Trabajo presentado en la XXVII Reunión de la Asociación Peruana de Producción Animal - 2004

The main objective of this work was to describe intraocular pressure (IOP) in rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus (Linnaeus, 1758)) subjected to two anesthetic protocols. Anesthetic protocols 1 and 2 were Meloxicam-Xylazine-Ketamine and Meloxicam-Diazepam-Ketamine, respectively. It was a cross-sectional study of descriptive nature only, with a sample of twelve rabbits divided into two groups for the use of anesthetic protocols 1 and 2 independently. The IOP was measured with a Shiotz tonometer throughout the duration of the anesthetic protocols at minutes 5, 10 and 15. Subsequently, based on the measurements collected, the statistical frequencies were determined and the results obtained show the reduction of significant IOP during anesthesia in both anesthetic protocols, especially at minute 10 with measurements of 9.017 and 9.442 mmHg considering the baseline measurements of 19.917 and 20.40...

Trabajo de investigación presentado en la XXIX Reunión Científica Anual de la Asociación Peruana de Producción Animal - APPA 2006, realizado del 4-7 de diciembre del 2006, Junín - Perú.

Dermatitis is a general term describing an irritation of the skin which has various causes and forms. It currently aff ects many canines in homes and on the streets. Th e pathogens that cause this condition cause severe lesions in the dermis, epidermis and hypodermis. According to studies developed in several veterinary clinics in Perú, it is known that infectious dermatitis is the most prevalent in canines. Among the most frequent agents, bacteria and fungi such as Staphylococcus, Dermatophytes and Malassezia were found.
