BreathEazy, a leading provider of respiratory technology, is pleased to announce the UK launch of the Respiratory Educator Masterclass CPD. Led by Dr Anthony Gonzalez, DVM, DACVECC, this webinar-based course with streams for both veterinary surgeons and veterinary nurses covers all aspects of canine and feline respiratory case management. The course counts four hours of CPD and is free to access here.
To celebrate the launch, all those who complete the CPD can claim a free AeroKat or AeroDawg spacer device*, tailored to the needs of feline and canine respiratory patients. Inhaled therapies are widely used in the management of feline asthma and are increasingly recognised for their benefits in canine respiratory disease, including chronic bronchitis and tracheal collapse.
Participants will gain invaluable insights into the management of both infectious and non-infectious respiratory diseases. With a strong practical focus, topics covered include the use of auscultation to guide diagnosis and lung pattern interpretation, as well as the latest updates on inhaled therapies.
The course also addresses barriers to the use of spacers, including owner concerns regarding ease of use. Dr Gonzalez explains how he dispels client apprehensions, emphasising that many cat owners find inhaled medication easier to administer than tablets.
Dr Gonzalez is a board-certified veterinary critical care specialist at Cornell University. As a diplomate of the American College of Veterinary Emergency and Critical Care with a clinical interest in pulmonary medicine, he brings his extensive expertise to the course. He is joined by Alyssa Mages, a veterinary technician with over 16 years of clinical experience.
Jon Slattery, director of BreathEazy, says he is delighted to be able to offer vets and nurses the opportunity to access the Respiratory Educator Masterclass, saying, “With the current challenges in the veterinary profession, lack of time can be a barrier to accessing high-quality CPD. The course is broken down into eight bite-sized modules which are easy to access on-demand, meaning participants can complete the content at their own pace.”
The course can be accessed here.
Participants can claim their free AeroKat or AeroDawg* by emailing their CPD certificate to enquiries@breatheazy.co.uk.
