      Semidomesticated Eurasian tundra reindeer (<i>Rangifer tarandus tarandus, n</i> = 21) were scheduled twice for chemical immobilization with medetomidine–ketamine as part of a scientific experiment in June 2014. During the first round of immobilizations, seven animals developed severe respiratory depression (RD). Three individuals died, and 4 recovered. The ambient temperature during the 2 days of ...
    • Fatal inanition in reindeer (Rangifer tarandus tarandus) : pathological findings in completely emaciated carcasses 

      Sørensen, Karen K.; Josefsen, Terje D.; Mørk, Torill; Mathiesen, Svein D.; Ryeng, Kathrine A. (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2007-09-28)
      Background: In a project to determine the causes of winter mortality in reindeer in Finnmark County, northern Norway, the most frequent diagnosis turned out to be complete emaciation, despite several of the reindeer having been given silage for up to 4 weeks before they died. The present paper describes autopsy results and other findings in these animals. Methods: Autopsies were made of 32 ...
    • Intraosseous fluid resuscitation causes systemic fat emboli in a porcine hemorrhagic shock model 

      Kristiansen, Steinar; Storm, Benjamin; Dahle, Dalia; Josefsen, Terje D.; Dybwik, Knut Gustav; Nilsen, Bent Aksel; Nielsen, Erik Waage (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-12-20)
      Background: Intraosseous cannulation can be life-saving when intravenous access cannot be readily achieved. However, it has been shown that the procedure may cause fat emboli to the lungs and brain. Fat embolization may cause serious respiratory failure and fat embolism syndrome. We investigated whether intraosseous fluid resuscitation in pigs in hemorrhagic shock caused pulmonary or systemic ...
