DISHAA is a tool to help veterinarians and owners assess the mental acuity of a dog, and for veterinarians to potentially diagnose Cognitive Dysfunction Syndrome (CDS). The prevalence of CDS increases with age 1 : 8 10 years: 3.4% years: 5% years: 23.3% >14 years: 41% Cognitive Dysfunction Syndrome may be diagnosed using the DISHAA questionnaire. In order for a dog to be diagnosed with CDS, owners must observe their dog exhibiting signs across several DISHAA categories.

100 RESOURCES TIPS ON INTERPRETING URINALYSIS BY MARILYN DUNN, DMV, MVSC., DIPL. ACVIM (INTERNAL MEDICINE) F O R M U L A S QUESTION ANSWER ACTION/INTERPRETATION HOW DOES THE METHOD OF URINE COLLECTION AFFECT THE RESULTS? R Cystocentesis and manual compression of the bladder can result in hematuria. R Free catch urine flows through the vestibule or prepuce and picks up cellular debris, bacteria, white blood cells and red blood cells (if a bitch is in heat). R Cleaning the vulva, prepuce prior to collection with an unscented baby wipe or 0.05% chlorhexidine solution and catching a midstream sample can help diminish contamination. DOES THE METHOD OF URINE COLLECTION AFFECT THE AMOUNT OF BACTERIA THAT CAN BE FOUND ON CULTURE? R Yes Quantitative bacterial cultures are essential to assess whether there is a significant amount of bacterial growth in urine. R The following are considered significant: Cystocentesis > 10 3 cfu*/ml Free catch/catheter > 10 4 cfu/ml in males and > 10 5 cfu/ml in females * cfu : colony formin units WHAT CAN EXPLAIN A HIGH URINE PH ( 8)? R Urine ph can vary throughout the day. An alkaline tide can occur 3-6 hours following a meal. R Urine kept at room temperature will have degradation of nitrogenous waste which can raise the ph. R A vegetarian diet results in a higher urine ph while a meat-based diet results in a lower urine ph. R A urinary tract infection with urease producing bacteria. Patient usuallypresents with signs consistent with a urinary tract infection (pollakiuria, dysuria) and white blood cells present on the urinalysis. R A urine ph >7 in an acidotic patient can be a sign of renal tubular acidosis (rare). R Evaluating urine ph in a patient following a 12 hour fast can avoid the influence of a meal. R Use a urine dipstick to check the ph immediately following collection. R Obtain a diet history. R Urine culture and sensitivity testing along with appropriate antibiotic therapy is indicated. R Further investigation is warranted. SHOULD I BE CONCERNED IF MY PATIENT HAS A PERSISTENTLY HIGH URINARY PH? R Not if you have ruled out concurrent disease. Struvite is poorly soluble in a high urine ph and therefore may precipitate and form stones in a patient at risk. R Struvite stones are most commonly associated with a urinary tract infection in canine patients. A diet resulting in a neutral ph may be indicated in feline patients with a history of stone disease. DOES THE PRESENCE OF BACTERIA ALWAYS MEAN A URINARY TRACT INFECTION (UTI)? R No Subclinical bacteriuria (presence of bacteria in the absence of any clinical signs) is common and has been reported in up to 9% of healthy bitches 3. R Subclinical bacteriuria is not pathologic and should not be treated in healthy individuals. Antibiotic therapy is not indicated and may lead to colonization of the urinary tract with drug resistant bacteria. WHAT IF THERE IS SIGNIFICANT PYURIA ALONG WITH THE BACTERIURIA? R Significant pyuria in the absence of clinical signs may indicate a UTI. R Treatment can be initiated if the clinician feels a UTI is likely. DO I NEED TO TREAT CRYSTALLURIA? R No Crystalluria indicates the urine is saturated and crystals of the saturated mineral have precipitated. Crystalluria can be transitory and is dependent on temperature, ph, urine volume, concentration of the mineral and balance between promoters and inhibitors of crystal formation. The more concentrated the urine the greater chance of crystalluria. R Some minerals are not normally present in urine such as cystine and urate. R Perform urinalysis immediately following collection to avoid changes in ph and temperature which can lead to crystalluria. In the absence of clinical signs or a previous stone history, no further testing or actions are recommended. R The presence of cystine and urate crystals warrants further investigation. DOES CRYSTALLURIA CAUSE CLINICAL SIGNS? R No Crystalluria by itself is not pathologic and will not lead to urinary tract signs. Crystalluria does not indicate the presence of stones and when stones are present do not necessarily reflect stone composition.
