Propiedades farmacológicas: Emodepside actúa en la unión neuromuscular por estimulación de los receptores presinápticos pertenecientes a la familia de receptores de secretina, lo que produce la parálisis y la muerte de los parásitos.

Prazicuantel se absorbe con rapidez desde la superficie de los parásitos y actúa produciendo un cambio en la permeabilidad del Ca2+ de las membranas del parásito, lo que provoca una lesión grave en el tegumento del parásito, contracción y parálisis, la interrupción del metabolismo y finalmente lleva a la muerte del parásito. Indicaciones: Para perros que sufran, o con riesgo de sufrir, infestaciones parasitarias mixtas causadas por nematodos: Toxocara canis (adulto maduro, adulto inmaduro, L4 y L3), Toxascaris leonina (adulto maduro, adulto inmaduro y L4) y Ancylostoma caninum (adulto maduro e inmaduro), Uncinaria stenocephala (adulto maduro e inmaduro) y Trichuris vulpis (adulto maduro e inmaduro) y causadas por cestodos: Dipylidium caninum, Taenia spp., Echinococcus multilocularis (adulto maduro e inmaduro) y Echinococcus granulosus (adulto maduro e inmaduro). Contraindicaciones: No usar en cachorros de menos de 12 semanas de edad o de peso inferior a 1 kg. No usar en caso de hipersensibilidad a los principios activos o a alguno de los excipientes. Precauciones de uso: Para los perros: En perros extremadamente débiles o que tengan la función hepática o renal gravemente comprometida, Profender debe utilizarse de acuerdo con la evaluación beneficio/riesgo efectuada por el veterinario. No se recomienda el tratamiento durante la gestación y lactancia.

Para la persona que administra el medicamento: Lávese bien las manos después de administrar los comprimidos. En caso de ingestión accidental, consulte inmediatamente con un médico y muéstrele el prospecto. Interacciones: El tratamiento combinado con otros fármacos sustratos/inhibidores de la glucoproteína P podría originar interacciones farmacocinéticas. Las posibles consecuencias clínicas no se han investigado. Posología y modo de administración: 1 comprimido de Profender para perros pequeños por cada 3 kg de peso. 1 comprimido de Profender para perros medianos por cada 10 kg de peso. 1 comprimido de Profender para perros grandes por cada 30 kg de peso.

Barcelona, 1st October 2009 Barcelona Congress Center, Barcelona Fair Room 6, Pavilion 5

Barcelona, 1st October 2009 Barcelona Congress Center, Barcelona Fair Room 5, Pavilion 5

The Veterinary practice is a service industry committed to serving the needs of our clients (pet owners and their pets) through selling veterinary services and products. To be successful, the management systems that exist within practices need to be consistently producing satisfied and loyal clients who are willing to continue to require these services. However, increasing competition means that clients not only have more choice than ever before about where to take their pets, they are also less loyal, choosing perhaps one clinic for their cat and one for their dog.

What are the factors you can work with that can help you create satisfied clients that keep coming back to you?

To help you to achieve this objective, we are pleased to invite you to the Hill´s Symposium on Practice Management,

“Becoming a Client-Centered Veterinary Practice” 09,30-10,30 Development of standards. Dr. Christine Merle 10,30-11,30 Is it possible to be client centered, patient centered AND have a healthy business?

SEVC MASTERCLASSES

Case discussions with an Expert!

SEVC Masterclasses have been running for the last 2 years to bring case discussions closer to the Conference Delegates.

Attendees can become actively involved in the learning process in case-oriented small group discussions with an expert.

Masterclasses are presented in English and have no Simultaneous Translation. Registration is limited to 15 to 30 attendees per lecture.

HOW DO I LEARN? “If you tell me I will forget, If you show me I might remember, But if you involve me, I will learn.”

Chinese Proverb

DR. GUILLERMO COUTO

DR. JULY LEVY

What is this lab work trying to tell me?

Cats vs. Heartworms: How real is the Threat?

Friday October 2nd from 11:30 – 13.30 Room 2 (Pavilion 5)

Saturday October 3rd from 11:30 – 13.30 Room 2 (Pavilion 5)

This masterclass will discuss results of complete blood counts and serum biochemical profiles, and how to better use them to obtain a diagnosis in a patient with 'mysetry illnesses' using case discussions.

Heartworm infection in cats is both difficult to diagnose and to treat. After attending this session, participants will have an enhanced understanding of the complexity of diagnosing heartworm infection in cats, the role of transient heartworm exposure in the development of persistent Heartworm Associated Respiratory Disease (HARD), and the potential role of Wolbachia bacteria in clinical heartworm disease syndromes in cats.

The SEVC Masterclasses will take place at the SEVC Venue (Barcelona Congress Center) Please note that they are separate to the SEVC Scientific Programme and that it is compulsory to be registered for the SEVC Scientific Programme, before you can register for the masterclasses.

Friday October 2nd from 15:00 – 17:00 Room 2 (Pavilion 5) This seminar will discuss various problems related to abdominal surgery. Dehiscence and leakage of an intestinal incision can result from poor choices by the surgeon at the time of surgery.

Postoperative infections following intestinal surgery will be discussed and differential diagnoses will be included. Lack of attention to detail can sometimes lead to unwanted problems following abdominal surgery. A case will be discussed that demonstrates this principle. Good success is usually associated with the surgical correction of acute gastric dilatation-volvulus.

However, we will discuss several potential problems that could lead to the death of an animal following a successful gastropexy. Prevention of these problems will be emphasized.

DR. LESLEY KING Fluid Therapy and Shock Management.

A Case Based Approach Saturday October 3rd from 15:00 – 17:00 Room 2 (Pavilion 5) Fluid therapy for emergency patients with shock can be challenging. This interactive session will allow participants to discuss fluid choices, including types and volumes of fluid to administer to a variety of patients in different situations.

Goals and complications of fluid therapy will be emphasized.

Participants will be encouraged to actively join in the discussion about management of real emergency cases.

SEVC WORKSHOPS KEEPING ABDOMINAL SURGERY SIMPLE AND PRACTICAL

SMALL ANIMAL EMERGENCY AND CRITICAL CARE TECHNIQUES

Improve your surgical skills and learn new ones for managing the more challenging cases with this practical lab on cadavers with plenty of hands-on opportunities!

A half day packed with procedures on how to keep your patient alive when all seems lost! Vascular access, feeding tube placement, emergency tracheostomy, epidural injections and much, much more!

INSTRUCTORS: Dr. R. Bright , Dr. I. Durall, Dr. MC. Díaz-Bertrana DATE: Wednesday 30th Sept. - 10,30h.-18,30h.

VENUE: UAB - Vet. School PRICE: 600€ (500€, If you are also registered to the SEVC Scientific Programme)

INSTRUCTORS: Dr. C. Fragio, Dr. M. Boller, Dr. Y. Moens, Dr. I. Goy , Dr. C. Torrente DATE: Thursday 1 Oct. - 10,30h.-14,30h.

VENUE: UAB - Vet School PRICE: 350€ (250€, If you are also registered to the SEVC Scientific Programme)

The objective of this lab is to make the participant more comfortable in performing some surgical techniques that are at beginning to intermediate level, although some more challenging techniques will be included.

The lab will have a short lecture/description, of approximately 30-45 min about the technical aspects of the procedures that will be later performed on a cadaver animal; the practical sessions will then be approximately 2 ½ hours: a team of 3 participants will be assigned to each cadaver. One member of the team of 3 will be the primary surgeon with the other 2 assisting with a particular procedure. Ideally, the role of the primary surgeon will be shared equally between the 3 individuals assigned to each cadaver as they work through several procedures planned for each session. The laboratory design will be similar for the morning and afternoon sessions.

The morning session lecture will cover gastric dilatation–volvulus, liver diseases, and biliary tree disorders. The laboratory session will include incisional gastropexy technique, liver biopsy, liver lobectomy, exploration of the biliary tree and cholecystectomy. The afternoon session will have a short lecture on intestinal diseases amenable to surgery and urinary bladder disorders. Laboratory session will include enterotomy, end-to-end anastomosis, serosal patch techniques, cystotomy, and tube cystostomy.

Instructors will rotate between each of the tables allowing the participants to have contact with ALL of the instructors. This will help ensure that everyone on each team will be exposed to a broad amount of skill and expertise of all instructors present.

By the end of the laboratory sessions, each participant should be more at ease when faced with the challenge of doing some or all of these common surgical techniques done in most veterinary practices.

CLINICAL AND SURGICAL PROCEDURES IN AVIAN PRACTICE Plenty of hands-on experience for avian vets: from intraosseus catheter placement to cloacopexy... and lots more surgical procedures!

INSTRUCTORS: Dr. A. Bennett , Dr. J. Martorell , Dr. R. Molina DATE: Thursday 1st Oct. - 10,30h.-14,30h.

VENUE: UAB- Vet. School PRICE: 250€ (200€ If you are also registered to the SEVC Scientific Programme) In this wetlab, participants will have an opportunity to learn several practical techniques such as intraosseous catheter placement, injection sites, air sac cannula placement, and how to place an esophagostomy feeding tube. Working in pairs and under the supervision of an instructor, participants will learn and perform surgical procedures such as ingluviotomy and crop biopsy, tracheotomy and trachectomy, left lateral celiotomy for gonadectomy and ventriculotomy, ventral midline celiotomy to perform the different techniques for cloacopexy, and cloacotomy.

Working in pairs, registrants will perform the surgical techniques on pidgeon cadavers. This wetlab will provide veterinarians with an opportunity to learn about clinical and surgical procedures in avian practice and to gain technical skills in working with these species.

A half day wet-lab for veterinarians who want to obtain valuable training on numerous treatment procedures that are essential to the successful management of emergency/critical patients. After a very short introductory video-lecture, participants will be teamed up into small groups (3 persons in a group) and will rotate through different stations, where they will perform all the procedures listed below on cadavers, under direct supervision of five Emergency and Critical Care Veterinary Specialists. The excellent participants/instructor ratio will ensure that all attendees will be able to carry out and learn all the procedures during the time allocated.

The procedures reviewed will be: VASCULAR ACCESS: a. Central venous catheter placement: Seldinger technique, peel away technique. b. CVP measurement. c. Cut downs for venous access on: jugular vein, cephalic vein, saphenous vein FEEDING TUBES: a. Naso-esophageal/gastric tube placement. b. Esophagostomy tube placement.

RESPIRATORY SYSTEM: a. Emergency tracheostomy. b. Techniques for oxygen administration: nasal, transtracheal catheters. c.

Thoracic drains.

ANALGESIA – ANESTHESIA: a. Epidural injections and catheter placement. b. Intercostal blocks.

ABDOMEN: Peritoneal drain, diagnostic peritoneal lavage. At the end of this lab, participants should be able to perform the above mentioned emergency and critical care procedures.

EVERYTHING YOU EVER WANTED TO KNOW ABOUT CYTOLOGY, BUT WERE AFRAID TO ASK! Plenty of exposure to a wide variety of cytologic slides, from inflammation to neoplasia, helping you come up with a diagnosis using just a microscope! A very practical and interactive lab!

INSTRUCTORS: Dr. G. Couto , Dr. J. Pastor , Dr. A. Lara DATE: Thursday 1st Oct. - 14,30h.-18,30h.

VENUE: Fira - SEVC Venue (Room 11, P5) PRICE: 200€ (150€ If you are also registered to the SEVC Scientific Programme) The goals of this course are to familiarize attendees with the use of the microscope to make interpretations of cytologic specimens from a wide range of tissues. Differentiation of inflammation from neoplasia and the diagnosis of specific types of neoplasia will be discussed. Each attendee will be allocated to a microscope and will review each case individually.

Cases will then be discussed collectively using a videomicroscope. Brief presentations will be given prior to each group of cases as a preview for the changes that are present on the glass slides and that are representatives to certain pathologies. This is a very interactive laboratory with opportunity for individual attention from each of the instructors.

A film-reading practical class designed to help delegates working in small groups to practice their radiographic interpretation skills and receive guidance and feedback from experts.

At the end of this lab, delegates should have gained a clearer understanding of the radiographic appearance of the abdominal cavity and related pahologies.

A film-reading practical class designed to help delegates working in small groups to practice their radiographic interpretation skills and receive guidance and feedback from experts.

At the end of this lab, delegates should have gained a clearer understanding of the radiographic appearance of the thoracic cavity and related pathologies.

Participants will be teamed up in small groups to work on cadavers. The lab is divided in two parts: First part: immediate medical procedures, urethral catheterization and post-obstructive care. This part includes a “round table” with open discussion about medical emergency management of the blocked cat (controversies, ect.) and a wet-lab about cystocentesis and urethral catheterization on cadavers. Second part: surgery on cadavers. Everything you always wanted to know about urethrostomy but were afraid to ask.

Throughout the lab we will answer questions such as: should an IV catheter be placed? Is a chemistry panel necessary? What kind of parameter do I need? Can I start my fluids even if bladder decompression cannot happen immediately? What kind of fluids do I use?

(Lactate of Ringer, which contains potassium or NaCl 0,9%, which is acidifying). Do I place an ECG even if the patient is not bradycardic to determine any effects of hyperkalemia? What are the classic ECG changes associated with hyperkalemia? When do I start on specific medications to protect the heart (calcium gluconate) and promote intracellular shift of potassium (insulin, dextrose, and/or sodium bicarbonate)? Cystocentesis: pros and cons. Urethral catheterization: How can I sedate or anesthetize my blocked cat? (Stable versus unstable cat). What kind of urethral catheter can I use? What tricks and helpful technique(s) are available? Do I perform abdominal radiographs? Important aspects of post-obstructive care: Fluid therapy and monitoring of urine output. Analgesia and sedation. (buprenorphine, fentanyl, hydromorphone or acepromazine?). Electrolytes and renal values monitoring. Antibiotics? How long should I let the urinary catheter in place? How long should my cat be observed after catheter removal to ensure effective spontaneous urination prior to discharge?. Urethrostomy: Pros and cons.

When is a good time to perform it? What kind of procedure can I use? At the end of this lab participants should be able to unblock a blocked cat. They should also be able to answer all the questions above. Finally, they will never be afraid to perform a urethrostomy.

BEHAVIOUR MODIFICATION TECHNIQUES IN CANINE BEHAVIOURAL MEDICINE Become familiar with the basic concepts of behaviour modification. Learn practical tips and techniques including desensitization and counterconditioning.

INSTRUCTORS: Dr. J. Fatjo , Dr. R. Casey , Dr. P. Calvo DATE: Saturday- 3th Oct. - 10,00h.-14,00h.

VENUE: Fira - SEVC Venue (Room 11 and 12) (Pavilion 5) PRICE: 150€ (100€ If you are also registered to the SEVC Scientific Programme) The prevention and treatment of most canine behaviour problems should include the use of basic behaviour modification techniques.

During the last decades the use of punishment, negative reinforcement and flooding has been progressively replaced by more effective and welfare-friendly techniques, like desensitization and counter-conditioning.

Systematic desensitization (including counter-conditioning) and differential positive reinforcement are the behaviour modification techniques most commonly used in the prevention and treatment of a wide range of behaviour problems, including social phobias, aggression and thunderstorm phobias. Also, training exercises based on gradual exposure to potentially aversive situations are extensively included in puppy seminars.

After a very brief theoretical introduction, the lab will concentrate on making the clinician familiar with the practical tips and pitfalls related to the use of the aforementioned behaviour modification techniques. Participants will be teamed up in groups of three people and will work with dogs adopted from a rescue center in the area of Barcelona. For the safety of participants, no dogs with a known history of aggression towards people will be allowed.
