(eg. description of the frequency and severity of the symptoms

The APSS veterinarian recommended that the attending veterinary staff supply supportive and symptomatic care to the animal; give fluid therapy; perform a chemistry profile and a complete blood count; and give prednisone, gastrointestinal protectants, and antibiotics. The animal was diagnosed with alopecia, papules, parasites, bloody diarrhea, and immune-mediated thrombocytopenia. While at the veterinary clinic the animal was bathed, remained on fluid therapy, received a blood transfusion, and was monitored for central nervous system signs. Diagnostic blood work was performed; gastrointestinal protectants and prednisone were administered; and symptomatic and supportive cares were provided. Despite the veterinary clinic's efforts, the animal died on April 18, 2008.
