Have you ever had a trauma patient arrive, and all you can think of is ‘where do I start?’
This course is designed for emergency veterinarians as well as general practitioners around how to deal with traumatic emergencies.
There are many layers of managing trauma patients, from the initial triage and stabilisation through to advanced surgery; monitoring critical patients; and dealing with associated complications. This will be an intensive course where you will develop a broad range of skills and knowledge that you can also apply to many of your other patients as well. We promise it will be challenging but rewarding!
Past Participant:
Really interesting, relevant material.
Jenny Hibble 2021
I wanted to brush up on trauma management in a practical way and this was great. The notes were excellent as was the supporting material. I did have some trouble with one of the quizzes at first, but this was rectified. Other than that, no issues. The discussion panel was very useful too.
I am an older graduate and it was great to update my knowledge on trauma management and feel more confident about these types of emergencies. The protocols and provision of underlying theory were especially useful.
