Abstract:
The main goals of marketing are the following: firstly, to attract new customers by emphasizing the potential value of the product or service offered and secondly, to keep the existing customers by keeping them satisfied with the product or service by constantly producing superior value and exceeding their expectations. Contrary to the U.S.A., where greatest achievements were accomplished in the field of marketing theory and application and its implementation into veterinary practice, as well as in appropriate perception of importance of marketing idea and philosophy, this issue has not been appropriately addressed in our country. The main goal of marketing in veterinary practice is not only to sell a product or service, but also to create mutual profitable long-term relations with clients. Disregarding personal reasons for practicing veterinary medicine, particularly in small-animal practice, the veterinarian should approach such practice as any other business activity that should provide profits. In that respect, it is of key importance to adopt marketing approach and management concept. The four basic marketing instruments are product, price, promotion and place that make so-called marketing mix, which is applicable also in the veterinary practice. In veterinary medicine, the product pertains to spent items (e.g. drugs, food) or veterinary services. By determining the price, the basis is the cost price and added profit margin, depending on the product or service offered. The promotion encompasses communication with the owners, presenting them products and services offered, describing the features of the clinic or infirmary, etc. Contrary to other business branches, position of veterinary unit is not so important, yet it must provide good communication with animal owner. The overall experience of the customer, starting from entering the clinic/infirmary until leaving it, must be professional, pleasant and effective. Only accomplishing this goal will enable competitiveness or justify even a higher price for a superior service.

Abstract:
Over 30 yr of technological evolution have resulted in sophisticated instrumentation for in-clinic laboratories, yet there is no regulatory oversight of diagnostic testing quality. Long overdue, the veterinary profession must address quality assurance (QA) of diagnostic testing. Each practice must weigh the responsibility for laboratory instrumentation test results that are often a combination of in-clinic and send-out testing. Challenges faced by clinic staff maintaining in-clinic laboratories include lack of training in QA and quality control (QC), lack of emphasis placed on QA/QC by instrument suppliers, QC financial and time costs, and a general lack of laboratory QA/QC support resources in the veterinary community. Possible solutions include increased continuing education opportunities and the provision of guidelines and other resources by national veterinary organizations; specialty certification of veterinary technicians; an increasing role of veterinary clinical pathologists as QA/QC consultants; and development of external quality assessment programs aimed at veterinary practices. The potential exists for animal health companies to lead in this effort by innovating instrument design, providing QC services, and exploiting instrument connectivity to monitor performance. Veterinary laboratory QA/QC is a neglected aspect of the profession. In coming years, veterinarians will hopefully find increased support for this core practice component.

Abstract:
Surgical site infections (SSIs) remain an important concern in veterinary practice. The purpose of this work was to determine the SSIs rate in the Surgery Clinic of the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, Timișoara and to correlate SSIs incidence with surgical wound classification by degree of contamination and with the use of antimicrobial prophylaxis and / or applied therapy. Records of all animals operated on between 2007 and 2017 were closely checked for development of postoperative wound infection and were reviewed. The rate of surgical site infection was 0.77%, and by categories was 0.70% in clean surgeries, 0.15% in clean-contaminated surgeries, 1.76% in contaminated surgeries, and 1.08% in infected surgeries. Baseline information for SSIs surveillance in our surgical clinic and for comparison with other studies was defined. SSIs frequency in companion animals in our service is comparable with the frequency observed in another studies.

Abstract:
Intestinal obstruction is among the most common causes requiring surgical intervention in the small animal clinic. The more proximal and complete the obstruction, the more acute and intense the signs will be and the greater the likelihood of dehydration, electrolyte imbalance and even death. Among the causes of intestinal obstruction, intussusception may be the one with the highest prevalence. It is usually of idiopathic origin, has no racial and sexual predisposition, and its highest incidence is found in young animals. Predisposing factors are often associated, such as parasitism, gastroenteritis and foreign bodies where the treatment is usually surgical. In the present study we describe a case of a feline, female, one year and two months old with intestinal obstruction, presenting with four days' emesis, hypophagia, dehydration and apathy. This work aims to contribute to the knowledge and alert to a rapid differential diagnosis of intestinal obstructions which is a frequent and important disorder in the small animal clinic and is not always diagnosed in time.

Abstract:
Laboratory animals have been crucial to the development of modern microsurgical techniques which are now routinely used in many clinical departments worldwide. In return, microsurgical techniques are important in biomedical research as they allow many surgical procedures to be performed on rodents instead of dogs, pigs or primates. This has obvious advantages in terms of low cost, the use of statistically valid numbers for comparison and the availability of genetically defined animals which are more likely to give valid answers to immunological questions. Microsurgical reconstruction is important in plastic, orthopaedic, urogenital, vascular and peripheral nerve surgery in man and it is likely that it will become part of every surgeon's training in the near future. In this review, the instrumentation essential to any microsurgical enterprise and the sutures available are described. Basic microsurgical techniques for end-to-end and end-to-side anastomosis of small vessels and for joining peripheral nerves, oviducts and other tubular structures are given in outline. Techniques for transplanting kidney, heart, heart and lung, liver, spleen, pancreas, small bowel, stomach, testicle, ovary and whole joint are only outlined but key references are given. Finally, some of the clinical indications for microsurgical reconstruction are reviewed.

Abstract:
An environmental survey of a veterinary teaching hospital for the presence of Clostridium difficile was performed using contact plates and cycloserine-cefoxitin-fructose with 0.1% sodium taurocholate agar. Clostridium difficile was isolated from 24 of 381 sites (6.3%). Growth was obtained from 4.5% (9/202) of sites sampled in the Large Animal Clinic, from 8.1% (13/160) of sites within the Small Animal Clinic, and from 20% (2/10) of sites sampled elsewhere. Fourteen of 21 strains tested produced toxins in vitro. A geographic association was found with areas in the large animal clinic where nosocomial C. difficile diarrhea in horses had previously been diagnosed. Several other sites with a potential for nosocomial transmission of the organism were identified. Areas from which C. difficile was isolated tended to be areas with high animal traffic, with increased chance of fecal contamination, and with rough, difficult to clean surfaces. This study documents the prevalence of this organism in the environment and its potential role in nosocomial disease.

Abstract:
Dissertação de Mestrado Integrado em Medicina Veterinária<br>Nos últimos tempos, com a domesticação animal, tem-se verificado uma crescente preocupação e consciencialização por parte dos proprietários de pequenos animais com a saúde dos seus, querendo garantir-lhes uma vida saudável e com qualidade. As doenças cardíacas, nomeadamente as arritmias, afetam frequentemente os animais domésticos, podendo culminar na sua morte, não infrequentemente súbita. Estas são muitas vezes intermitentes e os animais podem apresentar-se assintomáticos durante vários anos. Torna-se, assim, necessário e de extrema importância o diagnóstico de arritmias ocultas, que é possível através da metodologia de Holter. O método de Holter, ou monitorização eletrocardiográfica ambulatória contínua, consiste na aplicação de um monitor que permite obter um registo contínuo da atividade elétrica cardíaca durante as atividades diárias normais. Apesar da sua frequente utilização em medicina humana devido à sua mais-valia diagnóstica, ainda é um exame subutilizado na medicina veterinária. Este trabalho tem como objetivos demonstrar a exequibilidade da metodologia de Holter na prática clínica diária da medicina veterinária de animais de companhia, bem como realçar a sua importância no estabelecimento de um diagnóstico definitivo em determinadas doenças cardíacas. Após uma revisão bibliográfica sobre a metodologia de Holter, é apresentada uma descrição e interpretação de sete casos clínicos com diagnóstico ou suspeita de doença cardíaca, nos quais foi realizado o exame de Holter, com qualidade técnica razoável/boa. Em todos os casos clínicos, a realização e interpretação do exame de Holter permitiu o diagnóstico de arritmias cardíacas previamente desconhecidas ou a estratificação de risco de doença cardíaca previamente diagnosticada. Permitiu ainda o reajuste terapêutico para melhoria sintomática ou a instituição de terapêutica dirigida e poupadora de vida. Em suma, conclui-se que o Holter é um exame exequível em animais de companhia e que constitui uma mais-valia na abordagem diagnóstica e terapêutica de animais com doença cardíaca.<br>ABSTRACT - Practical use of Holter methodology in small animal clinic - In recent times, due to animal domestication, small animal owners have been more concerned and aware about their pets’ health, wanting to ensure them a good quality, healthy life. Cardiac diseases, namely arrhythmias, often affect domestic animals and may result in significant morbility and sudden death. These arrhythmias are often intermittent and animals may be asymptomatic for several years. It becomes, therefore, necessary and extremely important to diagnose occult arrhythmias, which is possible through the Holter method. The Holter method, or continuous ambulatory electrocardiographic monitoring, consists of applying a monitor that gives a continuous record of the heart’s electrical activity during normal daily activities. Despite its frequent use in human medicine due to its diagnostic value, it is still an underused exam in veterinary medicine. The aim of this study is to demonstrate the feasibility of Holter methodology in daily clinical practice of small animal veterinary medicine as well as to highlight its importance in establishing a definitive diagnosis in certain cardiac diseases. After a literature review on the Holter methodology, a description and interpretation of seven relevant clinical cases with known or suspected heart disease is presented, in which was performed the Holter monitoring with reasonable/good technical quality. In all clinical cases, the execution and interpretation of the Holter monitoring allowed the diagnosis of previously unknown cardiac arrhythmias or the risk stratification of previously diagnosed heart disease. It also allowed the therapeutic readjustment for symptomatic improvement or the directed and sparing of life therapy institution. It is concluded that the Holter is a feasible examination in companion animals and it is an asset in the diagnosis and treatment of animals with heart disease.

Abstract:
A acupunctura é uma forma de terapia baseada na Medicina Tradicional Chinesa, que consiste na introdução de agulhas finas na pele, desencadeando uma cascata de efeitos fisiológicos locais, regionais ou sistémicos. Apesar de ser amplamente usada no controlo da dor ainda é pouco utilizada como único método de tratamento. A nível científico, atualmente, é possível fazer uma análise mais profunda neurofisiológica da atuação da acupuntura e outras técnicas, amplamente utilizadas da medicina tradicional chinesa (MTC), com o auxílio das mais variadas técnicas de diagnóstico por imagem. Contudo, muitas das desejadas validações científicas de ações mais internas da acupuntura ainda não são possíveis de alcançar, mantendo-se apenas com uma base empírica milenar. Nesta monografia são abordados quatro casos clínicos de cães tratados com acupunctura e outras técnicas de MTC, permitindo demonstrar as variadas aplicações da acupuntura na prática veterinária como em: assistência à anestesia cirúrgica, recuperação de sequelas decorrentes da esgana, paralisia traumática de nervo facial e ainda recuperação de trauma crânio-encefálico severo (TCE). Todos os casos apresentados apresentam uma evolução, sucesso e recuperação positiva garantindo o bem-estar do paciente. Atualmente, a necessidade de melhorar as técnicas e opções de tratamento leva a que sejam recuperadas técnicas associadas a outras medicinas, seguras e efetivas, para tratamento de casos clínicos crónicos, onde a medicina convencional não alcança o sucesso e ainda auxiliar em casos agudos que podem ser geridos de forma a diminuir os malefícios para o paciente; Abstract: “The use of acupuncture in veterinary medicine” Acupuncture is a form of therapy in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), which consists of the introduction of fine needles into the skin, triggering a cascade of physiological effects local, regional or systemic. Although it is widely used in pain control, it is still rarely used as a treatment method. However, many of the desired scientific validations of more internal actions of acupuncture are still not possible to achieve, remaining only with an age-old empirical basis. This monograph deals with four clinical cases of dogs treated with acupuncture and other TCM techniques, allowing the demonstration of the varied applications of acupuncture in veterinary practice, such as: assistance to surgical anesthesia, recovery of sequelae resulting from congestion, traumatic facial nerve paralysis, and recovery of severe cranioencephalic trauma (CET). All cases are successful with successful recoveries. Currently, the need to combine different treatment techniques or options leads to the recovery of techniques associated with other medicines, safe and effective, for the treatment of chronic clinical cases, where conventional medicine does not reach success and helping also in acute cases where it can be managed to reduce harm to the patient.

A clinical case will also be described diagnosed with corneal sequestration, complementing the monograph with a description and discussion of it. Corneal sequestration in felines represents an ophthalmological pathology with ulcerative involvement, which is characterized by a degenerative process at the corneal level, promoting an accumulation of dark-colored pigment. Since it is a pathology refractory to medical treatment, its treatment of choice is based on surgical removal of the area involved by keratectomy, filling the lack of tissue through conjunctive grafts, corneoconjunctival transpositions, amniotic membranes or other synthetic materials.

Abstract:
Ultrasonography (US) is an essential imaging tool for identifying abnormalities of the liver parenchyma, biliary tract and vascular system. US has replaced radiography as the initial imaging procedure in screening for liver disease in small animals. There are few reports of the use of conventional and helical computed tomography (CT) to assess canine or feline parenchymal and neoplastic liver disease and biliary disorders. In human medicine the development of multidetector- row helical computed tomography (MDCT), with its superior spatial and temporal resolution, has resulted in improved detection and characterization of diffuse and focal liver lesions. The increased availability of MDCT in veterinary practice provides incentive to develop MDCT protocols for liver imaging in small animals. The purpose of this study is to assess the rule of MDCT in the characterization of hepatobiliary diseases in small animals; and to compare this method with conventional US. Candidates for this prospective study were 175 consecutive patients (dogs and cats) referred for evaluation of hepatobiliary disease. The patients underwent liver US and MDCT. Percutaneous needle biopsy was performed on all liver lesions or alterations encountered. As for gallbladder, histopatological evaluation was obtained from cholecystectomy specimens. Ultrasonographic findings in this study agreed well with those of previous reports. A protocol for dual-phase liver MDCT in small animals has been described. MDCT findings in parenchymal disorders of the liver, hepatic neoplasia and biliary disorders are here first described in dogs and cats and compared with the corresponding features in human medicine. The ability of MDCT in detection and characterization of hepatobiliary diseases in small animals is overall superior to conventional US. Ultrasonography and MDCT scanning, however, play complementary rules in the evaluation of these diseases. Many conditions have distinctive imaging features that may permit diagnosis. In most instances biopsy is required for definitive diagnosis.

Another aim was to attract interest to this issue, since hospital infections very often remain unnoticed or are not duly recorded, to propose measures for their prevention and control. A concurrent prospective cohort study was carried out. The epidemiological surveillance method applied was based on the active search of &#8220;clues&#8221; indicating the occurrence of ICS. All the patients submitted to surgical procedures under the day clinic scheme during the period proposed were analyzed through their clinical, surgical and anesthesic records, as well as through the collection of information from veterinarians, animal caretakers and owners. A total of 307 patients (356 surgical procedures) were analyzed from May 11 to November 11, 2007. Possible cases were evaluated by the researcher and observing veterinarians, with 34 ICS cases being identified among the patients submitted to surgery during the period proposed. Data analysis and hospital documentation provided a precise assessment of all the procedures carried out during the period and the dynamics of filling the hospital forms was also verified. The absence of a standardization of the records and prescribed surgical antibiotic prophylaxy was verified. A global ICS incidence of 9.5% was found, compatible with the rates described in the literature consulted and an incidence of 10.4 % in clean surgeries and 7.4% in potentially contaminated ones, with these indices being higher than those observed in the literature studied. No association among ICS, surgery duration time, orthopedic and non-orthopedic surgeries, with or without use of protheses. However, association between record of patient&#8217;s interference in the surgical wound and ISC occurrence were recorded. The following likely risk factors for ISC were verified: lack of a hospital infection surveillance process, non-standardized use of antibiotic prophylaxy, lack of norms and routine concerning the prevention and control of hospital infections, lack of adequate professional training and guidance, and non compliance to current legislation. Thus, based on the data investigated and observations conducted in this study, the need for actions was verified.<br>O objetivo deste estudo foi verificar a incidência de infecção do sítio cirúrgico na Clinica Cirúrgica de Cães e Gatos do Hospital Veterinário da Universidade Federal de Viçosa e a associação da ocorrência de infecção aos fatores de riscos já descritos. Objetivou-se ainda despertar o interesse para o problema, considerando que as infecções hospitalares muitas vezes passam despercebidas ou não são devidamente registradas, e consequentemente, propor medidas para sua prevenção e seu controle. Foi realizado um estudo de coorte concorrente prospectivo. O método de vigilância epidemiológica empregado foi baseado na busca ativa de &#8220;pistas&#8221; que indicassem a ocorrência de ISC.Todos os pacientes submetidos a procedimentos cirúrgicos, no esquema de ambulatório dia no período proposto foram analisados através de seus prontuários clínicos, fichas cirúrgicas e anestésicas, além de colheita de informações com veterinários, cuidadores e proprietários. Foram analisados 307 pacientes (356 procedimentos) cirúrgicos, no período de 11 de maio a 11 de novembro de 2007. Os possíveis casos foram avaliados pelo pesquisador e veterinários observadores sendo identificados 34 casos de ISC entre os pacientes submetidos à cirurgia no período proposto. A análise dos dados e documentação hospitalar propiciou um levantamento preciso de todos os procedimentos realizados no período e também foi verificada a dinâmica de preenchimento da documentação hospitalar. Verificou-se a inexistência de uma padronização dos registros realizados nos prontuários e da antibioticoprofilaxia cirúrgica prescrita. Encontrou-se uma incidência global de ISC de 9,5% sendo compatível com as taxas descritas na literatura consultada e uma incidência de 10,4 % em cirurgias limpas e 7,4% em potencialmente contaminadas, sendo estes índices maiores que os observados na literatura estudada. Não foi verificado a associação entre ISC, tempo de duração da cirurgia, cirurgias ortopédicas e não ortopédicas com ou sem utilização de próteses. Entretanto, registrou-se a associação entre o registro de interferência do paciente na ferida cirúrgica e a ocorrência de ISC. Verificou-se como possíveis fatores de risco para ISC: a falta de um processo de vigilância das infecções hospitalares, emprego não padronizado de antibioticoprofilaxia, falta de normas e rotinas referentes à prevenção e controle das infecções hospitalares, falta de treinamento e orientação adequada dos profissionais e falta do cumprimento da legislação vigente. Portanto, baseado nos dados apurados e observações realizadas durante o estudo, verificou-se a necessidade de providências no controle e prevenção das ISC.

Two, to facilitate and provide dosimetry for irradiating a large number of mice and rats to develop a murine model of radiation induced necrosis in the brain.</p><p> <b>Methods/Materials:</b> To test the dose calculation algorithm, we used a commercially available anthropomorphic head phantom and EBT2 radiochromic film to evaluate predicted vs measured dose delivery for the clinically accepted algorithm, which assumes a homogeneous treatment volume, and the convolution algorithm, which takes into account heterogeneities within the treatment volume. In addition, we designed and fabricated a novel phantom that could accommodate various heterogeneities along with EBT2 film and an ion chamber. We again evaluated predicted vs measured dose with varying material configurations for both algorithms. To assist the murine necrosis model, we developed a novel mouse positioning and irradiation system utilizing the Gamma Knife Perfexion that was designed to be accurate, repeatable and efficient. We designed an animal immobilizing planform that could be incorporated into the clinical protocol for acquiring patient image data, image registration, and treatment planning.</p><p> <b>Results:</b> We demonstrated that the convolution algorithm is accurate to within a clinically acceptable three percent in cases of extreme heterogeneities, and it is clinically significantly more accurate than the standard homogeneous algorithm when large heterogeneities are present in the treatment volume. In addition, we were able to facilitate the development of a robust murine radiation necrosis model by irradiating more than 1,000 mice to a spatial accuracy of within 0.5 millimeters in all directions and to within five percent accuracy of prescription dose.</p><p> <b>Conclusion:</b> During the course of this work we successfully completed two large undertakings that are representative of tasks often asked of a clinical medical physicist. First, to evaluate a treatment delivery option in the radiation oncology clinic and make evidence based recommendations for clinical protocols. And second, to provide a reliable and scientifically sound service to collaborators and outside research groups when physics expertise is required.</p><p>

O itraconazol é considerado o fármaco de primeira escolha para o tratamento, porém algumas espécies fúngicas têm demonstrado maior resistência a este antifúngico. Neste contexto, tem se buscado novos tratamentos, destacando-se pesquisas com plantas medicinais. Dessa forma, objetivou-se avaliar a atividade antifúngica do extrato hidroalcoólico de Bauhinia forficata frente a isolados de Sporothrix brasiliensis. A técnica de microdiluição em caldo foi utilizada para avaliar sensibilidade de sete isolados fúngicos (n=1 canino e n=6 felinos) frente a dez concentrações do extrato (100 a 0,19mg/mL), utilizando-se como controle positivo itraconazol (0,5-64 μg/ml). Nas concentrações estudadas foi evidenciada CIM de 100 mg/mL do extrato hidroalcoólico de B. forficata frente ao S. brasiliensis, porém os valores de CFM foram superiores a 100 mg/mL para todos isolados. Em relação ao itraconazol, cinco dos isolados (71,4%) apresentaram CFM de 64 μg/ml. Maiores estudos acerca da atividade da planta, utilizando outras formas de extratos, diferentes concentrações e outras partes vegetais devem ser realizados, visto que esta apresenta atividade frente a outros microrganismos, incluindo fungos, podendo vir a ser um bom alvo para estudo no tratamento da esporotricose.<br>Sporotrichosis is a subcutaneous mycosis affecting humans and animals and is caused by Sporothrix complex of fungi, including species S. brasiliensis. Itraconazoleis considered the drug of choice for treatment, but some fungal species have shown greater resistance to this antifungal. In this context, has sought new treatments, especially research on medicinal plants. This work aimed to evaluate the antifungal activity of hydroalcoholic extract of Bauhinia forficata against isolates of Sporothrix brasiliensis. The broth microdilution technique was used to evaluate sensitivity seven fungal isolates (n = 1 canine and n = 6 feline) against ten extract concentrations (100 to 0,19 mg/mL) , using as a positive control itraconazole (0,5 - 64 mg/mL). The concentrations studied was observed MIC of 100 mg / mL of alcoholic extract of B. forficata against S. brasiliensis, but the CFM values were greater than 100 mg / mL for all isolates. Regarding itraconazole, five isolates (71,4 %) showed 64 CFM/mL. Further studies on the plant activity using other forms of extracts, different concentrations and other plant parts must be carried out, as it has activity against other microorganisms, including fungi and could be a good target for study in the treatment of sporotrichosis.

Abstract:
Driven in particular by the availability of ever more refined imaging modalities — such as faster and higher resolution CT and MR, or hybrid PET/CT and SPECT/CT — and by a marked increase in computing power, advanced biomedical imaging — e.g. through its multidimensional and multimodal paradigms — is taking an ever bigger place in both research and clinical routine, and for both diagnostic applications and therapy management. While human modalities are widely publicized, there is a similar plethora of imaging systems for small animals, which permits relatively fast translation of successful image-based protocols from research evaluation to the clinic. Because of their characteristics and the need for more detailed information about normal vs. diseased tissues, modern modalities produce huge amounts of information and images. The only way to digest these is through advanced paradigms that combine or reduce the complexity of the information so that it can be interpreted by normal human beings. This presentation will introduce techniques and research or clinical applications of advanced imaging for both animals and humans.
