This presentation will educate clinicians on all aspects of hyperadrenocorticism (HAC) diagnosis and treatment. It will include HAC signalment, clinical signs, complications, screening tests, and the specific endocrine testing used to diagnose the condition. In addition, the use of trilostane for disease management and its monitoring and side effects will be discussed. Multiple case studies will also be presented to make the presentation as clinically relevant as possible.

Canine otitis externa is one of the most frequently encountered conditions in small animal veterinary practice. This presentation explores the causes of canine otitis externa including the predisposing, secondary, primary and perpetuating factors, the importance of otic cytology, and the essential treatment modalities to help ensure clinical resolution. The development of a long-term maintenance cleaning and allergy management plan will also be discussed.

Procedural sedation is often an underutilized tool for small practitioners. This educational program will demystify the concept of procedural sedation and its use in dogs. Detailed information on a novel sedative, a combination of the alpha-2-agonist, medetomidine, with the peripheral alpha-2 antagonist, vatinoxan will be provided. Real-world cases highlighting the use of this sedative will demonstrate how to leverage procedural sedation in your clinic.

Equine osteoarthritis (OA) is one of the most common causes of lameness and performance decline in horses, yet effective management requires more than short-term pain relief. This session will review the pathophysiology and clinical recognition of OA, highlight evidence supporting systemic chondroprotective therapies, and focus on the clinical use of the latest available therapy, pentosan polysulfate sodium (PPS). Participants will gain practical strategies for incorporating PPS into multimodal treatment plans, optimizing client communication, and building long-term value for both equine health and veterinary practice.

The presenter reviews canine regenerative therapy. Focus areas include basic principles of regenerative medicine, FDA regulations, and types of autologous blood products. The types of medical devices necessary for processing autologous blood products including centrifugation, filtration, and incubation are all discussed. Additionally a review of current literature on validation of different autologous products in canines and felines will be discussed. Finally there will be a review of the current literature on the uses of Platelet rich plasma in small animal medicine and an overview of how to perform joint injections for companion animals.

This webinar will provide a practical approach to using cytology for diagnosing cancer in dogs and cats in general practice. Attendees will learn how to improve sample collection, recognize key cytologic patterns of common tumors, and understand when cytology is sufficient versus when biopsy or referral is indicated. The session emphasizes real world applications to build confidence in integrating cytology into everyday diagnostic workups.

The program will briefly discuss how to monitor Fear Anxiety and Stress. The program will then go into the focus of FAS levels 0-2 and explain each in detail. Pre visit pharmaceuticals will be discussed in detail for each level of patient. Finally chemical restraint will be discussed including injectable formulations that can be used for quick outpatient procedures.

The program will briefly discuss how to monitor Fear Anxiety and Stress. The program will then go into the focus of FAS levels 3,4, and 5 and explain each in detail and what must happen when handling each. Pre visit pharmaceuticals will be discussed in detail for each level of FAS patient. More time will be spent on chemical restraint and when full anesthesia is warranted vs light sedation. Positives and negatives of each will be discussed and several drugs will be covered. Finally, safety and restraint for IM injections will be discussed.

Otitis externa in small animals is common, recurrent, uncomfortable for the pet and frustrating for both owner and veterinary team. Each individual has a different combination of Primary disease, Secondary infection, Perpetuating factors and Predisposing factors, allowing the veterinarian to create a personalized plan to approach their treatment through the PSPP system. Use of the PSPP system helps guide clinicians through topical otic selection for resolution of active disease and prevention of relapse. Cooperative care and communication techniques when implementing home care are critical to successful long term management.
