This course forms part of the Anaesthesia one-year course but all modules from 1 to 10 are suitable as stand-alone courses. There is also a two-day practical course available on 11th and 12th May 2010. For full details on this search for anaesthesia practicals using the search facility

 

This course has been designed for all vets who have a special interest in the field of anaesthesia. The eight taught modules will cover the key areas of both anaesthesia and analgesia, across the different animal species. There have been important developments in pharmacology over the last few years and these new agents will be included as will a review of the latest anaesthetic equipment available for the delivery of anaesthetic drugs and the subsequent monitoring of the anaesthetised patient. A case-based session and a two-day practical session will help reinforce the teaching and ensure that the new knowledge and skills can be directly related to clinical cases. Delegates attending the course should receive a sound understanding of the principles of anaesthesia and this will be of immediate benefit to both the practice and patients.
