  • Love the show, audio could be better

    I am a hands-on horse owner and I love this podcast because it is easy for me as a layperson to follow along and absorb the wealth of information. If I could offer a suggestion for improvement, it could be to improve the quality of the audio in general.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Ep. 187: Diagnosing and Managing Gastric Ulcers with Dr. Chelsea Luedke
Q: How do you differentiate and treat squamous versus glandular ulcers, and what about those horses with both?
Squamous ulcers are treated with proton pump inhibitors like GastroGuard for 28 days or longer depending on depth and healing, while glandular disease may require prostaglandin analogs and sometimes sucralfate; in horses with both, you address both mucosal areas and re-scope to monitor healing, recognizing the need to consider systemic factors.
Ep. 187: Diagnosing and Managing Gastric Ulcers with Dr. Chelsea Luedke
Q: To get us started, what is the current evidence tell us about the prevalence of gastric ulcers in horses?
Prevalence is high in horses under intense work, like racehorses and high-level sport horses, with glandular disease also present; overall, prevalence can be substantial depending on discipline and management, with higher risk in actively training or competing animals and lower risk in horses with consistent turnout and forage access.
Ep. 186: Managing Strangles Outbreaks with Dr. Ashley Boyle
Q: How do you approach testing after a case is confirmed to determine when an outbreak is over?
Testing should include nasal pharyngeal washes and guttural pouch sampling when feasible, with repeated testing to account for intermittent shedding, and relying on guttural pouch endoscopy as the most definitive check for non-shedding status.
Ep. 186: Managing Strangles Outbreaks with Dr. Ashley Boyle
Q: What would your approach be to managing some of these confirmed positive cases?
Treatment should be selective and welfare-driven; antibiotics are used for animals not eating well or with complications, and supportive care is emphasized, including maneuvering to reduce fever and maintain nutrition, while avoiding blanket antibiotic use that may prolong disease.
Ep. 184: New World Screwworm Updates with Dr. Courtney Mangano
Q: What misconceptions should veterinarians address about this outbreak?
Owners online may think this is regular fly strike; professionals should explain the distinction, stressing that New World Screwworm involves living tissue and requires investigation and reporting rather than assuming it is common fly strike.
