Description
Acute haemorrhagic diarrhoea syndrome (AHDS), better known as haemorrhagic gastroenteritis (HE), is a common disease seen in the general veterinary practice. Presentation of these patients often includes severe dehydration and hypovolaemic shock, categorising these patients as requiring high intensity care. Fluid therapy, nutritional support and gastro protectants form the cornerstone of treatment of these patients. This webinar will address the possible underlying causes, leading into the discussion of specialised nursing considerations including an overview of treatment and the infection control review of these patients.
