Uso da radioterapia no tumor venéreo transmissível em cães

Since the discovery of x rays, the use of radiation in oncology has advanced remarkably. In Brazil, radiation therapy in animals is limited to some isolated studies in public universities and the procedures performed is still precarious because radiation equipments are expensive and there is still a lack of skilled professionals. The transmissible venereal tumor (TVT) is a contagious neoplasm of spontaneous occurrence, commonly treated with vincristine. This paper describes the positive experience of radiotherapy as an isolated option or as an combined treatment with vincristine in three cases of TVT. It was observed that radiotherapy may be used in routine clinical chemotherapy alone or combined with chemotherapy since suitable sources of radiation are provided.

O uso de drogas anticoagulantes e antiplaquetárias orais em pacientes cirúrgicos ambulatoriais: revisão de literatura

The oral anticoagulants (AOC) and platelet antiagregants are drugs used for the prevention of thromboembolic phenomena, such as pulmonary embolism in patients with atrial fribrilation heart valves, thrombosis and pulmonary embolism. For patients who are undergoing surgical procedures-dentistry were asked to discontinue the use of anticoagulants until the value of the INR remained = 2.0, that in order to avoid trans and hemorrhages in the postoperative period. However, the AOC can cause the formation of a clot, leading to obstruction of blood pathways. Thus, it became doubtful the medicine for surgery, in which local hemostatic measures would be sufficient to promote hemostasis. Thus, the objective of the review was to evaluate the risk of bleeding in patients AOC users that are subjected to surgical procedures, through a bibliographical survey carried out in relevant clinical studies published between 1990 and 2012, by the MedlinePubMed data. In this review of literature was concluded that the benefit of thromboembolism prevention overcomes the risk hemorrhage, therefore, it is recommended to keep the dose of anticoagulant therapy unchanged for patients undergoing oral surgery and implant dentistry, using appropriate INR levels with the assistance of local hemostatic. In addition, a refined surgical technique should be performed in these patients. With respect to the most invasive oral surgery, with a risk of bleeding, treatment may be necessary in conjunction with the medical staff.

Considerações sobre o sucesso do tratamento endodôntico

The follow up after endodontic treatment is the most effective tool for evaluating the quality of treatments performed, as well as, it lets to examine the procedures used at different stages of endodontic therapy. Clinical and radiographic findings must be taken into consideration to determine the percentage of endodontic success. Clinical findings include: absence of pain or positive examinations for percussion and palpation, swelling, tooth mobility and fistula. Regarding the radiographic findings it is possible to report absence of periapical radiolucent areas suggestive of periapical lesions and presence of bone cortical. Thus the aim of this study was to perform a bibliographic revision and a discussion about the factors of endodontic treatment follow up.

Carcinoma de lábio com prognóstico sombrio devido conduta médica inadequada

The Squamous Cell Carcinoma is what more happens among the oral cancers, being considered sweats incidence in more than 90%. As important prognostic factor competes the early diagnosis and the immediate institution of the treatment, that it can involve radiotherapy and chemotherapy besides the surgery. The initial lesions don’t offer great diagnostic difficulties and now complemental laboratory exams define the diagnosis quickly, In the present report, the initial medical conduct was inadequate, with incomplete interpretation of the laboratorial result and adoption of inadequate therapeutic conduct, what resulted in constant evolution of the lesion. The patient came to the consultation with that medical history, after six months of the first attendance accomplished in another center. To the physical exam, infiltrative ulcerated lesion was observed in the lower lip, with having accentuated tissue loss superficially. The patient accused spontaneous pain and she did use an ointment, recommended six months ago for occasion of the first attendance. As diagnostic conduct was indicated the accomplishment of cytology and biopsy, being defined the diagnosis of Squamous Cell Carcinoma. The patient was immediately guided to the medical service of its municipal district for manegement of the specialized oncologic treatment. The patient was submitted the surgery followed by radiotherapy, being verified involvement of another structures by contiguity. Now, the patient meets abed, without viable perspectives of cure. The present report emphasizes the importance of the clinical knowledge and professional responsibility in attendance of cases of that nature.

Avaliação histológica da ação da raioterapia na região odontogênica de incisivos de ratos

Inúmeras alterações dentárias podem ocorrer em crianças submetidas ao tratamento radioterápico. O objetivo neste trabalho foi avaliar histologicamente a ação da radiação X na região odontogênica do incisivo inferior de ratos com doses de 5 e 15 Gy. Foram utilizados 30 ratos machos (Rattus norvegicus, Albinus, Wistar), os quais foram divididos em três grupos: controle; radioterapia 5 Gy (irradiados com 5 Gy); e grupo 15 Gy (irradiados com 15 Gy). As doses foram administradas na região de cabeça e pescoço, em dose única, no segundo dia do experimento. As mandíbulas foram preparadas em lâminas histológicas. Na porção inicial da região odontogênica do grupo 5 Gy, os odontoblastos apresentaram-se alterados morfologicamente e menos organizados. Já no grupo 15 Gy foram observadas irregularidades na organização dos odontoblastos e ameloblastos, além de alteração na formação da alça epitelial e hemorragia. Na porção média da região odontogênica, o grupo 5 Gy apresentou alterações na face lingual, bem como leves alterações nos odontoblastos na região distal do dente; o órgão dentário do grupo 15 Gy apresentou visível redução do tamanho, hemorragia, odontoblastos não polarizados e produção de dentina para diferentes direções; observando-se ainda na porção distal, extensa destruição com visível redução no tamanho e vasta desorganização nos odontoblastos e ameloblastos. Conclui-se que a dose de 5 Gy causou leves e pequenas alterações morfológicas, e a dose de 15 Gy provocou intensas alterações histológicas e estruturais na região odontogênica do incisivo de rato.

Notificações espontâneas de eventos adversos a medicamentos hospitalares: estudo piloto

Introduction: Post-marketing surveillance of drugs aims to detect problems related to safety, effectiveness and quality. The identification of adverse drug events (ADE) is made, mainly, by health professionals´ spontaneous reporting. This method allows risk communication in pharmacovigilance and contributes for market regulation. Objective: To estimate the prevalence of adverse drug reaction (ADR) and the suspicions of therapeutic failure (TF) reported by health professionals; to verify the active principle and type of drugs related to ADE, seriousness, causality, production mechanism and clinical manifestation of the events identified. METHODS: A cross-sectional study was performed in a teaching and public hospital which integrates the Sentinel Hospital Network, in 2008. ADR seriousness was classified according to intensity (mild, moderate, serious and lethal); drugs associated with ADE were categorized according to type (brand name drugs and non-brand name drugs); causality was imputed with Naranjo algorithm and the mechanism of occurrence was analyzed according to Rawlins e Thompson definitions (A or B). Results: There were 103 ADE reports in the period, of which 39 comprised TF and 64 ADR. Nurses reported the most ADE (53.4%). The majority of ADR were classified as type A (82.8%), mild (81.3%), possible (57.8%), according to causality assessment, and related to brand name drugs (20/35). Human immunoglobulin, docetaxel and paclitaxel were the drugs frequently associated with ADR. TF arising from no-brand name drugs (26/29), regarding, mainly, midazolam and ganciclovir. Conclusion: The results of the ADE report contribute for proposition of trigger tools for intensive monitoring of drug safety, as well as for the supplier qualification and for the improvement of quality products.

Anestesia peridural com lidocaína em um potro: relato de caso

Um equino macho, raça Manga Larga, de 20 dias de idade, pesando 55 kg foi atendido no Hospital Veterinário “Luiz Quintiliano de Oliveira” com histórico de queda no dia anterior, apresentando impotência funcional e desvio do eixo ósseo do membro pélvico esquerdo (MPE). Ao exame radiográfico, constatou-se uma fratura classificada como Salter- Harris tipo II, na região distal da tíbia esquerda, com indicação para osteossíntese. Ao exame físico geral, observou-se frequência cardíaca (FC) de 82 batimentos.min-1, frequência respiratória (f) de 60 movimentos.min-1, mucosas róseas, tempo de preenchimento capilar de dois segundos, temperatura retal (ToC) de 38,5oC e hidratação adequada. Como medicação pré-anestésica, administrou-se xilazina (0,5 mg.kg-1) IV. A indução foi realizada por meio da administração de midazolam (0,1mg.kg-1) e cetamina (2mg.kg-1) IV. Seguiu-se a intubação orotraqueal com sonda n o 12 conectando-se a um circuito anestésico com reinalação parcial de gases, e a manutenção foi realizada com isofluorano em fluxo diluente de oxigênio a 100%, sob ventilação espontânea. Realizou-se a técnica de anestesia peridural com o paciente em decúbito lateral direito, introduzindo uma agulha 30x8 percutaneamente até atingir o espaço peridural entre as vértebras L6 e S1, onde se administrou lidocaína a 2% (2,2mg.kg-1) com vasoconstritor, perfazendo um volume de 6 mLs. Adicionalmente foi realizado o bloqueio perineural dos nervos tibial e fibular do membro acometido, com administração de 5 mLs de lidocaína a 2% com vasoconstritor em cada ponto. A administração de anestésicos locais pela via peridural na região L6 – S1 não é rotineiramente usada em equinos, uma vez que provoca ataxia ou perda do tônus muscular, aumentando os riscos relacionados à intervenção anestésica. No entanto, a recuperação do potro nesse relato de caso foi rápida e isenta de complicações, provalvelmente proporcionando anestesia multimodal e consequentemente menor depressão cardiovascular. A associação da anestesia peridural e bloqueio dos nervos tibial e fibular à anestesia geral, pode ser uma alternativa para intervenções cirúrgicas em membros pélvicos de potros, uma vez que demonstrou ser efetiva e de fácil execução.

O design e o produto: parâmetros projetuais para o planejamento de jogos geométricos pré-escolares

Educational games are responsible for part of the information assimilated by the child, because these games respect the individual learning time, enabling experimentation and, consequently, being an accessory to retain the acquired knowledge spontaneously. However, the analogy between stimulus and reception/result is not always the expected. On the one hand, there are the pedagogues, bearing the knowledge necessary to the children’s development. On the other hand, are the children, who cannot completely assimilate the concept, commonly because of lack of planning on the product. After all, the children become not interested in the game, without developing the expected cognitive abilities planned for the product. Whereas the importance of the games on children’s development, this work aimed to analyze and select educational games presented on the preschool, based on the language exploration from the Design’s knowledge and skills. Specifically, the research intends to investigate games targeted to stimulate geometric concepts, and so, to describe parameters that must be observed during the product planning.

Plasma rico em plaquetas (PRP) aplicado na artroplastia total do joelho

Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of platelet-rich plasma regarding healing, pain and hemostasis after total knee arthroplasty, by means of a blinded randomized controlled and blinded clinical study. Methods: Forty patients who were going to undergo implantation of a total knee prosthesis were selected and randomized. In 20 of these patients, platelet-rich plasma was applied before the joint capsule was closed. The hemoglobin (mg/dL) and hematocrit (%) levels were assayed before the operation and 24 and 48hours afterwards. The Womac questionnaire and a verbal pain scale were applied and knee range of motion measurements were made up to the second postoperative month. The statistical analysis compared the results with the aim of determining whether there were any differences between the groups at each of the evaluation times. Results: The hemoglobin (mg/dL) and hematocrit (%) measurements made before the operation and 24 and 48hours afterwards did not show any significant differences between the groups (p > 0.05). The Womac questionnaire and the range of motion measured before the operation and up to the first two months also did not show any statistical differences between the groups (p > 0.05). The pain evaluation using the verbal scale showed that there was an advantage for the group that received platelet-rich plasma, 24hours, 48hours, one week, three weeks and two months after the operation (p < 0.05). Conclusions: In the manner in which the platelet-rich plasma was used, it was not shown to be effective for reducing bleeding or improving knee function after arthroplasty, in comparison with the controls. There was an advantage on the postoperative verbal pain scale.

Avaliação da eficácia dos biocurativos em ratos wistar com lesões de pele causadas por queimaduras

Accidents caused by thermal, chemical, electrical or radioactive agents cause skin lesions causing burns of varying degrees. The therapeutic approach aims to restore damaged tissues and involves a wide range of products on the market. This study aims to evaluate the use of biological dressing, biotech product developed at the Blood Center of Botucatu / UNESP obtained from fresh frozen plasma or platelet concentrate with in vitro addition of thrombin and calcium gluconate. This addition in the platelet concentrate, intended to release the active growth factors of the platelets granules on the healing process. The study of the effectiveness of Platelet Gel home made in Wistar rats was established, in agreement with scald burns, comparing efficacy and cost of Platelet Gel with usual hospital -based treatment collagenase + chloramphenicol plus cost analysis through pharmacoeconomics. We used 25 Wistar rats were divided into 3 treatment groups: Group A, Collagenase + Chloramphenicol; Group B, Platelet Gel and C, control. The products were applied every other day for 30 days in animals. In group A, there was the presence of erythema and crust in all animals. The exudates was indentified 2/10 animals. For the Group B, we observed the presence of erythema and crust at all and no presence of exudates. In group C all the animals showed erythema with no presence of exudates and scab occurred in 1/10. Statistical analysis showed significant difference ( p < 0.0 ) for crust formation between Groups B and C. In the histological analysis, group A showed a slight amount of blood vessels and collagen fibers, moderate amounts of macrophages and fibroblasts was observed while B and C groups showed moderate amounts of blood vessels, macrophages and fibroblasts and discreet presence of collagen fibers. The re-epithelialization occurred in most animals of all groups without significant statistical differences. For the aspects of pharmacoeconomics, the platelet gel presented a better cost - effectiveness in relation to treatment based on collagenase / chloramphenicol. In light of the ethical aspects of the raw material is the result of spontaneous blood donation, the proposal should have biological dressings productions the responsibility of public blood transfusion centers for free distribution. This may point to the production chain of Brazilian blood banks like special blood components for use no intravenous.
