Chaudhary Sarwan Kumar Himachal Pradesh Agriculture University, Palampur

Himachal Pradesh Krishi Vishvavidyalaya (renamed as Chaudhary Sarwan Kumar Himachal Pradesh Krishi Vishvavidyalaya in June, 2001) was established on 1st November, 1978.The College of Agriculture (established in May, 1966) formed the nucleus of the new farm University. It is ICAR accredited and ISO 9001:2015 certified institution. The Indian Council of Agricultural Research has ranked this University at eleventh place among all farm universities of the country. The University has been given the mandate for making provision for imparting education in agriculture and other allied branches of learning, furthering the advancement of learning and prosecution of research and undertaking extension of such sciences, especially to the rural people of Himachal Pradesh. Over the years, this University has contributed significantly in transforming the farm scenario of Himachal Pradesh. It has developed human resources, varieties and technologies and transferred these to farming community enabling the State to receive the “Krishikarman award” of Govt. of India four times in row for food grain production among small states of the country. Today, the State has earned its name for hill agricultural diversification and the farming community has imposed its faith in the University.

STUDIES ON IMAGE GUIDED INTERVENTIONS IN LARGE ANIMAL CLINICAL PROCEDURES
(CSKHPKV, Palampur, 2017-07-24) Singh, Jobanjit; Kumar, Adarsh
The aim of the present study was to determine the actual effectiveness of various image-guided interventions for the management of large animal patients suffering from several diseases and disorders. A total of 75 large animal patients were subjected to investigation, with the usage of imaging modalities viz. ultrasonography, laparoscopy and endoscopy, for executing various interventions. The brachial plexus on sonography appeared as multiple hypoechoic structures surrounded by a hyperechoic rim. Its adequate, low dosage, complication free blockade was accomplished. Ultrasound guidance for the identification of hyperechoic sciatic nerve and its approach from the proximal third of the femur was found to be a relatively simple technique. Satisfactory surgical analgesia of the flank region was achieved using ultrasound-guided paravertebral regional block with an out-of-plane approach used for needle insertion proving to be more efficient in contrast to an in-plane-approach. Ultrasound guided puncture of the atlanto occipital joint for CSF collection and myelography proved to be very precise and easy which precludes the complications related to blind puncture. It doesn’t necessitate the ventroflexion of the head thus avoiding stress, resistance to handling and possible respiratory depression in animals and moreover, yielded grossly clear and colourless CSF samples having no or minimal microscopic evidence of blood contamination. Transhepatic ultrasound guided cholecystocentesis was performed with precision and accuracy at the 11th ICS and is of extreme diagnostic value in bovine medicine. The isolation of the star-shaped portal vein and its centesis was performed through the 11th, 10th and 9th intercostal spaces. Ultrasound steered percutaneous portocentesis is a simple and safe procedure. Ultrasonic guided abdominocentesis helped in identifying the smallest and safest location of puncture anywhere in the abdomen without complication. All the major identifiable organs of alimentary tract can easily be sampled using ultrasound. Ultrasound-guided biopsy of the right kidney, liver, spleen, and pancreas can be derived with exactitude and specificity of the area of interest. Thoracic cavity effusions can be managed effectively utilizing ultrasound-guided thoracocentesis. Laparoscopy guided biopsies precluded the invasive and often time consuming surgical interventions and facilitated the direct visualization of the target organs. Intra-operative laparoscopy assisted procedures like ovariectomy enabled the minimal exposure of the abdominal and pelvic cavities and their access under visual monitoring by minimal manipulation of visceral organs. It further allowed the assessment of a perfect vascular pedicle ligature. Endoscopy guided, electrosurgical resection of obstructive lesions inside the teat cistern ensured its maximum removal without damaging the healthy mucosa. The use of image guided interventions is a step forward for the advancement of large animal medicine and surgery.

THE DIAGNOSIS AND MANAGEMENT OF CATARACT IN ANIMALS
(CSKHPKV, Palampur, 2017-01-06) KUMAR, Amit; Tyagi, SP
ABSTRACT The present study was undertaken to record the regional occurrence of ocular affections and to diagnose and manage the cataracts in animals. The study was done on 2814 animal patients presented to the department of Veterinary Surgery and Radiology, Palampur for over a period of 30 months from April 2015 to September 2017. The incidence of ocular affection in animals was found to be 10.95% in which 76.94% showed singular and 57.79 % bilateral affections. The ocular patients included 235 dogs, 49 bovine, 12 equine and 12 other animal species. Species, sex and age-wise incidences were highest in dogs, males and adults respectively. The corneal (36.26%) and lenticular (14.01%) affections were more common. The incidence of the cataract was 1.71 per cent in all the surgical patients and accounted for 15.58 per cent of ocular disorders. Twenty seven cataract surgeries were performed in different animal species after standardizing the procedure on goat/sheep cadaver eyes. Standard pre and post-operative treatment protocol was used in all uncomplicated clinical cases of cataract surgeries. The small animals were operated under general anaesthesia and the large ones under regional nerve block and sedation. The central eyeball position was achieved by using retrobulbar anaesthesia in 4 dogs and NMBA in 18 with the later proving substantially better. Eyeballs were positioned in front of operating microscope and stabilized with 2-4 stay sutures. The major and minor surgical ports were made as clear corneal incisions at about 10-11 and 2-3 O’clock position respectively. Trypan blue dye was used to stain AC satisfactorily and 1 ml of diluted adrenaline (1:10000) was used intra-camerally to augment the mydriasis. Different OVDs were used during surgeries to maintain the shape of anterior chamber and the use of a combination of low and higher viscosity OVDs together proved better. A clean circular capsulotomy of a desirable diameter (5-6 mm) could be performed in twelve cases using CTCC and the IOL could be placed in 5 dogs following phacoemulsification and extraction of lens. Complete and proper ‘endo-capsular’ extraction of cataract could be accomplished successfully only in nine dogs. One month follow-up revealed restoration of good functional vision in 8 (36.36%), fair in 6 (27.27%) and poor in three (13.64%) dogs. Five dogs were found to be blind (22.73%). Intraocular bleeding, radial tear, vitreous presentation and IOL haptic breakage were intraoperative and uveitis, retinal-detachment, posterior-synechiae are the postoperative complications. Long term follow-up beyond one month ranging from 6 months to 35 months could be possible in 11 dogs, which revealed deterioration in vision in 4 (36.37%) and improvement in 7 (63.63%) cases. In addition to twenty two dogs, five cataract surgeries were done in one calf, cow and bull each during the study period in which the cow was unable to recover and the other two animals got functional vision postoperatively.
