Description

Animals presenting with renal compromise can display a variety of different clinical signs. A full clinical history can be very enlightening, but you need to ask the right questions. Diagnostics such as urine sampling and blood tests will help the veterinary surgeon towards a diagnosis. As Veterinary nurses you do need to understand the diagnosis process in order to help the client with understanding and why we run certain tests. Sediment analysis of urine samples can prove to be very useful in determining renal function. 
The webinar will concentrate on the diagnostics involved in these cases such as urinalysis, the importance of sediment examination, blood tests and blood pressure monitoring. 

The Australian Veterinary Nurse and Technician (AVNAT) Regulatory Council has allocated (1) AVNAT CPD point to this continuing education activity.
