A Study on Observation of Respiratory Ultrasound Plethysmography in Donkeys

Eşeklerin göğüs ve karın bölgelerinin respiratorik eforu yeterince tanımlanmamıştır. Bildiğimiz kadarıyla, eşeklerde akciğer mekaniğinin izlenmesi için objektif, invaziv olmayan bir sistem yoktur. Bu çalışma, eşeklerde torakoabdominal asenkroninin doğasını tanımlayan ilk çalışmadır. Bu amaç için, 22 Haziran 2016'dan 19 Ocak 2017'ye kadar, Schlosshof GmbH'ya ait tüm eşekler (n = 18) kullanılmıştır. Bu çalışmada, solunum sırasındaki göğüs ve karın bölgelerinin hareket farklılıklarının Solunum Ultrason Pletismografi (RUP) metodu ile analiz edilmesi amaçlandı. Bu amaçla göğüs ve karın bölgelerinin hareketlerinin senkronizasyon, ritim ve bağıl dağılımları analiz edildi. Çalışmanın nihai amacı, referans veri tabanına katkıda bulunmak ve sahada diyagnostik amaçlı basit bir RUP tekniği geliştirmekti, fakat, RUP metodunun mevcut haliyle sinyal gürültülerine aşırı duyarlı olduğu ve elde edilen verileri etkilediği gözlemlendi. Bununla birlikte, sağlıklı ve öksüren eşeklerin solunumları için alternatif algoritma stratejisi uygulanmasıyla da sonuçların farklı olduğu ortaya konuldu

Eşeklerde Solunum Ultrason Pletismografisinin Gözlemlenmesi Üzerine Bir Çalışma

The respiratory efforts of the thorax and abdominal muscles of donkeys have not adequately been quantified. According to our knowledge, there is no objective, non-invasive monitoring system of lung mechanics in donkeys. This study is the first to describe the nature of thoracoabdominal asynchrony in donkeys. From 22 June 2016 to 19 January 2017 in turn all donkeys (n=18) owned by the Schlosshof GmbH were used for this study. The aim of this study was to analyse the differences of thoracic and abdominal excursions during breathing by using Respiratory Ultrasound Plethysmography (RUP). Synchronisation, rhythm and relative contribution of the thoracic and abdominal muscles were analysed. The final goal was to contribute to a reference data base for diagnostic purposes and find out if RUP could be a simple diagnostic technique for use in the field. The RUP system in its current form is too sensitive to signal noise and generated data are difficult to quantify. Nevertheless, using an alternative algorithm the respiratory strategy of healthy and coughing donkeys appeared different
