Automated Blood Sampling in a Telemetry Cardiovascular Dog Colony

Date: Wednesday, October 11, 2023
Time: 10:30 am
Speaker – Amanda Wilsey Abbvie Implementation of Automated Blood Sampling (ABS) allows for uninterrupted cardiovascular data collection with simultaneous blood collection throughout a telemetry dog preclinical study. This reduction shortens study timelines, minimizes CV data artifacts, and considerably reduces compound synthesis and the associated costs. Methods: A colony of telemetry instrumented male beagle dogs were implanted and maintained in-house for non-GLP preclinical cardiovascular safety studies. Evaluation of the ABS telemetry dog cardiovascular model; highlighting the benefits and downfalls of the last seven years since implementing Automated Blood Sampling. Results: Since 2016, telemetry dogs implanted with transmitters and vascular access ports […]

Evaluation of an African Green Monkey Model of Transient Ischemia

Date: Wednesday, October 11, 2023
Time: 11:00 am
Speaker – Kimicia Isaac, St. Kitts Biomedical Research Foundation / Virscio, Inc. The NIH estimates 800,000 Americans suffer strokes yearly, with significant mortality, long-term disability, and substantial unmet medical need. The lack of translation from small animal models to clinical efficacy has slowed therapeutic development. Nonhuman primates (NHP) share anatomy and physiology with humans important to the clinical pathophysiology of stroke and truly predictive preclinical modeling. An model of transient ischemia is described in adult male African green monkeys (Chlorocebus sabaeus) that promises to enable more robust evaluation of stroke therapeutics. Methods: 11 monkeys received a 180 min occlusion of […]

The Vital Role of Capnography in Surgical Research: Enhancing Patient Care and Surgical Outcomes

Date: Wednesday, October 11, 2023
Time: 1:30 pm
Speakers: Jan Bernal Amgen Amy Martunas Vertex Capnography has emerged as an indispensable tool in veterinary medicine, revolutionizing the way we monitor and manage patients during various surgical scenarios. This presentation is dedicated to shedding light on the fundamental principles, practical applications, and clinical benefits of capnography in veterinary practice. The presentation will commence by introducing the basic principles of capnography, elucidating the physiological underpinnings of carbon dioxide (CO2) measurement, and its significance in assessing both ventilatory and circulatory aspects of patient health. Attendees will gain insights into the mechanics of capnography, including the technology behind mainstream and side stream […]
