About this Lecture
So you’ve triaged a critical patient and transported them to the treatment area for immediate treatment. What happens next?
Ready, Set, Stabilise is an exciting presentation that explores the stabilisation of critical dogs and cats.
Every veterinary clinic encounters emergencies at some point. While the underlying causes may vary from patient to patient, the approach to stabilisation is often quite similar.
Join us as we explore the initial examination of critical patients, known as a primary survey, which systematically assesses the major body systems and identifies common abnormalities.
We will review the different stages of shock, focusing on the body’s compensatory mechanisms, responses, and the clinical signs typically observed in patients experiencing shock.
Monitoring critical patients during stabilisation is essential for their survival. Therefore, we will discuss the monitoring that is required, including the use of monitoring devices, understanding normal parameters, and methods for obtaining accurate measurements.
Fundamental treatments and therapies will also be covered, including oxygen supplementation, fluid therapy resuscitation, and commonly administered medications.
Participants will gain a deeper understanding of the stabilisation process and the vital role of veterinary nurses in managing critical patients alongside the veterinarian.
