Q1 Exam 3 Flashcards
4 categories of non-regenerative anemia
bone marrow disease, chronic inflammation, chronic blood loss, and low EPO
when to treat for anemia
when super symptomatic OR dogs below 20, cats below 15
darbopoetin
epo stim agent that is less likely to be reactive than epogen
PIMA
most commonly reported cause of bone marrow mediated anemia in dogs worry about thromboembolic disease, diagnose with bone marrow cytology:
-erythrophagocytosis
-erythroid hyperplasia
-erythroid hypoplasia
-MATURATION ARREST
PRCA
erythroid hypoplasia
aplastic pancytopenia
idiopathic most common and hardest to treat
feline neonatal isoerthrolysis
B queen, A tom
babesia diagnosis and treatment
capillary blood cytology
canis: imidocarb
gibsoni: azithromycin + atovaquone
platelet count for spontaneous hemorrhage or surgery
surgery: 50000 (still check clotting)
spontaneous: 30000
coccidioides route of infection
inhalation of arthocanidia
criteria for remission in VF
asymptomatic, mild static rads, IgM and IgG <= 1:8
which azole makes it into CNS and eyes
fluconazole
crackles
popping during inspiration
wheezes
low volume, high pitch on expiration
medical management of lar par
oxygen and steroids during acute crisis (UAL if severe)
p. kellicotti and filaroides
eating crayfish causes coughing blood
dog to dog transmission
TEST with sedimentation and zinc sulfate float
treatment for pulmonary edema
only O2 and time
sinonasal asper
clotrimazole infusion into nasal cavities and frontal sinus, good prognosis but often need second treatment
lymphoplasmacytic rhinitis
dachshunds, try steroids and antimicrobials?
eucoleus boehmi
nasal worms, fenbendazole
pneumocyssoides caninum
nose mite, ivermectin
bulla polyps
50% recurrence rate
blasto
more often in dogs, broad based budding, primary GM eia, secondary IgG eia, itracon
histo
cats, small clear capsule intracellular, primary GM eia, secondary IgG eia, itracon
crypto
cats, large clear capsule, primary GXM LCAT, flucon
asper
dogs, mold/hyphae, systemic primary GM serum, sinonasal can use antiboy ID, next gen azoles
degenerative in cervical trachea
collapses on inspiration
degenerative in intrathoracic trachea
collapse on expiration
gold standard of diagnosing tracheal collapes
tracheobronchoscopy (can grade it too in 25% intervals)
signs of tracheal compression
wheezing cough, terminal retch, increased difficulty on expiration
what should you do before bronhcoscopy in cats you suspect asthma
terbutaline
