Hypocalcemic effect of aminoglycoside antibiotics in the dairy cow.

The effect of the parenteral administration of aminoglycoside antibiotics on the blood calcium concentration in dairy cows was investigated. Gentamicin was tested in vitro in blood drawn from cows, dihydrostreptomycin was tested in nonlactating cows and neomycin was tested in postpartum cows. The total and bound calcium fractions were significantly reduced by all three antibiotics. No change occurred in the unbound calcium fractions. Caution is advised in the use of these drugs in postpartum cows, especially those with a history of milk fever.

Who is the chaplain anyway? Philosophy and integration of hospice chaplaincy.

Hospice chaplaincy is a rather innocuous term describing a combination of duties and skills. Literature has been slow in coming and clearly defining this growing and unique role. This article looks both through the eye of the terminally ill patient and of the chaplain for further clarification of the method, philosophy, and definition of hospice chaplaincy. Through the use of brief metaphors, the author ascribes new meaning to common place terms, e.g., telephone operator, guide and teacher, and places them in context of the aforementioned perspectives. Highlighted are specific scenarios, questions, and emotional issues common to the psychosocial and psychospiritual relationship of patient and chaplain.
