Read this case report from Tufts Cummings School of Veterinary Medicine’s Henry and Lois Foster Hospital for Small Animals to learn how a canine patient who ate a lethal dose of ibuprofen was able to walk out and greet his owner following an 80-minute hemoperfusion treatment.
Read this case report from UC Veterinary Medical Center, San Diego to learn how a canine patient who ate 2 bottles worth of ibuprofen (20,000 mg) was up and walking after a 6-hour hemoperfusion treatment.
Watch this on-demand webinar to get insights from a recent case in which hemoperfusion was successfully used to treat a massive ibuprofen overdose.
Ibuprofen overdose is common in small animal medicine. While mild cases can often be treated using standard medical management, more severe cases may benefit from the use of extracorporeal therapies (ECTs) such as hemoperfusion.
In this webinar, Emmanuelle Butty, med.vet., DACVIM (SAIM), will share insights from a case where she successfully used hemoperfusion to treat a massive ibuprofen overdose. Dr. Butty will discuss case insights, including the decision to use hemoperfusion and an analysis of its effectiveness.
Watch this on-demand webinar to get an in-depth view of how carbon-based hemoperfusion technology works to efficiently, effectively, and safely filter toxins from blood.
Blood filtration technology has advanced significantly in recent years. In veterinary medicine, carbon-based hemoperfusion has emerged as an advanced treatment method for severe toxicities, able to efficiently, effectively, and safely filter even high levels of toxins from blood.
Watch this webinar to get an in-depth view of how carbon-based hemoperfusion technology works. Focusing on the physics of adsorption, attendees will learn about the unique characteristics of synthetically derived activated carbon that make it highly suitable for blood filtration and how they translate into clinical use.
Key Talking Points Include:
Read this case report from Colorado Animal Specialty & Emergency to learn how a canine patient suspected of ingesting at least 10,000 mg of ibuprofen was treated with hemoperfusion and made a full recovery following minimal hospitalization.
In this webinar, learn how a Brittany with a baclofen overdose was successfully treated using hemoperfusion.
While not as commonly ingested by companion animals as other medications, baclofen is highly potent and even a small amount of the drug can cause severe toxicity.1 It is also rapidly absorbed into the blood, and the half-life is thought to increase substantially in cases of overdose.2 Hemoperfusion, an extracorporeal treatment that filters toxins from the blood, is a novel treatment option that may be beneficial for patients with severe baclofen toxicities
In this webinar, Dr. Joanna Finstad, DVM, MS, DACVECC shares a hemoperfusion case report featuring the successful treatment of a Brittany with a baclofen overdose. Dr. Finstad also reviews basic baclofen pharmacokinetics, clinical signs of overdose, and treatment options, including when and why hemoperfusion should be considered for managing these patients.

Download this free eBook now and learn how a novel technology is providing more options for treating severely poisoned patients.
From ibuprofen to fluorouracil, there are unlimited ways for poisoning to occur in pets. The standard of care for severe poisoning primarily relies on symptom management and supportive care, with many cases resulting in long-term organ dysfunction or euthanasia. Extracorporeal treatments (whether performed in-house or by referral) work by directly removing toxins from circulation to reverse overdose and prevent organ injury, often resulting in better outcomes – for the patient, client and practice.
In this eBook, we will explore 3 different types of extracorporeal treatments and considerations for use.
Included in this eBook:
In this webinar, learn more about the three main ECTs used to treat small animal toxicities: hemoperfusion, hemodialysis, and therapeutic plasma exchange.
Extracorporeal therapies (ECTs) offer a fast and effective treatment option for many toxicities commonly seen in small animal hospitals. Compared to traditional medical management that focuses on limiting further absorption and providing supportive care, ECTs remove toxins that have already entered the system by filtering them out of the blood, minimizing long-term damage and allowing the patient to recover faster.
In this free webinar, learn more about the three main ECTs used to treat small animal toxicities: hemoperfusion, hemodialysis, and therapeutic plasma exchange. Practical considerations for each therapy, indications for use, efficacy, expense, and overall accessibility will be discussed.
