2010 Equine Upper Airway Symposium Registration Open
« Back
The 2010 Upper Airway Symposium is scheduled for February 11-14, 2010, at the Embassy Suites in Lexington, Kentucky. The 3 ˝ day symposium offers an intense schedule of lectures and labs designed to present in depth, current information regarding pathophysiology, diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis for upper airway (UA) conditions in the horse. The target participants for the meeting are veterinarians in resident training programs and young clinicians who have not had the desired exposure to UA conditions in the horse. The number of participants will be limited to 40, dictated by available lab space. Participants will be accepted in the order the registration is received, with additional preference provided to those in residency training programs.
Speakers on this year’s program include Dr. Padraic Dixon from the University of Edinburgh; Drs. Rolf Embertson and J. Brett Woodie, Rood & Riddle Equine Hospital; Dr. Norm Ducharme, Cornell University; Dr. Sue Holcombe, Michigan State University; and Dr. Eric Parente, University of Pennsylvania. Symposium labs offer training in the anatomy of the larnyx and sinuses, laryngeal ultrasound, fixed and remote treadmill endoscopy, and tie-forward, laryngoplasty, and laser ventriculocordectomy surgical procedures.
The Equine Upper Airway Symposium program has been submitted, but not yet approved, for 20.5 hours of continuing education credit in jurisdictions which recognize AAVSB RACE approval; however, participants should be aware that some boards have limitations on the number of hours accepted in certain categories and/or restrictions on certain methods of delivery of continuing education.
