(“pampered pets”) reported celebrating their pets’ birthdays and over 60% reported celebrating other holidays with their pets. 1 Unsurprisingly, dog owners can experience stress associated with illness and death of their dogs 9 and many owners experience
potential for very large masses to partially obstruct blood flow in the caudal vena cava and portal vein; and by the systemic effects of general anesthesia. 14 Factors such as age and general health of the dog may also influence the risk of death in the
Anesthetic-related death rates and associated risk factors have been evaluated and reported for people 1 as well as for dogs and cats. 2–9 Such rates have steadily declined in human patients, and larger studies of dogs and cats have shown
The less common fatality type is sudden death, which is a very rare outcome, with incidence rates of the order of 1 sudden death/10,000 horse starts. An apparently otherwise healthy horse could experience sudden death, but without a full postmortem
behavior (eg, men are more likely to die by suicide, whereas women are more likely to attempt suicide). 10 Furthermore, the amount of detail available regarding circumstances of death is limited in the available US studies, as they relied solely on review
death and survival time in dogs with splenic hematomas and identified an 11% (4/35) rate of adverse outcomes. Dogs with adverse outcomes had survival times well below the overall MST, and they had suspicious or documented outcomes related to
-onset chondrolysis was diagnosed by use of radiography and arthroscopy. In vitro exposure of articular cartilage obtained from humans, 16,17 cattle, 16,18 dogs, 19 and rabbits 20,21 to bupivacaine results in chondrocyte death. In a clinical trial conducted to
Introduction During late summer of 2017 and again in 2018, a farm located in western New York (Farm A) reported outbreaks of sudden deaths in apparently healthy, weaned 3- to 4-month-old dairy calves. Losses accumulated over a 2-week period
-term impact of the occupational hazards of working in veterinary medicine. One way to evaluate the long-term impacts of occupational hazards is through mortality studies. Proportionate mortality ratios (PMRs) might also help identify trends in causes of death
described. 19,20 Aspiration pneumonia has been reported to be the most common cause of death in dogs with ME. 2,21 Alternatively, dogs with intractable esophageal disease may become malnourished, resulting in severe weight loss and emaciation, 21,22 or
