🐴 CASE SPOTLIGHT: When Colic Isn’t Really Colic!

📣 The Problem: A horse arrived at Pine Ridge Equine Hospital on emergency after repeatedly stretching out to urinate but producing little to no urine. What initially appeared to be colic signs turned out to be something much different!

🔎 The Diagnosis: Dr. Matz discovered a severely distended bladder and multiple large urinary stones lodged in the urethra, preventing normal urination.

🏥 The Treatment: Dr. Labbe performed surgery to successfully remove FOUR large stones! The horse remained hospitalized for several days for monitoring, bladder flushing, and supportive care.

❤️ The Outcome: At his 30-day recheck, the surgical site had healed well, and his bladder examination was normal. Stone analysis confirmed calcium carbonate, prompting dietary changes to reduce the risk of recurrence. This performance horse returned to full work and is doing great! 🏇

💡 Did You Know? Difficulty urinating can mimic signs of colic in horses. Repeatedly posturing to urinate without producing urine is a warning sign that warrants immediate veterinary attention.

They are the steady hands, watchful eyes, and compassionate hearts behind the care we provide.

They celebrate the victories most people never see and carry the weight of losses most will never understand. They work long hours, sacrifice sleep, get kicked, stepped on, and pushed to their limits. Yet they show up and give their all, time and time again.

These two simple measurements are something we routinely check in a horse’s blood sample. When evaluated individually they are not as useful as when paired together.

🩸 𝗣𝗖𝗩 (𝗣𝗮𝗰𝗸𝗲𝗱 𝗖𝗲𝗹𝗹 𝗩𝗼𝗹𝘂𝗺𝗲) measures the percentage of blood made up of red blood cells. When a horse becomes dehydrated, there is less fluid (plasma) circulating in the bloodstream, causing the red blood cells to become more concentrated. This can result in an increased PCV.

💧 𝗧𝗣 (𝗧𝗼𝘁𝗮𝗹 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝘁𝗲𝗶𝗻) measures the concentration of proteins in the blood’s plasma. As a horse loses fluids, these proteins can also become more concentrated, causing the TP to increase.

𝗪𝗵𝘆 𝗱𝗼 𝘄𝗲 𝗰𝗵𝗲𝗰𝗸 𝗕𝗢𝗧𝗛?
Together, PCV and TP help us:

* Assess hydration status
* Monitor fluid therapy and response to treatment
* Identify possible blood loss or protein loss
* Track changes in critically ill or hospitalized horses
* Indicators of infection and/or inflammation

A high PCV doesn’t always mean dehydration! Pain, excitement, and stress can cause a horse’s spleen to release stored red blood cells, temporarily increasing PCV without increasing TP. This is another reason why we interpret these values together, along with the horse’s physical examination and other clinical findings.

This quick, simple blood test is one of the many tools we use at Pine Ridge to monitor our patients and help guide their care.
