Van de 100 senior katten die door hun eigenaar als gezond worden beschouwd, hoeveel denkt u dat er in werkelijkheid ziek zijn…?
Dit is precies de vraag die Dr. Sylvie Daminet zich stelde voordat ze haar studie "Apparently Healthy for the Owner" startte. Dus, als we goed zoeken, vinden we dan verrassingen?
Ter herinnering: in 2021 benadrukte de AAFP het belang van gezondheidscontroles voor senior katten:
· Katten van 10 tot 15 jaar moeten elke 6 maanden een dierenarts bezoeken.
· Katten ouder dan 15 jaar zouden elke 4 maanden gecontroleerd moeten worden.
Herontdek het belang van deze gezondheidscontroles aan de hand van de bevindingen uit de studie "Apparently Healthy for the Owner" van Dr. Daminet, in de eerste aflevering van onze reeks "Het advies van de specialist - Nieuwigheden over de gezondheid van de nier ?".
Sylvie Daminet graduated in 1992 from the University of Liège in Belgium. Thereafter she performed an internship followed by a residency in Internal Medicine at the University of Montreal in Canada. In 1996 she became a diplomate of the American College of Veterinary Internal Medicine and of the European College of Veterinary Internal Medicine (ACVIM & ECVIM).
She was an assistant Professor at the Universities of Montreal and Prince Edward Island in Canada and Lecturer at the Royal Veterinary College in London (England). She obtained her PhD on thyroid function tests in dogs at the University of Ghent in Belgium in 2002. Currently she is a full Professor at the same University.
