  1. VACciNES

  2. VACCINES • Substance that upon injection into an animal, stimulate an immune response • 2 main types • Modified-live • Killed

  3. MODIFIED-LIVE • Altered forms of specific antigens that are similar enough to the original disease-causing agent to cause a strong immune response without causing the disease

  4. KILLED • Disease-causing agents that are inactivated by heat, chemical or mechanical means. • Immunity developed is generally weaker than a modified-live • Possibility that animal is allergic to compound used to destroy the disease-causing agent

  5. DOGS Bordetella (kennel cough) Coronavirus Distemper Infectious hepatitis Leptospirosis Lyme disease Parainfluenza Parvovirus rabies CATS Feline calicivirus Feline leukemia virus Feline viral rhinotracheitis Panleukopenia rabies DISEASES TO VACCINATE FOR

  6. MEDICATION

  7. ROUTES OF ADMINISTRATION • Different ways of administering based on type of medication and how fast the animal needs to get it • Pill for heartworms can be given orally; drug to prevent shock should be given IV since it is a life or death situation

  8. COMMON ROUTES • Oral • Nasal • SubQ-subcutaneous (under the skin) • IM-intramuscular (in the muscle) • IP-intraperitoneal (in the abdominal cavity) • IV-intravenous (in the vein) • Most are given SubQ or IM

  9. Routes of Administration Nasal Sub-Q (subcutaneous) Oral IM (intramuscular) IP(intraperitoneal) IV (intravenous)

  10. NEEDLES & SYRINGES

  11. NEEDLES & SYRINGES • Come in many shapes & sizes • Need to be familiar with them so the appropriate type and size are used for every procedure

  12. NEEDLES • Different sizes called, gauges • Smaller the gauge, larger the needle • Common gauges • 16, 18, 20, 21, 22, 23, 25, 27 • Large gauge (16, 18, 20) • Horses, Swine, Cattle • Small gauge (21, 22, 23, 25, 27) • Cats, Dogs, Exotics

  13. SYRINGES • Come in various sizes, most common • Insulin, 1, 3, 5, 12, 20, 35, 60 ml • 1 ml are called tuberculin syringes • Smallest syringe is the insulin-comes with attached needles and are measured in units

  14. SYRINGE TIP • Leur-Lok tip-has a threaded tip to hold needle securely • Slip tip-this is the standard syringe tip • Eccentric tip-used to administer angle for IV injections • Catheter tip-used to administer oral medications and liquefied food

  15. FILLING A SYRINGE • Should have no air bubbles (can cause disturbances in blood circulation and even death) • Should be filled to correct amount
