It includes a wide range of practices such as routine health examinations, vaccinations, dental care, parasite control, and management of injuries and diseases. Veterinary care also involves diagnostic procedures, surgical interventions, and therapeutic treatments tailored to the specific needs of horses. This page gathers peer-reviewed research studies and scholarly articles that explore various aspects of equine veterinary care, including advancements in diagnostic techniques, treatment protocols, and health management strategies to support the well-being and performance of horses.
Percutaneous lung biopsy in the horse. Percutaneous lung biopsies with a cutting needle (Vim Tru Cut) were obtained from 20 horses. The procedure was performed in standing horses under a local anesthesia without sedation. All lung tissue specimens were suitable for histologic examinations and contained both pulmonary parenchyma and large airways. The only complication was hemoptysis in 2 (10%) horses which required no therapy. All horses were subsequently killed, and no gross abnormalities were present at the biopsy site.
Experimental infection of Strongyloides westeri in parasite-free ponies. ABSTRACT: The prepatent period of Strongyloideswesteri experimentalinfection in ponies was 6 to 10 days in pony foals and 11 to 13 days in pony yearlings. The infection stimulated moderate inflamma- tion in the anterior one-third of the small intestine in pony foals. Pony yearlings and Quarter Horse foals lost the infection and were resistantto reinfection. The loss of infection was associated with a neutrophiliain QuarterHorse foals and an increase in p-globulin in pony yearlings.
