Trøndelag / Trondheim news: fecal transplantation tested

At the Evidensia Trondheim Dyresykehus veterinary hospital, veterinarian Monica Jørgensen has been testing fecal transplantation for a year and a half. The principle: take feces from a healthy dog and introduce them into the rectum of a sick animal, in order to stop vomiting and diarrhea (NRK Trøndelag / Trondheim).

“There have been dogs that we talked about euthanizing because they were so ill, and that today live a good life. We also see dogs that had been suffering for several years getting better,” says Monica Jørgensen. According to her, it is easy to trivialize a “little stomach ache” when the problem is sometimes more serious. Almost every day, desperate owners come to the clinic.

The method is being tested on dogs as well as cats; it is among the Trøndelag / Trondheim news items covered in most detail by NRK’s regional editorial team for this period.
