1. What are the 3 Phases of fluid therapy: Resuscitation
Replacement
Maintenance
2. What are a few causes of Hypokalemia?: decreased K intake, excessive fluid loss through VD,
Renal Failure, 3rd space fluid loss
3. Explain 1st intention wound healing, delayed primary closure, Secondary
closure: primary closure: surgical closure with staples/sutures
- Delayed primary closure: wound that is 6-8 hrs old and treated as an open wound for 2-3 days until surgically closed
- Secondary closure: wounds 6-8+ hours old and usually necrotic/infected wounds. Allow healthy granulation to form
and then close surgically
4. Explain 2nd intention wound healing: used for wounds 6-8+ hours old. Allow wound to heal on
its own naturally
5. To prevent a vaccine induced sarcoma, where should vaccines be given?: dista
to limb joints
6. Which vaccine for felines is a noncore vaccine recommended for multi-cat
household where there is a history of bacterial upper respiratory infections?: -
FeLV is noncore, but recommended for kittens and for multi-cat households
7. what is an eschar: scab
8. Explain the difference between an Isotonic, Hypotonic & Hypertonic Solution-
: Isotonic - fluid into which normal body cells can be placed in without shrinkage or swelling - 0.9% NaCl, LRS
Hypotonic - causes movement of water OUT of the intravascular space - 0.45% NaCl, Normosol M
Hypertonic - Pulls water INTO the intravascular space - 7% NaCl
9. kennel cough contagious disease caused by what?: Bordetella bronchiseptica
10. Explain the difference between Passive and Active Immunity: Passive immunity is
passed to offspring through maternal antibodies - does not replenish
Active immunity is built through exposure to disease causing pathogens (Antigens)
11. How does a kitten/puppy primarily obtain Passive Immunity: Through consumption
of maternal colostrum and through placental transfusion
12. On pulmonary auscultation when hearing wheezing sounds it may indicate
what? Crackling sounds indicate what: Wheezing - airway blockage
Crackling - fluid accumulation within the lungs

13. Explain the difference between Insensible and Sensible fluid loss, Give an
example for each: Insensible fluid loss - immeasurable - sweat, mucous membrane, saliva
Sensible fluid loss - measurable - urine, fecal water, vomiting
14. What is an example of an active drain? A passive drain?: Passive drain use gravity to
evacuate the fluid or gas, made of soft/flexible tubing, the drain does not exit from the primary surgical incision
Active drain - Jackson Pratt drain creates negative pressure to the area and suck the fluid and gas from the wound
15. what is a core vaccine: vaccination that is recommended for all animals of a specific species
16. What are Feline Core and non-core vaccines?: Feline core: Rabies, FVRCP, FeLV (kittens)
Feline Non-Core: FeLV (adult cats)
17. What are Canine Core and non-core Vaccines?: Canine Core: Rabies, DA2PPV
Canine Non-Core: Lyme, Lepto, Bordetella
18. explain 3rd space fluids: fluid accumulation in body cavities
19. Explain the 4 different types of Wound Classification and give an example for
each: Clean - surgical incision made under aseptic technique
Clean-contaminated - surgical wound made into a hollow organ (bladder)
Contaminated - open, fresh, traumatic wound with minor contamination, or surgical wound that breaks moderate sterile
technique
Dirty/infected - old, traumatic, infected wound, ruptured organ (internal/external)
20. Explain the 3 Phase of wound healing: Maturation phase - begins after 3 weeks, wound is at it's
strongest point. Collagen fibers remodel and align
21. what is a bolus: large amount of fluids/medications given IV quickly (over 1mL)
22. what does cyanosis look like on a patient?: blue MM
23. Explain the 5 Route of fluid administration. Pros & Cons for each: Oral - pro : easy,
con: not beneficial if animal wont drink
SQ - pro: small amounts delivered easily, slower absorption [50 mL per injection site] [MAX 10mL/kg / site]
IV - pro: can give lg amounts quickly, con: IV infection
IP - pro: good for exotics/neonates, con: organ puncture
Intraosseous - pro: great for neonates, con: highest risk of infection
24. What are the two different types of Colloids? Give an example of each: *unable
to cross cell membranes*
Synthetic - expanding blood volume
Natural - blood products (Blood transfusion)
