Proton pump inhibitors are administered prophylactically in dogs treated surgically for acute thoracolumbar intervertebral disc extrusion (TL-IVDE). However, their efficacy in decreasing gastrointestinal (GI) complications is unknown.
Omeprazole does not decrease the frequency of GI complications compared to placebo in dogs treated surgically for acute TL-IVDE.
Thirty-seven client-owned dogs undergoing hemilaminectomy for acute TL-IVDE.
Randomized double-blinded placebo-controlled prospective clinical trial. Dogs received PO placebo or omeprazole at 1 mg/kg q12h for 5 days during hospitalization. Development of GI signs (e.g., diarrhea, vomiting, regurgitation, hematochezia, melena) was recorded daily. Clinicopathologic testing performed during hospitalization and at 2 and 4-week re-evaluations included: fecal occult blood, PCV, blood urea nitrogen/creatinine ratio, fecal calprotectin, canine pancreatic lipase immunoreactivity and fecal alpha-1 proteinase inhibitor concentrations. Omeprazole and placebo groups were compared using chi-squared or Fisher's exact tests.
Gastrointestinal signs developed in 10/20 (50%) dogs in the omeprazole group and in 7/17 (41%) dogs in the placebo group (P = .59). Diarrhea was common (8/20 omeprazole, 5/17 placebo), hematochezia was rare (1/20 omeprazole, 1/17 placebo); melena was not observed. Clinicopathologic evidence suggestive of bleeding was present in 9/20 dogs treated with omeprazole and in 11/17 dogs that received placebo (P = .23). Fecal occult blood positivity was more common in dogs with GI signs (P = .03). Canine pancreatic lipase immunoreactivity was higher during hospitalization compared to re-evaluations (P = .01).
Short-term, prophylactic omeprazole treatment did not decrease clinically detectable GI complications in dogs with acute TL-IVDE.
在接受手术治疗急性胸腰椎间盘突出症(TL-IVDE)的犬中,预防性使用质子泵抑制剂。然而,其减少胃肠道(GI)并发症的效果尚不清楚。
与安慰剂相比,奥曲肽不能降低接受手术治疗急性 TL-IVDE 的犬的 GI 并发症发生率。
37 只接受半椎板切除术治疗急性 TL-IVDE 的患犬。
随机、双盲、安慰剂对照的前瞻性临床试验。犬在住院期间每天接受 PO 安慰剂或奥曲肽 1mg/kg,q12h,共 5 天。每天记录 GI 症状(如腹泻、呕吐、反流、血便、黑便)的发展情况。住院期间和 2 周及 4 周复查时进行临床病理检测,包括粪便潜血、PCV、血尿素氮/肌酐比值、粪便钙卫蛋白、犬胰腺脂肪酶免疫反应和粪便α-1 蛋白酶抑制剂浓度。使用卡方检验或 Fisher 确切概率法比较奥曲肽组和安慰剂组。
奥曲肽组 20 只犬中有 10 只(50%)和安慰剂组 17 只犬中有 7 只(41%)出现 GI 症状(P=0.59)。腹泻很常见(奥曲肽组 8/20,安慰剂组 5/17),血便少见(奥曲肽组 1/20,安慰剂组 1/17);未观察到黑便。接受奥曲肽治疗的 20 只犬中有 9 只和接受安慰剂的 17 只犬中有 11 只存在提示出血的临床病理证据(P=0.23)。有 GI 症状的犬粪便潜血阳性更常见(P=0.03)。与复查时相比,犬胰腺脂肪酶免疫反应在住院期间更高(P=0.01)。
短期预防性奥曲肽治疗不能降低急性 TL-IVDE 犬的临床可检测胃肠道并发症。
