Through text, photos, and videos, Susan A. Arnold, DVM, DACVIM (Neurology), aids the general practitioner in determining if a patient is experiencing an orthopedic or a neurologic cause of dysfunction. Specifically, there are notable orthopedic conditions that may be considered “neurologic imposters.” However, these orthopedic conditions lack key deficits consistent with neurologic dysfunction. These “neurologic imposters” are addressed below to aid the clinician in the evaluation of patients that are presented for gait dysfunction.
Benefits of cloud-based monitoring storage extend beyond surgical procedures to long-term quality of care. How a patient’s data is recorded has far-reaching implications for the patient’s individual health history and safety – along with influence on workload and clinic operations, data security, and even veterinarian protection from liabilities.
