Good morning!
My name is Zoe Powell-Davies and I am currently in my fourth year of studying Veterinary Medicine at the University of Edinburgh. As part of my course, I am carrying out a research project based on the diagnosis of Megacolon in pet rabbits, which shall run across my fourth and fifth year of university. I aim to collect data around individual cases to produce a database of common features to aid in the understanding of this disease and diagnosis of future cases.Having had a pet rabbit diagnosed with this illness myself, this topic is something that I have a lot of interest in.
I am advertising the participation of this short, voluntary, anonymous survey to anybody in the UK over the age of 16 who has had experience with megacolon in one of their own rabbits. By following the link below, you will be taken to an information sheet which provides much more detail about the aim of the study, the content of the questionnaire, the use of the data and your rights in terms of participation. Clicking on this link does not mean you then have to participate – you can simply close the webpage at any point to withdraw from the study, and no data shall be collected.
I fully appreciate that megacolon may be a sensitive topic for some individuals, and therefore nobody should feel an obligation to participate – this questionnaire is entirely voluntary. If you have any concerns regarding this subject, I would suggest speaking to your vet.
Could I please ask that no personal data or data that may link you to the study is commented on this thread, as this could damage the anonymity of the study.
If you do have any queries, please email me at s1705613@ed.ac.uk and I will be happy to provide more information.
Thank you all in advance! Any participation is hugely appreciated, and I hope that this study will be a useful tool in the future understanding of megacolon in domestic rabbits. The project will run until March 2022, but I hope to be able to post a brief summary of my findings on completion for those of you interested.
