Equine specialist Dr. James Crabtree presents a webinar on treating bacterial endometritis using antimicrobials. He explores pathophysiology, prescribing strategies, and compares local versus systemic antibiotic therapy, considering safety and effectiveness. Crabtree’s expertise stems from extensive practice in the UK and abroad, and his role at Equine Reproductive Services.
In this practical and informative session, recorded at the 2023 WEVA Congress, James Crabtree shares expert insights on managing dystocia cases in the field. With approximately 4–10% of equine deliveries experiencing complications, prompt assessment and action are critical to improving outcomes for both mare and foal.
The webinar covers the causes of dystocia, the importance of client communication, how to carry out an effective initial assessment, and the decision-making process for next steps. Whether intervention is required or not, this session provides essential knowledge for equine practitioners facing obstetric emergencies.
Join James Crabtree as he shares practical, field-based approaches to recognising and managing equine dystocia and postpartum complications. Recorded at WEVA Congress 2023, this session explores how to assess what’s normal and what’s not in the foaling mare, and how to effectively respond to emergencies such as periparturient haemorrhage, metritis, uterine lacerations, prolapses, and more.
Whether you’re new to equine obstetrics or refining your emergency protocols, this webinar offers valuable, experience-led guidance.

Antibiotic resistance has, until recently, been viewed more as a political issue than a clinical concern for equine practitioners. However, it is now emerging as a real clinical challenge, with wound infections caused by MRSA and MRSP becoming increasingly common.
