Analysis of synovial fluid obtained from the left femoropatellar and right tarsocrural joints combined with clinical signs consisting of joint effusion and lameness yielded a diagnosis of septic arthritis. Bacterial culture of synovial fluid from the left stifle revealed Salmonella type III: 44. Rapid, sustained clinical improvement was noted following discontinuation of empirical antimicrobial therapy (potassium penicillin and amikacin sulphate) and initiation of treatment with ceftiofur and ampicillin. The importance of combining knowledge of veterinary pharmacology and microbiology so that appropriate antimicrobials may be selected with regard to the local environment in which they are to eradicate infection is emphasised. Despite frequent reference to amikacin sulphate as an effective antimicrobial for treating infections in foals caused by Salmonella, factors are discussed that explain why amikacin may not be clinically effective for treating infectious arthritis caused by Salmonella.}, number={3}, journal={EQUINE VETERINARY EDUCATION}, author={Close, K. and Gerard, M. and Davidson, G. and Schramme, M.}, year={2011}, month={Mar}, pages={121–126} } @article{schramme_pinto_davis_whisnant_whitacre_2008, title={Pharmacokinetics of carbetocin, a long-acting oxytocin analogue, following intravenous administration in horses}, volume={40}, ISSN={["0425-1644"]}, DOI={10.2746/042516408X334343}, abstractNote={Summary}, number={7}, journal={EQUINE VETERINARY JOURNAL}, author={Schramme, A.
