SUMMARY:Staying Sound in Practice: Injury Prevention\, Ergonomics and Longevity for the Equine Veterinarian
DESCRIPTION:Presented by the AAEP Healthy Practice Committee. \nEquine veterinary medicine is physically demanding—long hours\, heavy lifting\, repetitive motions\, awkward positions\, and hours behind the wheel all take a toll on the body. Over time\, these stresses can contribute to chronic pain\, injury\, and reduced career longevity. In this webinar\, led by an experienced Exercise Physiologist\, Kevin Balcirak\, you’ll learn targeted exercises and stretches designed specifically to support  unique physical demands of equine practice. \nWe’ll cover: \n\nInjury prevention strategies to protect joints\, muscles\, and tendons\nPre- and post-work stretches to keep you mobile and reduce fatigue\nErgonomic tips for common procedures\, from dentistry to palpation\nPosture and stretching techniques for long hours of driving in ambulatory practice\nStrength-building routines to improve endurance and resilience in the field\n\nWhether you’re in the barn\, the clinic\, or on the road\, these practical\, science-based tools will help you protect your body\, improve your comfort\, and extend your career. This is a must-attend session for any equine veterinarian looking to stay healthy\, strong\, and pain-free throughout the demands of practice. \nPanelists: Kevin Balcirak\, Exercise Physiologist and Dr. Meggan Graves\, AAEP Healthy Practice Committee Chair \nKevin Balcirak brings over 35 years of experience in health and wellness\, founding Body Structure in 1997. Under his leadership\, the facility has become a trusted partner of physicians and allied health professionals.

SUMMARY:Virtual Wednesday Round Table: Biofilm-Based Wound Care Strategies in Chronic Non-Healing Wounds
DESCRIPTION: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. \nIncrease 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. \nView On Demand Here \n——————————————————– \nThe AAEP Virtual Wednesday Round Tables are interactive sessions held twice monthly on Zoom and led by subject matter experts\, covering both clinical and non-clinical topics. Questions? Contact Karen Pautz\, AAEP director of education\, at kpautz@aaep.org. \nThe 2025 season of Virtual Wednesday Round Tables is sponsored by American Regent Animal Health.
