Effective wound management in the emergency clinic
(incl. tax)
Wound management is an integral part of veterinary care. With pets and wildlife presenting with wounds from different causes, understanding the initial part of wound assessment and management can set the wound and the patient up for success.
In this webinar, you will understand the different wound types and wound healing stages. You will learn step by step assessment checks to make when initially inspecting a wound. Dressing selections and differing reasons for delayed wound healing will also be covered, enabling you to feel more confident when handling wounds in future and making time efficient decisions within a fast paced emergency setting.
