Veterinary Anaesthesia and Analgesia (Online Learning) PgDip

Anaesthesia and analgesia have vital importance in improving animal welfare, facilitating veterinary treatment, as well as permitting the ongoing medical and surgical developments in a research context.<br/><br/>Advances in anaesthesia over the last 20 years have been considerable. For example, our knowledge of locoregional anaesthetic techniques and an ever-increasing array of treatment options to manage pain, alongside the wider availability of monitoring equipment, means we can aim to optimise animal welfare while reducing anaesthetic-related morbidity and mortality. <br/><br/>This programme allows you to study these advances, during which you can gain knowledge and understanding in the equipment, drugs and techniques associated with veterinary anaesthesia and analgesia.<br/><br/>The teaching team offers a diverse range of clinical and research experience across various species. Through the varied selection of elective courses, you can tailor the programme to suit your clinical interests, including topics such as ventilation, ethics, and non-technical skills, alongside species-specific courses.
