Relatório de estágio técnico profissional em medicina veterinária: clínica médica e cirurgia de animais silvestres e pets não convencionais

Abstract

The Professional Technical Internship (ETP) is a moment of learning where we can improve and put into practice the knowledge acquired during the Veterinary Medicine degree, in the area intended for professional practice. The ETP was carried out in three locations, totaling 636 hours, under the academic guidance of Prof. Dr. Leonardo José Gil Barcellos. The first location was the Marine Animal Recovery Center of the Federal University of Rio Grande (CRAM-FURG), located in Rio Grande/RS, from July 10 to 31, 2023, under local guidance from oceanographer Paula Lima Canabarro, accounting for 152 hours. The second location was Clínica Doutor Silvestre, located in the city of Rio de Janeiro/RJ, during the period from August 3rd to September 30th of the same year, under local guidance from Veterinary Doctor Brenda Ferreira Scultori da Silva, accounting for 400 hours. Subsequently, the internship was completed at Clínica ProSilvestres, also located in the city of Rio de Janeiro/RJ, from October 16th to 30th of the same year, under local guidance from Veterinary Doctor Loide de Melo Machado, totaling 84 hours. The activities carried out during the internship period included outpatient care, home care, carrying out complementary exams such as ultrasounds, x-rays, blood collection, echocardiogram, tomography, and veterinary medical monitoring at a legal parrot farm. I was able to follow the hospitalization routine, the treatments to be followed, and observe the patients' clinical progress. Finally, a case report will be presented on oviduct prolapse in a tortoise, which required immediate surgical intervention, also opting for a blood transfusion using a healthy donor of the same species. With the experiences gained during internships, I had the opportunity to deepen my knowledge in the area of ​​clinical and surgery for unconventional and exotic pets.
