88 | Alabama rot in dogs: how to spot it quickly and care for your patients confidently

In this episode, we're chatting about a condition that's been on our radar for a few years now, and is both incredibly challenging and frustrating to manage - and that's cutaneous and renal glomerular vasculopathy, or as it's better known, Alabama rot. CRGV first appeared in the UK in 2012, and we've seen cases pop up every year since. It's difficult to predict, still poorly understood and comes with high morbidity and mortality rates. However, as nurses and technicians, we play a vital role in identifying it early, educating our clients, and supporting our patients throughout their hospitalisation. And we'll be chatting all about how to do just that throughout today's episode. --- Resources mentioned this episode: 📲 Alabama Rot information site & case tracker --- BRAND NEW ways to learn with me: 📲 Join the Medical Nursing Library Club 📲 Join me for the next live webinar: IV access 101, how to hit those tricky veins! --- More free ways to learn with me: 📲 Grab the show notes and references from today's episode 🖥️ Grab the free webinar, podcast AND resource library access 📲 Follow me on Instagram 🖥️ Learn more about medical nursing --- This podcast does not replace a veterinary surgeon's advice, and its content is provided only for information.
