Lecture 1 – An Evidence-based Approach To Balanced Anaesthesia In Small Animals

Wed, June 12 | Time – 19:30 AEST [SYDNEY]

Dr. Maria Bellei
DVM DVCS Dipl ACVA

After completing her Veterinary degree in Santa Catarina, Brazil, Maria started a combined internship and residency program in Veterinary Anesthesiology at the Ontario Veterinary College in Guelph, Canada in 2005. During her time in Canada, Maria’s training included clinical anaesthesia in horses, cattle, small animals and avian and exotic species, as well as research in equine analgesia and specialized coursework. She joined the American College of Veterinary Anaesthesia and Analgesia as a Board-certified specialist in 2009. Maria’s main interests include partial and total intravenous anaesthesia in small animals and equine practice, strategies to improve medication safety and use of epidural morphine for analgesia. Maria is extremely passionate about teaching, and strives to create interesting, engaging resources for veterinary nurses and veterinary students wanting to learn more about anaesthesia.

Topic Description

The evidence supporting a balanced or multi-modal approach to anaesthesia in veterinary and human medicine is solid. But when it comes to everyday cases, where do we start? This webinar will piece together the information available in the veterinary literature supporting strategies that contribute to a balanced approach. Protocols, dose rates and techniques for the use of epidural anaesthesia, local blocks, and common constant rate infusions will be discussed, as well as suggestions on case selection for individual strategies.

Topic Description

Blood lactate measurements in the emergency and critical patient can tell us a lot about our patients – from global perfusion status, to aiding in determining the success of our resuscitation efforts. But is there more? We’ll review the latest literature on the value of blood and body-cavity lactate measurements, and how they can assist us in decision-making for our patients.
