Lesson 1 Flashcards
due to stimulation of pain local receptors
pain
usually reduced activitiy
altered function
due to transient hyperemia
redness
due to increased blood flow
increased temperature
If a tissue gets damaged, what will happen?
Inflammation occurs
the process wherein neutrophils adhere to the swollen endothelial cells
margination
process of neutrophils migrating to basement membrane of vascular epithelium
emigration
caused by attraction of leukocytes to chemical substances produced in the site of tissue damage
chemotaxis
Give the 3 functions of Acute inflammation
Weaken the enemies, get rid of enemies, cleans up the battlefield
Give at least 3 clinical uses of NSAIDs
Analgesic, antipyretic, anti-inflammatory
they are used systemically in non-ulcerative keratitis (inflammation of cornea) in horses
Flunixin and Phenybutazone
Why should we give dogs aspirin before intraocular surgery?
To reduce postoperative protein content of aqueous humor
NSAIDs may also be given in cases of immunological diseases such as?
systemic lupus and rheumatoid arthritis
NSAID used externally as a counter-irritant
Methylsalicylic acid
used in horses in treatment of with inflammation assoc. with pain and lameness such tying up syndrome
Naproxen
Der. Of phenylpropoinic acid that can cause GIT irritation and bleeding but less frequently with aspirin
Ibuprofen
paracetamol is more appropriately called?
non-opiate analgesic
Paracetamol is not a NSAID but retains these 2 properties
antipyretic and analgesic effects
ketoprofen is approved for use in what domestic animals?
horses (US), dogs and cats (Canada and Europe)
Sodium salicylate shoud not be used to animals?
less than 30 days old
these species cannot metabolize and eliminate aspirin as readily as other species
cats
aspirin elimination is most rapid in
herbivores
aspirin elimination is slowest in
carnivores
aspirin elimination is intermediate in
omnivores
administered orally and converted to salicylic acid within few minutes
aspirin
drug treatment for osteoarthritic disease in horse
meclofenamic acid
drug treatment for endotoxin shock
flunixin meglumine
can be treated for chronic musculoskeletal disease in dogs
meclofenamic acid
it is effective to most colic cases excluding severe bowel distention or displacement
flunixin meglumine
can cause CNS disorder in horses and should not be given to dogs of fetal effect
indomethacin
treats equine colic, GI spasm, hypermobility in both large and small animals but banned for human use
dipyrone
toxic effects of dipyrone
agranulocytosis and leukopenia
animals should be monitor for ____ before use of dipyrone
hematologic conditions
phenylbutazone is widely used in
horses
toxic effects of phenylbutazone
agranulocytosis, leukopenia, tissue sloughing when injected extravascular
for treatment of soft tissue or non articular rheumatism (capsulitis, laminitis, bursitis)
phenylbutazone
effective for control of lameness associated with hip dysplasia
etodoplac
a new NSAID (similar to ibuprofen) specifically used to treat arthritis and osteoarthritis in dogs
caprofen
caprofen is not safe to these species
cats
adverse effect of caprofen to geriatric dogs
hepatotoxicity
rapidly absorbed in stomach and reaches 80% of its peak plasma concentration in 1 hour
piroxicam
metabolite phenylbutazone has similar properties as pneylbutazone
oxyphenbutazone
NSAID inhibiting chondrocyte and synoviacyte synthesis of PGE12
etodoplac
Reflex dilatation of small arterioles
vasodilation
pooling of blood in the area of inflammation results to
increased permeability
vasodilation results to
increased blood flow
Increased vascular permeability results in
exudation
may dilute or buffer any locally produced toxins
fluids and salts
can diffuse into the area of inflammation to support the macrophages
glucose and oxygen
composed of fluids, electrolytes, proteins, cellular elements and some inflammatory mediators
inflammatory exudate
what does Nk cells target
virus infected, cancer cells with no MHC
specialized lymphocytes that are active in non-immunological reactions
Natural killer cells
These substances mediate pain sensation
neuropeptides
induce vascular relaxation and inhibit platelet aggregation
Nitric oxide, Prostacyclin
formation of new blood vessels
angionensis
angionensis occurs in
wound repair, chronic inflammation, cancer
characterized by having nuclei with varying shapes (banded, lobed or segmented)
Polymorphonuclear cells
morphologically similar to basophil, but are predominantly found in tissues rather than in the circulating blood
mast cells
mast cell surfaces contain?
Immunoglobulin E, C3 and C5a
Platelets or Thromboxane generates? (3)
Thromboxane A2, Platelet-activating factor radicals, pro inflammatory cationic proteins
Immunoglobulins in the exudates may act as
opsonins
Responsible for body production- the humoral immune response
b cells
Responsible cell-mediated immune reactions
t cells
Specialized non-T and non-B lymphoid cells that are active in non-immune innate response
natural killer cells
