Animal medicine improvement

Pain management.When I first began practicing veterinary
medicine, a commonly held belief was that animals didn’t
experience pain in the same way humans did. It was even thought
that pain relief would get in the way of their recovery after
surgery: If they felt good enough to move around, they might
become active too soon and tear their stitches. Now we know that
animals heal more quickly when they’re not in pain, and we have
better medications and treatments for pain, including stem cell
procedures for joint pain and new classes of drugs for managing
pain.
Individualized care. It wasn’t so long ago that we recommended
the same vaccinations and the same spay/neuter surgery at the
same ages for every animal we treated. These days, vets opt for
personalized pet health protocols that take into account breed,
size and lifestyle. Not every animal needs every vaccination,
and the right time for spay/neuter surgery can vary. For
example, in some large and giant breeds, studies show that
spay/neuter surgery before full maturity is linked to increases
in the incidence of certain diseases. Instead of automatically
scheduling these surgeries at the traditional age of 6 months,
we now take your dog’s individual needs into account. We are
also looking at new ways of vaccinating cats to prevent cancers
that form at the injection site of a vaccination. They include
decreasing the frequency of vaccines, nasal delivery of
vaccines, vaccines that are air-driven into the skin and
vaccinating the cat in the tail tip, which can be easily
amputated if a vaccine sarcoma forms there. And gene expression
profiling means that one day we may be able to create
individualized cancer treatments for specific pets.
More specialists. The first two veterinary specialties were
pathology and public health, back in 1950. Can you believe that
was more than 60 years ago? There are now 40 distinct
specialties, including anesthesia, behavior, dentistry,
dermatology, emergency and critical care medicine, neurology,
preventive medicine, surgery and toxicology. Today, more than
11,000 veterinarians with advanced training are available to
work with us to treat animals with unusual or complex health
problems.
The Internet. I’ve often said that one of the signs of a really
good veterinarian is a willingness to say “I don’t know,”
followed by “but I’ll find out.” The Internet has made it easier
than ever for us to do that. Email and portals such as
Veterinary Information Network give us the ability to quickly
pick the brains of experts for second opinions and digitally
share X-rays and test results across the country or even across
the globe.
