The objective for this postgraduate diploma in Surgical Techniques in Avian Patient is to provide a comprehensive resource for avian surgery in general. It is especially valuable for veterinary students, veterinary technicians and clinical veterinarians, as well as biologists, wildlife center directors and researchers. 

Monitoring is essential for patient immobilization and anesthesia and a fundamental process in surgical interventions. The objectives are to detect physiological changes in time to correct irreversible injuries, to ensure adequate anesthetic depth and to evaluate the effectiveness of supportive care. 

Moreover, animal pain and suffering are clinically important conditions that adversely affect an animal's quality of life, so extensive knowledge in avian analgesia is also necessary. 

This program provides a wide range of surgical options for the most common conditions in avian patients. However, orthopedic surgery can never be performed at the desired level without prior knowledge in avian anesthesia, radiology and ophthalmology. 

Thus, this academic program becomes a useful and essential tool for clinical veterinarians specializing in avian surgery, practitioners and residents in training, as well as individuals dealing with comparative species, such as zoo medicine and interspecies surgery. 

In short, this training provides students with specific tools and skills to successfully develop their professional activity in the wide field of avian medicine and surgery. It addresses key competencies such as knowledge of the reality and daily practice of the veterinary professional, and develops responsibility in the monitoring and supervision of their work, as well as communication skills within the essential teamwork. 

As it is an online program, students will not be bound by fixed schedules or the need to commute to another location, but rather, they can access the content at any time of the day, balancing their professional or personal life with their academic life.
