VOI Extracapsular CrCL and MPL Chad Andrews, DVM, DACVS-SA; Don Hulse, DVM, DACVS, DECVS Dogs (typically small breeds) will often present with acute onset lameness secondary to complete cranial cruciate ligament rupture. Upon physical exam, the stifle is very unstable, and a Grade 2-3 patella luxation is often present as well. The patella luxation is aggravated by the presence of excess internal rotational instability due to the CrCl injury. To return the patient to normal function, the CrCl injury must be addressed (stabilized) as well as the patella luxation. The technique described in this laboratory allows the attending surgeon to stabilize the craniocaudal laxity with an isometric extracapsular procedure that allows stabilization of the patella luxation using standard technique. Workshop Objectives a. Study stifle extracapsular repair, treatment of meniscal tears and meniscal release and treatment of MPL. b. Update your knowledge on practical surgical techniques and procedures and become familiarized with the latest technology to utilize. c. Increase confidence levels when performing various soft tissue and orthopedic surgery procedures. d. Gain a better knowledge of the regional anatomy related to the surgical procedure. Online pre-learning to the course is available for free once you have registered for the interactive lab FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 27 8:00 AM - 12:00 PM ROOM 121 C Technician Catheter Lab: Urinary and Advanced Intravenous Kelly Foltz, CVT, LVT, RVT, VTS (ECC); Paula Plummer, LVT, VTS(ECC, SAIM, CP-fe); Sarah Perry, BS, LVT, NCert (TMedNsg) This will be a four (4) hour cadaver lab designed for participants to gain experience placing male and female urinary catheters and advanced intravenous catheter (jugular and femoral) placement. This lab will consist of lecture time to discuss indications, potential complications, supplies needed and other information to set the participant up for success in the hospital. Then the participant will have access to canine and feline cadavers to gain experience performing both procedures with experienced veterinary technicians. This lab is for anyone pursuing a veterinary technician specialty or wanting to advance your skills.
Fort Worth Zoo Hospital Tour Brittany Yanez, LVT; Whitney Johnson, DVM
Jay Griffin, DVM; Andra Voges, DVM, DACVR; Beth Boudreau, DVM, PhD, DACVIM (Neuro); Sydney Gibson, DVM, DACVR, DACVR-EDI; Lauren Russell, DVM, DACVR - General and Equine Diagnostic Imaging; Sarah Sampson, DVM, PhD, DACVS-LA, DACVSMR-EQ This live dog lab will have 6 tables for ultrasound instruction. Our goal is to have 1 instructor per table and groups of 4 participants at each table (24 DVM participants). Each participant will scan for 4.5 minutes before rotating. After all 4 participants have scanned at a table (i.e. every 18 minutes), groups will rotate to the next table. An example timeline for the morning session is in table 1 below. The afternoon session would be the same, it would just start at 1:30 pm. The topics for each table are listed below in table 2. Each table would need someone to monitor the dog, ultrasound gel, alcohol, an ultrasound scanner, and 5 stools. Dogs should be clipped in advance. The haircut over the abdomen should extend from about the 10th intercostal space caudally to the inguinal region and about 2/3 of the way up the side of the abdomen on the left and right. We will need at least male intact dog and 1 intact female dog for the morning session and the same for the afternoon session.
SWVS is featuring a 1.5 hour CE event at the Fort Worth Zoo. Zoo veterinary staff will provide lectures including Zoo animal medical behavior training and hematology given by Brittany Yanez, LVT and unique clinical considerations in zoo medicine given by Dr. Whitney Johnson. After the lectures, you will tour the 10,000 square foot hospital in groups. Following the lectures and the tour of the hospital, 1.5 hours is allowed for participants to visit the zoo. Refreshments served.
INTERACTIVE LABS THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 26 8:00 AM - 5:00 PM ROOM 121 C&D Veterinary CPR Certification/RECOVER Rescuer Basic and Advanced Life Support Justin Heinz, DVM, DACVECC; Michelle Hervey, BS, LVT, CFVP; Paula Plummer, LVT, VTS(ECC, SAIM, CP-fe); Kenichiro Yagi, MS, RVT, VTS (ECC), (SAIM) How do we best treat animals in cardiopulmonary arrest? An evidence-based veterinary CPR guideline published by the RECOVER Initiative in 2012 aimed at determining how to maximize the chances of patient survival led to the official veterinary CPR certification process approved by the American College of Veterinary Emergency and Critical Care. This course will equip participants with concepts and techniques in Basic Life Support (BLS) and Advanced Life Support (ALS) reinforced through scenario-based simulations. The certification process consists of an online course required and provided RECOVER followed by onsite training at the conference to complete the rescuer certification. As per RECOVER guidelines the online RECOVER BLS and ALS courses MUST be completed to attend the onsite training at the conference! Successful completion of this course grants participants certification as a RECOVER BLS Rescuer and a RECOVER ALS Rescuer. Human medical professionals certify in human CPR. Veterinary medical professionals should certify themselves in veterinary CPR! Please note the following: Once registered for the course through SWVS, RECOVER will provide instructions on how to complete the online course. Please bring proof of BLS and ALS online course completion to the conference.
