  Archived Patient Of The Month : June 2007

VSCD likes to profile a certain case every month (POTM.) You can read about that patient directly below.

Name: Cheyenne
Breed: Bull Mastiff
Age: 4 years
Condition: Dystocia
 

Cheyenne presented to the after-hours emergency clinic at VetCare for signs of distress during stage III labor.  Several hours of contraction had not led to the presentation of a puppy, and there was some concern for a medical condition called ‘uterine inertia’.  Uterine inertia is a condition in which, although the uterus contracts, it fails to produce coordinated activity leading to presentation of a puppy.  Uterine inertia can be helped by correcting acid-base balance, glucose homeostasis, electrolyte inequities and initiating oxytocin (hormone) injections.  All of these medical procedures were performed, without effect.  VSCD Dr. John Haburjak, on Mother’s Day (!) was called in after-hours to assist with surgical intervention.  A standard abdominal procedure (Caesarean section) was performed an with the help of the after-hours nursing staff 8 live puppies were born (7 boys and one female!).  At last check mom and babies were doing well!  Hurray for Mother’s Day!
