Two protocols IACUC approved protocols under the same Principal Investigator require multiple caesarian sections in female baboons. According to both protocols, A005 and B001, multiple experimental protocols/surgeries will be carried out on each baboon over a 3-year period. Female baboons under these protocols would receive a maximum of 4 survival caesarian sections during the 3-year duration of the protocol. The protocols indicate animals will be undergoing multiple major surgeries to reduce animal numbers but did not provide a scientific justification nor have approval from the Administrator. At the time of inspection, the facility has not sought or received approval from the Administrator for any of the animals that have undergone multiple major operative procedures on these protocols. No animal will be used in more than one major operative procedure from which it is allowed to recover, unless justified for scientific reasons in writing by the principal investigator, require veterinary care and treatment, and/or in special circumstances as determined by the Administrator on individual basis.
