  • Partners in Practice LETTER from OUR DEAN (2006-2014)
    The News-Magazine of the Louisiana State University School of Veterinary Medicine 2014 Partners in Practice LETTER FROM OUR DEAN (2006-2014) Our students are the lifeblood of our school; they are the reason that we were founded. One aspect of the LSU SVM’s mission is to change lives through educational excellence. This issue of La Veterinaire highlights one of our students. Brandy Duhon (Class of 2013) has overcome incredible odds to achieve her dream of becoming a veterinarian. She is just on one of more than 400 exceptional people (veterinary students, graduate students and hospital interns and residents) who have chosen the LSU SVM to further their educational and professional goals. This issue also includes an update on the exceptional research conducted by our Equine Health Studies Program, as well as a clinical case study on a canine patient that was helped by multiple services in our hospital. We have been fortunate to add several stellar new faculty members, and you will meet them in this issue as well. It is our faculty, staff and students who make us great. In 1973, thirty-six Louisiana residents composed our inaugural class. In 2013, we are celebrating the 40th anniversary of this achievement. Since then, the LSU SVM has bestowed 2,576 DVM degrees and 379 MS and PhD degrees. Our graduates work in the private sector, in academia, in the military and in government. We could not be more proud of their success. Our 40th anniversary celebrations will take place throughout the year as we showcase our people, our facilities and our programs.

  • Guidelines to the Use of Wild Birds in Research Notes Regarding This
    Guidelines to the Use of Wild Birds in Research Notes regarding this Reference Resource: *This reference was adopted by the Council on Accreditation with the following clarification and exceptions: Clarification: This reference endorses the use of thoracic compression in small wild birds as acceptable with condition P. 189. However, Council notes the following: Thoracic (cardiopulmonary, cardiac) compression is a method used to euthanize wild small mammals and birds, mainly under field conditions. According to the “AVMA Guidelines for the Euthanasia of Animals: 2013 Edition,” thoracic compression is an unacceptable means of euthanizing animals that are not deeply anesthetized or insentient due to other reasons P.41, M3.12and P.83,S7.6.3.3. The Council on Accreditation recognizes the need for the use of thoracic compression in conscious wild small birds and mammals in situations where alternate techniques are not feasible or objectives of the protocol are such that the IACUC, and/or competent authority, grants approval for this method, training for the technique is provided, and its continued approval is re-evaluated as more scientifically-based data regarding its use becomes available. Clarification: AAALAC International underscores the need for scientific justification and IACUC approval for blood collection by intracardiac route as a survival procedure under general anesthesia (pg 136). Exception: AAALAC International does not endorse digit amputation as a route for blood collection but endorses nail clipping for blood collection with scientific justification and IACUC approval (pg.138). Exception: AAALAC International does not endorse chilling of the surgical site as an acceptable analgesic (pg 176). Exception: AAALAC International does not endorse performing a major invasive procedure (e.g.
