Total intravenous anaesthesia (TIVA) involves the maintenance of general anaesthesia using only injectable anaesthetic drugs, rather than the more traditional practice of using inhalant agents. In some situations, such as work in remote areas, this technique is of a practical advantage. In other cases, for example, severe neurological disease or during some respiratory procedures, TIVA is a safer option compared to inhalational anaesthesia...

We give blood products on an increasingly frequency in veterinary medicine, but how much do we really know about the product we are giving, the indications for each product and possible sequelae to this administration of foreign products?

Die Borna´sche Krankheit ist eine oftmals tödliche verlaufende neurologische Erkrankung, die – neben anderen Haussäugetieren und dem Menschen – vor allem Equiden betrifft. Obwohl sie in Deutschland bereits seit dem 19. Jahrhundert bekannt ist, herrscht bei Haltern und Tierärzten teils noch immer sehr viel Unsicherheit vor.

Gerade in der derzeitigen Pandemie wird einem wieder bewusst, dass Impfstoffe eine sehr gute Möglichkeit sind, um den Ausbruch von Krankheiten zu verhindern. Doch wie entsteht ein Impfstoff überhaupt? Was muss bei der Entwicklung alles bedacht werden und woran kann der Weg bis zur Zulassung scheitern? Gibt es Besonderheiten für Pferdeimpfstoffe? Diese und weitere Fragen werden während des Vortrages von Philip Bridger anschaulich beantwortet.

Tamacan - Cannabidiol aus kontrolliert biologischem Anbau

Wirkungsweise von Cannabinoiden und deren Anwendungen bei Hunden.

Emergency and critical care of rabbits is a new concept and an exciting challenge. At presentation, prey species like rabbits may disguise obvious clinical signs making triage more complicated. However most emergency and critical care techniques used in other companion animals can be applied, and familiarity with common rabbit presentations can improve the management of these pets. Ileus, dyspnoea and seizure are examples of possible conditions that, with the right approach, can be treated successfully. Anorexia is also a very common emergency that should be treated within 24-48 hours from presentation. However, anorexia is a clinical sign and not a disease, and the cause should be thoroughly investigated and treated. This webinar will describe the emergency equipment advised for the rabbit patient and some of the most common emergency presentations and their treatments.

Evaluation of CSF is an important diagnostic tool for assessment of patients displaying neurological abnormalities. Basic cytological evaluation of CSF includes determination of the total and differential leukocyte counts and protein concentration.
