Do you use rivaroxaban? Do you want to know more about using rivaroxaban? Or even apixaban? In this podcast we discuss both anticoagulant drugs with study authors Alex Lynch and Rob Goggs. I learnt plenty and I hope you will too! We also recorded a ‘burning questions on thromboprophylaxis’ podcast that will be out very soon, so keep an eye out for that too! You can also find the podcasts on the www.vetlit.org/podcast page itself. In this episode we cover: The background to the use of oral anticoagulants A brief tour of pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics. The biological effect of both drugs, when it happens and the concept of rebound hypercoagulability after drug withdrawal.

Educating owners on antimicrobial stewardship with Emma Wright and Fergus Allerton

Season 1 · Episode 4

Tuesday, February 11, 2025 • Duration 18:48

In this podcast we discuss the impact of a short video to teach owners about antimicrobial stewardship. Chris Scudder talks to authors Emma Wright and Fergus Allerton about their study entitled “Influencing attitudes towards antimicrobial use and resistance in companion animals—the impact on pet owners of a short animation in a randomized controlled trial.” If you’d like to use the video in your practice waiting room, it’s available here and has been translated into 20 languages. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4ApEAfN4dWU) The study itself documented positive effects on owner awareness relating to antimicrobial stewardship, using a common scenario of acute onset diarrhoea as the case example. It re-affirms the importance of owner education and sets the scene for more resources with similar aims and measurable outcomes.
