2017 journal article

Repeatability and accuracy testing of a weight distribution platform and comparison to a pressure sensitive walkway to assess static weight distribution

VETERINARY AND COMPARATIVE ORTHOPAEDICS AND TRAUMATOLOGY, 30(2), 160–164.

By: G. Bosscher, A. Tomas*, S. Roe n , D. Marcellin-Little* & B. Lascelles

author keywords: Pressure sensitive walkway; static weight distribution; weight distribution platform; repeatability
MeSH headings : Animals; Body Weight; Dogs / physiology; Posture; Pressure; Reproducibility of Results; Veterinary Medicine / instrumentation; Walking / physiology
TL;DR: The weight distribution platform is a repeatable and accessible device to measure static weight distribution, and if proven the same in a clinical setting, it will be a valuable addition to current objective measures of limb use. (via Semantic Scholar)

2015 journal article

Initial evaluation of a canine stifle arthrotomy post-operative pain model

VETERINARY JOURNAL, 204(3), 293–298.

By: A. Tomas n, D. Bledsoe, S. Wall n, G. Davidson n & B. Lascelles  n

author keywords: Arthrotomy; Ground reaction force; Pain model; Percentage bodyweight distribution; Symmetry index; Extended-release buprenorphine
MeSH headings : Analgesics, Opioid / administration & dosage; Analgesics, Opioid / pharmacology; Animals; Buprenorphine / administration & dosage; Buprenorphine / pharmacology; Cross-Over Studies; Delayed-Action Preparations; Dogs; Male; Orthopedic Procedures / adverse effects; Orthopedic Procedures / veterinary; Pain Measurement / veterinary; Pain, Postoperative / drug therapy; Pain, Postoperative / pathology; Pain, Postoperative / veterinary; Stifle / surgery
TL;DR: Subjective assessments did not detect the pain-inducing effects of arthrotomy or pain-alleviating effects of treatment, and subjective measures of procedural pain in research dogs need to be developed. (via Semantic Scholar)

2014 journal article

Relationship Between Mechanical Thresholds and Limb Use in Dogs With Coxofemoral Joint OA-Associated Pain and the Modulating Effects of Pain Alleviation From Total Hip Replacement on Mechanical Thresholds

VETERINARY SURGERY, 43(5), 542–548.

By: A. Tomas n, D. Marcellin-Little n, S. Roe n , A. Motsinger-Reif n & B. Lascelles  n
