What to do if your dog has gastric torsion, and how to treat a dog with gastric torsion?

If your dog has gastric torsion, don't hesitate to send it to the hospital immediately and let the doctor perform surgery.

Unless you can't reach the hospital in a short time, doctors do not recommend deflating your pet on your own, as there is a certain risk.

Pay attention to these after gastric torsion in dogs:

Avoid strenuous exercise after drinking a lot of water (within 1-30 minutes) after a meal (1 hour or more).

Do not feed your pet a lot of water at one time when exercising, and do not feed too much food at one time, it is best to divide it into 2-3 meals.

Pets with gastric torsion are more likely than ordinary pets, so try to avoid strenuous running, jumping and rolling.

** It is surgery, conservative is not necessarily good, and the mortality rate is high when considered as early as possible.

1. The primary release of gas.

An orogastric tube can be used to release the gas, followed by a gastric lavage with warm water to remove the stomach contents. If your dog is struggling, try inserting a needle directly into the stomach through the body wall to release gas.

2. Surgery as soon as possible.

Because a twisted stomach may cause necrosis of the stomach wall, the twisted stomach must be replaced. If there is necrosis of the stomach lining due to gastric torsion, it must be removed.

3. Gastric fixation.

After the dog's stomach is replaced, gastric fixation is performed. Gastrodesis prevents recurrence of torsion and prolongs survival.

4. Prevent twisting.

Pay attention to scientific feeding to prevent gastric torsion. Eat small, frequent meals every day, do not feed the dog in an elevated bowl, and slow down the dog's eating. Avoid intense running and tumbling for 1 hour before and after meals, and do not let your dog suddenly drink a lot of water after meals.

Immediately after the dog has eaten enough, the dog performs strenuous exercise, especially rolling, running back and forth on the stairs and other activities, and the gastric ligament may cause twisting in the violent and sudden rotational movement, causing the dog's stomach to turn over completely. If it is not detected in time and sent to the hospital for surgery, the dog can only last a day or two at most before dying, so it is a very difficult disease.

It's terrible, stomach disease, well, the dog has stomach disease, how to twist it**, if you want to cure the dog's disease, you also give the dog a stomach medicine, and then it will be fine.

Early laparotomy correction is advisable, including anatomical reduction of the stomach and spleen, and fixation of the stomach to the abdominal wall to prevent **. Postoperative infusion and potassium supplementation should be paid attention to prevent and ** shock, hypokalemia, heart rhythm disorders and other complications.

Surgery should be performed as soon as possible** as the disease progresses quickly and there is a high chance that gastric necrosis will occur in a very short period of time. The stomach and spleen are examined with Chinese medicine, the necrotic tissue is removed, and the torsion of the stomach is reset, and the torsion is fixed to prevent persistent torsion.

I come to this question, what should I do if my dog has stomach torsion**?

I don't think I should handle it myself if I don't have experience, take the dog to the pet hospital and let the professionals handle it for you.

Stomach torsion is more common in large dogs, and less common in small dogs. Once you find that the dog has symptoms of gastric torsion, please send it to the hospital in time to avoid delaying the condition.

Actively deal with shock and release pressure on the stomach.

If the dog is in a state of shock, it must be given an intravenous retention needle and a fluid to raise blood pressure. If the stomach is bulging, the gas can be released by an orogastric tube, followed by warm water to remove the stomach contents. If the dog is unable to cooperate, it can try to insert a needle directly into the stomach through the body wall to release gas.

Gastric reduction and gastric fixation.

In dogs with gastric torsion on x-ray, surgery is best performed as soon as possible if possible (because the torsion of the stomach can harm the blood perfusion of the stomach wall and may cause necrosis of the stomach wall), and the torsion must be replaced. If gastric torsion causes extensive infarction of the spleen, the spleen must be removed at the same time. If there is necrosis of the stomach lining, it must also be removed.

After gastric reduction, gastropexy is performed. Gastrodesis prevents recurrence of torsion and prolongs survival. There have been reports of recurrence of GDV in 75 to 80 percent of dogs who have not undergone gastric fixation.

Dogs with gastric distension that have not yet achieved gastric volvulus are more likely to develop GDV later in life. Therefore, it is recommended that they schedule a surgical gastexation after the current gastric distension** to prevent future gastric torvulus.

Seventy-six percent of dogs have stomach torsion without surgery, and six percent have surgery done.

The overall mortality rate is about 24 percent without surgery, the rate is about 76 percent within one year, the mortality rate is 100 percent without surgery, and the mortality rate is about 16 to 28 percent within one week after surgery, and the rate is about 6 percent within one year.

Symptomatic manifestations of gastric torsionAnxious gaze or looking at the abdomen, manifested as standing and stretching, drooling, protruding abdomen, retching without anything, the dog may begin to gasp, appear bloating, or weak and weak, lying down, during the physical examination, pets often have an elevated heartbeat and respiratory rate, poor pulse quality, poor capillary congestion time, abdominal distension is common.
