Are We Doing Enough for Dogs with CKD? Find Out in This Webinar

Chronic Kidney Disease in dogs is a complicated disease that even experienced practitioners find difficult to manage. It develops insidiously, many times progressing before the symptoms become apparent, which places many dogs at risk and many clinicians in search of better ways of detection and management.

As the number of cases of CKD continues to rise, the need for deeper knowledge and practical strategies also increases. Vet & Tech continues to commit to providing up-to-date learning resources that enable veterinary professionals to enhance their skill level through live veterinary CE webinars that bring evidence-based insights and real-world solutions right to your screen.

That mission continues with the upcoming Management of CKD in Dogs Webinar, a RACE-approved, 1 CE credit session that will transform how veterinarians approach canine kidney disease.

During this session, she will guide the attendees through all aspects of CKD, from early diagnosis and staging to comprehensive management.

Expect to leave with a better grasp of the following:

  • The clinical signs and laboratory changes that come with CKD and uremia

With Dr. Kendall's dynamic lecture style and clinically relevant pearls, each attendee, from the nephrology novice to experienced professional, will leave with knowledge that can be applied the very next day.

Why CKD in Dogs Deserves Every Veterinarian's Attention

CKD is one of the most common chronic diseases in dogs, especially in older age. It is not only a physiological challenge but also an emotional one. The management of CKD demands regular monitoring, education of the owner, and long-term support.

For veterinarians, a cutting-edge knowledge of veterinary nephrology offers the possibility of diagnosing the disease earlier and making treatment decisions based on evidence to prolong and improve the lives of their patients.

Modern technology is also changing the way veterinarians tackle complicated chronic cases. Veterinary AI scribe systems help clinics streamline case documentation, track disease progression, and efficiently record vital notes.

This way, a veterinarian also frees up more time for patient care and client communication. Blending clinical competence with digital innovation allows veterinarians to provide more personalized care, thus being able to give each CKD patient continuous, accurate, and compassionate support.
