Ihler CF Larsen J and Skjerve E Evaluation of clinical and laboratory variables as prognostic indicators in hospitalised gastrointestinal colic horses. Acta vet. scand. 2004 45 109-118. - The present prospective study included 106 horses referred to the Department of Large Animal Sciences The Norwegian School of Veterinary Science as non-responders to the initial colic treatment in general practise. In 14 of these cases a required surgical treatment was not performed due to economical or other reasons and were excluded from the study. Clinical and laboratory data were obtained at the arrival in the hospital. The outcome for all analyses was survival non-survival. A multivariable logistic regression was performed. The analyses were used in medically 46 horses and surgically treated cases 46 horses separately. The same analyses were also run for all 92 horses in a simulated field situation where only clinical variables and D-dimer values were included. The fraction of survivors was 78 in the medical and 48 in the surgical cases. In total 63 of the horses survived. In the final multivariable logistic regression model packed cell volume PCV was the only important predictor for medically treated cases and heart rate and presence of hyperaemic or cyanotic mucous membranes were the predictors in the surgically treated cases as well as in the simulated field situation. In conclusion traditional variables as heart rate mucous membranes and PCV were the important predictors for the outcome in hospitalised colic cases. horse colic prognosis clinical and laboratory variables hospital logistic regression .
