This informative webinar offers crucial insights into managing one of the most critical moments in equine care—foaling. John Spencer, an experienced equine vet from Fyrnwy Equine Hospital, guides attendees through the stages of normal foaling, identifying early warning signs of complications, and making timely decisions on when to refer a mare for veterinary intervention. With a focus on maximising foal and mare survival, this session is essential for breeders, owners, and equine professionals seeking to improve outcomes during this high-stakes period.
This talk focuses on assisting clinicians in the everyday practice on the detection and diagnosis of cardiac disease in our companion animals. From the moment they present on your hospital’s doorstep, we will discuss tips and tricks on acquiring a thorough history, performing a complete cardiothoracic physical exam, classifying murmurs and heart sounds, pros/cons of various diagnostics testing etc. Participants should finish the webinar feeling more confident in tackling the next patient that presents with suspected heart disease.
Dr. Caruso will cover:
Recognising the signs of KCS – From subtle changes to severe cases.
Diagnostic tools and techniques – Schirmer tear tests, fluorescein staining, & beyond.
Treatment strategies – Medical and surgical options for effective management.
Case studies and practical tips – Real-world insights to enhance clinical outcomes.
Systemic hypertension is estimated to affect at least 20% of older cats and is especially common in combination with illnesses such as chronic kidney disease. Diagnosis is not always straightforward; distinguishing between situational and genuine hypertension can be challenging.
This webinar will discuss commonly used psychopharmaceuticals as well as those we should probably be avoiding and backed up with real case scenarios.
Diagnosis and management of feline heart disease is a challenging element of cardiology. How important is a heart murmur, when should we worry about an arrhythmia, and is there anything to slow the progression of feline heart disease?
This live interactive presentation will update practitioners on how to approach feline heart disease, diving into these questions as well as taking a deeper look at a treatment plan for feline heart disease and how to monitor cats with congestive heart failure.

[Webinar] Feline infectious peritonitis is now a readily treatable disease. In this exciting era of feline medicine, let us learn from past mistakes and do our bit to promote responsible antimicrobial stewardship. Antivirals are often overlooked when we discuss antimicrobial resistance, with most of the focus on antibiotic use. In this webinar, Dr Coggins will review what we have learned from the COVID-19 pandemic and discuss the current recommendations for antiviral use in the context of FIP treatment.
