AVA Autumn Meeting Bern 2022
The next AVA meeting will be held in Bern, Switzerland. Our world-renowned experts on pain have agreed to ponder the question: “What can we learn from animal models and humans to better understand and treat pain in veterinary patients?”
Our exciting program delves into the interpretation of translational research for veterinary medicine, including neuropathic pain, optogenetics, glycine and sodium channels, as well as assessment and treatment modalities.

ECVAA Webinar series on Locoregional Anaesthesia
Please, restrict the use of these webinars for education of Diplomates and Residents of the ECVAA.
- Knobs and needles by Angie Lloyd-Jones
The first in our webinar series covers the essentials of the ultrasound machine. Angie addresses how to optimise your image and talks you through the settings you need to understand. With tips on how best to see your needle tip, you will find this a really informative webinar.

- Hind Limb Nerve Blocks by Dr Eliseo Belda
In this ECVAA webinar Dr Belda reviews the current approaches to pelvic limb locoregional anaesthesia in dogs and cats. These sessions are designed for residents and supervisors alike and will give everyone an update on these techniques.

- Update on Epidural Techniques by Fernando Martinez-Taboada
Join Fernando in this webinar which reviews the epidural technique. We cover both the lumbosacral and the sacrococcygeal approach. With a review of anatomy and methods to determine successful placement, this is a valuable webinar for everyday anaesthesia practice.

- US-guided blocks of the thorax by Diego Portela
Blocks of the thorax are a relatively new area and we are lucky to welcome Diego Portela to share his experience of these valuable techniques. Diego will cover approaches to these blocks with a review of the relevant anatomy. This image shows a puppy undergoing ligation of the patent ductus arteriosus. Which technique would you choose for this case based on this webinar?

- Ultrasound-guided Nerve Blocks of the Abdomen and Spine by Pablo Otero
To compliment the previous webinar we have Pablo Otero joining us to present his experiences on these valuable techniques. Many of us would agree that the Erector Spine Plane block has changed our analgesic management of spinal surgery. Pablo covers the approaches required for a thoracolumbar versus a lumbar surgery which brings to life the descriptions you will find in the literature.

- US Guided Fore Limb Blocks by Jaime Viscasillas
In this webinar, Jaime reviews the techniques applicable to the thoracic limb. Jaime guides us through the evolution of techniques, looking at the anatomy of the nerves we are targeting and the different approaches we take to these nerves.

- US-Guided Equine Nerve Blocks by Luis Campoy
The increased desire to avoid general anaesthesia has led to a number of equine surgeries being performed standing. This increases our requirement for effective local anaesthetic techniques to provide excellent analgesia for these patients. Join Luis Campoy to understand which techniques are useful for certain surgeries.
