Abstract(s)
A osteoartrite felina, uma doença articular degenerativa, é um importante problema de saúde em gatos. É uma doença que afeta a qualidade de vida dos gatos e representa um desafio para proprietários e veterinários. Ao compreender melhor os mecanismos da doença, é possível melhorar a sua deteção precoce e otimizar o seu maneio. Esta dissertação visa compilar vários dados sobre esta doença: a prevalência da osteoartrite em gatos, os fatores de risco associados e as opções terapêuticas disponíveis para melhorar a qualidade de vida dos animais afetados, recorrendo a uma revisão bibliográfica sobre o tema. A osteoartrite felina acomete principalmente as articulações dos membros e da coluna vertebral. Os fatores de risco incluem idade avançada, obesidade e história de lesões articulares. Tratamentos farmacológicos e terapias complementares podem ajudar a aliviar a dor e melhorar a mobilidade dos gatos afetados. Este estudo destaca a importância da deteção precoce e do controlo da osteoartrite em gatos. Ao fornecer informações sobre a prevalência, fatores de risco e opções terapêuticas, esta pesquisa visa melhorar os cuidados de saúde de gatos com osteoartrite e enriquecer a literatura científica sobre o assunto.
