Chronic Osteoarthritis Management – A whole new opportunity for vet nursing
Osteoarthritis is a very common debilitating problem in our pet population and is often not managed as well as it could be. Dogs deserve a better deal with more attention paid to reducing chronic pain and enabling improved mobility and a better quality of life. We know that long term assessment and management are the best ways of achieving this but this does not fit into the normal schedule of the standard practice. As we learn more about OA we realise that there are exciting possibilities for change using global or multimodal management techniques. This course will explore how nurses can make a difference by learning new skills and using them in special OA clinics to provide better and lasting care for affected pets.
Topics to be covered include:
New facts about OA that change management options
How chronic pain differs from acute pain; and needs a different approach
How to assess a dog with OA
Looking at treatments that work well and some that do not work so well
Nursing clinics as OA clinics – assessments, multimodal management and recording outcomes
