SUMMARY:VET BOOSTER | Webinar Invitation
DESCRIPTION:Subject: Vet Booster – Webinar Invitation\nSpeakers: Mark Slaughter\, Dean Webb and Dave Oxenham\nOrganizer: The Legacy Group\nLINK: REGISTER HERE \nVet Booster is the culmination of years of collaboration with veterinary partners. It empowers vets with a platform to strengthen client relationships\, enhance their practice’s value\, and support both their financial and emotional well-being in a demanding profession. At The Legacy Group\, we are committed to making a difference—for pets\, their owners\, and the professionals who care for them. \nWe invite you to join one of our upcoming Vet Booster webinars for April 2026: \nThese sessions will briefly unpack the Vet Booster platform\, share our vision\, and provide an opportunity to ask questions. \nA growing share of veterinary retail revenue has shifted to large online retailers\, often at the expense of practices. Vet Booster has been developed to help vets take that revenue back\, while also driving increased engagement and more in-practice visits through wellness and preventative care. \nWe’d appreciate the opportunity to share both the vision and the intent behind Vet Booster. \nDisclaimer: This information is exclusively intended for registered veterinary and para-veterinary professionals.

SUMMARY:WILDLIFE PHARMACEUTICALS | Oral pain in captive wild animals : “They are still eating so this does not hurt!” Debunking the myth
DESCRIPTION:Subject: Oral pain in captive wild animals : “They are still eating so this does not hurt!” Debunking the myth\nSpeakers: Dr Gerhard Putter\nOrganizer: Wildlife Pharmaceuticals\nLINK: REGISTER HERE \nDescription:\nThis webinar will challenge the common assumption that captive wild animals do not experience oral or dental pain. It will explore whether this perception stems from the animals’ limited expression of pain\, or more likely\, from gaps in our ability to recognise the subtle and often non-specific clinical signs they display. \nUnderstanding this issue is critical\, as it directly influences clinical decision-making. The session will emphasise the responsibility of veterinarians and animal carers to refine their diagnostic approaches\, treatment strategies\, and management practices accordingly. \nDr Gerhard Putter BVSc MANZCVS (Dentistry and Oral Surgery) DipEVDC RCVS\nGerhard Putter qualified in South Africa with a Bachelor of Veterinary Science (BVSc) degree from the University of Pretoria in 1984. He was admitted as a Member of the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons in 1998. For more than two decades\, Dr Putter has focused his professional practice on veterinary dentistry. He has been a Member of the Australian and New Zealand College of Veterinary Scientists (Veterinary Dentistry and Oral Surgery) since 2014. In 2018\, he became a Diplomate of the European Veterinary Dental College and is a recognised specialist in veterinary dentistry by both the European and Royal Veterinary Colleges. Dr Putter is currently Head of Dentistry\, Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery at DWR Veterinary Referrals near Cambridge\, United Kingdom\, and serves as an Associate Assistant Professor at the University of Nottingham. He has extensive experience and a particular interest in the dentistry and oral health care of wild animals in captivity. \nDisclaimer: This information is exclusively intended for registered veterinary and para-veterinary professionals.

SUMMARY:IDEXX | April VetSpecialist Exchange Webinar: Electrolytes in Critical Care: Navigating Complex Imbalances
DESCRIPTION:Subject: Electrolytes in Critical Care: Navigating Complex Imbalances\nSpeakers: Dr. Alessio Vigani\nOrganizer: Idexx\nLINK: REGISTER HERE \nDescription: \nElectrolyte disturbances are common in critically ill patients and are associated with worse clinical outcomes. Although electrolytes are routinely monitored in intensive care units (ICUs)\, their exact prevalence and prognostic impact in medical ICU populations remain incompletely defined. Critically ill patients are particularly susceptible to both depletion and excess of key electrolytes\, which may arise from underlying disease processes and can contribute to clinical deterioration. Multiple electrolyte abnormalities often occur simultaneously and may share a common underlying cause. While some imbalances are transient or asymptomatic\, recognizing and addressing them is essential because uncorrected disturbances are more frequently observed in non-survivors than survivors. Management should prioritize identifying and correcting the underlying cause while adjusting electrolyte intake\, clearance\, or distribution as needed. Because ICU patients have complex and dynamic conditions\, electrolyte therapy must be individualized and carefully monitored to avoid harm. \nSpeaker: \nAlessio Vigani is currently professor and medical director of emergency\, critical care and extracorporeal therapy at The University of Zurich Small Animal Hospital. Alessio received his D.V.M. degree Summa Cum Laude from the University of Milan in 2006 and then obtained his PhD degree in clinical sciences. He completed a small animal rotating internship at the Ohio State University in Columbus in 2009. He subsequently pursued two consecutive residency programs in veterinary anesthesia and analgesia and emergency and critical care at the University of Florida. He is an ACVAA diplomate since 2012\, ACVECC diplomate since 2014\, and ECVECC diplomate since 2019. He previously worked as Clinical Assistant Professor in Emergency\, Critical Care and Extracorporeal therapy at North Carolina State University from 2015 until 2019. His special interests include acute kidney injury\, extracorporeal blood purification\, regional anesthesia in critical care\, and hemodynamics. \nDisclaimer: This information is exclusively intended for registered veterinary and para-veterinary professionals.
