Course Information
Are you worried that your last consult might have Alabama rot? How can you know and then what should you do?
Cutaneous and renal glomerular vasculopathy (CRGV, aka Alabama rot) has been consistently seen in dogs in the UK each year since 2012. The exact causal agent remains unknown. One of the primary clinical signs is otherwise innocuous looking non-traumatic lesions (often on the legs, feet or muzzle) which can easily be mistaken as something else. The majority of dogs with CRGV are given NSAIDs at this first diagnosis which can seriously impact the acute kidney injury that some dogs will develop with CRGV.
This webinar is designed to update clinicians on the current evidence regarding the causes, presentation and treatment of dogs with CRGV, including practical tips such as when to suspect it and what treatments to avoid minimising potential problems down the road.
Participants gain access to the webinar for two weeks which allows them to view it at their leisure and convenience as well as review aspects as needed to enhance their learning.
The webinar will run from 12:30pm to 2:30pm London time.
