“…At each timepoint, ultrasound of the bladder was performed with dogs in lateral recumbency and bladder volume was calculated before and after voluntary voiding as mL of urine = 0.2 × π × L × W × (H 1 + H 2 )/2 where L = sagittal length, W = transverse width, H 1 = sagittal height, and H 2 = transverse height. 22,23 The uVol at each timepoint was calculated as the total volume of urine obtained by free catch and cystocentesis. If the dog urinated in the cage prior to the specific timepoint, the cage bedding was weighed, and for each gram greater than the dry weight of the bedding, 1 mL of urine was added to the timepoint's total.…”

Background: In human patients, cumulative urine volume (uVol) and urine sodium (uNa) can be predicted using spot urine samples and these quantitative measures help detect low diuretic responsiveness (LDR). Hypothesis/objectives: Formulas using spot urine samples predict cumulative uVol and uNa output after oral administration of furosemide to dogs. Animals: Eight healthy dogs, 6 dogs with congestive heart failure (CHF). Methods: Prospective interventional study. Spot urine samples at 180 and 270 minutes after furosemide (3 mg/kg PO) were used to predict cumulative uVol and uNa output over 7 hours. Differentiation of dogs fulfilling predefined criteria for LDR was examined using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves.

“…In addition to the cardiorespiratory system, POCUS provides a means by which to assess other systems, for example the urinary system (Lisciandro and Fosgate 2017). In a recently published trial, the use of POC cystocolic ultrasonographic determinations of the bladder length, width and height measurements have been incorporated into a simple equation which accurately predicts bladder volume (Lisciandro and Fosgate 2017). Serial measurements of bladder volume (only accurate in patients who have not voided their bladder) provides a non-invasive method for determining urine output, a key indicator of renal perfusion and/or function (Lisciandro and others 2017).…”

Background: Preparation before performing general anaesthesia is essential. In order to comprehensively plan and execute safe anaesthesia, it is vital to quantify anaesthetic risk. However, currently there is limited veterinary literature that collates anaesthetic-related, patient-related and procedural-related risks.Aim of the article: This article highlights previously reported perioperative factors contributing to morbidity and mortality in small animals, as well as important considerations to factor in based on the patient history and findings on clinical examination. It also discusses the current opinions on blood screening and diagnostic imaging.

Objective: To describe the technique and findings of the 'veterinary focused assessment with sonography for trauma-airway, breathing, circulation, disability and exposure' protocol in dogs suffering from trauma. Materials and MethOds: Prospective observational study on a new point-of-care ultrasound protocol on 64 dogs suffering from trauma and comparison of findings with radiology. results: Comparison of the results of this new ultrasound protocol for trauma patients with radiography findings for pneumothorax, pleural effusion, alveolar-interstitial syndrome and abdominal effusion revealed positive agreement of 89, 83, 100 and 87% and negative agreement of 76, 83, 76 and 92%, respectively. Novel findings of the 'veterinary focused assessment with sonography for trauma-airway, breathing, circulation, disability and exposure' exam, which were not previously reported for dogs undergoing focused assessment with sonography for trauma, included alveolar-interstitial syndrome (suggestive of pulmonary contusions), diaphragmatic hernia, retroperitoneal effusion and tracheal injury. Our new technique may also help identify increased intracranial pressure via changes in optic nerve sheath diameter and haemodynamic instability through the evaluation of the caudal vena cava and cardiac function.clinical significance: The described ultrasound examination protocol can be rapidly performed during resuscitation on dogs suffering from trauma and it may detect injuries previously undetectable using other veterinary point-of-care ultrasound protocols.
