  • Title: Study of variables commonly used in examination of equine colic cases to assess prognostic value.
    Author: Puotunen-Reinert A.
    Journal: Equine Vet J; 1986 Jul; 18(4):275-7. PubMed ID: 3758004.
    Abstract:
    In a retrospective study, the prognostic value and individual merit of seven variables, used in routine examination of colic cases, were tested. The following variables proved to be significant in discriminating between horses which survived and those which died: heart rate (P less than 0.00005), packed cell volume (P less than 0.00005) and intensity of colic signs (P less than 0.0001).
