COMMENTS

Most students currently enrolled in the College of Veterinary Medicine will acknowledge the diffishyculty hard work and frustrations involved in obshytaining the degree Doctor of Veterinary Medicine but they also will be quick to substantiate that those tasks wax pale compared to the ones encountered in gaining admission in the first place Eight hundshyred and sixty-five completed and bonafide applicashytions were processed for the class that started in September 1972 From these 130 candidates were selected (15) Eighteen young ladies and 112 young gentlemen with an average of 37 years of college or university preprofessional preparation and an average cumulative point hour ratio of 314 comshyprise the class Their average age was 226 years and 53 of the group had either a BS or BA deshygree and six had an MS degree

Competition for admission is keen Students realshyize that the absolute values of point hour ratios and other pertinent data are less important than how such individual data compares with that of each member of the applicant group The competition for admission to the class beginning in September 1973 will be even more intense Personally I feel fortushynate to be on the faculty as I am certain that today I would not qualify for admission as a student

Certain untoward effects are a possible accompashyniment of the prevailing highly competitive admisshysions circumstances It can lead to an imprudent prolongation of preprofessional university study Such prolongation may dull the motive to learn following admission It is expensive in time energy and money for both the student and the university at a time when better use of personal and public resources is everyones goal It may tend to promote more homogenity among those entering the professhysion than the diversity of veterinary services calls for In fact modern curricular design addresses itshyself to a heterogenity in skills interest and intelshylect In the idealistic situation one person would per-

fectly encompass every desirable characteristic for a career in one of the learned professions In biology we learn about individual variation and know that no winner of a beauty contest possesses the avershyage characteristic of all the contestants

The admission of students is probably the single most important thing which takes place in the colshylege The characteristics of the young people entershying the profession will determine the quality and to some extent the distribution and quantity of the veterinary services made available to the public in the future In addition to past academic performshyance the importance of the applicants sense and attitude toward a career in a profession merits serishyous consideration

It is impossible to measure in an arithmetic fashshyion those traits of personality and character which make a significant contribution to the success of any person whose function is to serve the public There are indicators which do help if used wisely We at the college believe however vetershyinary practitioners can be a great help in recruiting and advising us concerning the admission of stushydents When a real opportunity has existed for inshytimate association in a real working situation evalshyuation is most likely to have substantial foundashytion

Recruiting the best students and advising them conshycerning admission are among the most important contributions an alumnus can make to the college It is a serious matter Is the applicant the kind of person you would welcome as a colleague in your practice in your city or in your neighborhood Is the applicant reliable Can you depend upon him

WINTER 1973

What are his work habits Is there evidence of inshyterest and ability to work both independently (a self starter) and under supervision How dominant is the materialistic viewpoint about life How much respect for truth and humility is demonstrated Does he try and succeed in understanding the viewshypoint and situation of others How seriously does he take himself as compared to others How does he affect people

Does he or she persist in the face of difficulties Is there an expression of optimism and good hushymor What basis do you have for answering these or similar questions Can you cite specific events or occasions which helped to provide answers How many preveterinary students have you known well provided recommendations for and followed up after graduation You are often more qualified to provide information about values feelings and atshytitudes than are preprofessional teachers who may only know persons as students in classes ranging in size from 100 to 600 or more

We should never be complacent about recruiting and evaluating young persons who aspire to become veterinarians Promotion into our profession implies in a sense that the profession should be vitally inshyvolved and that such promotion rightfully could ocshycur from those who have experience within our own ranks A deliberate serious attempt represents quite a switch from the all too common procedure in which the request for a recommendation is followed by the comments sure be glad to whats your name and what does your father do

The admission of students is accomplished by a committee mechanism Many man hours of intense effort are devoted to the procedure Frustration is frequent The process is a human one and subject to human error All involved persons do try to do their work honestly They know that decisions must be made with whatever information is available and to try to put it to the best use possible

The college is currently planning to initiate a study of admission practices in cooperation with other Big Ten Colleges (Illinois Purdue Michigan State and Minnesota) in an attempt to determine what characteristics courses work experiences and other background are most important in an applishycant who will contribute significantly to the work of our profession We need to know more than what is required to do well in the veterinary college We must try to determine what it means to be a good veterinarian and then what applicants are most likely to develop in that direction We will need your assistance with this project and will be grateshyful for your responses to questions you might reshyceive from time to time

The Treatment and Clinical Course of Thermal Burns in CattleBy Daniel A Gingerich DVM

(On October 10 1972 fire broke out in the cattle barns at the Ohio state fairground in Columbus where the North American Dairy Show was in proshygress Most of the 1400 head of cattle were uninshyjured but cattle that were burned were taken to the OSU veterinary teaching hospital Dr Dan Gingeshyrich directed the care of the animals]

CASE REPORT

On October 10 1972 13 mature dairy cattle were admitted to The Ohio State University Veterinary Clinic for treatment of thermal burns sustained in a fire at the Ohio State Fairgrounds The animals were examined upon admission to determine the exshytent of the injury in each case as well as the genshyeral body condition

The percentage of the body surface affected by the burns was estimated by the method adapted from the human literature by Pierson et al (1969)6

by the following formula

to a more reshy in which the

above figures have been revised as follows

Head 4 on each side Neck 65 on each side Sides 315 each Lower fore 25 each

limbs Lower hind- 5 each

limbs Tail 1

The depth of the burns was estimated by examinashytion of the skin as well as by noting signs of sysshytemic effects A simple method of determining the depth of the burn is to pull a tuft of hair if it pulls out easily the burn must be considered deep if it offers normal resistance the burn must be superifical5 Hemaglobinuria as denoted by cofshyfee colored urine which shows up as blood on the urine labstix test is also a sign of more extensive involvement Hemoglobinuria was observed in 4 of the 13 cases

Exhibitors at the North American Dairy Show effected a calm and orderly evacuation of cattle from the burning barns in October

saving most of the animals from injury

Estimation of the extent and depth of burns however was found to be extremely difficult to accomplish with accuracy in cattle Notwithstandshying the best efforts of everyone involved to arrive at a good estimate some cases which appeared to be severely burned upon entrance proved to be only slightly singed while others which appeared to have discrete lesions on small areas later sloughed wide areas of skin A much more accurate assessshyment of the degree of injury and of the prognosis can be made several days after the burn

The method of classifying burns in the human is not entirely satisfactory for large animal burns1

In this report for the sake of convenience the term 2nd degree burns is used to denote partial thickness burns and the term 3rd degree burns is used to denote full thickness burns in which both the epidermis and the dermis have been completely destroyed The burns affecting these cattle were judged to be mostly 2nd degree or partial thickness burns although several cases had small 3rd degree burn areas and 2 of the cases were extensively afshyfected by 3rd degree full thickness burns

EMERGENCY CARE

Upon entrance to the OSU Veterinary Clinic the 13 animals were washed with soap and water and mefenide hydrochloride (Sulfamylon reg) cream was applied topically to the burned areas The latter was used based upon recommendations from the Shriners Burns Institute Cincinnati which handles

THE SPECULUM

human burn patients The pulse rate and character respiratory rate and character lung and tracheal sounds and membrane color and warmth were evalshyuated for signs of shock Eleven of the animals were given intravenous infusions of 2V2 dextrose in ringers solution or a similar product the dosage ranging from 4 to 16 liters depending upon the severity of the case and the response of the animal All of the cattle were given injections of antihisshytaminics and those animals that were not pregnant were given dexamethasone A course of penicillin and dihydrostreptomycin therapy was instituted in each case

DISCUSSION In cases of severe burns in large animals the

problem of most immediate concern is the likelishyhood of going into shock Shock by definition is a condition characterized by a disparity between the circulating blood volume and the capacity of the vascular system In thermal burn cases a number of factors may act in concert to produce shock

Fluid loss is probably the principal reason for the shock in burn cases During the first few minutes immediately following a burn a very rapid transfer of fluid from the intravascular to the extravascular space of the burned tissue occurs The peripheral resistance to flow decreases to very low values as resistance vessels dilate virtually maximally At approximately 1 hour following a thermal burn the wound edema is maximal in extent and by 2-3 hours leakage into tissues has slowed down8

Toxic factors from damaged tissues including considerable amounts of histamine or histamine-like substances arethoughtto play a role in the pathshyogenesis These substances have a very strong vasoshydilator effect and also cause increased capillary permeability leading to loss of fluids and plasma constituents from the vascular bed to the interstishytial fluid space2

Attempts have been made to implicate specific toxic factors released in burns but cross-transfushysion studies fail to demonstrate this However serum enzyme levels are frequently altered after cases of burning (Laing amp Barton 1966) and this is thought to be caused by the degree of general toxicity8 Liver damage renal damage and ulcerashytion of the duodenum (called Curlings ulcer in the human) are associated with severe thermal trauma Clinically hemoglobinuria is a readily visible sign of generalized toxicity and severe systemic inshyvolvement

One major effect of the above sequence of events may be a drastic reduction in the quantity of plasshyma proteins if the burns are extensive Conseshyquently the mean hydrostatic pressure of the vesshysels is thought to overbalance the reduced colloid

WINTER 1973

osmotic pressure of plasma further increasing the tendency for fluid to leave the capillary and enter the tissue space In experimental burns in dogs and cats however Arturson (1966) has shown that plasshyma osmotic pressure actually increases and that the osmolality of the tissue fluid is considerably higher in burned tissue than in normal tissue8 The main reason for the rapid fluid loss then is thought to be an increased osmotic pressure of tissue fluid in burned areas superimposed upon increased capilshylary permeability

Severe pain can be an additional aggravating factor in thermal burn cases Pain strongly inhibits the vasomotor center thereby increasing vascular capacitance and reducing the tendency for venous return This also contributes to the general shock syndrome

TREATMENT DURING THE ACUTE PHASE The use of intravenous fluids is strongly indicated

in the prevention and treatment of shock due to thermal burns in cattle as an aid to the restoration of the normal balance between blood volume and the vascular capacity An isotonic solution such as ringers solution or another balanced electrolyte soshylution may be used to augment the total circulating blood volume The cases in this report were treated with ringers solution to which dextrose was added to bring the dextrose concentration to 25 thus resulting in a slightly hypertonic solution Neither whole blood nor plasma were given The dosage reshyquirement varied from patient to patient as judged from the monitoring of the packed cell volume and total solids of the plasma It was impossible to preshydict the amount of fluids needed by estimating the extent and depth of burns Fluids were administered in 4 liter increments by continuous IV drip at a rate of approximately 4 liters per hour

The use of corticosteroids is indicated to aid in the attenuation of the toxic reaction The finer points of corticosteroid activity remains subject to some controversy but it is suggested that they do reduce histamine release by enhancing the stability of the lysosomal membrane and that they oppose capilshylary permeability7 At the rather low levels adminisshytered in the cases under discussion 20 to 30 mg of dexamethasone the main benefit is likely to be the general anti-inflammatory activity of corticostshyeroids rather than the treatment of shock per se

Antihistamines are indicated to reduce the effect of those histamines and histamine-like products which are released Both steroids and antihistashymines may be of great value early in the course of the injury to help minimize the extent of the damage

First Days at Vet Schoolmdash A Freshmans Impressions

By Kathy Haigh

As a freshman Ive seen heard and learned a great deal not only about biochemistry anatomy biostatistics immunology etc but also about all the people and faces Ive met and am still meeting since the first day of class last fall My intent here is to make no value judgments but I want to express my feelings which have developed through my educational and personal experiences as a Freshman in Vet School at OSU

In a word Im impressed with the organization of the school curriculum and educational facilities at our finger tips such as the autotutorial lab and the library I am equally impressed with most of the teaching staff and faculty The professors convey a sincere interest in the students and are willing to help in any way possible to present their subject meaningfully to the class Any student will admit that no matter what the subject is a stimulating interesting and well organized professor who comshymunicates with the student at the students level holds the greatest capacity for teaching and is deeply appreciated by the class

The freshmen have made a grand effort to stimushylate their social lives It originated as a beer blast at the Oar House with a special invitation from the bartender to celebrate finishing our first anatoshymy mid-term last fall By the end of that quarter we were finding good reasons to celebrate something just about every week We got an early start winter

Lynn Schutt has a question for Dr Diesem in the freshman anatomy lab

quarter and plans are in the making tor taking our beer blast party and a chartered bus for a day at the Kentucky Derby this spring

A great deal of emphasis has been placed on tryshying to determine the best possible system of grades and to implement that system successfully Unforshytunately for me grades up until this point meant everything to me for without good marks Id never make it into vet school Now Im trying to revamp my outlook and to say the least it is difficult I give my best of luck to those actively involved in this movement and offer myself as a guinea pig for the immune serum which will combat this Grade Disease which has grown in me since eleshymentary school I hope I dont have anaphalactic shock

Hog Cholera Strikes Eight States in 72

A hog cholera emergency on a national scale struck the livestock industry in 1972 and Ohio was one of the states hit the hardest Hog cholera reshysulted in the destruction of more than 94000 hogs in the United States in 1972 6000 of them in Ohio

The disease was found on August 26 1972 in Darke County and Ohio lost its hog cholera free designation Outbreaks of the disease also occurred in Georgia Kentucky Nebraska Tennessee and Inshydiana Indiana experienced one of the most wideshyspread infections Hog cholera was found there on September 1 and when the final quarantine was raised on December 8 19665 hogs had been found to be either infected or exposed to infected anishymals and were destroyed Approximately 17120 hogs were condemned in Carroll County Indiana alone Late in 1972 New Jersey and Pennsylvania were placed under statewide quarantine

Surveillance programs in Indiana and Ohio will continue Such programs are designed to intensify routine on-farm and market inspection until all threat of the disease has passed When the surveilshylance programs are over without discovery of new hog cholera infection the states qualify to regain their hog-cholera -free status

Secretary of Agriculture Earl L Butz declared a national emergency October 11 after hog cholera outbreaks in several states The National Hog Cholshyera Eradication Advisory Committee met in Decemshyber and made several recommendations concerning the crisis

To combat future outbreaks the committee recommended that federal quarantines and stateshywide hold orders be imposed on the movement of all swine whenever an outbreak occurs involving hogs which have been moved through a market

THE SPECULUM

The committee said that this combination of state hold orders and federal quarantines should include all states from which hogs were shipped to the exshyposed markets and to hogs which were shipped from that market as well as the state in which the hog cholera outbreak occurred

The statewide hold orders would be imposed temporarily until all hogs which had passed through exposed markets could be tracked down and the extent of infection determined Such action would greatly reduce the possibility of further spread of the disease

Other recommendations included identification of swine so they can be traced to the farm of orishygin more thorough inspection at all swine marketshying points tighter controls over the movement of cull pigs and intensified enforcement by state agencies of regulations requiring the cooking of food waste (garbage) before feeding to swine

The committee also recommended revitalization of state hog cholera advisory committees and revishysion of the present classification of states based on progress made in eradication of hog cholera States hereafter should be considered as either infected or noninfected the committee said The existing four-phase classification has provided for orderly progress toward eradication during earlier years when the disease situation varied much more beshytween states than at present

Dual Study Program Open to Veterinary Students

By David Wright

In 1965 the College of Veterinary Medicine instishytuted a program which allows students who have demonstrated proficiency in the professional currishyculum to register in the graduate school also Through this system the student receives both professional and graduate credit for certain approved courses In this way students can start early on a graduate degree and obtain up to 15 hours toward a masshyters or PhD degree instead of starting at the same level as a BS

To become dually enrolled the student first conshysults with the chairman of the department in which he wishes to do graduate work If the department chairman decides the student has the necessary qualifications for graduate study the student is given a letter to that effect and is assigned an advisor The letter is then given to the Secretary of the College of Veterinary Medicine The College Secretary will recommend the dual enrollment to the Director of Admissions if the College requireshyments have been met

Dr Thomas E Powers who was recently named as head of the program reported that normally a minimum accumulative average of 30 in the proshyfessional curriculum is required He said that deshypending on the particular individual and qualificashytions involved the requirement is occasionally lowered to the 27 required by the graduate school but in all cases the student must maintain a 30 accumulative average in his graduate work once adshymitted To receive a Masters Degree requires a minimum of 45 hours of graduate work and usually takes two or three additional quarters after receivshying the DVM to complete the research thesis and coursework Dr Powers feels that a more realistic figure is about 60 hours based on the work completed by students who have already received degrees through this program The minimum numshyber of credit hours for a PhD is 135

There are presently thirteen students registered in the dual program with four or five applicants anticipated next quarter It might be expected that these students are pursuing graduate work in prepshyaration for solely academic or research oriented cashyreers Although this is true for many an increasing number are planning to enter private practices and are seeking their advanced degrees as a means of providing more specialized service to their clients

Dr Larry Rowe a member of the Department of Veterinary PhysiologyPharmacology now comshypleting his PhD got his MS in the dual professhysionalgraduate program He started graduate work

because of a desire to become involved in active research particularly in the area of neonatal renal function From his experience in the program he cautions others contemplating the same course that it requires a considerable commitment of time and effort He confided that although I learned much I feel I neglected some clinical responsishybilities and even domestic responsibilities in order to be active in research and graduate education He advises others interested in the program to purshysue only a few graduate courses not at the exshypense of clinical electives and except in the case of the exceptional scholar not to take on a reshysearch problem until finished with the professhysional curriculum


Morris Animal Foundation Elects Two Board Members

Two veterinarians have been elected to the Advisshyory Board of the Morris Animal Foundation Denver They will give scientific guidance to the public foundation which sponsors research into diseases of companion animals

James H Gillespie VMD professor and chairshyman Department of Veterinary Microbiology New York State Veterinary College Cornell University and Donald L Piermattei DVM medical director North Metro Animal Hospital Denver will serve three-year terms on the board as volunteers

Members of the Advisory Board review then accept or reject proposals for research grants subshymitted to the Morris Animal Foundation by veterinshyary schools and other qualified institutions Each year about half the proposals fail to meet the boards high standards for objectives scientific deshysign importance and qualifications of researchers

The foundation was established in 1948 by Mark L Morris DVM Topeka Kansas who perceived a need for research into diseases of the companion animalsmdashdogs cats horses zoo and wild animals Since then over 200 studies have been funded by the foundation

Other members of the advisory board are Benshyjamin Brackett DVM PhD Department of Obshystetrics and Gynecology Division of Reproductive Biology University of Pennsylvania School of Medishycine Philadelphia Jiro J Kaneko DVM PhD chairman Department of Clinical Pathology School of Veterinary Medicine University of Calishyfornia Davis Robert W Leader DVM Departshyment of Animal Diseases University of Connectishycut Storrs and Robert A Squire DVM PhD associate professor Department of Pathology and Animal Medicine the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine Baltimore

THE SPECULUM

PFMmdashInterdisciplinary Study at OSUBy Robert Hamlin DVM PhD

Five years ago under the leadership of Professor Herman Weed in the Department of Electrical Enshygineering the Ohio State Center for Biomedical Enshygineering was conceived The Center was formed to develop a curriculum and student body and to nurshyture research projects in the rather new field of biomedical engineering

Biomedical engineering is that discipline common to both engineering and medicine which uses enshygineering technology and theory for the solution of biological or medical problems One can imagine the many interfaces between engineering and medishycine eg data processing and information retrieval electronics biological control and systems analyshysis and operations research

Numerous subgroups evolved from meetings among personnel of the biomedical engineering center One such group devoted to the study of physiological fluid mechanics formed quite naturalshyly brought together by previous and ongoing reshysearch activities of various members

These members came from the departments of aeronautical and astronautical engineering (AAE) electrical engineering (EE) engineering mechanics (EM) veterinary physiology and pharmacology vetshyerinary pathology pediatrics and medicine The group was formed with the approval of the various deans and department chairmen Thus three colshyleges pooled personnel to form what is now the Physiological Fluid Mechanics group (PFM) most of whose offices and laboratories are located in the basement of Sisson Hall

Members are as follows Robert Nerem PhD AAE Rus Pimmel PhD EE Michael Wells PhD EM Robert Hamlin DVM PhD Vet Med Pramode Bhagat PhD EE and Vet Med David Gross DVM M Sc Vet Med Robert Farrell DVM PhD Vet Med Paul Ertel MD pediatshyrics Roy Donnerberg MD medicine and Phil Bromberg MD medicine

Dr Robert Nerem serves as the director of PFM and although an aeronautical and astronautical enshygineer by training and profession his experience in physiological fluid mechanics has been formidshyable He spent nearly 12 months at the Imperial Colshylege in England working with physicians on topics of physiological fluid mechanics The group at Impershyial College was unique Physicians and engineers worked together on research projects shared offices and seminars andmdashmost importantlymdashshared ideas and concepts ostensibly peculiar to each members discipline

Now at Ohio State University we have such PFM group devoted not only to the attack on reshy

search problems but also to development of a curshyriculum of instruction for biologists interested in this specialty of biomedical engineering

Previously at this and at other institutions throughout the country individuals have made such a paper and pencil commitment to one another or have visited each others laboratories and casushyally talked over data from biologic experiments At our institution however many members are housed in the basement of Sisson Hall sharing ofshyfices technicians graduate student assistants and secretaries thinking and working together for mushytual enrichment as well as for instructional and research programs Graduate students from the deshypartments of engineering work in Sisson Hall and one member from each college serves as the stushydents advisormdashalthough the major advisor remains in the college from which the graduate degree will come

Dr Hamlin checks the direct writing oscillograph This apparatus records blood velocities measured by the hot-film anomometer

and the pulsed doppler apparatus

A certain degree of misunderstanding among the associates was quickly resolved Some of the enshygineers thought that the biologists should merely give them data and they would scribble a few difshyferential equations on the blackboard and arrive at a quick and easy solution

On the other hand some biologists thought of the engineers as merely tool and die makers whose primary goal was to make the biologists more soshyphisticated equipment

In fact however the biologists problems are exshytremely complex because of the non-linearity of the systems that they use the inability to adequately

Continuing Education in 1973In this issue of the Speculum we are featuring two

excellent Continuing Education courses which will be offered April 24-25 and May 9 1973

Dr Charles Diesem has planned a course on Equine Surgical Anatomy which I recommend very highly to both equine specialists and others doing limited equine practice

Dr Ronald Chatfield and Dr William Muir have put together an intensive course on Canine Heartshyworm Disease which will cover the basic as well as the most advance approach to diagnosing treating and preventing this prevalent disease

Vernon L Tharp DVM Chairman Continuing Education Committee

In the equine surgical anatomy course the anatomy of the equine head limbs and genitalia will be stressed Live or unembalmed specimens will be used to make the surgical areas as realistic as possible Equine osteology arthology and surgical areas of the head will be studied with preserved specimens

All lectures will use the topographic anatomical approach The use of anatomical landmarks seen in the living animal and their relationship to surgical areas will be described The anatomy of the head as viewed with the endoscope will be presented in several lectures

In laboratory sessions participants will dissect areas of particular interest to them A discussion period will be scheduled during each laboratory to allow participants to discuss anatomical probshylems that they feel may be of interest to the group

All registration must be completed by April 10 in order to procure animals for the course If the minimum has not been reached by the deadline registration fees will be refunded The registrations will be limited to 30

The $100 registration fee payable in advance includes noon lunches surgical gowns gloves and dissection instruments Registrants who want to wear coveralls or use their own instruments are encouraged to do so Lockers will be provided for storage Parking is available in student areas adshyjacent to Sisson Hall

Ohio Veterinarians Oppose Ohio Plan At Meeting

Four major resolutions were adopted by members of the Ohio Veterinary Medical Association during their 89th annual meeting Veterinarians proposed action that would

1 Require a statewide program for inoculation of dogs against rabies

2 Require one member of the State Racing Comshymission to be a veterinarian

3 Allow the controlled medication of race horses up until midnight prior to a race

4 Do away with the so-called Ohio Plan requirshying professional students ii] state schools to repay the amount their educations are subsidized by the state

Veterinarians pointed out that rabies continues to be a health hazard to animals and humans in the state and that there is a reservoir of the disease in wildlife that cannot be effectively treated or preshyvented

The resolution said experience in other states has shown the effectiveness of reducing rabies and the exposure of humans to the disease through manshydatory inoculation of dogs

Rabies is still a highly fatal disease even though there is one documented case of a human recovering after contracting rabies Rabies is a cyclic disease and the number of cases in the state in recent years has varied from a high of 395 in 1962 to a low of 62 in 1970 There were 101 reported cases in 1972

While there have been only six human deaths due to rabies in Ohio during the past 20 years the number of dogs and the number of dog bites of humans has been increasing Physicians are often unable to tell if rabies is involved when a person is bitten by a dog that has not been inoculated

An estimated 2000 persons in Ohio every year undergo antirabies inoculations of from 14 to 23 rabies vaccine injections plus antiserum in many cases because of the possibility they have been exshyposed to rabies

Members of OVMA said this number could be reshyduced if there was a statewide law requiring inocushylation of dogs They pointed out that there are varyshying requirements in different health jurisdictions and that many have no requirements at all

The veterinarians asked the 100th Ohio General Assembly to amend the law establishing a State Racing Commission to require that at least one of the five members be a licensed veterinarian

They pointed out that a veterinarian has expert knowledge of the problems and needs in providing sound horses for the states race tracks

Members of the commission are appointed by the governor with the advice and consent of the senate

(Burns cont from page 5)

The use of pain-relieving drugs has been found in other species to reduce the severity of shock due to thermal trauma by alleviating the neurogenic factor In these bovine cases it was extremely diffishycult to evaluate pain Analgesics were not thereshyfore administered to any of the animals

In human burn patients controlling infections is a grave problem Infections most commonly caused by Pseudomonns oeruRinoso contribute signifishycantly to the mobidity and mortality of man8 Clinishycal observations of burned cattle suggest that cattle are more resistant to wound sepsis than are hushymans4 However respiratory infections secondary to smoke inhalation or due to generalized stress may be expected Antibiotics should be administered as a prophylactic measure especially if there is a possishybility of extensive smoke inhalation or heat damage to the respiratory tract The cattle in this report were given a course of penicillin and dihydrostrepshytomycin therapy for 7-10 days None developed serishyous respiratory complications though 4 cases sufshyfered mild bronchitis 5-9 days following the fire

LONG-TERM COURSE Very few case reports of bovine burns have apshy

peared in the veterinary literature so it is difficult to make general statements about the overall clinishycal course in the bovine Kingman (1944) described cases of 3rd degree or full thickness burns in heifers4 Necrosis and sloughing of the skin occurred in these patients between 3 and 6 weeks following the burn At 8 weeks following a period of liqueshyfaction necrosis of the subcutaneous fat granulation tissue was extensive By 10 weeks granulation was complete and dry scabs covered parts of the burned areas At 16 weeks the areas were still red and covered with crust but epithelialization was occurshyring in some areas

Pierson et al (1969) described the course of cases of 2nd degree or partial thickness burns in cattle in three stages (1) shock and pain for 1 week (2) eschar separation for 2-6 weeks and (3) epithelshyialization and healing of the wound for 2 weeks to 4 months

Observations on the 13 cases in the present reshyport agree for the most part with the earlier reports mentioned above However it was found that the period of shock which was characterized by edema formation hemoconcentration pain and bewildershyment lasted no more than 24 hours Tissue edema oozing of serum from lesions hemoglobinuria and other signs had all subsided within 24 hours Esshychar separation in cases of 2nd degree burns beshygan as early as the 2nd week and was maximal by the 4th week Most of the superficial skin which sloughed revealed healed new skin underneath much of it complete with hair follicles The third degree burn areas became leathery and lifeless to

the touch by the 10th day accumulated serum underneath but did not actually begin to slough until the 20th day following the burn In 2 such cases of 3rd degree burns large areas of skin sloughed revealing necrotic fat and exposed muscle tissue no healing at all having taken place

Most of the 2nd degree burn cases were relatively uncomplicated and healing was progressing satisshyfactorily at the end of 2 weeks However burns involving vital body structures complicated certain cases considerably In 4 cases edema of the eyelids during the first 24 hours caused some discomfort Severe burns of the eyelids and subsequent sloughshying in 1 case caused tissue contracture which led to exposure keratitis In 2 cases swelling of the coronary bands and severe lameness occurred 2-3 weeks following the burn seemingly in the absence of direct thermal trauma to the area In 2 cases atrial fibrillation was detected on the 8th and 9th days following the fire No clinical signs of cardioshyvascular problems occurred but it is assumed that the atrial fibrillation was related in some way to the fire perhaps by causing certain electrolyte imbalshyances Evidence of bronchitis was of some concern

Seniors Doug Cunningham holding the bottle and Bob Kahan were some of the students who helped care for the burned cattle

after the fire at the fairgrounds

THE SPECULUM 12

between the 4th and 11th days following the burn One case of abortion of a 7 month old fetus occurshyred on the 12th day Burns on the teats of 1 cow caused so much pain that she had to be prematurely dried off Loss of tissue from the tips of the ears resulted in unsightly appearance of several animals but other than that 2nd degree burn cases healed well both functionally and cosmetically

Except for very early in the clinical course of the burns laboratory findings were unspectacular During the first few hours packed cell volumes were found to be elevated in one case up to 57 Hemoglobinuria was detected in 4 cases in each case it had disappeared within 24 hours White cell counts taken the following day showed moderate leukocytosis with an increase in the proportion of neutrophils Almost all of the cases showed some proteinuria SGOTs measured 1 week after the fire were all within normal limits

SUMMARY AND RESULTS Thirteen cases of 2nd and 3rd degree burns in catshy

tle were treated at The Ohio State University Vetshyerinary Clinic Intravenous fluids corticosteroids antihistaminics and antibiotics were administered within 2 hours following the thermal trauma and the skin was treated with mefenide hydrochloride cream All of the animals survived the acute epishysode Two of the animals with extensive 3rd degree burns had to be euthanatized approximately 1 month after the injury due to the complete loss of up to 50 of the skin Mefenide hydrochloride cream was found to be a satisfactory topical treatment both for its effect of softening the eschar and as judged from the fact that wound infection did not become a problem

Follow-up contacts with many of the cases indishycates that at the time of writing 5 months after the burn 2nd degree burns have healed well with satisfactory hair growth while healing of some 3rd degree burns is still not complete

The clinical course of thermal burns in cattle was found to be as follows

1 Period of fluid loss shock and pain 1st 24 hours

2 Period of eschar separation 2-6 weeks 3 Period of healing and epithelialization 2

weeks to 6 months

A Technique For The Surgical Management of Hip LuxationBy David Wright

In October 1965 while working at the Animal Medical Center New York City as a Staff Surgeon Dr R Bruce Hohn Associate Professor of Veterinary Clinical Sciences developed a technique for the surgical repair of hip luxation in the canine The surgery uses trochanteric osteotomy (Gorman Apshyproach) combined with capsulorrhaphy and reshyplacement of the greater trochanter distal and slightly caudal to its original position In this way femoral head is rotated deeper into the acetabulum and the limb is abducted due to the normal pull of the gluteus muscles This rotation and abduction firmly seat the joint which facilitates healing of damaged tissues and creates a more stable joint

Surgery is indicated for the repair of hip luxation in cases that cannot be reduced by closed techshyniques where some structure becomes interposed between the head of the femor and the acetabulum or in cases which will not remain reduced in spite of immobilization With old luxations where the femoral head has been displaced for a significant length of time it may become physically impossible to reduce the luxation using closed manipulation and therefore require reduction by surgical invashysion In cases where a flap of ruptured joint capshysule andor a blood clot interpose between the femoral head and the acetabulum correct healing and seating of the joint cannot occur Correct seatshying of the joint can also be prevented when an osteochondral fracture is present These usually are chip fractures associated with the round ligaments of the head of the femor Surgery is also indicated with chronic or recurring luxation where the anashytomic support of the hip is severely disrupted Exshyamples of this are the absence of the cartilaginshyous labrum severe tearing of the surrounding capshysule andor muscular support fracture of the dorsal acetabular rim and a shallow acetabulum

Dr Hohns technique uses the Gorman approach to the hip which provides the greatest exposure of the joint and allows the relocation of the greater trochanter A crescent-shaped skin incision is made beginning midway between the wing and body of the ilium extending caudoventrally below the greater trochanter and then curves dorsally to the ischiatic tuberosity The underlying musculature is exposed by developing a dorsal flap of the skin and subcutaneous tissue The muscles exposed are the superficial gluteal medial gluteal tensor fascia latae and the biceps femoris The biceps femoris is retracted caudally after being separated from the tensor fascia latae which is retracted crainally This exposes the sciatic nerve and the greater trochanter on which the three gluteal muscles insert and the vastus latevalis muscles takes its origin Because

of its origin at the lower margin of the greater troshychanter the vastus latevalis is cut as an osteotone is driven through the epiphyseal line to separate the greater trochanter from the femoral shaft By reshyflecting the greater trochanter and the attached gluteals dorsally the joint is exposed The joint capshysule is incised in a curvilinear position and the acetabulum may be cleared of blood and debris and any osteocaudral chips may be removed Once the joint is reduced a capsulorrhaphy is done using non-absorbable suture except when damage has been so great as to prevent suturing the capsule Using the osteotone a new bed is created for the greater trochanter just distal and slightly caudal to its normal site The trochanter is fixed in its new site by three stille nails or three Kirschner wires or by the tension band wire technique depending on the size of the animal The vastus latevalis is sushytured to the insertion of the superficial gluteal and the incision is closed routinely Following surgery the limb should be placed in an Ehmer sling for 10 days and normal postoperative care provided With short-limbed breeds of dogs the leg will reshymain in abudction post-operatively due to the pull of the gluteal muscles but will correct itself in several days as the muscles stretch

In cases with severe acetabular dysplasia where a joint no longer has structural integirty this operashytion may not be adequate In these cases other methods such as pelvic osteotomy or excision orthshyroplastry must be considered However in surgery cases with the anatomical integrity of the acetabushylum and femoral head intact Dr Hohns technique preserves the normal function of the joint and avoids the use of foreign material implants The proshycedure is mechanically relatively easy and has been proven clinically to be a valuable surgical tool for the management of hip luxation in the dog

Pre-Vet Association Plans Eastern Trip

By Ron Huitger

The Ohio State University Pre-Veterinary Medical Association had a very exciting winter quarter At the first meeting the club had the pleasure of seeing a pilot and guard dog demonstration given by Stanshyley and Walter Doran of Doran Inc The second meeting took the clubs members to several small animal hospitals in the Columbus area A tour of the new Veterinary Hospital facilities and a small anishymal surgery demonstration were the activities of the later meetings

At the present time the club is planning its annual spring weekend trip This year the club hopes to visit standardbred and thoroughbred farms in the Pennsylvania and Virginia area with a side trip to Washington DC The club is also working hard on plans for the lunch it serves to visitors on the Pre-Veterinary Career Day which is April 14 sponsored by the College of Veterinary Medicine Money earned from lunch will be used to help finance next years spring weekend

Phantom Finn Wins Again At 61 Im good for three or four yearsmdashthen some

young 60-year-old will come along and push me out In the Spring 1971 issue of the Speculum we reported on Dr William Andberg the Gray Ghost of Anoka Minnesota He was then in training for the International Veterans Track and Field Meet in Cologne West Germany a meet for athletes forty and over

Bullet Bill who got his DVM from Ohio State in 1939 won ten of eleven races captured the world championship in the 5000 meter run for his age group and set a new world record in the 1500 meter run for those over 60 at the games in Cologne

After he returned to his veterinary practice in Anoka Andberg said I ran three races on three consecutive days and on the last day won the world title I didnt believe I could run so many good races at my age with no practice in between

Although Andberg is a winner thats not why he runs The trouble in America is that we think we must win Im in running for physical fitness winshyning is just a fringe benefit Those I admire are the runners who never get up front but stay in the race anyway

Dr Andberg started jogging for physical fitness after his 55th birthday I was overweight he said I tried golf and bowling but it didnt satisfy me Theres no exercise in golf anymoremdashtoo much waitshying

WINTER 1973

The Phantom Finn as Andberg is also known runs five to ten miles a day through a local cemetery the quietest place I can find Some of my friends see my gold medals and say Now you can quit Andberg said Quit Why should I quit when Im on top Im going to run as long as I can stand up And if I ever slow downmdashwell they have walking races too you know

Womens Auxiliary Reports A Busy and Profitable Year

By Cheryl Sheard

The members of the Womens Auxiliary spend much of their time planning and working on speshycial projects The following items are just two of many activities which our group has undertaken this year

Our Chirstmas Auction was a great success again thanks to the wives who donated the 259 items sold by our auctioneers Paul Shockey and John Spiker The money collected for these items $58135 is indicative of the quality of the articles The auction committee was headed by Sandy Payne and Nancy Smith who really did an excellent job of organizing the event The Beef Raffle held in conjunction with the auction again this year was also a success Ella Mae Iman handled the arrangements and ticket sales for the raffle which was won by Ron Turrell a teacher in the Columbus Public School system We cleared $26095 on this event which made Deshycember 1 1972 a very profitable evening for the Womens Auxiliary It climaxed many hours of work and a special thanks to all of you who supported this project

We are sponsoring our second Pet Care Clinic of the year on March 3 for area Girl Scouts working on their Pet Care Badges This idea for a service project of this type was taken to the National Conshyvention this summer and we have heard that severshyal of the other Veterinary schools represented have instituted clinics for their service projects this year The Girl Scouts participate in a question answer period under the capable guidance of memshybers from the Student Chapter AVMA The girls generally are most concerned about their own pets and come up with some very provocative questions for the future veterinarians such as How do I keep my parakeet from having diarrhea all of the time or Is there any way I can break my dog of chasing his shadowmdashhes ruining our carpet and my mom is really getting mad The members of our group give lecturedemonstrations on various responsibilities of owning a pet grooming techshyniques and a film is shown The Girl Scouts are always very attentive which makes this one of our most gratifying projects

Florida Vet Does A Nose Job on A 2-Ton Patient

Dr Jesse White resident veterinarian for the Miami Seaquarium made veterinary history when he performed a nose job on Hugo the Seaquariums 4200 pound killer whale

Dr White was summoned when Hugo battered a bubble window in his tank with his nose After Hugo broke a nine-inch hole in the quarter-inch-thick plastic he lifted his head and the sharp plastic sheared off about an inch and a half of his nose leaving a flap of skin about 3V2 inches in diameter hanging from the base of the nose by a tag of skin three-fourths of an inch wide

The water level in the tank was dropped immedishyately to immobilize the whale and an hour and a half after the accident Dr White began surgery

The flap of nose skin was put back in place and held there with 40 stitches Dr White used the skin as a big band-aid to prevent infection and stimulate healing from the inside

Hugo is a performing killer whale like Shamu above the pride of Sea World in Aurora Ohio Hugo and Shamu are two of 19

killer whales in captivity now

No sedation was used The nose of a killer whale has few nerves and Dr White explained that it is connective tissue so tough that it could not be inshyfiltrated with pain killer to deaden any possible sensitivity

After surgery the whale was given a massive dose of 24 million units of penicillin and an equal dose of streptomycin Hugo also got an injection of Butashyzolidin to reduce inflammation and swelling The shots were continued every day for five days

As Dr White anticipated the nose flap sloughed off in a week and the stitches were removed reshyvealing that healing had started from the inside A bacterial agent a mixture of lanolin and gentian violet was applied to the nose several times a day with a long brush

Dr White expected Hugos nose to heal leaving a gray-white scar But six months after the accident Hugos nose had regenerated glossy black in the streamlined hydrodynamic nose shape The only indications of the disaster were tiny markings from the stitches and a slight dimple at the very tip of the nose

Dr White broke important ground in marine mammal veterinary medicine with his treatment of Hugo Only 19 killer whates are in captivity today and total of 26 have been captured and observed since 1964 (The full story of Hugos treatment appeared in the Spring 1971 issue of the Norden News)

(Dual Study cont from page 8)

Betty Jean Harper a senior Veterinary student enshyrolled in the program plans to enter a practice after graduation Her graduate training will benefit clishyents and she plans to continue her research inshyterests in reproductive physiology on a limited scale as time and conditions permit As her husband is a graduate student in Zoology and Animal Behavior at the University of Michigan she hopes that they will be able to work together on research projects Betty does not feel that the dual program is too much harder but admits she loses some lunch hours and evenings to extra classes and a lot of free time to studying Since she has been separated from her husband by their respective schooling the addishytional work is less of a burden For her senior elecshytives she has decided not to repeat the clinical sections and is taking a series of courses and semishynars toward her graduate degree Her schedule inshycludes a special studies course in radio-immune assay techniques under Dr Richard Ray in the Vetshyerinary Clinical Sciences Department and Dr W R Gomes of Dairy Sciences Veterinary Endocrinology Laboratory Animal Medicine a zoology project under Dr Peterle of the Department of Zoology Pharmacology seminar and a course on technical papers and thesis writings which she is auditing

The dual professionalgraduate program can provide a valuable opportunity for the student desiring advanced degree training to gain a head start while completing the professional curriculum but he or she must be willing to accept the hardshyships and sacrifices of the increased workload The value of this type of program to the Veterinary proshyfession will be determined by the growing demand for specialized services If present trends toward longer and more specialized practices continue proshygrams like this one will also grow

control numerous variables and the difficulty in obshytaining undistorted signals for study But what the engineer has to offer is not purely better instrushyments or computers to accumulate and permutate data The engineer offers a philosophy of thinking about biological systems as well-defined and conshytrolled systems and of thinking of diseased states as biological control systems that have lost satisshyfactory feedback to maintain homeostasis Followshying long periods of contact with exchange of ideas and knowledge each member of PFM gained reshyspect for each others knowledge and ideology

Specific research projects undertaken by PFM define and emphasize the value and necessity of the program

I Studies of arterial blood flow in horses The horse is a unique animal suitable for investishy

gating blood flow through the arterial system It is large enough and probably similar enough to man that detailed measurements of arterial blood flow may be made with existing instrumentation and the measurement extrapolated safely from horse to man

We are using an instrument called a hot-film anemometer which may be placed within various lamina of an artery and moved from layer to layer to determine velocity of blood flow across the entire cross-section of the artery From such velocity meashysurement the velocity profile can be established during all periods of blood flow This is important for a number of reasons If certain critical veloshycities are reached and persist for a certain duration turbulent or disturbed flow will develop and genshyerate murmurs or thrills which may be of diagnostic significance Wall shear stresses may adversely afshyfect the arterial wall and possibly result in arshyterial disease

At still other velocities the vessel wall may vishybrate because of the disturbed blood flow The vesshysel wall weakens and the vessel dilates or may even rupture These relationships between blood flow and arterial wall stress may be of particular value with respect to coronary circulation in which disease strikes most often The types of measurements reshyquired to calculate wall shear stress cannot be made in smaller mammals because of the size of exshyisting instrumentation The horse serves as an ideal model

The PFM group is investigating the use of an instrument called the pulsed doppler flow meter At present our PFM group is one of three in this country to have such instrumentation This instrushyment can measure velocity profiles without invadshying the animal By merely placing a sonic emittor and receiver on the skin and focusing to various depths until the artery is identified the velocity of red blood cells can be measured

WINTER 1973

Gary Geiger holds a constant temperature hot-film anomometer which measures velocities in arteries

II Studies on genesis of breath sounds Characterization and genesis of breath sound are

poorly understood Many feel that rales are proshyduced by water bubles breaking within fluid-filled airways Others feel that the sounds result from disturbed flow through airways and that this disshyturbance is great enough to produce sound akin to murmurs in blood vessels Still others feel that it is airways opening and closing during ventilation that produce certain abnormal breath sounds

Our PFM group is currently studying three asshypects of breath sounds Using hot film anemomeshyters we are studying velocity profiles in airways to establish whether or not disturbed flow occurs and to quantify the degree of disturbance and the frequency components of the changes in velocity Using digital computer techniques we are recordshying sounds from many points on the thoracic wall and analyzing these sounds by Fourier analysis-breaking them into sine waves of varying amplishytudes and frequency Lastly we are developing and testing new equipment for recording breath sound These studies are being performed on man dogs and horses in good health and with sponshytaneous diseases and on dogs and horses with varishyous iatrogenic diseases

III Studies on the effects of vibration on arterial blood flow

Workers who are subjected to long periods of high intensity vibrationsmdashjackhammer operators heliocopter pilotsmdashhave a predisposition to develop peripheral arterial diseases Astronauts during re-entry into the earths atmosphere develop periods of arrhythmia and alterations in systemic arterial blood pressure that are potentially harmful Anshyother PFM project is devoted to studying the sigshynificance of fluid mechanical changes in producing these effects Extremely high wall shear stresses are produced and these stresses may be responshy

19

sible for changes in the arterial wall and in reshysponses of arterioles to vibration

Support to sustain the research program of PFM comes from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration The National Institutes of Health The Department of Defense and the National Scishyence Foundation

An entirely different but complementary function of PFM is instruction Two parallel programs exist In one a formal group of courses is offered to biology graduate sutdents to familiarize them with PFM These include courses in linear systems systems analysis electronics fluid mechanics of blood and respiratory flow biomechanics and physiological control systems The PFM group also offers for engineers courses in physiological instrushymentation preparation of animals for experimentashytion and advanced mammalian physiology of the cardiovascular and pulmonary systems

In parallel is an informal series of discussions to keep the members of PFM in touch with each others work to permit exchange of ideas to invite interested guests to participate in the program and to formulate and discuss policies of instruction or future research activities

The pulsed doppler crystal measures velocities in arteries from the surface of the skin without invading the animal

Because of the government support of large intershydisciplinary programs of research and because of the exciting interchange and research productivity to date we have great hopes for continued exshypansion of the physiological fluid mechanics group in the College of Veterinary Medicine In summary this group is a heterogenous conglomerate of indishyviduals representing engineering medicine and vetshyerinary medicine devoted to the teaching and research of problems related to the flow of fluids and gasses in biological systems

(OVMA cont from page 11) A veterinarian has traditionally served on the comshymission although this had not been a requirement of the law

In a separate resolution the veterinarians asked that the racing commission adopt a regulation allowing for controlled medication of race horses

Under the present regulations a horse may not be given any medicationmdasheven aspirinmdashduring the 48shyhour period before a race

The veterinarians asked for a regulation that would allow horses to receive a restorative curative or therapeutic medicine providing there is no use of stimulants or depressants that would affect the racshying performance of the horse

The veterinarians also asked the commission to implement and expand pre-race blood testing programs at all parimutuel tracks in the state

The OVMA opposed the Ohio Plan as disshycriminatory and unfair Gov John J Gilligan proshyposed in his state budget for the next two years that students of medicine dentistry optometry vetshyerinary medicine and law pay back to the state the subsidies spent on their education

The association charged this would hinder the Ohio State University College of Veterinary Medishycine the only veterinary school in the state in its efforts to encourage idealistic and talented young people to enter the field of veterinary medicine

The resolution also pointed out that 20 per cent of the veterinary graduates enter government public service jobs that are not particularly high paying positions

OVMA said the average veterinary student incurs up to $15000 indebtedness in obtaining an edushycation and additional expenses of between $60000 and $200000 in setting up a practice

The resolution pointed out that there are inshycreasing numbers of livestock and companion anishymals in the country and only 25125 veterinary pracshytitioners in the Unived States to care for them

Veterinarians called on the state to encourage qualified people to become veterinarians rather than adopting measures that would reduce the numshyber of students

The resolution said the Ohio Plan is unfair in that it does not make charges against non-professhysional graduates who may go into high paying jobs It also said that professional school graduates repay their debts to the state through lifetimes of public service and of paying higher taxes to all levels of government

Alumnus Returns To Earth After Monkeying Around In Space

Donald B Gisler (DVM 55) liked monkeying around but he thought it was time to settle down During the United States push toward the moon Dr Gisler was the personal doctor for Miss Sam the monkey that paved the way for manned space flight

WINTER 1973

After leaving the Air Force in 1966 he served as an associate professor of laboratory animal medishycine at the Ohio State University College of Veterinshyary Medicine In 1971 he joined Dr Gilbert J Papay (DVM 55) in private practice in Toledo Ohio where they own the Country Side Animal Hospital After 12 years in research and space work I decided it was time to settle down with the family Dr Gisler said Dr Gisler and his wife and two children live in Sylvania Township near Toledo

He was an active research veterinarian in the Air Force from 1955 to 1966 Captain Gisler was directshying research on the effects of radiation on monkeys at the University of Texas when he was assigned to the space project As the veterinarian in charge of the Little Joe project he was responsible for the care research surgery and recovery of the animal space pioneer

It didnt take long to get emotionally attached to the animal as we trained and worked with it Dr Gisler said Watching that son of a gun take off on the flight was just unbelievable Getting the monkey back was the most rewarding thing of the project

Before the flight Dr Gisler planted sensing deshyvices in Miss Sam so veterinarians could check her respiration blood pressure and general reactions to the flight He also trained the monkey to pull a lever at the signal of a red light so researchers could see if the monkeys mental state was altered by space flight

Animals led the way into space because we didnt really know what was up there then Dr Gisshyler said Riding in a capsule identical to Alan Shepshyards Mercury I the monkey experienced elements of space flight such as weightlessness radiation and acceleration

Dr Gisler is now in the Air Force reserve and spends two days a month at various air bases and institutes doing research on space flight He was part of a team that made toxicology tests on Apollo space craft interiors and worked with germ-free anishymals in testing the moon rocks for bacteria

A native of Florida Ohio in the northwest part of the state Dr Gisler intended to become a farm vetshyerinarian but one thing led to another and there I was in space research he said

After years in research Dr Gisler enjoys his work in private practice Peoples pets are very importshyant to them he said With a lot of people its the only companionship they have Dr Gisler has kept his hand in the monkey business though He keeps Garth his pet monkey at the animal hospital He has to keep it cagedmdashIf I let him out he said he would let all the dogs out of the cages

DiagnosismdashAcute Pancreatitisby David Wright

Of the many cases which pass through an active veterinary hospital there are always a few which are particularly remembered These usually involve some unique experience an exotic disease or a colorful owner Some however are remembered not because of anything spectacular about the case but because they were an interesting diagnostic chalshylenge

Such a case was Samantha a three-year-old feshymale mixed breed collie presented for anorexia and vomiting of four days duration The dog was grossly overweight but appeared completely normal on examination so was given Derbazine to control the vomiting and sent home with instructions to bring her back if the problem persisted The vomitshying and anorexia did continue and she was brought in again three days later Although the animal was still active and alert she was now noticeably icteric Her temperature was 102deg and her pulse and respiration were normal Abdominal palpation was attempted but was inconclusive because of her weight There was no evidence of pain or palpation

Samantha was hospitalized at this point for tests and observation She remained in the hospital for three and a half days during which time she did not vomit She refused any food the first day but began eating RD prescription diet on the second day and she remained alert and lively the entire time Her temperature did go up to 103deg but otherwise no adshyditional outward signs of disease

The first blood work obtained showed a WBC count of 13800ww3 which increased to 19000ww3

-plus by the third day This suggested a possible inshyfective process but the nature of the leukocytois was unknown since differential percentages of the cell types was not obtained The PCV was 55 which is slightly elevated but is compatable with the history of vomiting and the dehydration which resulted Other results from blood drawn the first day were

BUNmdash20 mg Serum bilirubinmdash175 mg Total Proteinmdash84 gm100 ml Alkaline Phosphatasemdash175 IU SGOTmdash300 plus Sigma Frankel Units SGPTmdash375 Sigma Frankel Units Uric Acidmdash9 mg Serum Cholesterolmdash500 mg

Blood sugar values were obtained on the first and third days and were 130 mg and 80 mg respecshytively

Urine samples were collected for urinalysis on the second and-third days The results were

WINTER 1973

Sample 1 Sample 2 Color Clear yellow Clear yellow-orange PH 6 6 Specific 1035 1025

gravity Bilirubin 3+ 4+ Acetone Negative 2+ Blood Trace 1+

A phosphate enema was also given the second day to obtain a fecal sample The feces were clay-colored and foul smelling The flolation was negative for parasites

With the combination of clinical and laboratory data the evidence for liver involvement was subshystantial The high levels of SGOT SGPT cholesterol and uric acid implicate liver cell damage whereas the increased serum alkaline phosphate and the acholic feces were indicative of a concurrent obshystruction Icterow vomiting and bilirubinuria supshyport either liver disease or obstruction The increase in total protein was contradictory in that it was exshypected to be lower rather than higher with liver disease but as with the increased hematocrit this may have been due to dehydration

Differential being considered in addition to prishymary liver disease with bile obstruction or an obshystruction with secondary necrosis included liver neoplasia or a tumor secondarily involving the liver Also being considered were ascarids an intestinal obstruction and acute pancreatitis The possibility of ascarids was pretty well discounted by the negashytive fecal and the dogs age An intestinal obstrucshytion was ruled out since some acolic feces was obshytained with an enema The possibility of acute pancreatitis was considered more likely except that more severe physical signs are usually related with this disease and liver involvement is not normally seen

Further tests could have been run for serum anashylysis and serum lipase to check out the possibility of pancreatitis but on the basis of the liver involveshyment already evident it was decided to do an exshyploratory laparotomy Examination of the visera revealed a large mass originating from the panshycreas and incorporating a section of the duodenum at the opening of the bile duct and involvement of a large portion of the surrounding mesentary After consulting with the owner the animal was euthashynatized and a post-mortum performed during which the duo denum involved was found to be almost completely occluded

On the basis of the clinical appearance and apshyparent invasive nature of the mass it was conshysidered to be a neoplastic lesion arising from the pancreas A portion of the mass was preserved in formalin and later submitted to the Veterinary Pathobiology department at Ohio State University The histologic examination revealed it to be inflamshymatory apparently the result of acute pancreatitis

Whats A Nice Girl Like You Doing In A Place Like This

George the bald eagle has a problem that not even the Playboy Advisor can help him with He has an elegant new home going up at the Columbus Zoo but no one knows if it will be a bachelor pad or a ladys boudoir

Since zoo officials hope to breed eagles in the new flight facility they began to wonder if their specishyman is George or maybe its Georgina Now they are awaiting the results of a chromosome test and even that might not be conclusive If this test still leaves the issue in doubt a simple surgical proshycedure could decide the quesition

Mr or Ms George is the property of the Federal government An Act of Congress passed in 1940 says The bald eagle became the symbolic represhysentation of a new nation under a new government in a new world by that Act of Congress and by tradition and custom during the life of this nation the bald eagle is not longer a mere bird of biological interest but a symbol of the American ideals of freedom

George was the center of a lot of concern early in 1971 when the government threatened to take him away from the zoo (Speculum Winter 1971) George was housed in a 12 ft by 12 ft cage that was not suitable for public display and the government said he must be on view if the zoo was to keep him

Omega Tau Sigma heard about George during classes at the zoo and went to work on a Save the Eagle campaign that caught the communitys fancy Columbus youngsters worked to earn money to contribute to the fund and Columbus architect Byron Ireland offered a striking moderistic design for a flight facility

The facility will be 25 ft by 25 ft at the base widening to 30 ft by 30 ft near the top of the abstract steel tree which will be enclosed in plastic-coated mesh The structure will cost about $45000

Construction on the flight facility has been held up by the wet weather Zoo officials hope to have the identity crisis solved so they can move George and hisher mate into the cage by spring

An effective breeding program would help the plight of the bald eagle an endangered species In the wild DDT in the shells of eggs weakens them and parent birds crush them when they sit on them In captivity eggs could be incubated a move that could help save the species

O R Adams Lectures At OSU On Lameness In Horses

By Bob Wirt

If you are going to live off professionalism then be a professional

You do not graduate with respect you go out and earn it

Be honest with your client be honest with yourshyself

These quotations are indeed well-established axshyioms not limited in usefulness to the veterinary proshyfession Many students have heard the rhetoric and considered it the substance of generation gaps But no heads were turned as Dr O R Adams spoke these words at a recent AVMA student chapshyter meeting For no one nan doubt that such a man of energy and intellect as Dr Adams has helped to give veterinary medicine a plane of professionalshyism worthy of pride

Dr Adams visited Ohio State for three days in January as guest of the veterinary college and the graduate school During this stay he delivered three lectures on lameness in horses toured many areas of the veterinary college and talked with faculty and students

O R Adams lectures at the OSU College of Veterinary Medicine

Dr Adams lectures were stimulating and pracshytical His lecture to the student chapter was The Method and Approach of Diagnosis of Lameness in the Horse A stop-action projector was used to demonstrate the finer points of leg lameness Dr Adams suggested that the hoof tester is the stethoshyscope and thermometer for lameness diagnosis He was able to convince us that lameness examinations were not part of some strange voodoo cult but were indeed within our scope of performance if we would simply use available diagnostic equipment and the tool of observation

The second lecture sponsored by the graduate school pertained to navicular disease Dr Adams

WINTER 1973

suggested that the condition may be inheritable from the stand-point of conformation The disease starts as a bursitis with inflammation within the synovium Radiographic signs include enlarged nushytrient foramina and localized areas of necrosis

Dr Adams stressed the problems of diagnosing navicular disease through the use of the posterior digital nerve block Because of fibrous adhesions that may develop between the deep flexor tendon and the navicular bone the horse may continue to land on the toe despite the block due to the mechanical deficit He also outlined the problem encountered because of accessory innervation to the navicular from the anterior digital nerve thereby permitting a pain response despite the block Other complications such as inadequate anesthesia conshycurrent and bruising of the toe as a result of the conshydition were also mentioned

In this third and final lecture Dr Adams discusshysed hind leg lameness with students in the equine medicine and surgery elective offered by the Department of Veterinary Clinics In this lecture he differentiated stringhalt and fibrotic (or ossifying) myopathy of the semitendinosis by means of stop-action film and descriptive commentary He also discussed a range of topics from pelvic fractures to the wobbler syndrome

It is not unusual these days to come upon a disshycussion of a case in the clinic and hear the final argument begun with When Dr Adams was here he said Our lives have been touched for only an instant in time by this man But by his own words You have to contribute something before people will listen to you Dr O R Adams will alshyways have an audience among those who shared three days with him at Ohio State
