This course is aimed at equine clinicians with a good working knowledge of equine cardiology and is ideal for vets who have previously attended our course on Practical Cardiology for Equine Practitioners. The team of internationally renowned equine cardiologists will be covering the following topics through well-illustrated lectures, video demonstrations and case discussions in English (with German moderation):

• Advanced Echocardiographic Assessment of Left-Sided Valvular Regurgitation
• Segmental Approach to the Evaluation of Congenital Cardiac Disease
• Common Echocardiographic Pitfalls
• Atrial and Ventricular Arrhythmias – Diagnosis and Treatment
• Evaluation of Atrial and Ventricular Function with Tissue Doppler Imaging
• Practical Application of Speckle Tracking (Evaluation of Myocardial Strain)
• Exercising ECG and Continuous ECG Monitoring in the Sport Horse
• Management of Atrial Fibrillation and Atrial Tachycardia      
• Equine Asthma, Pulmonary Hypertension and Evaluation of Right Heart Function
• Endocarditis and Pericarditis
• Heart Murmurs and Arrhythmias Case-based Discussions

The 8 hours of echocardiography in small groups (max. 5 attendees per instructor), ECG wetlabs and interactive case-discussions will provide ample opportunities for attending vets to further develop their practical skills on live horses under the watchful eyes of the experts.  Each attendee will be rotating through the following stations

• Echocardiography Stations 1 – 5 (= 5 hours)
• Acquisition and Interpretation of Exercising ECGs on live Horses
• Tissue Doppler Imaging Case-Discussions

The course fee includes lunches at a restaurant, coffee/tea breaks, a wine and cheese reception, extensive electronic course notes and a certificate of attendance. Attendees can choose to only attend the lectures (= Lectures Only) on this course or can register for the entire course (= Lectures and Practical Sessions).  Early course registration is recommended as there are only limited number of places available due to the highly practical nature of this course.
