Occurrence and correlates of azotaemia in dogs presented for veterinary care in a tertiary veterinary hospital in Nigeria

Resumen

Este estudio evaluó la ocurrencia de azotemia y la relación entre azotemia, raza, sexo y edad en perros que llevados para tratamiento veterinario a un hospital veterinario de tercer nivel en Nigeria del este. Un total de 304 perros de diversas razas y edades, machos y hembras, fueron evaluados en este estudio. La disfunción renal se determinó evaluando los niveles de creatinina sérica, usando los criterios de la Sociedad Internacional de Interés Renal para el diagnóstico de disfunción renal, se usó un valor de creatinina sérica de corte ≥ 1.4 mg/dl para clasificar a los perros como positivos para azotemia o no. Los resultados mostraron que 34 (11.2%) perros de la muestra tenían azotemia. Se encontraron variaciones significativas (p < 0.05) en la ocurrencia de azotemia entre razas, los perros caucásicos tuvieron la mayor ocurrencia (5.9%), seguidos del mastín (2.6%), mongrel (2.0%) y alsaciano (0.7%). La ocurrencia de azotemia fue significativamente mayor (p<0.05) en hembras que en machos. Se encontró una variación significativa (p<0.05) en la ocurrencia de azotemia entre los grupos de edad, los perros jóvenes tienen una mayor ocurrencia que los cachorros y los adultos.
