On-Demand Webinar: Extracorporeal Therapies and Toxin Removal – Beyond Dialysis
Listen to Jethro Forbes, DVM, DACVECC share his experience and insights on using ECTs to treat toxicities.
Extracorporeal blood purification is an emerging treatment for acute toxicity. Extracorporeal treatments (including hemodialysis, hemofiltration, therapeutic plasma exchange, and hemoperfusion) are gaining traction for their ability to improve outcomes and reduce long-term organ damage in severely poisoned patients, while also providing a cost-effective alternative to prolonged hospitalization.
In this webinar, Jethro Forbes, DVM, DACVECC (Assistant Clinical Professor, Section of Emergency and Critical Care at Cornell University) shares clinical insights into when and how to use extracorporeal therapies (ECT). He discusses decision-making strategies for selecting the right approach and best practices for utilizing (or referring patients for) this treatment.
Key topics explored:
- When to consider extracorporeal therapy (ECT)
