Posted Jun 13, 2018 Help your clients prepare for hurricane season: To honor Pet Preparedness Month, veterinarians at PetSmart released a list of tips to help owners ensure the safety and security of their animals in the event of a natural disaster. "The best way to keep pets safe during an emergency is to prepare a disaster plan, especially with hurricane season around the corner," said Nick Saint-Erne, DVM, PetSmart's resident veterinarian. "It is common to overlook pets when preparing for an emergency, but taking a few simple steps to include your pets' needs in your family preparedness plan will help ensure they are comfortable and safe in the event of an emergency." Dr. Saint-Erne suggests owners take the following pet preparedness safety measures to help their animals stay safe and calm in the event of an emergency. Ensure pets are safely contained When severe weather warnings go into effect, crate or kennel your animal. Consider purchasing a pet carrier in the event of evacuation. Additionally, have lidded plastic buckets or bins on-hand if you own fish, turtles, or similar animals. Look for pet-friendly housing options for your animal in case you need to evacuate your home Be sure to your pet up-to-date on its vaccinations, which are often required for boarding, and have copies of its medical records on file. Prepare a list of local shelters, boarding facilities, and clinics able to shelter animals during an emergency. Make sure your pet has identification Consider microchip identification for your animal in the event you are separated during severe weather. Proper identification is the best assurance you and your pet will be reunited following the emergency. Be aware of "paw-level" hazards post-storm Look out for sharp objects, spilled chemicals, and other substances that could be dangerous for your pet. Provide comfort Bring along your pet's favorite toy or blanket to help alleviate their stress during the emergency. Read More:

Posted Jun 10, 2018 How to sell your practice -via Veterinary Practice News The decision to sell a practice is hard enough—and often tied with emotion. The transition can be spurred by various factors, including retirement, managerial overload, career redirection, or professional burnout, to name a few. "When you make a plan, you have to start with the desired outcome and work backward to the present time," writes Joseph Hruban in his new book, Where Have All the Corporate Veterinary Practice Buyers Come From? How Your Exit Strategy Attracts Highly-Qualified Buyers Paying Top Dollar for Your Practice So You Can Transition on Your Terms. "Reverse engineering the baby steps, this can be easier to say then to actually do. These ideas take time and effort to brainstorm." Hruban, a practice transition specialist, recommends planning up to nine years in advance when thinking about retirement. This gives plenty of time to implement any changes needed to facilitate a successful sale. It also allows for any "curve balls" life may throw at you during the planning process. "I get calls from [veterinarians] where there's been a health change with their spouse and they now have to re-evaluate their timeline," Hruban said. "They thought they were three to five years out [from retirement] but now all of a sudden they need to figure out a path to exit faster." "If you have a planned sale—it's not urgent like you've been diagnosed with a disease—then I suggest [prepping] about three years prior," said Byron Farquer, DVM, CVA, a senior veterinary practice appraiser at Simmons & Associates Pacific Inc. in Oakdale, Calif.

Posted Jun 8, 2018 Medical Imaging AI Software Is Vulnerable to Covert Attacks: Artificial intelligence systems meant to analyze medical images are vulnerable to attacks designed to fool them in ways that are imperceptible to humans, a new study warns. There may be enormous incentives to carry out such attacks for healthcare fraud and other nefarious ends, the researchers say. "The most striking thing to me as a researcher crafting these attacks was probably how easy they were to carry out," says study lead author Samuel Finlayson, a computer scientist and biomedical informatician at Harvard Medical School in Boston. "This was in practice a relatively simple process that could easily be automated." "In addition to how easy they are to carry out, I was also surprised by how relatively unknown these weaknesses are to the medical community," says study co-author Andrew Beam, a computer scientist and biomedical informatician at Harvard Medical School in Boston. "There is a lot of coverage about how accurate deep learning can be in medical imaging, but there is a dearth of understanding about potential weaknesses and security issues." AI systems known as deep learning neural networks are increasingly helping analyze medical images. For example, last week, a group of German scientists and their colleagues showed these systems are better than experienced dermatologists at detecting skin cancer. On 11 April, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration announced the approval of the first AI system that can be used for medical diagnosis without the input of a human clinician. Given the costs of healthcare in the United States, one might imagine that AI could help make medical imaging cheaper by taking humans out of the loop, say Finlayson, Beam, and their colleagues in the study. "We as a society stand to receive enormous benefit from the deliberate application of machine learning in healthcare," Finlayson says. "However, as we integrate these incredible tools into the healthcare system, we need to be acutely aware of their potential downsides as well." Read More:

Posted Jun 6, 2018 Transport stress induces heart damage in newly hatched chicks via blocking the cytoprotective heat shock response and augmenting nitric oxide production: Abstract Transport stress affects the animal's metabolism and psychological state. As a pro-survival pathway, the heat shock response (HSR) protects healthy cells from stressors. However, it is unclear whether the HSR plays a role in transport stress-induced heart damage. To evaluate the effects of transport stress on heart damage and HSR protection, newly hatched chicks were treated with transport stress for 2 h, 4 h and 8 h. Transport stress caused decreases in body weight and increases in serum creatine kinase (CK) activity, nitric oxide (NO) content in heart tissue, cardiac nitric oxide syntheses (NOS) activity and NOS isoforms transcription. The mRNA expression of heat shock factors (HSFs, including HSF1-3) and heat shock proteins (HSPs, including HSP25, HSP40, HSP47, HSP60, HSP70, HSP90 and HSP110) in the heart of 2 h transport-treated chicks was upregulated. After 8 h of transport stress in chicks, the transcription levels of the same HSPs and HSF2 were reduced in the heart. It was also found that the changes in the HSP60, HSP70 and HSP90 protein levels had similar tendencies. These results suggested that transport stress augmented NO generation through enhancing the activity of NOS and the transcription of NOS isoforms. Therefore, this study provides new evidence that transport stress induces heart damage in the newly hatched chicks by blocking the cytoprotective HSR and augmenting NO production. Read More:

The variable 40 inch to 72 inch SID can be achieved in both vertical horizontal planes as well. Send us a direct message to discuss pricing and availability.

Posted Jun 3, 2018 Veterinary hospital financing: How to get the funds you need: When designing a veterinary hospital, the nitty-gritty details about securing financing are not the most fun part of the process—but they are one of the most important. Because without money, you'll never get to the fun part—the building and decorating of your dream hospital. But what should you consider when looking for financing? HospitalDesign360 conference speaker Gary Glassman, CPA, of Burzenski and Co., shares the most important things to think about. One of the most critical steps in securing funding is getting an appraisal of the building plans, because that's what the bank will use to determine how much to loan for your project. The appraisal is based on the finished architectural drawings, and the loan will be based on a percentage of the final valuation of the project, Glassman says. Read More:
