Description

Not all wounds are created equal. Management and closure of wounds whether traumatic or surgically created (following mass removal for example) relies on a sound understanding of principles of wound healing and relevant patient and wound characteristics that can influence outcome. This webinar summarises and highlights key aspects of wound management and reconstructive surgery in dogs and cats with attention to relevant background principles of wound healing as well as clinical tips and tricks for practice. Areas to be covered include an overview of wound healing and factors affecting healing, methods of primary wound closure, open wound management and reconstructive methods including tension relieving techniques, skin flaps and skin grafts.
