“…Alves et al 23 compared laparoscopic ovariohysterectomy using three forceps techniques; their neutrophil enumeration results conlicted with ours. However, these results may be because the open technique performed is more traumatic.…”

“…17 However, in a study of cats, a postoperative increase in APPs was observed in the laparotomy group compared with cats that underwent laparoscopy. 23 This group used a long-incision open technique and did not report the surgical time. In cats, open ovariectomy could be inherently less invasive, and the duration of surgery could be a crucial factor in minimising tissue trauma.…”

Assessment of postoperative inflammatory markers and pain in cats after laparoscopy and miniceliotomy ovariectomy

Videosurgery is increasingly used in veterinary medicine. Compared with open surgery, it has been shown to cause minimal pain and promote a more rapid recovery. There are various methods of assessing pain and postoperative inflammation in cats, although their particular behaviours may make these assessments difficult. The aim of this study was to compare levels of postoperative pain and inflammation after laparoscopic ovariectomy with an open minimally invasive technique. Twenty queens were randomly divided into two groups based on the method of haemostasis and surgical technique: (1) laparoscopic ovariectomy using a miniloop (miniloop group (MG)); and (2) minilaparotomy using a Snook hook (control group (CG)). Heart rate (HR), respiratory rate (RR), end tidal CO2 (EtCO2) and body temperature were assessed using a multiparametric monitor during anaesthesia and surgery at defined surgical time points (preincision, left ovary manipulation, right ovary manipulation and skin suture). Blood samples (2 mL each) were collected from the jugular vein before surgery and 1, 12, 24, 48 and 72 hours, and 10 days, after endotracheal extubation for blood count analysis and to assess total protein and acute phase proteins (APP). EtCO2 and RR were significantly higher in MG patients (P<0.001). HR was higher in the CG group for the duration of surgery (P=0.01). Temperature was significantly lower in MG patients (P<0.001). Pain assessment by dynamic interactive visual analogue scale showed no difference between groups or at specific moments of time within groups. Segmented neutrophil counts increased at 24 hours postoperatively and peaked at 48 and 72 hours in MG (P=0.01). The most important result among APPs was haptoglobin, which peaked at 72 hours in MG patients (P=0.001). Patients undergoing minilaparotomy and laparoscopy showed comparable postoperative pain. However, inflammatory changes such as APPs and neutrophil counts were increased in the laparoscopic group.

“…In this group, there a peak followed by a decrease in white blood cell count was observed within 24 h, while in the laparoscopy group the peak was observed 12 h after surgery. Values with different small letters in a row and with different capital letters in a column are statistically significant at p<0.05; (ALVES et al, 2010).…”

Acute phase proteins (APP) are the group of blood proteins that the synthesis happens in a quick and intense manner in response to external or internal challenges, such as infection, inflammation, surgical trauma or stress. These proteins have been used as biomarkers of inflammation, infection and trauma in human medicine, but have been relatively under-utilised in the context of veterinary medicine due to the unknown diagnostic possibilities. The purpose of this paper is to update the knowledge about APPs in veterinary medicine, reviewing results from different studies suggesting possible clinical applicability of APP measurement as a valuable tool for veterinary diagnostic and prognostic.

“…High concentrations of major APP are usually related with infectious diseases, usually a systemic bacterial infection or an immunemediated disease (CERÓN et al, 2008;TROÌA et al, 2017). Even though APP should be analyzed together with white blood cell and neutrophil counts, they are the most sensitive in detecting inflammation and infection earliest in time (CERÓN et al, 2008;ALVES et al, 2010). However, the specificity of these proteins is low in detecting the cause of the process, being also increased in physiological states, such as pregnancy (PALTRINIERI et al, 2008).…”

Acute phase proteins (APP) are proteins synthesized and released largely by hepatocytes upon the occurrence of cell damage or invasion by microorganisms. This article reviews the use of APP in feline diseases, identifying their usefulness in the clinical setting, analyzing 55 published papers. Serum amyloid A, alpha-1 acid glycoprotein, and haptoglobin are the indicators pointed out by the authors as useful in monitoring the acute inflammatory response in cats. Although, APP measurement is still not routinely used in veterinary medicine, together with clinical signs and other blood parameters, was of clinical interest and applicability in diseases such as feline infectious peritonitis, pancreatitis, renal failure, retroviral and Calicivirus infections. Although, there are commercially available kits for dosing feline APP, assay standardization aiming technical simplicity, more species specificity and with less associated costs will allow routine use in feline practice, as it is done in the human field.
