Sepsis is a multifactorial syndrome with serious consequences for survival and costs of treatment in dogs. In this context gastroenteritis is an important representative of this inflammatory syndrome infectious association in the veterinary emergencies area. This single-center, prospective cohort study presented as a fundamental objective to identify the prognostic variables associated with survival in the short and medium term of 56 dogs with gastroenteritis treated in emergency and critical care hospital. Physiological and laboratory datas were collected on admission of emergency patients ( T0 ) and 24 hours later ( T24 ). Thus, the relationship between these parameters and the survival or mortality in 24 hours, and at 7, 30 and 60 days after admission were found. With the results, decision trees used in the stratification, prediction and identification of all possible interactions were created. The severity of the clinical, laboratory findings and historical background predicts mortality in canine patients with gastroenteritis , and patients diagnosed with parvovirus or hemorrhagic gastroenteritis, ranked in severe sepsis or septic shock, have higher mortality both at 24 hours as at 7, 30 and 60 days after treatment. The fall of potential oxygen transport, the oncotic potential and metabolic changes at the cellular level were determining the prognosis of patients, respectively represented by the high prognostic power of variations within 24 hours of hematocrit, total protein and lactate as well as presence of severe peripheral vasoconstriction 24 hours after initiation of treatment, as demonstrated by scores greater vasoconstriction. Thus, it is intended with this study, getting familiar to veterinarians to predict survival in dogs with gastroenteritis based on simple parameters, low cost and easy implementation
