Hepatic infection in a dog with cavitary lung disease.

A 9-year-old neutered male cairn terrier dog was initially presented because of inappetence, increased respiratory effort, and occasional coughing. A cavitary lung mass was diagnosed using CT and removed with lung lobectomy. Histopathology of the mass revealed necrosuppurative inflammation with acid-fast rod bacteria in macrophages, with spp.

Neurodevelopmental Outcomes in Neonates Surviving Fetomaternal Hemorrhage Compared with a Matched Unexposed Group in a Large Integrated Health Care System.

Objective:  This study aimed to assess short-term neurodevelopmental outcomes for neonates affected by fetomaternal hemorrhage (FMH) and compare them with an unexposed group.

Study Design:  A retrospective cohort analysis was conducted within a large integrated medical system spanning from 2008 to 2018. Neurodevelopmental outcomes of neonatal survivors of FMH were compared with matched controls.

ACVECC-Veterinary Committee on Trauma registry report 2020-2021.

Objective: To report summative data from the American College of Veterinary Emergency and Critical Care (ACVECC)-Veterinary Committee on Trauma (VetCOT) registry, with further individual evaluation of university and private practices and level I and II Veterinary Trauma Centers (VTCs).

Design: Multi-institutional registry data report, January 1, 2020, to December 31, 2021.

Setting: VTCs identified and verified by ACVECC-VetCOT.

2024 RECOVER Guidelines: Monitoring. Evidence and knowledge gap analysis with treatment recommendations for small animal CPR.

Objective: To systematically review evidence on and devise treatment recommendations for patient monitoring before, during, and following CPR in dogs and cats, and to identify critical knowledge gaps.

Design: Standardized, systematic evaluation of literature pertinent to peri-CPR monitoring following Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development, and Evaluation (GRADE) methodology. Prioritized questions were each reviewed by Evidence Evaluators, and findings were reconciled by Monitoring Domain Chairs and Reassessment Campaign on Veterinary Resuscitation (RECOVER) Co-Chairs to arrive at treatment recommendations commensurate to quality of evidence, risk:benefit relationship, and clinical feasibility.

2024 RECOVER Guidelines: Methods, evidence identification, evaluation, and consensus process for development of treatment recommendations.

Objective: To describe the methodology used by the Reassessment Campaign on Veterinary Resuscitation (RECOVER) to re-evaluate the scientific evidence relevant to CPR in small and large animals, to newborn resuscitation, and to first aid and to formulate the respective consensus-based clinical guidelines.

Design: This report describes the evidence-to-guidelines process employed by RECOVER that is based on the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation (GRADE) approach and includes Information Specialist-driven systematic literature search, evidence evaluation conducted by more than 200 veterinary professionals, and provision of clinical guidelines in the domains of Preparedness and Prevention, Basic Life Support, Advanced Life Support, Post-cardiac Arrest Care, Newborn Resuscitation, First Aid, and Large Animal CPR.

Setting: Transdisciplinary, international collaboration in academia, referral practice, and general practice.
