A

~5-6 feet

You will examine the eyes in a dimly lit room with a light source ~5-6 feet away from the dog. Please note that your body/eyes may have to be lower than the dog’s eyes to get a tapetal reflex

Q

What is the normal temperature in an equine adult?

A

99˚ - 101˚ F

21
Q

What is the normal heart rate in an equine adult?

A

25 - 45 bpm

22
Q

What is the normal respiratory rate in an equine adult?

A

8-20 breaths/min

23
Q

What structure would you auscultate in the left ventral quadrant of the equine abdomen during a normal physical examination?

A

large colon

24
Q

What structure would you auscultate in the right dorsal quadrant of the equine abdomen during a normal physical examination?

A

cecum

25
Q

What structure would you auscultate in the left dorsal quadrant of the equine abdomen during a normal physical examination?

A

small intestine and small colon

26
Q

What structure would you auscultate in the right ventral quadrant of the equine abdomen during a normal physical examination?

A

large colon

27
Q

In the equine physical exam, ~how much time should you spend auscultating the right dorsal quadrant of the abdomen?

A

~2 minutes

A minimum of 2 minutes should be spent before making a judgement on the motility in the right dorsal quadrant (cecum). This is because the cecum has a regular rate of a few contractions per minute (so 2-3 contractions every 1-2 minutes)

28
Q

Purkinje reflection evaluation in the equine is a crude assessment of:

A

the anterior chamber of the eye

Q

What the hell is that?

A

corpora nigrans

dorsal and occasionally ventral proliferations of the iris into the pupil

30
Q

Name the paranasal sinus indicated by the red star:

A

Frontal sinus

31
Q

The equine maxillary sinus is divided into __________ and __________ compartments

A

The equine maxillary sinus is divided into rostral and caudal compartments

32
Q

What is the most common physiologic arrhythmia in the horse?

A

Mobitz I 2nd degree AV block

33
Q

If you’re properly auscultating the mitral valve in a horse, and you move your stethoscope 1 rib space forward and slightly more dorsal, what valve will you be auscultating?

A

aortic valve

34
Q

Where would you place your stethoscope to auscultate the tricuspid valve in the horse?

A

4th intercostal space on the right thorax

35
Q

What is the normal shape of the submandibular lymph nodes in a horse?

44
Q

What cranial nerves are tested by the menace response?

A

CN II and VII

45
Q

What cranial nerves are tested with the palpebral reflex in the dog?

A
