(eg. description of the frequency and severity of the symptoms
Signalment 4.5 yr neutered male weighing 92.0 lb. Patient Note [Note : Piroxicam started 2 weeks ago for arthritis. (by FD on Jun 26, 2010 at 09:12 AM)] Agent Exposure Roundup Power Max Herbicide Cropshield Formula (observed agent id) Evidence exposure occurred on Jun 20, 2010 at 12:00 PM CDT (not specific ). Exposure involved 0.0 Not App (not specific) orally. The exposure was accidental, and occurred at animal owner yard. The agent was obtained from Other Retailer. The lot number was DNA. The expiration date was null. [Note : Product was sprayed 6/20/10 in the yard and near the dog's dishes outside. The dog started with vomiting 6/23/10. Yesterday evening, the vomiting was worse - increased frequency. The dog has been inappetant since yesterday am. On exam, laterally recumbent, hyperthermic - although his nail beds/pads were cold and cyanotic. MM - cyanotic. Low BP. Blood - thick and dark. Lab work is pending. DVM treated with NaCl IV fluids and Dexamethasone. The dog passed away 20 minutes ago. (by FD on Jun 26, 2010 at 09:12 AM)] Because the amount was somewhat consistent, the patient was considered to be at low risk of developing clinical signs. If signs develop, there is very low risk that those signs will be life-threatening. [Note : Roundup has a wide margin of safety. Can see mild vomiting and or diarrhea if a small amount of the product is ingested. Would not expect the clinical signs this pet demonstrated.
