Why the study?

Does aspirin administration reduce urinary thromboxane metabolites in healthy dogs?

Population

20 healthy dogs

Comparison

Aspirin 1 mg/kg PO q 24 h for 7 consecutive… vs Baseline (prior to aspirin administration)

Design

Preclinical

Follow-up

7 days (first phase) and single dose after 5-month washout

Key result

Aspirin at 1 mg/kg/d did not significantly decrease urinary 11-dehydroTXB(2) concentration in healthy dogs, suggesting this dosage may be insufficient for reliable platelet inhibition.

Overview

Questions efficacy of 1 mg/kg/d aspirin for platelet inhibition in dogs; leaves open optimal dosing for clinical use.

Structured PICO

Does aspirin administration reduce urinary thromboxane metabolites in healthy dogs?

P
Population
20 healthy dogs evaluated for urinary thromboxane metabolite responses to 1 mg/kg/d and 10 mg/kg aspirin dosages.
I
Intervention
Aspirin 1 mg/kg PO q 24 h for 7 consecutive doses, followed by a 5-month washout period, then a single dose of aspirin 10 mg/kg PO (in 10 dogs)
C
Comparator
Baseline (prior to aspirin administration)
O
Outcome
Urinary 11-dehydro-thromboxane B(2) [11-dehydroTXB(2)] and 2,3-dinorTXB(2) concentrations normalized to urine creatininesurrogate

Aspirin at 1 mg/kg/day may be insufficient for reliable platelet inhibition in healthy dogs based on urinary thromboxane metabolite levels.

Cite This Study

Hoh et al. (2011) studied Healthy dogs (n=20). Aspirin vs. Baseline was evaluated on Urinary 11-dehydro-thromboxane B(2) and 2,3-dinorTXB(2) concentrations. Aspirin at 1 mg/kg/d did not significantly decrease urinary 11-dehydroTXB(2) concentration in healthy dogs, suggesting this dosage may be insufficient for reliable platelet inhibition.
