First 2 and a half weeks of internship
I only have ten minutes left on this computer at the library. This is my first posting on this new blog so bear with me. Lots of procedures that we did while on my Food Animal rotation at OSU Veterinary Teaching Hospital. Today had a cow that was brought in with dystocia. The Doc thought it was dead so they took their time letting the vet students feel the way the calf was malpresented. Long story short helped pull the calf. Her head was swollen, along with her tongue sticking out. She is unofficially brain dead possibly due to the lack of oxygen. Later we intubated her, put her on oxygen gave her Dopram for respiratory stimulation. To help her breath even more they put caffeine down her esophagus before we drenched her with colostrum. Right now as I write this she is in ICU. If she does not make remarkable improvement by the morning we will "throw in the towel," as one Dr. put it. Hope you enjoy this posting look back from time to time for new posts. I have to get off this computer to let other Library patrons use it.
