The objective of this study was to examine all kick injuries to the radius and tibia seen in an ambulatory setting over an 11-year period in order to determine factors affecting outcome. Medical records of 51 horses seen for a kick injury to the radius or tibia were reviewed. Signalment, physical examination findings, type of management, and outcome were evaluated. There was a significant association between the presence of bony crepitus and a lameness score of ≥ 4/5 and a poor outcome. There was no relationship between signalment and outcome, but significantly more Thoroughbred/Thoroughbred cross horses were affected than any other breed. There was no detected relationship between the type of management and outcome; however, most (81%) horses were managed on stall rest. Horses with bony crepitus or with a lameness score of ≥ 4/5 were at an increased risk for euthanasia.
本研究的目的是检查在11年期间门诊所见的所有桡骨和胫骨踢伤情况,以确定影响预后的因素。对51匹因桡骨或胫骨踢伤前来就诊的马匹的病历进行了回顾。评估了信号、体格检查结果、治疗类型和预后。骨摩擦音的存在与跛行评分≥4/5以及预后不良之间存在显著关联。信号与预后之间没有关系,但纯种马/纯种杂交马受影响的数量明显多于其他任何品种。治疗类型与预后之间未发现关系;然而,大多数(81%)马匹采用栏内休息治疗。有骨摩擦音或跛行评分≥4/5的马匹实施安乐死的风险增加。
