Peritoneal Reactivity Evaluation in Horses Subjected to Experimental Small Colon Enterotomy and Treated with Subcutaneous Heparin
Heparin is routinely administered in postoperative abdominal surgery aiming to prevent adhesions formation; however, there is no consensus indicating its effectiveness. This study evaluated the effect of heparin on peritoneal reactivity after abdominal surgery, through the association between peritoneal fluid features and ultrasonographic and laparoscopic examination. Ten adult horses were used...

A diet rich in alfalfa is one of the highest risk factors. The earliest symptoms include weight loss and repeated episodes of colic pain. Aims: To present the resul...
متن کاملAn evaluation of treatment with heparin in the haemolytic-uraemic syndrome successfully treated by peritoneal dialysis.
Nine children had 10 attacks of the haemolytic-uraemic syndrome in an 11-month period. One child had 2 slight episodes. The remaining 8 children each had a severe attack which required peritoneal dialysis and, of these, the first 4 were also treated with heparin. All the patients survived without sequelae and the rate of recovery of dialysed patients was unaffected by the use of heparin. Perito...
متن کاملEvaluation of three techniques for end-to end anastomosis of the small colon in horses.
In an attempt to determine the best method for surgical removal of devitalized small colon lesions, 12 horses underwent a double small colon resection and end-to-end anastomosis. In 4 horses (study 1), an appositional single-layer (APP-1) suture pattern was compared with an inverting 2-layer (INV-2) suture pattern. In 8 horses (study 2), an appositional 2-layer (APP-2) suture pattern was compar...
