Acquire the necessary skills to act as an expert in the area of Neurological, Behavioral and Orthopedic Emergencies in Small Animals, with the mastery of the latest techniques and advances in this intervention"

In emergency medicine there is a series of understandings, procedures and techniques which are common in the majority of cases, independent of the specialty or specialties involved in each case.  

The neurological examination of patients arriving at the emergency department should be performed diligently and thoroughly, allowing the origin of the injury to be located and the severity and prognosis of the patient to be assessed. Many clinicians are unfamiliar with the examination of the patient with a neurologic condition, which is why a topic is devoted to the medical examination and testing of these patients. 

As for emergencies in the area of behavioral medicine, there are few that require immediate attention, but those that have been included in this module may be highly incapacitating to the animal or may be serious. 

There are not many urgent orthopedic processes that require immediate attention, but it is important to manage pain in these patients and to immobilize them or the fracture sites until their evaluation and treatment by the orthopedic and traumatology service. 

Thus, this program will deal with the care of patients with neurological, behavioral, traumatological or orthopedic emergencies: arrival at the emergency department, initial stabilization, as well as anamnesis, examination, complementary tests and medical treatment.
