A

– Fluid overload and life-threatening pulmonary edema
– Dilutional coagulopathy
– Hypoproteinemia
– Caution with LRS in liver disease patients

– Subcutaneous administration of dextrose may cause irritation and necrosis
– Human albumin may cause hypersensitivity reactions
– Caution with colloids in renal disease patients
– Hypertonic solutions should not be used dehydration

22
Q

Where the 4 ways you can get fluid therapy?

A

Intravenous
subcutaneous
intraperitoneal
oral rehydration

23
Q

Why would you use intravenous fluid therapy?

A

– Ideal route
– Essential in treatment of shock
– Necessary to place polyethene catheters

24
Q

Why would you use subcutaneous fluid therapy?

A

– Widely used
– Convenient
– Volumes given are limited and uptake is poor
– Inadequate for treatment of shock but may useful for maintenance after IV

25
Q

Why would you use intraperitoneal fluid therapy?

A

– Not widely used except for kittens and piglets where other routes are impractical
– Should not be used for plasma expanders

26
Q

Why would you use oral rehydration therapy?

A

– Very effective in reducing mortality in calves and piglets with enteritis

27
Q

What are the different levels of dehydration? Give the percentage of dehydration associated each.(5)

28
Q

Give symptoms associated with “mild or no evidence of dehydration” and “moderate dehydration”.

A

• Mild or no evidence of clinical dehydration (4%) – History of vomiting and diarrhea, and evidence of
thirst
• Moderate dehydration (6%)
– When the skin is lifted it will peak but will return to normal slowly
– The mucous membranes are dry but the tongue will still by moist

29
Q

33
Q

How would you treat systemic anaphylaxis?

A

– Epinephrine
• Slow IV, IM, or SQ at 0.01 mg/kg of 1:1000
• IV CRI
– Treatment of respiratory distress
• Intubation with endotracheal tube or perform
tacheostomy
• Supplemental oxygen if no airway obstruction
• Aminophylline if bronchodilation is refractory to epinephrine
– Cardiovascular support
• Hypovolemic shock secondary to increased vascular permeability
– Fluids (crystalloids or synthetic colloids)
– Blood products such as fresh frozen plasma for coagulopathy – Atropine for bradycardia if present
– Dopamine if refractory hypotension is present

34
Q

How would you treat septic shock?

A

– Antimicrobials
• Bactericidal
• Broad spectrum antibiotic combinations (e.g. fluorquinolone/β-lactam combination)
• Rapid systemic bioavailability preferably IV
• Maintenance with a specific antibiotic following sensitivity results
– Hypovolemia, hypotension and /or poor perfusion
• Fluids (isotonic crystalloids or colloids)
• Positive inotropes such as dobutamine
• Vasopressors such as dopamine, norepinephrine, or vasopressin are only used if volume resuscitation and positive inotropes failed to restore blood pressure
– Bacterial translocation from the GI may contribute to systemic inflammation during sepsis
• Placement of a feeding tube and enteral feeding or parenteral nutrition in vomiting animals
• Maintaining GI protective mechanisms (omperazole, ranitidine, sucralfate)
– Hyperglycemia should be avoided because it may increase systemic inflammation
– Supplemental oxygen
– Analgesics such as buprenorphine or ketamine but not morphine because it may increase inflammation
– Antiinflammatory agents
• Glucocorticoids are contraindicated except in patients
with adrenal insufficiency
• NSAIDs are contraindicated
• Human recombinant activated protein C has antithrombotic, profibrinolytic and antiinflammatory actions (studied in human clinical trials)
• Polymyxin B has antiinflammatory activity by binding to endotoxin from gram-negative bacteria

35
Q
