Introduction to the Program

You will learn to analyze the most frequent clinical signs of the most common viral diseases in small animals”

master enfermedades infecciosas pequenos animales TECH Global University

Vector-borne diseases, i.e., hematophagous arthropods, are a group of different entities produced by bacteria, viruses, protozoa and helminths. They are considered emerging (and sometimes non-emerging) in daily canine clinical practice. These diseases produce a great diversity of clinical pictures, they can be asymptomatic or can cause the death of the animal. Infectious diseases caused by parasites (Nematodes, Protozoa, Trematodes and Cestodes) are frequent in dogs, generally with gastrointestinal symptoms; the group of pulmonary parasites produces emerging pathologies in the patient. 

Enterobacteriaceae are another cause of gastrointestinal diseases in the dog that include zoonotic bacteria of potential risk to the patient. To a lesser degree, within the differential diagnoses, some species of algae also generate chronic conditions that affect the digestive system of dogs. Viral diseases in the feline species are often difficult for the small animal veterinarian to deal with. Some diseases present typical clinical signs, while others have different manifestations and present pictures similar to other pathologies or even neoplasms. 

Due to the particularities of the cat, there are certain differences in the approach with respect to the dog, such as specific bacteria of the feline species and typical bacterial and fungal clinical pictures. Among the parasites affecting the feline species, the clinic is always more familiar with those most frequently diagnosed and most prevalent. 

For all these reasons, the interest in this field has been increasing in recent years, which is why TECH offers this 100% online program, designed by experts in Small Animal Infectious Diseases, through only 12 months of specialization, 100% online and tailor-made by experts in Small Animal Infectious Diseases.
