About this course

Why is my diabetic cat not responding to insulin?

Poorly controlled diabetes can be a serious problem for some of our patients. Acromegaly is a relatively common cause of insulin resistance yet is a relatively under-diagnosed endocrinopathy. This webinar will review key points about acromegaly and its relationship to diabetes to help nurses with an interest in nursing feline diabetic patients understand more about this fascinating disorder.
