Feline Sedation And A Spotlight On Urinary Tract Trauma
Manage episode 383557996 series 3528419
This month Dr. Sam Taylor is in conversation with Dr Matt Gurney about feline sedation and the use of low dose ketamine. We're also featuring our monthly JFMS clinical spotlight interview in which Head Of ISFM, Nathalie Dowgray, discusses feline urinary tract trauma with Dr Zoë Halfacree.
Recording during ISFM’s Rhodes Congress, Dr Sam Taylor is joined by specialist in anaesthesia and analgesia Dr Matt Gurney. He talks about his early experiences using subcutaneous low dose ketamine, how it can help our patients and the different options they have for sedation.
Nathalie then sits down with Dr Zoë Halfacree to discuss her JFMS clinical spotlight article Urinary Tract Trauma in Cats: Stabilisation, Diagnosis and Management and Zoë shares advice on how we can reduce the risk of iatrogenic ureteral trauma when we're catheterizing cats.
