Abstract Kućni ljubimci svakodnevno su izloženi raznim otrovima ili potencijalno otrovnim tvarima,
ponajprije rodenticidima, pesticidima, humanim i veterinarskim lijekovima te hrani koja može
biti toksična za njih, unesenim u organizam ingestijom ili putem kože. Kada vlasnik posumnja
na otrovanje svog kućnog ljubimca, najprije treba potražiti pomoć od veterinara. Ako to nije u
mogućnosti, za pomoć se može obratiti centru za kontrolu otrovanja ili pronaći podatke o
otrovanju u primarnim, sekundarnim i tercijarnim izvorima informacija. Primarne izvore
informacija čine časopisi, odnosno radovi objavljeni u njima, koji pružaju najnovije informacije
i opise istraživanja. Sekundarni izvori kompiliraju primarne, a u veterinarskoj se medicini
najčešće koriste MEDLINE, PubMed, Scopus te VJ Indeks. U tercijarne izvore informacija
spadaju udžbenici, računalne baze podataka te internetski izvori. Udžbenici sadrže sažete
preglede tema iz različitih područja, dok baze podataka i internetski izvori omogućuju brz
pristup najnovijim informacijama. Prednosti i mane ovih izvora navedene su u radu. Centri za
kontrolu otrovanja pružaju stručne informacije važne za terapiju otrovanih ljudi i životinja. U
njima radi tim specijaliziranih toksikologa, farmaceuta, medicinskih sestara, veterinarskih
tehničara te doktora veterinarske medicine. Najpoznatiji svjetski centri za kontrolu otrovanja
životinja su ASPCA APCC, PPH te VPIS. Na njihovim web stranicama opisani su i slučajevi
iz prakse, pr. otrovanje psa gljivom (Amanita bisporigera), otrovanje psa vitaminom D
(Dovonex®) te mačke ljiljanom (Lilium). U Republici Hrvatskoj postoji Centar za kontrolu
otrovanja ljudi koji godišnje zaprimi 10 do 20 poziva vezanih uz otrovanje životinja, no
potrebno im je više vremena da obrade takav slučaj i pristupe veterinarskim izvorima i
referencama.
Abstract (english) Pets are exposed to various poisonous supstances or potentially toxic matter on a daily basis,
primarily rodenticydes, pesticides, human and veterinary medications and nutrients that can be
toxic for them if they ingest them or absorb them through the skin. When an owner suspects
that his pet is poisoned he should first seek out a veterinarian for help. If he can't see a
veterinarian, he can reach out to poison control center or find information regarding his pet's
poisoning in primary, secondary or tertiary literature. Primary literature is consisted of journals
and scientific papers that are published in these journals that provide the latest information and
research descriptions. Secondary literature is compiled out of primary sources and in veterinary
medicine the most commonly used are: MEDLINE, PubMed, Scopus and VJ Indeks. Tertiary
literature is consisted of textbooks, computer databases and internet sources. Textbooks contain
brief subject descriptions across different fields of study, while databases and internet sources
enable the user quick access to the latest information. Pros and cons of these sources are listed
in the paper. Poison control centers provide expert infomation important for treatment of people
and animals affected by poisonous substances. Their personnel consists of teams of specialized
toxicologists, pharmacists, nurses, veterinary technicians and doctors of veterinary medicine.
Leading global animal poison control centers are ASPCA, APCC, PPH and VPIS. Their official
websites contain detailed practical case descriptions e.g. dog fungal poisoning case (Amanita
bisporigera), dog vitamin D poisoning case (Dovonex®) and cat lily poisoning (Lilium). Most
similar to these centers in Croatia is Poison Control Centre for people that receives up to 10 to
20 call annually regarding animal poisoning, but they need more time to process such a case
and to access veterinary references and sources of information.
