This session will focus on oxygen therapy and on monitoring patients in respiratory distress.

Designed for veterinary professionals, this two-part program provides a practical approach to selecting oxygen delivery methods, optimizing oxygen therapy, and monitoring patient response.

Participants will learn:

Oxygen Therapy

• Common oxygen delivery methods, including their advantages and limitations

• How to select and optimize oxygen delivery based on patient needs

• Advanced oxygen delivery and respiratory support options

• Strategies to minimize patient stress and complications

Monitoring Respiratory Distress

• How to assess respiratory compromise using clinical examination and objective measures

• How to interpret pulse oximetry and blood gas results

• Limitations of common monitoring techniques

By the end of the bootcamp, participants will be better equipped to:

• Select appropriate oxygen delivery methods

• Assess oxygenation and ventilation
