Analgesic effect of 4 protocols of epidural anesthesia was studied in 20 canine undergoing routine ovariohysterectomy, ASA I and II, without distinction of race and age. Animals were divided into 4 groups of equal number: Group 1: Lidocaine 1% Morphine, Bupivacaine 0.125% Group 2: Morphine, Bupivacaine 0.125% Group 3: and Group 4-Fentanilo Lidocaine 1%-Fentanilo, respecting the period of latency of both drugs. Heart rate (HR / minute, every 5 minutes) were considered for the assessment of intraoperative surgical stimulus, and in the postoperative period was used indicators of the scale of assessment of pain at the University of Melbourne (Otero, 2012) every 15 minutes for the first hour, then every 30 minutes (2nd hour) and finally every 60 minutes, evaluating patients in the morphine group 10 hours (totaling 12 hours) and fentanyl for 6 hours (total of 8 hours). They were found mathematical variations of intraoperative heart rate, and the results of the scale of Melbourne yielded low intensity pain in all patients. Statistically, results showed no significant differences (p> 0.05) regarding the variable of the analgesic effects of both protocols.
The present research was carried out at the Abai City, Department of Caazapá, with the main objective of determining the healing time between the new preputial ostium and the pexia of the penis to the abdominal wall in teaser bulls. Eight bovine animals, halfbreed, aged 18-24 months, with an average weight of 200 and 300 kg, were studied. The cattle were divided into two groups randomly, undergoing general anesthesia and corresponding surgeries: new preputial ostium and pexia of the penis to the abdominal wall. The results showed that the healing time was lower in the animals submitted to the surgery of the penis pexia to the abdominal wall, with statistically significant differences (p<0.05).
The objective of the study was to determine the clinical y radiological and post-surgical evolution of a case of complete spiral closed femur fracture with third fragment of an European common feline species, female of 1 year of age, resolved using Steinmann stainless steel pin and ceramics cerclage with polyamide. Polyamide implants provided a high compression force that adequately matched the rotation strength of the fractured bone, giving stability to the fracture site. Pre-and post-surgical evaluations were performed according to the Hutson et al. ( 2004) scale, evaluating gait and pain claudication to movement and manipulation, as well as radiological changes And the pathologies of the healing. The results obtained after 90 days showed intermittent gait claudication (Grade 1); And absence of pain to movement and manipulation (Grade 0), absence of pathologies of healing and scarring according to the radiological times prescribed by Thrall ( 2009), all considered favorable within the present study.
ABSTRACT. Was conducted a case study of coxofemoral craniodorsal luxation resolution in a male dog, poodle breed, in order to assess their resolution through modified Knowles toggle-pin technique. The clinical outcome was studied by means of qualitative and quantitative assessments, before and after surgery, giving values ? ? based on Hudson et al 2004, on days 2, 7, 14, 21, 30 and 60. The results showed clinical improvement that was appropriate to the time elapsed, obtaining degree of lameness and sensitivity to handling / movement 0 (absent), muscle atrophy grade 2 (moderate). The X-rays revealed the correct positioning and stability of the implant, not showing radiological signs of rejection of the material during the study. Treatment results were optimal due to the stability that provided the structure.
