A comparative study between integrative practices and preappointement gabapentin on serum cortisol in cats.
Clinical appointment generates stress in feline patients, influencing the frequency of veterinary care with the species. The purpose of this study was to assess serum cortisol in cats submitted to oral gabapentin and integrative practices during clinical care. Twenty cats were evaluated in three clinical appointments, one week apart. All cats were submitted to treatments: placebo (PL), gabapentin (GA), and integrative practices (IP) (music therapy, pheromone therapy, and chromotherapy). GA and PL were administered by the owners 90 min before transportation to the veterinary teaching hospital, and IP were applied 30 min before clinical care. Cats were physically examined at all timepoints, and blood samples were collected for cortisol measurement. Serum cortisol levels ranged from 0.49 µg/dL to 17.99 µg/dL. Mean cortisol concentrations when cats received PL (7.6 µg/dL) were higher than when cats received GA (4.9 µg/dL) and IP (4.1 µg/dL). There was a statistical difference in cortisol levels when cats receiving PL and GA were compared (p = 0.03) and between PL and IP (p = 0.005). The study showed that feline serum cortisol levels were lower when cats received the treatments to IP (integrative practices) and GA (gabapentin), demonstrating that these are applicable methods for reducing stress of feline patients in clinical evaluation.
期刊介绍:
Veterinary Research Communications publishes fully refereed research articles and topical reviews on all aspects of the veterinary sciences. Interdisciplinary articles are particularly encouraged, as are well argued reviews, even if they are somewhat controversial.
The journal is an appropriate medium in which to publish new methods, newly described diseases and new pathological findings, as these are applied to animals. The material should be of international rather than local interest. As it deliberately seeks a wide coverage, Veterinary Research Communications provides its readers with a means of keeping abreast of current developments in the entire field of veterinary science.
