Reminders: Skin and mucous membranes provide
barrier to outside world THEREFORE
Surgery disturbs this barrier and allows for bacterial entry
![Page 6: Principles of Surgery](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032612/56812fe8550346895d95605e/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Prevention of Bacterial Entry through barrier Environment has bacteria everywhere! Aseptic Technique
General practices used to minimize the risk of infection
Must be comprehensive! Includes
Management of facility, patient, surgical site, surgeon and equipment
![Page 7: Principles of Surgery](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032612/56812fe8550346895d95605e/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Disinfectants: Used to clean facility, used on inanimate
objects Normally too harsh for direct skin contact
![Page 8: Principles of Surgery](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032612/56812fe8550346895d95605e/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Sterilization: Tools are potential bacteria
carriers Instruments are cleaned of
debris (tissue etc) Kills all micro-organisms Uses pressure and steam
Autoclave : tools packed in steaming wrap, 15 to 30mins at 275 degrees
![Page 9: Principles of Surgery](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032612/56812fe8550346895d95605e/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Common Procedures Outline Categorize Explain how they work What safety considerations are outlined?
Are they visible to the naked eye? Where is the safety information located?
How to read an MSDS Activity

Provides clean incision Typical designed for single use
Disposal , removal off handle Varying Sizes and Shapes
![Page 13: Principles of Surgery](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032612/56812fe8550346895d95605e/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Holds needle for suturing Teeth provide strong grip Insert replaced as teeth wear out
![Page 14: Principles of Surgery](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032612/56812fe8550346895d95605e/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Various Shapes and Sizes (depends on surgery)
Curved = more maneuverable
Straight= cut through tough tissue
Normally in packs Metzenbaum – delicate
tissue Mayo – tough tissue
![Page 15: Principles of Surgery](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032612/56812fe8550346895d95605e/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Appear like tweezers Tip will vary depending on use
Serrated= delicate tissue holding Heavy teeth= secure grip Ratchet locking grip= secure hold
(prolonged grip) Not used for delicate tissue
![Page 16: Principles of Surgery](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032612/56812fe8550346895d95605e/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
“Hemostats” Have a ratchet lock Used to clamp blood vessels (HEMO)
Once clamped, vessel can be ligated (tied off)
![Page 17: Principles of Surgery](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032612/56812fe8550346895d95605e/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Hold tissues to expose surgical area so the surgeon has a better view
Self retaining or held by assistant
![Page 18: Principles of Surgery](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032612/56812fe8550346895d95605e/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Surgical drapes cover animal during surgery
Only area open is surgical site Clamps keep towel in place during
surgery and help prevent contamination
![Page 19: Principles of Surgery](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032612/56812fe8550346895d95605e/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Used to bring uterus through tiny incinsion
![Page 20: Principles of Surgery](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032612/56812fe8550346895d95605e/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Covered in bacteria naturally To prevent spread
Gloves, mask, head cover, gown Wash hands (up to elbows)
with antiseptic soap and scrub brush Scrub should last 5 minutes to
properly clean Hold cleanest part highest
(hands in the air)
![Page 21: Principles of Surgery](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032612/56812fe8550346895d95605e/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Area cleared of general debris
Normally shaved or clipped clean Loose hair is vacuumed off
Scrubbed with antiseptic soap , sometimes iodine Central region scrubbed first
then work outward in a circular motion
![Page 22: Principles of Surgery](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032612/56812fe8550346895d95605e/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
“Clean” Healthy skin is entered, healthy tissue is
removed Examples
Spay/Neuter
![Page 23: Principles of Surgery](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032612/56812fe8550346895d95605e/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)

Laceration Healing
![Page 25: Principles of Surgery](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032612/56812fe8550346895d95605e/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
How does a wound heal?
![Page 26: Principles of Surgery](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032612/56812fe8550346895d95605e/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Understanding healing is essential to surgery and trauma treatment
![Page 27: Principles of Surgery](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032612/56812fe8550346895d95605e/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Hemostasis Phase: Bleeding Begins directly after trauma or surgery breach Bleeding helps to flush the wound Instantly the vessels constrict, blood flow
slows Blood starts to clot
Protects from excessive blood loss Clot dries= scab
Scab allows for protection and for healing underneth
![Page 28: Principles of Surgery](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032612/56812fe8550346895d95605e/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Inflammation Phase: Blood vessels dilate
Bring more white blood cells to the area White blood cells help destroy damaged tissue
and bacteria Dilated vessels increase heat into the region
and produce red area Damaged tissue releases plasma and adds to the
swelling area Signs of inflammation phase
Swelling, heat, redness, pain
![Page 29: Principles of Surgery](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032612/56812fe8550346895d95605e/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Repair/ Proliferation Phase Begins simultaneously with inflammation
process Connective tissue enter the damaged area and
begin to form new fibrous connective tissue Proliferation of cells in the new connective
fibers and matrix Capillaries begin to grow within the area Produces a granular appearance on the skin
Tissue at this stage is called granulated tissue
![Page 30: Principles of Surgery](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032612/56812fe8550346895d95605e/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
This tissue fills the gap between the wound edges and sets barrier from infection (Reminder)Rich supply of capillaries
increases amount of white blood cells As the G tissue forms E tissue form
across the edges Cells continue to layer and thicken
![Page 31: Principles of Surgery](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032612/56812fe8550346895d95605e/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Remodeling Phase Gap is closed (Second Intention Healing) Occurs within several weeks of wound, but
can last for years! (scar tissue) Connective tissue w/in the wound becomes
more organized and shrinks (scars shrink) Strength of wound increases over time
![Page 32: Principles of Surgery](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032612/56812fe8550346895d95605e/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Proud Flesh: Common in lower leg wounds in horses Over growth of granulated tissue prevents
epithelial tissue from covering the wound
![Page 33: Principles of Surgery](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032612/56812fe8550346895d95605e/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Illustrate the wound healing process Graphic organizer : Cause Effect Chain
![Page 34: Principles of Surgery](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032612/56812fe8550346895d95605e/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Aseptic Techniques – decrease bacteria Gentle handling during surgery-
decreases inflammation response Appropriate incisions- less disruption of
blood supply = faster healing
![Page 35: Principles of Surgery](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032612/56812fe8550346895d95605e/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Dead space: important to consider Present because of tissue separation Tumor removal leaves a pocket
Types of Accumulation Hematoma – accumulation of blood in the dead
open space Seroma- more puss like Abscess- contains bacteria, white blood cells, dead
tissues Fluid build up= increases tension @ wound site
![Page 36: Principles of Surgery](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032612/56812fe8550346895d95605e/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Two main methods Decrease size of pocket during surgery
Sew together tissues manually Latex tubing
Penrose drain (passive) Active Drain
![Page 37: Principles of Surgery](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032612/56812fe8550346895d95605e/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Outline the steps for suturing a wound. What are the TYPES of sutures What do they look like? How are they sewn? (only do a general
outline for sewing a wound closed) What are important items to consider when
suturing a trauma or surgical wound?
![Page 38: Principles of Surgery](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032612/56812fe8550346895d95605e/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Surgical Considerations
![Page 39: Principles of Surgery](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032612/56812fe8550346895d95605e/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
More than one method to a surgery Possible Differences
Approach Order of Steps Tech methods / Tools etc
![Page 40: Principles of Surgery](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032612/56812fe8550346895d95605e/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Aka Ovariohysterectomy Steps:
Animal anesthetized and secured to table Scrubbed Start surgery
![Page 41: Principles of Surgery](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032612/56812fe8550346895d95605e/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Most common Ventral Midline incision
Middle of the stomach Why the midline?
Abdominal muscles naturally have a gap (Linea Alba) Little bleeding , easy access to organs
Locate Uterus (near the spine) Deep in cavity
Use spay hook to contact and begin uterine horn removal
![Page 42: Principles of Surgery](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032612/56812fe8550346895d95605e/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
Control blood flow All arteries are ligated by the three-clamp
method Vessels are sutured Clamps releases
Check for leaking
Ligaments cut Ligaments located Ligaments holding the uterus are ligated Uterus is free
![Page 43: Principles of Surgery](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032612/56812fe8550346895d95605e/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
Organ removal Ovaries, uterine horns, uterine body all removed
Cavity Check No bleeding in dead space
Suture Sub Q tissue tightened to close dead space Absorbable using a tapered point needle
Close Linea Alba Close epithelial label with NON absorbable
suture (stitches removed later)
![Page 44: Principles of Surgery](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032612/56812fe8550346895d95605e/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
Same incision : Ventral Midline Possible findings?
Looped intestine Blood supply cut off from segment Intestine become necrotic (dead) Reposition : If severe, section must be removed
attaching only healthy portions together ( intestinal anastomosis)
![Page 45: Principles of Surgery](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032612/56812fe8550346895d95605e/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
AKA gastric dilation- volvulus syndrome (GDV) Occurs in deep chested breeds ( Boxer)
Circulation to the stomach is disrupted Vomiting common symptom (food cannot move
forward, build up of gases) Diagnosis through radiographs / Xrays Treatment:
IV fluids to reduce shock Tube down esophagus to relieve gas pressure
If stomach is twisted surgery is needed
![Page 46: Principles of Surgery](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032612/56812fe8550346895d95605e/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
Ventral midline incision along linea alba Bladder brought the surface through
incision Gauze surrounding surgical area to prevent
urine entering abdomen Incision of bladder Stones removed Continuous mattress suture Suture abdomen
![Page 47: Principles of Surgery](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022032612/56812fe8550346895d95605e/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
Surgical Considerations What procedures are cited? Outline their process What are common complications that occur after surgeries? What is the common approach used? (Common incision used). What is the
location and why is this location used? What characteristic of tumors makes for difficult removal? How do vets
combat this problem? What are the challenges present when working in the chest cavity? How
do vets combat these problems? What is orthopedic surgery? What are common ways to perform repairs
during orthopedic surgery? Summarizing: In 10 sentences or less summarize surgery in veterinary
practice. What might make is more difficult in animals than human surgery? What are basic principles? How does one generally perform surgery based off these principles? How does one perform a surgery correctly?

Define: Aseptic, Disinfectant, Sterilization, Proud Flesh, First Intention Healing, Second Intention Healing, Penrose Drain, Suture, GVD, Ovariohysterectomy
What is the 1st and more important principle of surgery? What is the most common aseptic technique? (We use it in class, and before
surgery) How long should this technique be performed? List the common tools and what they are used for How is the surgeon prepped ? How is the animal prepped? Explain how they are “washed” and why it is
done in this manner What are the phases of wound healing? What ways can wound healing time be minimized? What is a common problem in wound healing in horses? What are the two kinds of drains and how does each drain work? What are the types of sutures (draw them) What are the steps in spaying an animal
