Evolution of Local Temperature after Thermal Disbudding in Calves: A Preliminary Study

Cristian Zaha, L. Schüszler, R. Dascălu, Paula Nistor et autres

Thermal disbudding and dehorning are very common techniques employed for the removal of horn buds in dairy calves. Infrared thermography was used to determine the local temperature before the thermal disbudding procedure, five seconds into the procedure, and two hours after the …

Thermographic Image of the Hoof Print in Leisure and Cross-Country Warmblood Horses: A Pilot Study

Cristian Zaha, L. Schüszler, R. Dascălu, Paula Nistor et autres

BACKGROUND: The field of veterinary medicine lacks information on equine thermal hoof printing, and few data on the same subject are available in dogs. In human medicine, thermography is used to detect heat emitted by the foot when it comes in contact …

Evaluation of Thermal Changes of the Sole Surface in Horses with Palmar Foot Pain: A Pilot Study

Cristian Zaha, L. Schüszler, R. Dascălu, Paula Nistor et autres

BACKGROUND: Horses with palmar foot pain do not show a typical increase in temperature in the palmar aspect of the hoof and heel due to low blood flow. The objectives of the current study were to determine the changes and differences in …

Simple Continuous Versus Cushing Suture for Jejunal end-to-end Anastomosis in the Dogs: a Comparative Study

C. Igna, R. Dascălu, Cristian Zaha, Bogdan Sicoe et autres

For the anastomosis of canine jejunum, single-layer appositional closures are preferred to inverting or everting patterns, whereas inverted or everted closures require second-intention healing and increase the risk of luminal stenosis or anastomosis site leakage. Nevertheless, following simple continuous sutures, the dehiscence …
