Description

The most complete and up-to-date program in Respiratory Pathologies in Hospitalized Equine Patients on the online educational market"

##IMAGE##

This postgraduate certificate lays the foundations for a specialization in Equine Hospital Medicine. It defines the logistics and clinical strategy required in a hospital for horses. It addresses various topics, extremely necessary in order to acquire a global idea of how an equine hospital works and to consider the hospitalization of any patient regardless of their main pathology.

It describes the layout of the different facilities and establishes the necessary guidelines for the cleaning and disinfection of different areas in relation to their degree of contamination by the patients treated in each one. Develop specialized knowledge on advanced pharmacology for hospitalized patients. This program establishes the ideal pharmacological guidelines, antibiotherapy and multimodal analgesia applicable to each patient depending on their severity, which differs greatly from the approach used in field clinics.

Due to the severity of the clinical symptoms presented by most hospitalized patients, it is necessary to establish specific guidelines for fluid therapy and nutrition according to the stabilization requirements and metabolic needs of each patient.

Finally, in the first section of the program, the interpretation of blood count, serum biochemistry and blood gas analysis is discussed as it is very important to establish the severity of hospitalized patients. These diagnostic methods will also be key to monitoring the patients during the hospitalization period. 

This postgraduate certificate also provides a detailed review of the different pathologies that can affect the respiratory system. It begins with an in-depth explanation of clinical examinations, since there are specific clinical findings that are characteristic of some pathologies which are important to know how to detect. Complementary diagnostic methods that will help us to establish the location and the severity of the injury, will be reviewed. Each of them will be described and images and protocols will be shown so that students can master the techniques and perform them. 

The main respiratory pathologies have been subdivided into anatomical zones to facilitate their understanding and study by students, allowing the creation of a detailed list of possible differential diagnoses for each zone. The topics will also be structured by etiological origin, facilitating the choice of the most suitable treatment in each case.
