The effects of hyperbaric oxygen therapy on snake-bite-associated wounds in dogs.

Objective: To assess the effect of hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) on Crotalinae envenomation-induced wound swelling and severity and pain in dogs, and to describe the safety and complications of HBOT.

Design: Prospective, randomized, controlled, blinded study (2017-2021).

Setting: University teaching hospital, private veterinary practice.

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy in Equine Rehabilitation: Putting the Pressure on Disease.

There are several beneficial physiologic and therapeutic effects of hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT). The indications list for the use of HBOT in the horse has been developed through extrapolation from a review of human indications and from anecdotal clinical experiences. Hyperbaric therapy is a safe treatment option with very few side effects when administered properly.

Effect of morphine and flunixin meglumine on isoflurane minimum alveolar concentration in goats.

Objective: To determine the effect of morphine and flunixin meglumine on isoflurane (ISO) minimum alveolar concentration (MAC) in goats.

Study Design: Prospective, randomized experimental study.

Animals: Five adult, wether goats from 1 to 3 years in age, and weighing 24-65 kg.

Serum concentrations and effects of detomidine delivered orally to horses in three different mediums.

Objective: To compare the effect of orally delivered detomidine on head posture when administered alone or in combination with two different food items, and to determine the serum concentrations of detomidine after oral delivery.

Study Design: Prospective randomized experimental study.

Animals: Fifteen adult grade mares weighing 328-537 kg.
