Hematocrit changes in healthy periparturient bitches that underwent elective cesarean section
KGM De Cramer, KE Joubert, JO Nöthling - Theriogenology, 2016 - Elsevier
Hematocrits were measured before each of 406 cesarean sections performed on 324
bitches at term and again after crystalloid fluid therapy administered at 35 mL/kg over 1½–2
hours starting from induction. The mean hematocrit was 44.2%(95% confidence interval [CI]
43.8%–44.6%) before cesarean section and 37.8%(95% CI 37.3%–38.2%) after cesarean
section and fluid therapy, with a mean decrease of 6.4% points (95% CI 6.1%–6.7%) over all
406 cesarean sections. These results provide the clinician with clear guidelines of the …
