Thromboelastographic tracings in retired racing greyhounds and in non-greyhound dogs.
BACKGROUND Bleeding disorders in patients with normal coagulation test results are frequently reported in Greyhounds. The purpose of this study was to compare Greyhounds to non-Greyhounds by thromboelastography (TEG). HYPOTHESIS TEG parameters in Greyhounds are different from those in non-Greyhounds. ANIMALS Forty-three healthy dogs (28 Greyhounds and 15 non-Greyhounds) based on the results...

متن کاملSerum creatinine concentrations in retired racing Greyhounds.
BACKGROUND Greyhounds frequently have laboratory values that are outside reference intervals established for dogs. Our recognition of increased serum creatinine concentrations in several Greyhounds posed a problem when evaluating a Greyhound with suspected renal disease.

متن کاملSerum protein electrophoresis in retired racing Greyhounds.
BACKGROUND Retired racing Greyhounds are becoming common as pets. Because of their unique physiology, results of routine laboratory tests are frequently outside the reference interval for dogs. Compared with other breeds, Greyhounds have low serum protein concentrations, but the concentrations of different serum protein fractions have not been reported. OBJECTIVES Our objectives were to evalu...
متن کاملEpsilon aminocaproic acid for the prevention of delayed postoperative bleeding in retired racing greyhounds undergoing gonadectomy.
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effects of epsilon aminocaproic acid (EACA) on the prevalence of postoperative bleeding in retired racing Greyhounds (RRG), and to assess its effects on selected thrombelastography (TEG) and fibrinolysis variables. STUDY DESIGN Double-blinded, prospective, randomized study. METHODS 100 RRG had elective ovariohysterectomy or orchiectomy and were administered EACA or...
