Avaliação da função renal de cães submetidos a administração de Flunixin Meglumine durante a anestesia geral

Veterinária em Foco (2005)

Renato Silvano Pulz Jussara Zani Maia Bianca do P. L. Petrucci Fabiana Schiochet Rodrigo Fiori S. Silveira

The administration of non steroid antiinflammatory (AINEs) to guarantee the post – operation analgesia is a common practice in veterinary medicine. These agents constitute a group of drugs of wide application in analgesia of small sized animals. The AINEs reduce the inflammation by blocking the enzynes which are responsible for the transformation of arachnoidal acid into a series of substances that cause the inflammatory process, such as the prostaglandins. Flunixin Meglumine is one of the most used analgesics to control the post operation and acute pain. The main focus of this study was to check the effects on to the renal function of dogs that undergo the administration of Flunixin Meglumine during the general anaesthesia. Twenty four adult dogs without a defined race and weighing between 5 and 20 Kg were evaluated. The animals were kept under inhalant general anaesthesia and received an administration of 1,1 mg/ kg of Flunixin Meglumine via intravenous during the trans-anaesthetics. The medium arterial pressure and cardiac frequency were measured the moment of administration and blood level of urea and creatinine were evaluated 24 hours later. The media valves obtained from the medium arterial pressure and the cardiac frequency ranged from 118,9 ±18,1 and 88,5±12,4 respectively. The media valves obtained after the treatment of urea was 15,52 ± 4,9 and creatinine was 0,7 ± 0,13. With the above data we can conclude that the administration of these drugs performed in dogs under general anaesthesia and with medium arterial pressure kept normal has not produced any alteration to the renal function.

Avaliação dos efeitos do Pygeum africanum rosaceae sobre a fertilidade de ratos

ACTA SCIENTIAE VETERINARIAE (2018)

João Roberto Braga de Mello Jussara Zani Maia Angela Pötter de Castro Fernanda Bastos de Mello

Pygeum africanum é uma planta usada como fitoterápico no tratamento de distúrbios da micção provocados por hiperplasia prostática benigna, principalmente em seres humanos e cães. Este trabalho teve por objetivo avaliar a toxicidade reprodutiva do extrato da casca de P. africanum, administrado em ratos Wistar. Os machos foram tratados por 91 dias e as fêmeas por 77 dias, no período pré-acasalamento, gestação e lactação, com sonda orogástrica, nas dosagens de 1,5 mg/kg, 4,5 mg/kg e 15 mg/kg. O grupo controle (C) recebeu salina em volume idêntico aos demais grupos (10 mL/kg). Não foram observadas alterações nos animais tratados com qualquer das três dosagens de P. africanum em comparação com os do grupo controle, quanto ao desenvolvimento ponderal, consumo de água e ração. Não foram detectadas alterações morfológicas nos órgãos internos, cuja massa relativa não diferiu do controle. A avaliação do líquido seminal do ducto deferente e dos testículos não mostrou diferenças na morfologia espermática e na contagem de células espermáticas, comparando o grupo controle com qualquer das dosagens de P. africanum. Não houve interferência sobre a gestação, com as ratas parindo filhotes em número e massa corporal normal. Os índices reprodutivos e de desenvolvimento pós-natal não apresentaram alterações significativas com qualquer das dosagens de P. africanum em relação ao grupo controle. Os filhotes de animais tratados com o P. africanum apresentaram desenvolvimento pós-natal semelhante aos filhotes do grupo controle, com aparecimento de características de desenvolvimento sexual dentro do período previsto para a espécie. Os resultados permitem concluir que a administração do P. africanum, em dosagens até 10 vezes a usada com finalidade terapêutica, não interfere negativamente na reprodução de ratos. O fitoterápico pode ser considerado atóxico sobre a reprodução de ratos.

O ensino da cirurgia veterinária com ética e bem-estar animal

Veterinária em Foco (2007)

Beatriz Guilhembernard Kosachenco Virgínia Bocorny Lunardi Paulo Ricardo Centeno Rodrigues Maria Inês Witz Jussara Zani Maia

Changes in the surgery practical classes at the Veterinary Medicine Faculty – ULBRA, Brazil were introduced aiming to reduce the use of healthy animals in such practices. The previous 30 dogs from the Zoonosis Control Centers used were gradually substituted by carcass or viscera from sloughter house origin. It was used also dogs and cats, holding some pathology, that the owners could not match the treatment costs. Using those alternative the veterinary student did develop surgical skills in an appropriate way. Furthermore, a castration’s program of cats and dogs was also available to the students in which they can practice surgery and anesthesia skills. Such activity helps not only improve their surgical skills but also their consciousness and responsibility with the animals.

Compressão de nervo periférico por linfossarcoma: relato de caso

Veterinária em Foco (2008)

Caroline Marques Lemos Cristine Bastos Dossin Fischer Carlos Guilherme Petrucci Jussara Zani Maia Karine Gehlen Baja

The lymphosarcoma is common in clinical pathology of small animas. There are three forms of presentation of the disease, and the nerve is the most rare among them. The clinical signs are found unspecific as weight loss and lethargy, and usually the owner’s complaint refers to a paraneoplastic syndrome characterized by signs of central nervous system solitary or multifocal; reflect the location and extent of the tumor. It was served in the Veterinary Hospital of ULBRA a canine breed of boxer, with 2 years of age and history of severe claudication in member left chest, muscle weakness, severe muscle atrophy, moderate pain in the neck and handling Horner’s syndrome. After clinic exam, the animal was sent to go through a radiography of the scapula-humeral joint and physiotherapy evaluation. However, there were developments in clinical signs and the animal was sent to perform radiography cervical although it has not shown that bone or compressive amendment, suggested pulmonary metastasis. So was conducted cervical myelography, which showed a mass compressing the cord at the time of C6. It was indicated to euthanasia of the animal and collected material for histological examination. The result was consistent with lymphosarcoma.

Viviane Machado Pinto Maria Eugênia Menezes de Oliveira Jussara Zani Maia Maria Inês Witz Mariane Feser

This summary aims to describe the anesthesia for orthopedic surgery (wing amputation) in African ostrich. After a 12-hour-fasting period a physical restraint and premedication of midazolam and butorfanol were carried out and later the anesthesia induction by ketamine. The ratite was intubated and the anesthesia kept by inhalation of an anesthetic agent (halothane). During presurgery, transurgery and postsurgery, any complications were observed and one hour after the anesthetic procedure, the bird was recovered. According to the parameters of cardiac and respiratory frequencies as well as the arterial pressure observed, the anesthetic protocol was effective for the wing amputation surgery in the African ostrich.

Pygeum africanum as a phytotherapic agent is used to treat human and canine mictoric disturbances observed in benign prostate hypertrophy. In these study we investigated the potential reproductive toxicity of a Pygeum africanum bark extract in Wistar rats. The so called Segment I of FDA was performed and the mature male rats were orally treated over a period of 91 days, while the female rats were treated during the pre-mating, mating, pregnancy and lactation periods (77 days). The animals received daily per os 1.5 mg/kg, 4.5 mg/kg and 15 mg/kg of the extract. A control group received saline in the same volume (10 mL/kg). The daily evaluation of body weight, water and food consumption did not show any difference between the Pygeum africanum groups and the control. No morphological alteration on visceral organ was observed, and the relative weight was similar to the control. The seminal fluid evaluation didn’t show differences between Pygeum africanum groups and control in spermatic count and morphology. The pregnancy was not affected and the dams gave birth to normal litters. The reproductive and post-natal index didn’t show significant differences between groups. The general and sexual development of the Pygeum africanum offspring was normal, considering the specie. It is concluded that the administration of Pygeum africanum up to 10 times the proposed therapeutic dose did not affect rat reproduction. The phytotherapic can be considered non toxic in rat reproduction.
