Course Overview

Gastro-intestinal disease is a common cause for concern in clinical practice. The clinical signs can range from acute and dramatic presentations through to chronic, lower grade clinical signs. There is a wide variety of underlying conditions that can affect the gastro-intestinal tract and differentiating these is not always straightforward. With a logical and ordered approach though, a satisfying outcome is possible in many cases. In this course, we will discuss the clinical approach to gastro-intestinal disease in both cats and dogs and how best to manage the various underlying conditions. We will also discuss the role of the microbiome and how consideration of this is altering our understanding of many gastro-intestinal conditions in cats and dogs.

Module 1. Clinical Approach to the Gastro-Intestinal tract
Module 2. Approach to Acute Vomiting and Diarrhoea
Module 3. Approach to Chronic Canine Gastro-Intestinal Disorders
Module 4. Approach to Chronic Feline Gastro-Intestinal Disorders
Module 5. Pancreatitis: Should I give enzymes?
Module 6. Approach to Gastro-Intestinal Neoplasia

Course Format

Tutored
Untutored On Demand

This course is designed as a refresher CPD course and is composed of a series of modules, with each module containing a recorded video webinar, notes to download and keep, plus clinical cases to deepen your understanding. The webinars are not live and can be viewed whenever works best for you.

Tutored courses run with a tutor for three weeks (the advertised dates), plus you then get continued access for a further 11 months (so 12 months in total). You can do our courses at your own pace and at times that suit you. Nothing has to be done at set times, so the courses are perfect for a world-wide audience.

Tutored courses are supplemented by a discussion forum where you can ask the tutor questions and debate topics relevant to your daily practice – this forum operates for the three weeks of the advertised course dates. Total course access is 12 months. Courses are completed with an MCQ exam (giving you 8 hours of CPD) which can be taken at any time during the 12 months the course is running.
