Beschreibung

Most of us have a reasonable understanding of how to deal with diabetes mellitus and canine hyperadrenocorticism. It can however be challenging to build up the confidence to deal with the less common endocrinopathies. How do a reliably diagnose feline hyperaldosteronism? Should I be testing for dwarfism? How do I deal differently with feline Cushing’s? This webinar touches upon the less common suspects and therefore aims to deepen the knowledge of attendees in the field of small animal endocrinology. When do you run an aldosterone in that cat with renal failure and hypertension? Should you be running an IGF-1 in every dog that is not growing as expected? What is really the best diagnostic test for hyperadrenocorticism in the cat? Is it different from what we do in the dog? How common is acromegaly and when do I screen for it? These and other issues will be discusses and interaction is encouraged.

Ticks and Toads: Treating the Sickest
Tick and toad patients are the bread and butter of emergency practice in South-East QLD. They can seem routine because most do well with treatment straight from a clinical protocol. The worst 5% are the opposite. These patients epitomise the term ‘critical’. They present multiple challenges to the emergency vet, and treatment needs to be individually tailored. In this webinar I’ll talk about some of my sickest patients, how we managed them, where I think we could have done better, and what I’m planning next time. Absolutely critical toad patients make up about 1% of the presentations, and in tick paralysis it’s about 10%. There’s just not enough cases for clinical studies to be valuable, so collaboration is the first step in improving current standards of treatment. I hope this webinar is valuable for all of us.

Anatomy and physiology of the nervous system- how to understand the basics of neurolocalisation (for nurses)
Neuroanatomy and neurophysiology may repel at first. Most veterinary students and some veterinary practitioners are indeed uncomfortable with their neurology knowledge. This definitely has to do with the complexity of the nervous system anatomy and the immense diversity of structures and interactions that are involved in its functions. It is indeed a complex machinery that is in charge of not less than vision, smell, audition, balance, generating and adjusting gaits and postures, basic and more complex behaviours and things as trivial as urination or defecation. The brain is in fact commanding pretty much every function in the animal’s body. In fact most of the pathways and apparently complicated structures of the nervous systems can be grouped and understood based on their common functions. This functional knowledge of the nervous system is utterly interesting and leads to the simple understanding of lesion localisation within the nervous system. This webinar presents aspects of the functional neuroanatomy and physiology of the nervous system of dogs and cats and illustrate this information throughout clinical cases.

Physiology of the respiratory system in daily clinical life (for nurses)
This webinar will help to obtain a broad knowledge about the anatomy and functional anatomy of the upper and lower respiratory tract in order to better understand the complex physiology of ventilation. What does the animal breathe, why does it breathe, how much does it have to breathe, what happens if it stops breathing?
