Study Notes
Oral Health
- Dry socket is more likely to occur when a blood clot does not form due to overirrigation of the tooth socket.
- To prevent pulp tissue thermal damage during ultrasonic scaling, use constant irrigation.
- Feline external odontoclastic resorptive lesions are also known as neck lesions on feline teeth.
Veterinary Anatomy
- The dental formula for the permanent teeth in the dog is 2 (I 3/3, C 1/1, P 4/4, M 3/2).
- Using the triadan system, the cat's first lower right molar is described as 407.
Virology
- Infections with the distemper virus are often fatal in unvaccinated ferrets.
Reptile Care
- It is safe to collect 5% of the circulating blood volume in reptiles.
- Most reptiles require ultraviolet light to produce vitamin D.
Anesthesia
- A gerbil should not be fasted prior to anesthesia due to their high metabolic rate.
Parasitology
- Onchocerca parasites produce microfilaria, which cause patchy alopecia and depigmentation.
- Toxocara, Paragonimus, and Dipetalonema parasites use snails as intermediate hosts.
- Sarcocystis is not a zoonotic parasite.
Pharmacy
- Guaifenesin is an expectorant.
- Dextromethorphan is an over-the-counter antitussive.
- Butorphanol tartrate is an analgesic and antitussive.
- Antibiotics are the drug group of choice for treating Lyme disease.
Urinalysis
- For a cast to form, protein must be present in the filtrate.
- Oxalate is the most common crystal found in canine urinary sediment.
- Urine specific gravity measures tubule function.
Parasitology
- Ascarid ova resemble strongyle ova in horses.
- Stomach bots are not found in ruminants.
Note: I have organized the notes into categories (e.g., Oral Health, Veterinary Anatomy, etc.) to make them easier to review and study.
Oral Tetracyclines and Diet
- Oral tetracyclines should not be administered with a high calcium diet.
Epithelial Cells in Urine Sediment
- Squamous cells are the smallest epithelial cells seen on a urine sediment examination.
Cast Formation
- Protein must be present in the filtrate for a cast to form.
Urinary Crystals in Canines
- The most common crystal found in canine urinary sediment is oxalate.
Urine Specific Gravity
- Urine specific gravity is a measure of tubule function.
Parasite Ova in Small Animals
- Ascarid ova resemble strongyle ova in horses.
Stomach Bots in Ruminants
- Bots are found in the nasal passages of ruminants.
Viral Infections in Ferrets
- Infections with the distemper virus are often fatal in unvaccinated ferrets.
Blood Collection in Reptiles
- It is safe to collect 5% of the circulating blood volume in reptiles.
Ultraviolet Light in Reptiles
- Most reptiles require ultraviolet light to produce vitamin D.
Anesthesia in Gerbils
- Gerbils should not be fasted prior to anesthesia due to their high metabolic rate.
