Unexpected intraoperative hypoxaemia in a healthy dog undergoing TPLO
Abstract A period of hypoxaemia was unexpectedly detected in an otherwise healthy 10‐year‐old dog undergoing tibial plateau levelling osteotomy surgery. Hypoxaemia developed approximately 10 minutes after the start of surgery. Simultaneously, the plane of anaesthesia was persistently light. Lung compliance was subjectively poor.

Concentration of C-reactive protein, magnesium and calcium in children with acute bronchoconstriction before and after therapy with salbutamol [PDF]
Introduction: In childhood, bronchoobstruction is mostly caused by respiratory viral infections. The aim of this study was to find out possible changes in serum concentration of magnesium and calcium (participants in bronchoconstriction), and ...
