Endoparasites: From 101 to the clinical frontline

Endoparasites: From 101 to the clinical frontline
Endoparasites: From 101 to the clinical frontline

This webinar aims to rapidly get your scientific knowledge up to speed by refreshing your understanding of the key helminth and protozoal infections of cats and dogs that you come into regular contact with through patents presented at clinics. The focus will then shift to parasite management and control, considering available diagnostics and treatment options, together with best husbandry practices that can be utilised by the pet owner in consultation with the veterinarian. The significance of parasite infections for the individual pet as well as other cats and dogs within their community will be critiqued, as will the potential for human infection through known zoonoses.

What is new in tick paralysis 2017

The last 12 months have seen refinements in the management of tick paralysis, and release of new options for tick prevention for pets. I will take the audience through the Guide to Diagnosis, Management, Treatment and Prevention of Tick Paralysis which was authored by the Australian Paralysis Tick Advisory Panel in 2016. This document was a collaborative effort of veterinarians in general and specialist practice, academia and industry which provides a consensus for current treatment of dogs and cats with tick paralysis. I have also been involved in a large- scale study of tick paralysis management of cats, and have already changed some of the ways I approach these patients. I will share some of the insights with the audience, as well as revising the big picture of what we are trying to achieve in tick paralysis management.
