This course is for anyone who wishes to develop their ability and confidence in out-of-hours surgical procedures, from early graduates through to more experienced vets who have less surgical support in practice. This course will also benefit those who wish to update their approach to perioperative stabilisation and surgical practice.

This two-day course will provide a sensible, pragmatic and practical approach to the more common surgical emergencies seen in general and OOH practice. Day 1 is highly practical to facilitate enough time for several intrabdominal surgical procedures. Day 2 will reflect on the perioperative presentation and management of haemoabdomen and gastric dilation volvulus followed by upper airway obstructive conditions and there will be opportunity to place a tracheostomy tube placement, chest drains and jugular lines.

  • Haemoabdomen
