Resumo
Goniometry has been used in canine orthopedics to assess clinics, surgical and/or
therapy physical treatment efficacy involving shoulder, elbow, carpal, hip, stifle and
tarsal. However, in dogs this procedure is few studied and validated to scientifics
researches. The purposes of this experiment were to estimate the maximum
flexion and extension angle of shoulder, elbow, carpus, hip, stifle and tarsus and
carpus adduction and abduction in dogs with breed Rottweiler, compare
goniometric joint measurements obtained from no sedated, sedated and
measurements made in radiography, and compare this goniometric joint
measurements between males and females. The goniometric assess was
accomplished by universal plastic goniometer, in 11 dogs Rottweilers, clinically
healthy, in Goiânia-GO. One examiner accomplished assess, tree times, in each
joint position (flexion and extension of shoulder, elbow, carpal, hip, stifle and
tarsal, as well as carpus adduction and abduction) before and after dogs sedation.
Also, accomplished measurements from radiographs taken of these joint positions
while dogs were sedated, totalizing 1386 measurements. To compare the joint
goniometric measure mean of animal nonsedated, sedated and radiographs was
used the Friedman test. To compare the goniometry between males and females
was used the t test. The differences were considered significant at values of
p 0,05, for all comparisons. The results indicated that joint measurements did not
differ significantly when compared goniometric measurements in nonsedated
dogs, sedated and radiographs, for all joints positions evaluated, exception for
shoulder and stifle extension and carpus adduction. Also, no significant differences
were identified between the sexes, exclusion the shoulder extension in sedated
dogs and carpus abduction in radiographs taken.
