Abstract

V diplomskem delu predstavljamo vplive nekaterih diet na frekvenco in pogostost epileptičnih napadov pri psih. Ketogena dieta velja za terapijo, ki jo uporabljajo za farmakorezistentno epilepsijo pri ljudeh, vendar je njena učinkovitost pri psih manj raziskana in prisotnih je tudi več stranskih učinkov. V eni izmed študij so primerjali ketogeno dieto z enostavno klasično dieto in ugotovili, da ni statistično pomembnih razlik v pogostosti napadov, vendar so imeli v kontrolni skupini nezadostno število psov za konkretne rezultate, zato veterinarji zaradi stranskih učinkov in pomankanja znanja odsvetujejo ketogeno dieto pri psih z epileptičnimi napadi. V drugi študiji so dobili pozitivne rezultate pri dodajanju srednjeverižnih trigliceridov v krmo za pse. Napadi so se zmanjšali ali pa celo za neko obdobje prenehali. Dodatek omega-3 maščobnih kislin v krmo prav tako ni pokazal statistično pomembnega zmanjšanja napadov. Opisana sta tudi dva primera, ko so pse uspešno zdravili s veterinarsko predpisano dieto, ki je privedla do opaznega napredka pri nadzoru nad napadi.. Prva dieta je vsebovala visoko vsebnost maščob v primerjavi z beljakovinami in ogljikovimi hidrati, v drugi dieti pa so v krmi odstranili vse dodatne ogljikove hidrate. To kaže na povezavo med različnimi prehranskimi pristopi in obvladovanjem epileptičnih napadov

Secondary title:	Specifics features of diet of dogs with epilepsy
Secondary abstract:	The B.Sc. Thesis examines the effects of different diet on the frequency and occurrence of epileptic seizures in dogs. The ketogenic diets, which are known as a treatment for pharmacoresistant epilepsy in humans, have been less studied in dogs and associated with more side effects. One study compared the ketogenic diet with a simple classical diet and found no statistically significant difference in seizure frequency. However, there were too few dogs in the control group to obtain meaningful results, and veterinarians generally advise against the ketogenic diet for dogs with epilepsy due to its side effects, but also due to the lack of knowledge. Other studies have shown that adding medium-chain triglycerides to dog diets has led to positive results. Seizures decreased or even stopped for a certain period of time. The addition of omega-3 fatty acids to the diet did not lead to a statistically significant reduction in seizures. In the thesis two cases of dogs that were successfully treated with a diet prescribed by veterinarians were described and in which there was a significant improvement in seizure control. The first diet was high in fat compared to protein and carbohydrates, while the second diet removed all extra carbohydrates from the diet. This suggests a link between dietary approaches and the treatment of epileptic seizures.
