Rapid and reliable diagnosis of pulmonary contusions (PC) is essential to any veterinarian
treating trauma patients. PC occur commonly in dogs, cats, and humans that have sustained …

Objective To determine the accuracy of lung ultrasound (LUS) using the Veterinary Bedside
Lung Ultrasound Examination (VetBLUE) protocol and 3‐view thoracic radiographs (TXR) …

We describe the respiratory mechanics and lung aeration in anesthetized obese dogs
ventilated with tidal volumes (VT) based on ideal (VTi) vs. current (VTc) body weight. Six …

Background Human records describe pulmonary edema as a life-threatening complication
of electric shock. Successful management requires prompt recognition and intensive care …

The aim of this study was to evaluate the respiratory and hemodynamic effects of a low-dose
dexmedetomidine infusion [1 μg/kg body weight (BW) per hour], with or without a loading …

Objective To evaluate gas exchange, respiratory mechanics, and hemodynamic impact of
mechanical ventilation with low tidal volume (VT) in dogs with the use of positive end …

Objective To compare 5 cmH2O of continuous positive airway pressure with oxygen therapy
in dogs recovering from general anaesthesia with low SpO2 values. continuous positive …

The aim of this study was to evaluate the incidence of fluid responsiveness (FR) to a fluid
challenge (FC) in normotensive dogs under anaesthesia. The accuracy of pulse pressure …

Objective To evaluate the effect of 5 cm H2O of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP)
on laryngeal size in spontaneously breathing anesthetized dogs via computed tomography …

Objective To determine the specific lung elastance (SE L) in anesthetized dogs and to
evaluate the efficacy of a SE L-based recruiting airway pressure (RP aw) at improving global …
