Visitors to Jurox (UK) Limited’s stand (stand R58) at the London Vet Show (LVS) will be invited to talk for one minute about its leading anaesthetic, Alfaxan, in a Vox Pop style ‘Alfaxan Challenge’.
Alfaxan users will be given the opportunity to talk about the benefits of Alfaxan in a special inflatable ‘Alfaxan Challenge’ booth , while non-users can talk through ‘how they would like to improve their anesthesia’. They will be encouraged to speak for one minute ‘without hesitation, deviation or repetition’, with every participant winning either an Alfaxan fob watch or an Alfaxan utility belt. The best ‘Alfaxan Challenge’ recording during LVS, which takes place at ExCeL London on Thursday 17 and Friday 18 November, will win a £150 spa voucher.
The company will be showcasing both Alfaxan and Buprelieve on its stand. Buprelieve is the company’s recently launched cost-effective opioid analgesic licensed for use in dogs, cats and horses.
Jurox takes great pride in its investment in educational initiatives to help raise anaesthesia and analgesia standards in veterinary practices throughout the UK and will be hosting a series of lectures during LVS. The lectures are entitled ‘Considerations in canine caesarean section’ and ‘Alfaxalone – the evidence for its place in UK anaesthesia practice’. The sessions will be followed by an interactive panel Q&A on ‘How can Alfaxan work for my practice?’.
Taking place at 2.30pm to 3.10pm on Thursday 17 November, ‘Considerations in canine caesarean section’ will be presented by Jayne Clark BVSc BSc(Hons) GP Cert SAM MRCVS and Elizabeth Barker BVetMed(Hons) Cert AVP (VA) PgCert MRCVS, veterinary technical advisors at Jurox, both of whom are trained by veterinary anaesthesia diploma holders, are members of the Association of Veterinary Anaesthetists (AVA) and locum in practice to ensure their practical skills are maintained. ‘Alfaxalone – the evidence for its place in UK anaesthesia practice’ will take place at 11.30am to 12.10pm on Friday 18 November and will be presented by Matt Gurney BVSc CertVA DipECVAA MRCVS, RCVS Specialist and European diploma holder in Veterinary Anaesthesia and Analgesia.
