Course Information
Nervous about nerve blocks? Jittery about joint medications? This course will focus on practical tips and techniques, with case examples, to arm you with the skills to embark on lameness investigations.
This course consists of a series of online webinars which will cover both forelimb and hindlimb nerve and joint blocks. The three experienced tutors will go through anatomy refreshers, tips on how to perform each block and how to interpret them. Each presentation will contain plenty of videos demonstrating positioning and landmarks. Options for joint medications will be covered including an evidence based, practical approach to regenerative medicine. The whole course of webinars can be purchased or individual webinars as a “pick and mix” option.
