Approach to the Acute Abdomen

 

Presented by,
John Anastasio, DVM, DACVECC

6:00pm

Acute abdomen refers to the acute onset of abdominal pain. Rapid diagnosis, hemodynamic stabilization, and treatment of the underlying etiology can lead to improved patient outcomes. We will examine common reasons for acute abdomen and diagnostic tools to  differentiate etiologies in an efficient manner. We will then review a variety of cases that highlight a goal-directed approach to treatment.

TOO MUCH OF A GOOD THING: ADRENAL HORMONE EXCESS (CUSHING’S AND BEYOND)

 

Presented by,
Justin Guinan, DVM, DACVIM (SAIM)
Tuesday April 24th, 2018
6:00pm

This discussion covers some of the more common adrenal hormone excesses, focusing primarily on hyperadrenocorticism (Cushing’s syndrome) in dogs. We will analyze this common endocrine disorder in terms of pathophysiology, diagnostic options, and treatment – all of which can be frustrating to determine for a patient. Also to be discussed is the controversial phenomenon of sex hormone excess (so called atypical Cushing’s syndrome) in dogs and hyperaldosteronism (Conn’s syndrome) in cats. Case discussions and personal preferences in terms of management will be reviewed.

Upcoming Continuing Education Event



A Review of the Down Animal and When to Refer


Presented by,
Christine Senneca, DVM, DACVIM (Neurology)
Wednesday, February 28, 2018
7:00pm

Veterinarians are often presented with patients that are non-ambulatory, and these cases have either an acute or chronic onset of signs. In this lecture we will review the neurologic examination and neuro-localization for animals with spinal and neuromuscular disease, the most common differentials, and a few rather unusual causes of signs. Furthermore, we will discuss some important conditions that frequently mimic neurologic dysfunction and go through the recommended diagnostic steps, treatment options, and associated prognoses, including what can easily be performed at a primary care facility.
