Otitis Externa - Management Strategies for Long-Term Resolutions

(incl. tax)
Description

Otitis externa is one of the most commonly encountered presentations in clinical practice. It can also be one of the most frustrating, with large numbers of patients developing recurrent or chronic disease. Multiple client surveys have highlighted the fact that frustration with management of chronic otitis is one of the most common reasons for clients switching veterinary practices.
In this webinar we’ll look at how otitis develops in our patients, and gain an understanding of the underlying factors involved. Understanding the pathogenesis of otitis is the most important aspect of successful long-term management of the disease. Armed with this information, we’ll go on to look at specific treatments and preventative measures and the pros and cons of various approaches. We’ll also spend some time discussing the treatment of multi-resistant Pseudomonas otitis, a notoriously difficult infection to get on top of.
Finally, we’ll discuss the various surgical options that may be used in the management of otitis, bearing in mind that in all but a few cases, successful medical management is always our preferred option.

Dermatology Diagnostics
Dermatology Diagnostics for Veterinary Nurses and Technicians Do you ever wonder why vets do what they do when dealing with skin cases? Does it sometimes feel like we’re just stabbing in the dark hoping for an answer? Do you find that clients get frustrated with lack of progress? Do they bring their frustrations to you, but you don’t always know what to say? You are not alone! Dermatology and ear cases are the most common health problems presented to small animal practices, and they are frequently cited as the most common reasons that clients change veterinary practices. Dermatology cases can appear to be frustrating and complex, but in fact there are some very logical processes that need to be followed. In this webinar we’ll cover the steps that need to be taken to establish a diagnosis for the most common dermatology presentations. If you understand these steps, then you are equipped to effectively communicate these processes to your clients. We’ll also cover some of the specific diagnostic tests undertaken in the pursuit of a diagnosis in veterinary dermatology, and how nurses and technicians can play a pivotal role in this process.

Recognising lesions in dermatology - the key to accurate diagnosis
Some people say that everything in dermatology looks the same; just hair loss and red or black skin. This is far from the case. If you can separate primary lesions from secondary changes you are well on your way to formulate a good diagnostic and treatment plan for your patients. The diagnosis and treatment of skin disease in animals is protocol based and it's foundation is the presentling primary lesion picture. It is vital for accurate histopathological diagnosis that the pathologist is given an accurate description of the lesions. In addition, when requesting advice from a veterinary dermatologist, the key is to be able to describe in mutually understandable terms what is happening. In this presentation, Dr's Rob Hilton and Judith Nimmo will co-present the common primary and secondary lesions seen in our small animal patients and discuss their clinical and histological appearance and some of the more common diseases associated with the lesions
