“…These events are of course not directly comparable, but should perhaps make clinicians question the value of isolated CK measurements. A study evaluating CK in dogs undergoing laparoscopic ovariohysterectomy supported this view, concluding that CK was not useful as a measure of surgical stress as the postoperative increases of CK in their patients differed widely, despite their undergoing a uniform procedure 7 . Other authors have further suggested that when utilising CK as a measure of trauma, isolated measurements of CK activity are of little use.…”

The extent of trauma in a patient can be difficult for a clinician to quantify. A prospective study was performed on 2 groups of dogs undergoing either ovariohysterectomy or hemilaminectomy. The serum activity of creatine kinase and serum concentration of C-reactive protein were evaluated preoperatively and then at 4, 6, 8, 12, 24 and 48 hours postoperatively in both groups. The results were compared statistically both within and between the 2 groups. A wide range of results was found at each time point for both analytes although there were no significant differences for either analyte between the 2 surgical groups preoperatively. Thereafter there were significant differences in creatine kinase activity levels between the 2 groups. C-reactive protein concentration results were very similar in the 2 groups with no statistical difference at any time point. The results of this study suggest that the evaluation of CK and CRP at any one time point in a traumatised animal is of limited value. However, the evaluation of the trend of these 2 analytes, even over a relatively short time period, may allow for useful prognostication in clinical cases

Ten mixed-breed female dogs were used in the study. Abdominal wall lifting was performed with a sterilised cotton strip. Four portal sites were used to complete gasless laparoscopic ovariohysterectomy (GLOHE) procedures. The proper and suspensor ligament, ovarian pedicle, and broad ligament of the uterus, uterine artery and vein were coagulated using bipolar electrocoagulation. After the uterine body was coagulated and cut, the end of the cervix was ligated with a loop suture. Blood samples were obtained before the surgery, immediately after the procedure, and on 1, 3, and 5 d postoperatively for the determination of interleukin-6 (IL-6) and C-reactive protein (CRP). No significant surgical complications occurred. After gasless laparoscopic ovariohysterectomy, a significantly higher serum IL-6 level was found immediately after the surgery and 1 d postoperatively when compared with the level observed after traditional laparoscopic ovariohysterectomy (LOHE). However, no significant differences were observed in CRP level between GLOHE and LOHE. GLOHE proved to be a safe and feasible procedure in bitches.

“…For female cats and dogs, ventral midline, paramedian, flank, and laparoscopic approaches are acceptable and use of these approaches for ovariohysterectomy and ovariectomy in pediatric and adult patients has been described. 16,46,[197][198][199][200][201][202][203][204][205][206][207][208][209][210][211] For male cats, scrotal approaches are acceptable, and for male dogs, prescrotal and scrotal approaches are acceptable. Use of these approaches for castration has been described for pediatric and adult patients.…”

“…221 Ovariohysterectomy and ovariectomy-There are many acceptable variations of the surgical procedures that can be used to sterilize female cats and dogs. 16,46,[197][198][199][200][201][202][203][204][205][206][207][208][209]211,212,[222][223][224][225] The particular surgical procedure and its details, including the length and location of the surgical incision and ligation techniques, will vary depending on the program, the veterinarian's preferences, and the individual patient's needs. In all cases, complete removal of both ovaries is required.…”

As community efforts to reduce the overpopulation and euthanasia of unwanted and unowned cats and dogs have increased, many veterinarians have increasingly focused their clinical efforts on the provision of spay-neuter services. Because of the wide range of geographic and demographic needs, a wide variety of spay-neuter programs have been developed to increase delivery of services to targeted populations of animals, including stationary and mobile clinics, MASHstyle operations, shelter services, community cat programs, and services provided through private practitioners. In an effort to promote consistent, high-quality care across the broad range of these programs, the Association of Shelter Veterinarians convened a task force of veterinarians to develop veterinary medical care guidelines for spay-neuter programs. These guidelines consist of recommendations for general patient care and clinical procedures, preoperative care, anesthetic management, surgical procedures, postoperative care, and operations management. They were based on current principles of anesthesiology, critical care medicine, infection control, and surgical practice, as determined from published evidence and expert opinion. They represent acceptable practices that are attainable in spay-neuter programs regardless of location, facility, or type of program. The Association of Shelter Veterinarians envisions that these guidelines will be used by the profession to maintain consistent veterinary medical care in all settings where spay-neuter services are provided and to promote these services as a means of reducing sheltering and euthanasia of cats and dogs.
