What are the different types of hormonal sterilization methods available?4 answersHormonal sterilization methods include pharmacologic methods using progestins, androgens, or gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH) analogs. Immunocontraception through vaccination against GnRH, luteinizing hormone receptor, or zona pellucida proteins is also an option. Non-surgical sterilization methods for male dogs and cats include intratesticular or intraepididymal injections. Other mechanical methods for fertility disruption include intravaginal and intrauterine devices and ultrasound testicular ablation. The progestin-releasing intrauterine system, contraceptive patch and ring, and single rod progestin-releasing implant are newer options in hormonal contraception. These methods provide more acceptable, safe, and effective birth control regimens.

What is the protocol for performing surgical procedures in the intensive care unit?5 answersSurgical procedures in the intensive care unit (ICU) can be performed in both dedicated operating rooms and the ICU itself. The ICU offers advantages such as a sterile environment, trained support staff, readily available equipment, and superior lighting. Traditionally, ICU procedures were limited to short procedures under local anesthesia, but with the emergence of acute care surgery, more complex procedures are being performed in the ICU. These procedures can be categorized into two types: lifesaving procedures for unstable patients who cannot be transferred to the operating room, and uncomplicated procedures for which transfer to the operating room is deemed unnecessary. Careful organization and preparation with a multidisciplinary team are crucial for ensuring patient and clinician safety during these procedures.
