Early and aggressive fluid therapy is critical in correcting the metabolic complications associated with calf diarrhea. Oral electrolyte therapy can be used with success in calves, but careful consideration should be given to the type of oral electrolyte used. Electrolyte solutions with high osmolalities can significantly slow abomasal emptying and can be a risk factor for abomasal bloat in calves. Milk should not be withheld from calves with diarrhea for more than 12 to 24 hours. Hypertonic saline and hypertonic sodium bicarbonate can be used effectively for intravenous fluid therapy on farms when intravenous catheterization is not possible.

Exploring the Relevance of Indigenous Knowledges to Dementia Care in Nursing.

Nurs Philos

January 2025

School of Nursing, Faculty of Applied Science, University of British Columbia, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.

In this paper, we engage in philosophical inquiry to consider the relevance of Indigenous Knowledges (IKs) for reimagining dementia care for individuals living with dementia. We outline the limitations of philosophical perspectives aligned with Eurocentric academic knowledge, arguing that such knowledge relies on an individualistic view of self and neglects the body and embodied experience in dementia care. We demonstrate how a personal diachronicity perspective diminishes the importance of valuing the fluid and dynamic self-identities of persons living with dementia.

Treatment methods in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) are foundational to their theoretical, methodological, formulaic, and pharmacological systems, significantly contributing to syndrome differentiation and therapy. The principle of "promoting urination to regulate bowel movements" is a common therapeutic approach in TCM. The core concept is "promoting the dispersion and drainage of water dampness, regulating urination to relieve diarrhea," yet its scientific underpinning remains unclear.

Managing overactive bladder (OAB) in children is recommended to involve rehabilitation intervention including urotherapy, clean intermittent catheterization (CIC), and medication. However, there is scarce evidence on the management of OAB in children in Vietnam, as well as the effectiveness of combining urotherapy, CIC, and medication in managing this condition. We report a case of an 11-year-old female pediatric patient with OAB following aneurysmal bone cyst (ABC) surgery.
