My Approach to the Lame Dog: A Thorough Assessment in a Ten-Minute Consultation

This webinar reviews the goals of an orthopaedic consultation, and suggested approaches to clinical history taking and examination. There is emphasis on the use of validated owner-questionnaires, and client-/ patient-specific outcomes measures in order to grade the severity of disease and to track clinical status for a given case. There is a case-based section on lameness assessment/ gait analysis, so the viewer should gain further confidence in spotting and grading lameness.
