摘要:

Clinical signs of hyperventilation, muscle weakness and lethargy were recognised in a one-year-old female Bichon Frise and a three-year-old male Poodle. One dog was also hyperexcitable and pyrexic. The diagnosis of renal tubular acidosis was confirmed by demonstrating the tendency to an elevated urine pH, a low blood pH and low blood bicarbonate level, and by eliminating other causes of metabolic acidosis. Both dogs were treated with oral sodium bicarbonate resulting in improvement in their clinical condition and a return to near normal blood pH and bicarbonate levels.

摘要:

A severely dehydrated foal with a history of acute diarrhoea was presented to Massey University for treatment. Rotavirus was demonstrated in the faeces by electron microscopy. The failure to detect other pathogens suggested that rotavirus was the primary aetiological agent. Successful treatment of this case is described and the principles of treatment for diarrhoea, particularly fluid therapy, are reviewed. Antibodies to rotavirus were detected in the sera of nine mares and their foals on the stud that referred the case, indicating that rotaviral infection was probably endemic.
