Equine veterinarians frequently encounter infected or necrotic wounds in daily practice. Recognition of the role that biofilms play in persistence of chronic wounds and lack of response to therapy in horses is increasing.
Increase your effectiveness in resolving stubborn equine wounds by joining Dr. Lynn Pezzanite for a discussion of why and how biofilms form, how to recognize clinical indications that biofilms have formed in equine wounds, current diagnostic options, and biofilm-based wound care strategies and wound dressings to eradicate biofilms and facilitate progression of the wound through contraction and epithelialization phases of healing.
