Comparative study of epidural anesthesia in dogs by weight or occipito-coccygea...
Leite,Gisele Martins de Paula; Augusto,Luís Eugênio Franklin; Pereira,Vanessa Guedes; Cunha,Adriano França; Pontes,Kelly Cristine de SousaABSTRACT The effects of volume on lumbosacral epidural block in dogs were evaluated using two different doses of 2% lidocaine. Ten adult dogs, without defined breed, were subjected to two different anesthetic protocols. In the first, the local anesthetic was calculated based on the body weight (GP), wherein 1.0 mL of local anesthetic was used for each 3.5 kg; in the second protocol, the dose was stipulated acco...
Microbiological viability of bovine amniotic membrane stored in glycerin 99% at...
Pontes,Kelly Cristine de Sousa; Ramalho,Camila Almeida; Borges,Andrea Pacheco Batista; Sepúlveda,Rodrigo Viana; Eleotério,Renato BarrosABSTRACT The medium for storing biological tissues is of great importance for their optimal use in surgery. Glycerin has been proven efficient for storing diverse tissues for prolonged time, but the preservation of the bovine amniotic membrane in glycerin 99% at room temperature has never been evaluated to be used safely in surgical procedures. This study evaluated the preservation of 80 bovine amniotic membran...
Enucleação em serpente urutu (Bothrops alternatus) no tratamento de endoftalmit...
Pontes,Kelly Cristine de Sousa; Carreta Júnior,Moacir; Augusto,Luis Eugênio FranklinA urutu, Bothrops alternatus, é uma espécie de serpente peçonhenta da família Viperidae e subfamília Crotalinae. Como em outras espécies, ela pode ser acometida por acidentes ofídicos em algumas situações. Relata-se o caso de uma urutu que teve a escama corneal traumatizada em decorrência do ataque de outra cobra do mesmo gênero há 30 dias. Ao exame oftálmico, notou-se a presença de crosta recobrindo exsudato c...
Comparison of pupil diameter and tear production in dogs treated with acepromaz...
Santos,Paulo Henrique de Albuquerque; Pontes,Kelly Cristine de Sousa; Pinto,Rogério; Rios,Paula Baêta da Silva; Silva,Gláucia Matos Marques daSome ophthalmic surgeries require induction of mydriasis, however, drugs traditionally used for this purpose significantly reduces tear production. To evaluate the effect of acepromazine and tramadol, used alone or in combination, on pupil diameter, tear production, heart and respiratory rate, systolic blood pressure and rectal temperature, these drugs were administered to seven clinically normal dogs divided i...
Preserved xenogenic amniotic membrane as a patch on the repair of superficial c...
Pontes,Kelly Cristine de Sousa; Borges,Andréa Pacheco Batista; Eleotério,Renato Barros; Reis,Emily Correna Carlo; Duarte,Tatiana SchmitzThe aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of canine amniotic membrane, previously preserved in glycerin, used as a patch on the repair of experimentally-made superficial corneal ulcers and to compare corneal epithelization between the treated and non-treated groups. Xenogeneic amniotic membranes were collected aseptically and preserved in 99% glycerin at room temperature. Each animal was anesthetized an...
Prevalence of periodontal disease in dogs and owners' level of awareness - a pr...
Fernandes,Natalia Alves; Borges,Andréa Pacheco Batista; Reis,Emily Correna Carlo; Sepúlveda,Rodrigo Viana; Pontes,Kelly Cristine de SousaPeriodontal disease (PD) is widely known among veterinarians for its high prevalence and serious consequences to the dogs. The objective of this study was to assess the occurrence of PD in dogs that live in the micro-region of Viçosa, treated at the Veterinary Hospital of the Federal University of Viçosa (HVT - Hospital Veterinário da Universidade Federal de Viçosa), as well as to assess how aware of this disea...
Glucosamine and chondroitin sulfate in the repair of osteochondral defects in d...
Eleotério,Renato Barros; Borges,Andréa Pacheco Batista; Pontes,Kelly Cristine de Sousa; Fernandes,Natália Alves; Soares,Priscila FerreiraAmong the proposed treatments to repair lesions of degenerative joint disease (DJD), chondroprotective nutraceuticals composed by glucosamine and chondroitin sulfate are a non-invasive theraphy with properties that favors the health of the cartilage. Although used in human, it is also available for veterinary use with administration in the form of nutritional supplement independent of prescription, since they h...
Processo de reparação de lesões da córnea e a membrana amniótica na oftalmologia
Pontes,Kelly Cristine de Sousa; Borges,Andrea Pacheco Batista; Eleotério,Renato Barros; Favarato,Lukiya Silva Campos; Duarte,Tatiana SchmitzOs eventos que fazem parte do processo de reparação de lesões da córnea ocorrem simultaneamente e envolvem proliferação, migração, diferenciação e apoptose celular, além da comunicação intercelular. Vários fatores solúveis, além de proteínas da matriz mesenquimal, proteoglicanos, enzimas proteolíticas e alguns tipos celulares são abordados nesta revisão, na qual explicam-se os processos de reparação de lesões s...
A comparison of the effects of propofol and thiopental on tear production in dogs
Pontes,Kelly Cristine de Sousa; Borges,Andrea Pacheco Batista; Eleotério,Renato Barros; Ferreira,Priscila Soares; Duarte,Tatiana SchmitzThe tear film plays an important role in maintaining the integrity of the ocular suface. During general anesthesia, tear production is considerably reduced, which requires care to prevent adverse effects that result in diseases of these structures. Studies comparing the effects of induction of anaesthesia with thiopental and propofol on tear production have not been carried out yet. Because these drugs are used...
