SUMMARY:SAVA JHB BRANCH | When GP meets Theriogenologist
DESCRIPTION:Subject: When GP meets Theriogenologist\nSpeaker: Dr. Kurt de Cramer\nSponsor: SAVA JHB Branch & Hill’s Pet Nutrition\nLINK: REGISTER HERE \nSpeaker: Dr. Kurt de Cramer – B.Sc. B.V.Sc. MMedVet(Gyn) PhD\nDr Kurt De Cramer fulfils the dual role of generalist and specialist in animal reproduction at the clinic. Attending to the most challenging cases is what keeps him charged. He has equal affinity for all members of the mammalian and avian species\, but prefers to leave the scally ones to others. He regretfully admits that his profession is both his work and hobby. Dr De Cramer has an inquisitive mind which compels him to continue making a contribution to the science of healing animals and solving clinical problems. This dedication has led to a PhD thesis\, reference book on dog reproduction and numerous publications\, all of which is a unique achievement for those in full time practice. Dr De Cramer is better known for fixing the problem than petting the pet. Dr De Cramer finds stress relief in regular escapes to the gym. Dr De Cramer’s gorgeous wife\, Zelda\, shares his passion for all God’s little creatures and enjoys immortalising them on canvas. They are proud parents to Kyle and Mira. \nIN-PERSON RATES \nJohannesburg Branch Members – Free\nAll Other participants R325 \nPAYMENT LINK – https://savaevents.co.za/ \nDisclaimer: This information is exclusively intended for registered veterinary and para-veterinary professionals.

DESCRIPTION:Subject: Canine Worms: The Role of Testing and Guidelines in a Rapidly Changing Landscape\nSpeakers: Dr Ian Wright\nOrganizer: Idexx\nLINK: REGISTER HERE \nWas that negative fecal test enough to rule out parasites? Diagnostic sufficiency depends on which parasite you’re ruling out — roundworms\, tapeworms\, and lungworm (Angiostrongylus vasorum) don’t all show up the same way on the same tests. This session reviews current ESCCAP and CAPC recommendations\, shifting geographic and epidemiologic trends in Echinococcus multilocularis and A. vasorum\, and how routine testing and preventative treatment complement each other — so you can evaluate whether a patient’s testing and prevention history genuinely means the patient is clear\, or whether parasites are still on the table. \nPresenter: Dr Ian Wright is a practicing veterinary surgeon\, practice co-owner\, parasitologist\, and Chairman of ESCCAP\, with over 130 peer-reviewed publications on companion animal parasite control. \nCan’t make the live webinar?\nDon’t worry. All sessions are recorded and available several weeks after the live event on the VetSpecialist Exchange landing page\non the IDEXX Learning Center. \nDisclaimer: This information is exclusively intended for registered veterinary and para-veterinary professionals.

SUMMARY:IDEXX | Fever Of Unknown Origin In Horses: Similar Clinical Signs But Three Different Clinical Diagnoses
DESCRIPTION:Subject: Fever Of Unknown Origin In Horses: Similar Clinical Signs But Three Different Clinical Diagnoses\nSpeaker: Dr Tania Kozikowski-Nicholas\nOrganizer: Idexx\nLINK: REGISTER HERE \nThis webinar focuses on the presentation and discussion of equine clinical cases involving fever of unknown origin\, outlining a structured clinical approach with a particular emphasis on the strategic use of laboratory diagnostic tools. Potential differential diagnoses are systematically considered\, promoting a rational\, targeted\, and resource-efficient use of the diagnostic tools available in clinical practice.\nBy the end of this webinar\, participants will be able to: \n\nApply a structured approach to the interpretation of commonly used laboratory parameters when managing cases with non-specific or ambiguous clinical signs.\nIntegrate and cross-evaluate individual laboratory parameters to enhance clinical reasoning and improve diagnostic clarity.\nCommunicate laboratory findings and diagnostic decisions more effectively to clients in a clear\, structured\, and educational manner.\n\nDisclaimer: This information is exclusively intended for registered veterinary and para-veterinary professionals.
