{"title":"Pneumothorax suspected secondary to continuous glucose monitor placement in a dog.","authors":"Whitney K Sia, Jessica A Sun","doi":"","DOIUrl":"","url":null,"abstract":"The FreeStyle Libre (Abbott) is a human continuous glucose monitor sensor that has been used to monitor glucose concentrations in dogs and cats with diabetes. This sensor and other similar continuous glucose monitoring sensors are increasingly popular in veterinary medicine, specifically for management of diabetes mellitus. The sensor decreases veterinary visits and reduces the stress (and expense) of multiple blood sample collections needed to produce glucose curves. However, there are no established guidelines for sensor placement in small animals and, to date, no substantial complications have been reported. A 15-year-old neutered male cairn terrier dog with a history of diabetes and suspected inflammatory bowel disease with progressive weight loss was presented with acute dyspnea <24 h after placement of a FreeStyle Libre 2 sensor. He was diagnosed with a continuous pneumothorax suspected secondary to a FreeStyle Libre 2 sensor placement. Multiple thoracocenteses were completed but further treatment was declined, and the dog was euthanized. Key clinical message: This case highlights the importance of sensor placement selection, especially in small animals, and documents the first reported pneumothorax suspected to be secondary to a continuous glucose monitor placement. This specific complication has apparently not been documented previously.","PeriodicalId":9429,"journal":{"name":"Canadian Veterinary Journal-revue Veterinaire Canadienne","volume":"66 1","pages":"58-63"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11705176/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142945080","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Canadian veterinarians' collective experience with and clinical knowledge of imported dogs can provide valuable insights into this practice.Objective: To describe Canadian veterinarians' experiences with, and perspectives of, imported dogs in clinical practice.Procedure: An anonymous, online survey was circulated to Canadian veterinarians, via national and provincial veterinary associations, from April to June 2021. Responses were analyzed using descriptive statistics, univariable logistic regression, and content analysis.Results: A total of 524 responses were included. Veterinarians reported imported dogs mainly originating from the United States (89%) and imported via rescue organizations (92%). Few reported imported dogs arriving with core vaccines or parasiticides administered. Despite infectious disease concerns, only 14% routinely implemented enhanced infection-control practices with imported dogs in clinics. Resources outlining country-specific disease risks, foreign disease screening, and client education were deemed highly valuable for supporting clinical practice.Conclusion and clinical relevance: Canadian veterinarians' experiences reinforced gaps in the healthcare of imported dogs, highlighted inconsistencies in clinical management of these dogs, and identified areas in which educational resources could improve animal health and the practice of importing dogs.","PeriodicalId":9429,"journal":{"name":"Canadian Veterinary Journal-revue Veterinaire Canadienne","volume":"66 1","pages":"86-95"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11705182/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142945030","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A total of 299 dogs were included. Data obtained included signalment, comorbidities, cholesterol concentration, culture results, duration of hospitalization, cost of hospitalization, and outcome. An acute patient physiological and laboratory evaluation fast score (APPLEfast) was calculated for every included dog.Results: In septic dogs, there was no significant difference in cholesterol concentration between survivors and non-survivors. Cholesterol concentration was not significantly associated with disease severity in dogs with sepsis and there was no significant difference in cholesterol concentration between dogs with grampositive versus gram-negative sepsis. However, a higher cholesterol concentration was associated with longer duration of hospitalization in surviving dogs.Conclusion and clinical relevance: There were no significant correlations between cholesterol concentration and outcome, disease severity, or bacterial type in dogs with sepsis. Therefore, cholesterol does not appear to be a reliable biomarker of sepsis in dogs. Further research is warranted to understand the role of lipids in response to sepsis in dogs.","PeriodicalId":9429,"journal":{"name":"Canadian Veterinary Journal-revue Veterinaire Canadienne","volume":"66 1","pages":"79-85"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11705171/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142945037","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In addition, the potential impact of an increase in the daily mean temperature was evaluated.Animals and procedure: The earliest date of D. immitis exposure risk for dogs within a calendar year was estimated for multiple cities in Ontario, based on the time to accumulation of 130 heartworm development units (HDUs).Results: The earliest date of accumulation of 130 HDUs between 1996 and 2023 was May 25 (Windsor in 2012), and the latest was August 7 (Thunder Bay in 2004, Tobermory in 2014). The median date ranged from June 7 (Windsor) to July 18 (Thunder Bay). There were no significant changes in onset date over the study period for any location (all Q > 0.12).When 1°C was added to the mean daily temperature, the date until 130 HDUs was reached decreased by a median of 4.5 d for Windsor (range: 2 to 12 d), 7 d for Sault Ste. Marie (range: 4 to 17 d), and 6 d for Kitchener-Waterloo (range: 3 to 11 d). This resulted in an earliest date of May 19 for Windsor, June 8 for Kitchener-Waterloo, and June 18 for Sault Ste. Marie.Conclusion and clinical relevance: Described data suggest that current recommendations for heartworm prophylaxis in Ontario still provide abundant coverage for the estimated onset of risk, even when factors that could result in an earlier onset are considered.","PeriodicalId":9429,"journal":{"name":"Canadian Veterinary Journal-revue Veterinaire Canadienne","volume":"65 12","pages":"1285-1292"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2024-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11618997/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142799509","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A CT scan, complete blood (cell) count, biochemical analysis, rhinoscopy, biopsy, culture, histopathologic analysis, and surgical revision of enucleation were done. Complete blood (cell) count was unremarkable. Biochemical analysis showed mild hyperglycemia at 9.38 mmol/L [referral range (RR): 3.95 to 8.84 mmol/L] and hyperglobulinemia at 56 g/L (RR: 28 to 51 g/L). The CT scan showed a soft-tissue opacity consisting of a cyst in the orbit from the previously enucleated eye with a draining tract and a completed destruction of the nasal turbinates. Pseudomonas aeruginosa was cultured from nasal biopsies. Histopathologic analysis of the nasal tissue showed lymphocytic and neutrophilic rhinitis with edema. Revision surgery was carried out to remove the orbital cysts. Histopathologic analysis of the cyst in the left orbit revealed a distorted globe with almost all the ocular structures. Upon recheck a few weeks later, no discharge from the surgical site was observed. However, mild chronic discharge remained present in both nostrils. This is the first report of incomplete enucleation in a cat leading to chronic nasal signs. Removing the entire globe with the conjunctiva and lacrimal glands is important to minimize postsurgical complications. Key clinical message: This is the first case report of chronic nasal signs secondary to an incomplete enucleation in a cat. Key factors of the surgery include removal of the entire globe with the lacrimal gland, conjunctiva, and eyelid margin to prevent secondary complications.","PeriodicalId":9429,"journal":{"name":"Canadian Veterinary Journal-revue Veterinaire Canadienne","volume":"65 12","pages":"1248-1252"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2024-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11618945/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142799371","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
