Laser Therapy Master Class: Inflammation and Beyond

In this session: Laser therapy has been used in medicine for a long time, yet in the last decade there has been an explosion of pertinent research. Laurie McCauley, DVM, DACVSMR, CCRT, CVA, CVC, addresses the physiologic effects laser has on the body and move on to look at how and when to use laser therapy, from treating cancer, osteoarthritis, asthma, and so much more. From traumatic brain injuries to a tooth abscess, she will share insight on more ways to utilize your laser with solid research thrown in for fun.

Diagnosis and Management of CKD in Dogs and Cats

Allison Kendall, DVM, MS, DACVIM, discusses markers for detecting CKD early in dogs and cats, including how to stage and substage CKD according to IRIS guidelines. She will also discuss treatment and management of both CKD and its comorbidities with the goal of preventing progression and improving patient quality of life.

Recent Advancements in Oncology

In this session: Craig Clifford, DVM, MS, DACVIM (Oncology), describes the latest in the field of oncology, including a chemotherapy sensitivity assay from Imprimed to help guide drug decisions, a new conditionally approved drug for canine lymphoma called Laverdia CA-1, and the use of the oncoK9 liquid biopsy test from PetDx.

PsyMed: The Science Linking Psychological Stress and Medical Symptoms

It is well-known certain behavioral signs can identify chronic psychological stress that eventually may affect medical symptoms. This field is known as “PsyMed.” This lecture shows how identifying these behaviors is more effective than measuring cortisol. Rolan Tripp, DVM, CABC, takes a deep dive into stress-induced cell adhesion molecule disruption and introduces the PsyMed hypothesis as the connection between pet behavioral health and enjoyable longevity.

Intraoperative Fluid Therapy and the Hypotension Algorithm

Michelle Albino, LVT, VTS (Anesthesia/Analgesia), reviews the basics of intraoperative fluid therapy for general anesthesia and how to determine arterial blood pressure and cardiac output in anesthetized patients. Attendees will familiarize themselves with more novel fluid therapy recommendations and how they apply to a balance anesthesia approach utilizing an algorithm to treat intraoperative hypotension.
