About the course

Run in associated with the AVA this equine focussed day looks at pain recognition and management, anaesthetic problems produced by surgical colic and foal anaesthesia.

We are also looking specifically at mortality-risk factors and how to reduce risks and improve outcomes. In the afternoon there will be practical case discussion looking at recovery techniques and clinical decision-making for arterial blood gas results.

By the end of the course you will...
1. Have increased confidence in interpreting arterial blood gases and in planning therapeutic actions
2. Be able to recognise subtle pain signs and make a suitable, multimodal, tailored plan for managing them
3. Have the ability to formulate a plan for foal or colic anaesthesia
4. Be able to decide which is the best recovery method for different cases at your hospital or clinic
