presentation overview

Acute flare-ups of chronic osteoarthritis may become more frequent as the patient ages and requires more veterinary input. Understanding the causes of the flares is often limited, and effective management strategies are not commonly practiced by owners. This session aims at increasing understanding of the underlying pathology and how to best manage these episodes, including setting realistic expectations and timelines. This may include renegotiating the management strategy as the condition progresses and incorporating non-pharmacological approaches.
