Common Neurological Emergencies - A Case Based Presentation

A case-based video tour looking at some of the most common neurological emergencies you might encounter in practice and how best to deal with them.
During this webinar, we will neuroanatomically localise, create a list of differential diagnoses, and discuss diagnostic and treatment options. We will discuss what can be done if referral isn’t an option and what to expect prognostically.

• Practice your neurological exam and ability to localise with case videos
• Learn to assess and manage neurological emergencies in general practice.
• Create succinct and accurate neurological differential diagnoses
• Learn about different diagnostic and treatment options in both the first opinion and referral hospital setting
• Discover about a range of neurological emergencies and the prognosis expected for each

The acute abdomen - When to cut?

Acute abdomen is a collective term for a number of conditions that are presented with clinical signs of mild to marked abdominal discomfort, abdominal distension, generalised gastrointestinal signs and/or shock. Some of these may necessitate an immediate surgical correction, however, in others one is better off with an appropriate conservative treatment or postponed surgical intervention. Generally, one or more organs or systems can be involved in the etiology of acute abdomen and the list of differentials is rather long. Due to plethora of possible causes management of cases with acute abdomen is often very challenging. Proper history, physical examination, collection of free abdominal fluid, ultrasonography and radiology are minimal diagnostic setup for such cases. This webinar should give you an insight into the decision-making process in acute abdomen cases from the perspective of a veterinary surgeon.
