Poisoning by fosforados organs
The poisoning by organs-fosforados is common in this zone (Valley of River Negro and Neuquén - Patagonia Argentina) because this type of toxic is used in the small farms as insecticide for the fruit plants.
Two types of poisoning in the dogs exist; one is the chronicle that is rarer its presentation, that it happens generally in the months of March and April, must to that there are animals in the small farms that take the custom to follow the curadora machine and they are impregnated with the product in gradual form and with this toxic it penetrates through the skin and it is accumulated in the liver, in a while given by different causes is released to the blood giving the picture of poisoning at the end of the summer.
The other form is acute that happens by the food ingestion contaminated by the product, which has a very high degree of toxicity by ej: 15 mililiter (a sopera spoonful) can kill a person of 70 kg. The animal soon after ingesting the food with toxic shows violent symptoms like convulsions, gastroenteritis and signs of asphyxia by the blockade that exists of respiratory muscles and the musculatura in general, due to the changes physical-chemistries that the toxic produces. Of which it dies or one is saved the animal depends on the amount of product that ingested and that was absorbed, because an antidote exists but there is a limit for the application of he himself.
The treatment consists of the endovenosa application of the antidote and of right-twist hydrating the patient and protecting the liver that very is affected with this type of poisoning, also hepáticos protectors are applied and if it is indicated will become a lavaje of stomach, but this last one sometimes is useless because when the animal shows the signs it means that the toxic already was absorbed and is in the blood.
The prognosis is good when the animal responds to the medication in the first 24 hs. and a manifest recovery exists, if on the contrary the animal enters a postration state and it does not respond to the external stimuli the prognosis of is reserved serious, if the animal gets itself to recover is necessary to at least follow the treatment with hepáticos protectors 5 7 days since the liver is injured and if does not treat it as it corresponds can have future complications.
This type of poisoning happens because the animal walks loose and without control in its meals and strolls. It is suggested to at night avoid the ?vueltita? in the morning or of the loose animal, on the contrary to treat if it is possible to walk it with necklace and strap, thus avoiding problems with the neighbors and who the animalito does not have an accident by car or as in this case by poisoning.
