          Location: Bastrop, Texas | Such sad, shocking news. I feel bad for her.
Tying up can cause acute renal failure in severe cases of rhabdomyolysis, both in people and horses. In humans, most people can recover because renal failure is recognized and can be treated with dialysis, until the kidneys recover function, which usually happens. Dialysis has been done in horses, but not very much.
This should serve as a warning to us that we can take certain steps to lessen the chances of this happening, in severe cases of typing up. If the horse's urine looks like coca cola or tea, that's a bad case. They should have creatinine and electrolytes checked. Also, they need very aggressive hydration with balanced salt solutions like ringers or saline, and bicarbonate IV to lessen the chances of myoglobin from precipitating in the renal tubules. |
