Effects of vatinoxan on gastrointestinal motility, sedation, and antinociception during and after long‐lasting detomidine infusion in horses

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Sedation in horses is typically achieved using alpha‐2 adrenoceptor agonists, although their use is associated with multiple side effects. A peripheral alpha‐2 adrenoceptor antagonist, vatinoxan, can alleviate many of these. Objectives To evaluate the effects of vatinoxan infusion on gastrointestinal motility, sedation, and ...

Volume kinetics of lactated Ringer's solution in adult horses

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Fluid therapy in horses is primarily empirical. Evidence‐based quantification of the disposition of intravenous (IV) crystalloids used in clinical practice could enhance the effectiveness of fluid therapy. Objectives To determine the pharmacokinetics (i.e., volume kinetics: VK) and associated haemodynamic effects of IV lactated ...

Cardiac arrhythmia prevalence and risk factors in 24‐h electrocardiograms of sedentary horses

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Cardiac arrhythmias are common in horses, but their clinical relevance remains controversial. Objectives To describe prevalence and identify risk factors for arrhythmias that may warrant additional screening in a sedentary mixed‐breed population of horses.

Tracheal collapse rates in Kenyan working cart and pack donkeys

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Donkeys (Equus asinus) in East Africa are recognised as working with poorly designed harnesses and carts. The donkey cart used in regions of Africa, specifically Meru County, Kenya, appears to place the cart's weight solely on the donkey's mid‐cervical region.

Plasma C‐reactive protein and interleukin‐6 concentrations in foals during health and respiratory disease

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Early and specific diagnosis of bronchopneumonia in foals is important to prevent severe disease. In human medicine, C‐reactive protein (CRP) and interleukin‐6 (IL‐6) are important diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers in neonatal pneumonia in other species.
