“…It's possible to find intraluminal material that looks like inflammatory debris (Griffin, 2020). As the approach used by this study, the diagnosis of urinary tract illness can be carried out using clinical symptoms, anamnesis, urinalysis, period of the disease, and urinary tract imaging should be evaluated (Ergin et al, 2018;Lekcharoensuk et al, 2001). Ultrasonography can be used to examine the urinary bladder, including its wall's thickness, integrity, and the presence of intraluminal alterations such as cellular debris, cystoliths, blood clots, tumors, and lipid droplets (Biedak et al, 2023;Penninck & d'Anjou, 2022).…”

“…Several elements, including trauma, metabolic problems, anatomical anomalies, neoplasia, bacterial urinary tract infections, and iatrogenic causes, are implicated in the etiology (Ergin et al, 2018). In addition, bladder contusion is an intramural hematoma commonly seen but not classified as a rupture because of incomplete bladder mucosa damage.…”

A two-year-old, spayed female, calico, domestic shorthair cat (Felis catus) was admitted to IPB University Veterinary Teaching Hospital with a history of hematuria, constipation, and inappetence after being hit by a car. Clinical examination showed pyrexia and the presence of pain when the patient was palpated in the abdomen. Laboratory results showed leukocytosis, lymphocytosis, increased glutamic-oxaloacetic transaminase, increased blood urea nitrogen, proteinuria, over-creatinine, as well as blood and struvite in the urine. The radiographic analysis reported abnormalities in os vertebrae lumbalis I and radiolucent of the colon and rectum. Sonographic findings were cholecystitis, cholelithiasis, nephritis, enteritis, and cystitis. The treatments given were intravenous infusion with normal saline, a single Melovem® injection 0.35 cc, Dulcolax® one 5 mg tablet SID for two days, Samylin®Medium Breed ½ tablet once a day, Cystaid Plus® for cats SID one tab, phytomenadione injection 3 mg/kg SID for two days, Claneksi® syrups 20 mg/kg of body weight per oral BID for five days, Renate® SID per oral for eight days. On the second day of hospitalization, the patient had not pooped, so intra-rectal flushing with physiologic saline was performed, and the patient pooed with normal consistency each day after the enema procedure. Hematuria was observed during the first two days of hospitalization, while no hematuria was observed on the third day. The patient recovered after three days of hospitalization with no hematuria or other abnormal clinical signs or complications. The veterinarian discharged the patient with home treatment with the remaining oral medications.

Özet: Bu derlemede travmada sonografi ile abdomen odaklı değerlendirme (AFAST), travmada sonografi ile toraks odaklı değerlendirme (TFAST) ve başucu akciğer ultrasonografik değerlendirme (VetBLUE) yöntemleri ele alınmıştır. Ultrasonografik muayeneyi gerçekleştirecek hekimin çok detaylı olmasa da belirli bir seviyede anatomi bilmesi ve kullandığı cihazın modlarına hakim olması gerekmektedir. Bunun dışında muayene teknikleri için yaklaşık 3 ile 6 dakika gibi kısa bir zaman yeterli olmaktadır. Ultrason birçok yardımcı tanı aracının aksine non-invazif güvenli ve daha hızlı bir yöntemdir. Çoğu araştırmacı bunun üzerine giderek acil kliniklerinde ultrason kullanarak hayati önem arz eden vakalarda hem hastanın zaman kaybını azaltmak, hem de hekimin daha kolay bir şekilde belirli hastalıkları elimine etmesini sağlayan birçok muayene tekniğinin geliştirilmesine yardımcı olmuştur. Anahtar kelimeler: Acil veteriner hekimliği, AFAST, TFAST, ultrason, VetBLUE Ultrasonographic Examination Methods in Emergency Veterinary Medicine Summary: In this review, abdominal focused assessment with sonography for trauma (AFAST), thorax focused assessment with sonography for trauma (TFAST) and bedside lung ultrasonographic examination (VetBLUE) methods in trauma are discussed. The physician who will perform the ultrasonographic examination should know a certain level of anatomy and be in control of the modes of the device. In addition, a short time of about 3 to 6 minutes is sufficient for these examination techniques. Unlike most diagnostic tools, ultrasound is a non -invasive, safer and faster method. Many investigators have increasingly assisted in the use of ultrasound in emergency clinics to reduce the time loss of patients in vital cases, as well as the development of several examination techniques that allow the physician to eliminate certain diseases more easily.
