulo. Dezoito cães diagnosticados com intussuscepção, corpo estranho intestinal, corpo estranho linear ou intussuscepção associada com corpo estranho intestinal foram submetidos à enterectomia e aleatoriamente alocados para receber um dos três tratamentos: solução cristaloide (grupo CS), nutrição parenteral com mistura de glicose e aminoácidos (grupo GA) ou nutrição parental com mistura de glicose e lipídios (grupo GAL). Hemograma e bioquímica sérica foram coletados antes da cirurgia e no final do estudo. Houve aumento de albumina no grupo GA e GAL (p=0,042 e p=0,038 respectivamente) após a hospitalização, mas não houve diferença significativa entre grupos. O peso corpóreo diminuiu cerca de 4,9% (p=0,042) no grupo CS mas não houve alterações significativas no grupo GAL e GA. Houve uma diminuição significativa no escore de recuperação no grupo GA e GAL durante a hospitalização (p=0,039 em ambos os grupos). A nutrição parenteral precoce mostrou-se benéfica para a recuperação no pós-operatório dos cães submetidos à ressecção parcial do intestino delgado, sinalizando uma melhora na qualidade da recuperação e ausência de grandes complicações ou efeitos colaterais durante o período de hospitalização dos animais estudados.


#2 - Colloid osmotic pressure during and after surgical interventions in adult and geriatric dogs

Abstract in English:

The objective this study is to evaluate colloid osmotic pressure (COP) fluctuations in adult and senile dogs during surgical interventions. Thirty-six healthy dogs to surgical interventions, distributed in two groups, A and B, according to their age, and were all subjected to the same anesthetic protocol. Values of albumin, total plasmatic protein and COP were evaluated from samples collected before pre-anesthetic medication, fifteen minutes after pre-anesthetic medication, and shortly after the end of the intervention. Results were tested using t-test to compare among groups and ANOVA for repeated measures followed by Tukey’s test to compare different moments within the same group. Statistical significance was set at p<0.05. In both groups, significant decreases were observed in colloid osmotic pressure, as well as albumin and total proteins (p<0.001). Despite slightly lower COP values for the group of adult animals, this difference was not significant as there was a high individual variation within groups. The results therefore indicate no difference in colloid osmotic pressure values or fluctuation patterns among adult and senile dogs (p=0.124). The observed results indicate that colloid osmotic pressure decreases significantly during surgical procedures, due to hypotension caused by the anesthetic drugs and to hemodilution caused by the fluid administration but there is no difference between groups. However, in both adult and senile dogs, these variables recover gradually after the animals awaken, through increased urine production and recovery of vascular tonus, indicating the successful reestablishment of homeostasis.

Abstract in Portuguese:

O objetivo deste estudo é avaliar as flutuações da pressão coloidosmótica (PCO) em cães adultos e idosos durante a intervenção cirúrgica. Foram utilizados 36 cães hígidos submetidos à intervenção cirúrgica, distribuídos em dois grupos de acordo com a idade e submetidos ao mesmo protocolo anestésico. Os valores de albumina, proteína plasmática total e PCO foram avaliados de amostras coletadas antes da medicação pré-anestésica, 15 minutos após e ao final do procedimento cirúrgico. Os dados obtidos foram analisados através do teste-t para comparação entre os grupos e ANOVA para medidas repetidas seguido do teste de Tukey para comparar diferentes momentos dentro do mesmo grupo. Foram considerados estastisticamente diferentes com p<0.05. Em ambos os grupos foram observados decréscimo dos valores da pressão coloidosmótica, como os valores de albumina e proteína total (p<0.001). Apesar de ligeiramente inferior, os valores de PCO para o grupo adulto não apresentaram diferença significativa. Os resultados indicam que não houve diferença nos valores da pressão oncótica ou padrão de flutuação entre adultos e idosos (p=0,124). Os resultados observados indicam significativo decréscimo da pressão coloidosmótica durante os procedimentos cirúrgicos devido à hipotensão causada pelos fármacos anestésicos e pela hemodiluição causada pela administração de fluídos, mas não houve diferença entre os grupos. Entretanto, tanto em cães adultos como idosos, essas variações retornaram gradualmente após a recuperação dos animals, através do aumento da produção de urina e da recuperação do tônus vascular, indicando restabelecimento da homeostase.

Prof. Orlando Marquês de Paiva 87, Butantã, São Paulo, SP 0558-270, Brazil. E-mail: nicoleparetsis@gmail.com Bone defects are commonly found in veterinary medicine through different disease such as trauma, especially in large animals. Frequently it is necessary to assist this tissue repair for better regeneration. Biomaterials in general are designed to this function. In order to understand the bone cells in the presence of bone substitutes, tests in vivo are essential for these studies. The quantity and quality of new tissue formation can be assessed by observation of tissue morphofunctional unit. Currently, in orthopedic studies sheep are considerated animals of choice for experimental development. Bone defects were performed experimentally in sheep and were implanted chitosan, hydroxyapatite and collagen biomaterials. After 60 days, biopsy was performed at the site of tissue repair and the new tissue formation was described, evaluated and compared by organic matrix bone histomorphometry and electronic transmission microscopy. After hystomorfometry analysis there was no difference between control group and biomaterial group, but when compare with pre-existent tissue, the values are smaller. In descriptive analysis was observed intimate contact with biomaterial and new tissue formation suggesting biocompatibility. It observed the pattern of tissue repair in control group and biomaterial group did not differ in the architecture tissue. However, in the biomaterial group was identified presence of the biomaterial in the specimen. All these data suggest that the biomaterial did not impair bone regeneration, had good biocompatibility and potential to assistant in orthopedic routine of large animals.

E-mail: nicoleparetsis@gmail.com Falhas ósseas são comumente encontradas na medicina veterinária em diferentes enfermidades, principalmente por traumas em grandes animais. Frequentemente faz-se necessário auxiliar este reparo tecidual para melhor correção desta falha. Os biomateriais foram desenvolvidos para cumprir esta função. A fim de avaliar o comportamento celular perante estes substitutos ósseos, a realização de testes in vivo é fundamental. A partir da observação da unidade morfofuncional do tecido é possível avaliar a quantidade e a qualidade do tecido neoformado. Atualmente, em estudos ortopédicos, os ovinos são considerados animais de escolha como modelo experimental. Falhas ósseas foram realizadas experimentalmente em ovinos, onde foram implantados biomateriais à base de quitosana, hidroxiapatita e colágeno. Após 60 dias foi realizada biopsia no local do reparo tecidual e por meio da histomorfometria da matriz orgânica, da análise descritiva da microscopia de luz e da microscopia eletrônica de transmissão, o tecido neoformado foi avaliado e comparado. Na histomorfometria, não houve diferença significativa quanto à quantidade de tecido neorformado do grupo controle e do grupo com biomaterial, porém quando comparado ao osso pré-existente, retirado no momento da confecção da falha, a área de matriz óssea foi menor. Na descrição da microscopia de luz e em maiores detalhes na análise ultra estrutural, observou-se o biomaterial em contato íntimo com o tecido neoformado, sugerindo boa biocompatibilidade. Foi possível observar o padrão da reparação tecidual, onde o membro controle e o membro com biomaterial não diferiram quanto à arquitetura tecidual, porém nas amostras com o implante do biomaterial foi identificada a presença do mesmo. Todas estas informações sugerem que o biomaterial não prejudicou a regeneração óssea, apresentou boa biocompatibilidade e denota potencial para auxiliar na rotina ortopédica de grandes animais.

Universidade Federal do Maranhão, BR 222 Km 4 s/n, Chapadinha, MA 65500-000, Brazil. E-mail: rafaelcarvalho@ufma.br The aim of this study was to describe the topography of the spinal cord of the red-footed tortoise to establish a morphological basis for applied research in anesthesiology and morphology. Six tortoises from the state of Maranhão (Brazil) that had died of natural causes were used. The common carotid artery was used to perfuse the arterial system with saline solution (heated to 37ºC) and to fix the material with a 20% formaldehyde solution. The specimens were then placed in a modified decalcifying solution for 72 hours to allow dorsal opening of the carapace with a chisel and an orthopedic hammer. Dissection of the dorsal musculature and sectioning of the vertebral arches were performed to access the spinal cord. The results revealed the spinal cord of G. carbonaria to be an elongated, whitish mass that reached the articulation between the penultimate and last caudal vertebrae. The cervical intumescence (Intumescentia cervicalis) was located between vertebral segments C5 and T1, whereas the lumbosacral intumescence (Intumescentia lumbalis) was located between T6 and Ca1.

E-mail: rafaelcarvalho@ufma.br Objetivou-se com este estudo descrever a topografia da medula espinhal do jabuti de “patas vermelhas” no intuito de estabelecer bases morfológicas para a investigação aplicada em morfologia, anestesiologia e cirurgia animal. Foram utilizados seis animais adultos, provenientes do Estado de Maranhão (Brasil), os quais haviam ido a óbito por causas naturais. A artéria carótida comum foi canulada e utilizada para perfusão do sistema arterial com solução salina (aquecida a 37°C) e para fixação do material com uma solução de formol a 20%. Os animais foram então colocados em uma solução descalcificadora modificada por 72 horas, o que facilitou a abertura dorsal da carapaça com um cizel e um martelo ortopédico. Em seguida, foi realizada a dissecação da musculatura dorsal e secção dos arcos vertebrais para acesso a medula espinal. Os resultados revelaram a medula espinhal de Geochelone carbonaria como uma massa alongada, esbranquiçada, que se estende até a articulação entre penúltima e última vértebra caudal. A intumescência cervical (Intumescentia cervicalis) foi localizada entre os segmentos vertebrais de C5 e T1, enquanto que a intumescência lombossacral (Intumescentia lumbalis) foi localizada entre os segmentos vertebrais de T6 e Ca1.

Prof. Dr. Orlando Marques de Paiva 87, São Paulo, SP 05508-270, Brazil. E-mail: vanessaferraz@usp.br The treatment of distal humeral fractures in birds is very difficult, technically and for consolidation and maintenance of normal function of the wing, because theses bones are pneumatic, and its cortices very thin. The ankylosis of the humerus-radius-ulnar joint with external fixator is unviable for birds intended for rehabilitation and release. In all animals, the experimental fixator was placed over the humerus, with its articulation over the humerus-radial-ulnar joint e the extension of the fixator was placed over the ulna. The animals were divided in two groups: bilateral surgeries with ankylosis in one wing (static wing) and maintenance of the joint function in the other (dynamic wing) (Group 1), and unilateral surgery, with maintenance of the joint function (dynamic wing) (Group 2). The bonny callus was evaluated with radiographs: post-surgical, at 3, 6 and 9 weeks. The birds in Group 2 were evaluated as of their flight abilities between 11 and 15 weeks after surgery. The wing amplitude and humeral length was evaluated in all animals, after euthanasia. At 6 weeks, all the animals in Group 2, that underwent unilateral surgery, without ankylosis, and four animals in Group 1, that underwent bilateral surgeries: ankylosis of one elbow (static wing) and not of the other (dynamic wing), presented radiographic and clinical consolidation of the fractures. Two animals in Group 1 only presented consolidation of the dynamic wing at 9 weeks and of the static wing at 12 weeks. All the animals in Group 2 presented adequate flight capacity, in at least 13 weeks after surgery. There are few published papers on bird osteosynthesis, and therefore we studied the use of articulated external fixator for the stabilization of distal humeral fractures, avoiding ankylosis of the elbow joint, and, therefore keeping flight function viable, using as a model, rock pigeons (Columba lívia). The proposed method of maintenance of wing function in the dynamic wing, demonstrated being effective in maintaining the length of the bone, the amplitude of the wing as well as viability of muscles and tendons, guaranteeing flight capacity of the studied birds, being a good method for the repair of distal humeral fractures of birds, when rehabilitation and release are intended.

E-mail: intelizano@yahoo.com.br Total intravenous anaesthesia (TIVA) with propofol and ketamine proved to be very satisfactory from a clinical point of view. This blind randomised controlled trial was designed to compare induction and maintenance of anaesthesia under continuous infusion of propofol-racemic ketamine (PRK) with that of propofol-S-ketamine (PSK) and evaluate their haemodynamic, metabolic and ventilatory effects. Seven female dogs undergoing ovariohysterectomy were involved in each group. Anaesthesia was induced: in Group PRK, with propofol (4.0mg kg-1) and racemic ketamine (2.0mg kg-1) intravenous (i.v.), followed by i.v. infusion of propofol (initial dose of 0.5mg kg-1 min-1) and racemic ketamine (0.2mg kg-1 min-1); in Group PSK, with propofol (4.0mg kg-1) and S-ketamine (1.0 mg kg1) i.v., followed by i.v. infusion of propofol (initial dose of 0.5mg kg-1 min-1) and S-ketamine (0.1mg kg-1 min-1). Parameters were assessed before anaesthesia and in 6 time points after induction. In both groups, heart rate increased significantly at all time points. There was a slight decrease in systemic blood pressure, cardiac output and cardiac index in both groups. The systolic index decrease significantly and intense respiratory depression was observed in all groups, making assisted ventilation necessary.
