USO DE ARTROTOMIA CONVENCIONAL PARA CORREÇÃO DE DISPLASIA DE COTOVELO EM CÃO

Elbow dysplasia is defined by abnormal development of the elbow joint, the most common presentation being dysplasia due to fragmentation of the medial coronoid process. The diagnosis is based on clinical examination and imaging tests such as radiography, computed tomography, scintigraphy and magnetic resonance imaging. In milder cases, conservative treatment is indicated, however, in most cases surgical treatment is recommended. The aim of this study was to report the surgical procedure for subtotal coronoidectomy to correct fragmentation of the medial coronoid process in a dog. A canine, female, five-month-old American Bully patient was referred to the Veterinary Metropolitan Hospital, diagnosed with fragmentation of the medial coronoid process of the left thoracic limb performed by radiological and tomographic evaluation. In addition, complementary hematological, biochemical, electrocardiogram and echocardiogram tests were also sent. By examining the exams, surgical treatment using the conventional arthrotomy technique was recommended. Ten days after the surgical procedure, the patient had normal walking, without pain and lameness. The tutor was instructed to follow the animal every three weeks for 90 days. In addition, restriction of physical activities during the six-week period was recommended. After three months, the patient had a good quality of life with normal walking without signs of lameness. With this, it can be concluded that the surgical treatment of the fragmentation of the medial coronoid process using the conventional arthrotomy technique proved to be effective, with satisfactory results for the patient, allowing the functional return of the affected limb in the short term.A displasia de cotovelo é definida pelo desenvolvimento anormal da articulação do cotovelo, sendo a apresentação mais comum a displasia por fragmentação do processo coronoide medial. O diagnóstico é baseado no exame clínico e exames de imagem como radiografia, tomografia computadorizada, cintilografia e ressonância magnética. Em casos mais brandos, o tratamento conservativo é indicado, contudo, na maioria dos casos o tratamento cirúrgico é recomendado. O objetivo desse trabalho foi relatar o procedimento cirúrgico de coronoidectomia subtotal para correção de fragmentação do processo coronoide medial em cão. Foi encaminhado ao Hospital Veterinário Metropolitano um paciente canino, fêmea, com cinco meses idade, da raça American Bully, com diagnóstico de fragmentação do processo coronoide medial do membro torácico esquerdo realizado por avaliação radiológica e tomográfica. Além disso, também foram encaminhados os exames complementares hematológicos, bioquímicos, eletrocardiograma e ecocardiograma. Mediante a análise dos exames foi recomendado o tratamento cirúrgico através da técnica de artrotomia convencional. Após dez dias do procedimento cirúrgico, o paciente apresentava deambulação normal, sem dor e claudicação. Foi instruído ao tutor o acompanhamento do animal a cada três semanas durante 90 dias. Além disso, foi recomendado restrição das atividades físicas durante o periodo de seis semanas. Decorridos três meses, o paciente apresentava boa qualidade de vida com deambulação normal sem sinais de claudicação. Com isso, pode-se concluir que o tratamento cirúrgico da fragmentação do processo coronoide medial através da técnica de artrotomia convencional mostrou-se eficaz, com resultados satisfatórios ao paciente, possibilitando o retorno funcional do membro acometido em curto prazo

A study on the managerial profiles of commissioned officers at SASDH-AC for improved community service

This research article addresses the theme of managerial profiles of commissioned employees assigned to the Municipal Secretariat of Social Assistance and Human Rights in Rio Branco, Acre state. Identifying the following problematic: What is the perception of managerial competencies among commissioned employees of the Municipal Secretariat of Social Assistance and Human Rights in Acre, and which models stand out based on Quinn's model? The objective of this study is to analyze the perspectives of employees regarding managerial competencies and how they are exercised in the context of SASDH-AC. The approach used is quantitative, a Likert scale questionnaire was used, and the data were collected through Google forms. The research results indicated that there was a predominance in the roles of negotiator and innovator. The results indicated that the negotiator and innovator profiles were the most prevalent among SASDH-AC employees. These managerial competencies were identified as fundamental for the transformation of organizational development, especially concerning decision-making. These findings suggest the importance of managerial competencies in the performance of commissioned employees in SASDH-AC, emphasizing the need for investment in training and development programs for these skills. Understanding the predominant managerial profiles can contribute to the improvement of management practices in the public agency, aiming for greater effectiveness in promoting human rights and providing social assistance services to the population of Rio Branco - Acre

Degradabilidade in situ da silagem de quatro genótipos de sorgo com e sem tanino: I - Matéria seca e proteína bruta In situ degradability of four sorgum silages with or without tannin: I - Dry mater and crude protein

Avaliaram-se a degradabilidade in situ da matéria seca (MS) e da proteína bruta (PB) da silagem de quatro genótipos de sorgo, dois com tanino (CMS XS 210 e BR 701) e dois sem tanino (CMS XS 214 e BR007) em um delineamento de blocos inteiramente ao acaso, com três repetições (animais), em arranjo de parcelas subdivididas. Os genótipos constituíram as parcelas e os tempos de digestão as subparcelas. O genótipo CMS XS 210 apresentou menor degradabilidade da MS em relação aos demais e os genótipos que continham tanino (CMS XS 210 e BR 701) apresentaram menores degradabilidades da PB em relação aos que não o continham.<br>The in situ procedure was used to evaluate the disappearance of dry matter (DM) and crude protein (CP) of four sorghum genotypes with (CMS XS 210 and BR 701) or without (CMS XS 214 and BR 007) tannin in a completely randomized block design experiment with three replicates (animals), in a split plot arrangement. The four genotypes were allotted to the plots and the time of disappearance to the split plot. The DM of CMS XS210 was less degraded when compared to the others and sorghums with tannin showed lower CP degradability when compared to the sorghums without tannin
