Osteoarthritis
(OA) affects an estimated 40% of our small animal populations and with Beransa
on the market we have a clinically effective
tool in reducing associated pain. However, there can be increased risk of
injury when starting
an OA patient on effective pain relief without building muscle strength, proprioception
and mobility. This talk looks at current evidence and management of
osteoarthritis and how physiotherapy, and environmental modification, can work
in unison with veterinarians to prevent injury and complement pharmaceutical
management.
When: 6.45am – 7.45am, Friday 21 June
Where: Golden Fleece, Level 1, Crowne Plaza, 764 Colombo Street

The
animal health sector is facing a number of challenges in 2024:
including cost increases, labour shortages, and the need to build a
resilient workplace. To better understand these challenges and find
solutions for the future, Boehringer Ingelheim, in partnership with NZVA
and NZVNA, has conducted a comprehensive survey of people in the
industry around Aotearoa. At this event Boehringer Ingelheim will share
the survey findings, and open a discussion on how to address the various
challenges facing the animal health sector.
