23/11/2024

ANESTHESiA - Anesthesia is a reversible deep-sleep-like state in which consciousness is switched off and the sensation of pain is suppressed. The vital vital functions, respiration and circulation are preserved. In almost all surgical procedures, anaesthesia is indispensable to protect the animal from pain. This state is maintained throughout the procedure by the administration of anesthetics and painkillers. In addition, your animal cannot be awakened even by strong stimuli, for example by a surgical skin incision. An anesthesiologist eg specialised vettech VASTA monitors and controls the body functions and narcotic status of your animal throughout the operation. The most important vital functions are continuously monitored and logged in order to ensure the highest possible safety for your animal. In addition, the veterinarian can intervene directly and thus, for example, administer regulatory medications to your pet during anesthesia.

After the injection of a painkiller and sedative, the animal anaesthetic is usually initiated with a fast-acting anaesthetic medication intravenously and then the animals gets intubated with a breathing tube to secure the respiratory tract.
Pets are thoroughly monitored after anesthesia in our station room until they are sufficiently awake and all body functions are stable. Your pet will receive infusion and painkillers after anaesthesia and will be kept warm. Not to forget TLC and the best part of being brought home to recover with your family… we wish good recovery to all our patients, do not hesitate to contact your vet clinic before anesthesia to be informed about the procedures, techniques and risks of the surgery to be performed - in our case it was a cystotomie to remove a star-shaped and painful Urolith (bladder stone).

PAPiLLOMAS - viral Papillomatosis is most common in young dogs and appear suddenly, with rapid growth and spread around the lips or the mouth cavity.
Occasionally, if these growths are numerous, dogs may bite them when chewing, causing the papillomas to bleed and become infected. Most cases of canine oral papillomas are self-limiting, meaning they go away on their own within 1-5 months as the affected dog’s immune system matures and mounts a response to the virus.
Pictured the same pretty young Irish
setter girl with various Papillomas on her lips, appearing suddenly and growing quite fast and therefore concerning her owner.
We could easily diagnose these papillomas and calm the owner - but please always contact a vet if new lumps, bumps or skin swellings appear on your pets. Often these need to be controlled by FNA (fine needle aspiration), that means to suck some of the cells with a fine needle from the tissue and have it sent to a special laboratory for cytology (control of the cells). Sometimes we need to perform a biopsy (excise/cut a small area of the tissue with unknown origin and send it for histology (control of tissue containing more and associated cells, leading to a more accurate diagnosis and prognosis… 👍

DANGER BAiTS - repost ! Yesterday Friday the 23rd of August morning prepared sausage pieces with needles have been found on Lessingstrasse, Kreis 2, Zürich - near Sihlcity!
The police is already informed as well as hopefully the dog community here! We do not know if the danger is gone and if and where some new baits might be hidden!
Please keep your dogs leashed, under control and call the police and veterinary emergency if in doubt… (make sure you practice and emergency stop signal with your dogs)🙏

HAPPY VET ViSiT - new ❤️ happy visits in our veterinary practice ! Why are positive experiences so important for your dog and cat, especially in a bit of a strange and scary place as the veterinary clinic??
We all know that the trip to the vet can be quite stressful for our pets, including the worried owners… But what if we could turn these visits into a more positive experience?
Happy visits are just that - visits to the vet that only contain positive experiences, no stressful interactions or controls for your pets… a relaxed atmosphere to check out the examination room, get some tasty treats and cuddles from our empathic team… all of this creates positive emotions and connections with the veterinary practice 😻. It’s a great way to show your dog that going to the vets doesn’t always mean something unpleasant is going to happen and that it can even be very rewarding, be fun and play time,
A positive visit to the vets can reduce anxiety and stress, not only for your pet, but for you as a concerned owner too! If your dog associates the practice with positive memories, the next visit will be much more pleasant for both of you…
Happy visits may even strengthen the bond between you and your dog.
These are just some reasons why we now offer these special „happy vet visits“ ! It’s not only a way to strengthen the connection between you and your dog, but also to ensure your dog that it is as comfortable and safe as possible in our veterinary clinic and that our staff is friendly and supportive (memorised yummy treats… lick paste and plate work wonders as well…).
Be it a booked appointment, a short positive visit in our waiting room or even a small training session in the treatment room - contact our professional staff to discuss the possibilities and find the perfect solution for your beloved furry friend..❤️ likes to thank .medicaltraining for the bright idea and text about happy vet visits… 🙏 thanks to our special and happy patient .ear_beagle.charlie

EMERGENCY COURSE / FiRST AiD FOR YOUR DOG - the first practical course for interested dog owners took place last Friday by sunny spring weather under a blooming fruit tree 😻. The course covered commonly occurring injuries, acute illnesses, the contents of a first aid kit as well as emergency cases such as bleeding, intoxication choking etc…When is my dog an emergency, when to rush to the veterinary clinic, how to prepare, transport an injured dog ? …. and most important how can I react at home, how can I help??? Would you know the NORMAL range of your dogs vital parameter and where to find them anatomical? The first practical exercises consisted of finding these important parameters… we also nursed us up to bandaging limbs as well as the head. See some perfect (healthy) patients throughout the course. Thank you to the motivated audience and Carolina .ch_zuerich for the organisation of the course. thanks for the vital parameter graphics

BEZOAR - Hairballs in cats (trichobezoars) occur naturally. It is caused by clumping of hair in the cat’s stomach. When cats clean their fur, they regularly swallows loose hair, which can form into hairballs in the stomach.
Usually these hairballs pass through the digestive tract, cats can also regurgitate the hairballs to spit them out.
Cat hairballs occur in both short-haired and long-haired cats and mostly do not cause medical problems. However some can not be removed by vomiting and can form into bigger bezoars, even calcificate, cause weight loss, chronic nausea ad vomiting, gastritis and even lead to problematic and live threatening ileum (blocked intestines)! There is an increased risk of the formation of problematic hairballs:
• Long-haired cats
• Indoor cats
• increased hair loss, e.g.during coat change (spring, autumn)
• in case of hair loss due to illness
• increased cleaning, e.g. because of
• Itching and psychological stress (psychogenic lick alopecia)
• Intestinal diseases or administration of medications that inhibit intestinal motor function.
Our short-haired cat patient had a history of vomiting, not eating and apathy. In our x-ray check (2nd and 3rd picture) we saw the culprit causing these problems and referred her to the to have the bezoars cleared by endoscopy. The kitty patient recovered quick and nicely… always contact your vet if your cat starts vomiting regularly with no obvious cause…😻‼️prophylactic treatments include regular grooming/brushing at home to get rid of extra fur/hair, feeding several times a day, cat grass, fiber-rich cat food, special supplementary feed … do not hesitate to contact your vet for more details on bezoars. Your team (thank you LYSSBACHVET for the 4th picture of an endoscopic bezoar removal)
