Wound and surgical site infections in the modern veterinary clinic: prevention and treatment

The theme will address problems and questions we all encounter in everyday veterinary practice. Surgical site and wound infections cause high costs and stress for the vet, owner and animal. Wound infections are caused by bacteria, and infections are prevented and treated with antibiotics… or are they?
We live in a world where resistant bacteria cause increasing problems. What can we do to both reduce wound infections ánd the use of antibiotics. Do antibiotics prevent or increase surgical site infection rates? When are bacteria a problem in open wounds? If so, do we need antibiotics or do we have alternative strategies? Or is it better not to treat bacteria at all?
Join us to learn about the latest developments in the practical approach of wound infections.
