Relatório de estágio técnico profissional supervisionado em medicina veterinária: clínica médica de pequenos animais

Abstract

The Professional Technical Internship (ETP) is a moment of practical learning in the area in which the student intends to work after graduation. During this period, the student has the opportunity to apply theoretical knowledge in resolving practical clinical situations, and, in this way, consolidate many of the learnings received during the development of the degree. The ETP was carried out in the Small Animal Medical Clinic area under the academic guidance of Professor Rafael Frandoloso and divided into two locations. Initially the internship was carried out at Save Especialidades Veterinárias, during the period from August 1st to September 1st, under local guidance from Veterinary Doctor Jeane Beatriz Train, totaling 184 hours. And, subsequently, the internship took place in the Small Animal Medical Clinic area of ​​the Veterinary Hospital of the University of Passo Fundo (HV-UPF), from September 4th to October 20th, under local guidance from Veterinary Doctor Mariana Dalla Palma, totaling 265 hours. In total, 449 hours of internship were carried out. During the ETP, I had the opportunity to monitor clinical, urgent and emergency care, assist in outpatient procedures, collect biological samples and restrain patients for imaging exams. In this report, I will present the places where I carried out the internship, and describe the activities carried out. The case series, for better understanding, was organized into organic systems and by species assisted. Finally, I present a case report of Dilated Cardiomyopathy observed in a Boxer canine. Therefore, I highlight that ETP provided me with unique experiences during the final phase of my degree; I was able to follow professionals from different areas and experience the routine of different sectors, which enabled my professional and personal maturity in the profession.
