Description

The most complete and updated program in Hospital Care of Equine Patients with Neurological and Musculoskeletal Pathologies and Surgical Patients on the online educational market"

##IMAGE##

This postgraduate diploma lays the foundations for a specialization in Equine Hospital Medicine. It defines the logistics and clinical strategy required in a hospital for horses. It addresses various topics, extremely necessary in order to acquire a global idea of how an equine hospital works and to consider the hospitalization of any patient regardless of their main pathology.

It describes the layout of the different facilities and establishes the necessary guidelines for the cleaning and disinfection of different areas in relation to their degree of contamination by the patients treated in each one. Develop specialized knowledge on advanced pharmacology for hospitalized patients. This program establishes the ideal pharmacological guidelines, antibiotherapy and multimodal analgesia applicable to each patient depending on their severity, which differs greatly from the approach used in field clinics.

Due to the severity of the clinical symptoms presented by most hospitalized patients, it is necessary to establish specific guidelines for fluid therapy and nutrition according to the stabilization requirements and metabolic needs of each patient.

Finally, in the first section of the program, the interpretation of blood count, serum biochemistry and blood gas analysis is discussed as it is very important to establish the severity of hospitalized patients. These diagnostic methods will also be key to monitoring the patients during the hospitalization period. 

It is very common that during the hospitalization of equine patients, complications appear in the evolution of the pathological process being treated, so it is essential to identify these complications quickly and implement appropriate treatments for a satisfactory outcome.

The doctor's ability to respond in critical situations during the hospitalization of equine patients will be essential for the prognosis of the pathological process and even crucial for survival, since when these complications are potentially fatal, such as a laryngeal collapse or post-castration eventration, the doctor's actions will be very important.
