What is a seizure? What does a seizure look like? What are the most common causes of seizures? How do we treat each one?
There are a lot of questions around this, so neurosurgeon Dr. Ane Uriarte is here to answer them!
Dr. Ane Uriarte Dip ECVN MRCVS DVM is a neurosurgeon and neurologist who treats neurological conditions in dogs, cats, and other animals at Foster Hospital for Small Animals.
First, we are breaking down the difference between a seizure and a fainting episode because they are very commonly confused.
Then we are talking about Dr. Uriarte's app that not only helps owners keep track of their dogs medications but it keeps track of their dog seizures and allows owners to get their dog seizures on video. It is also being used for research purposes so we are able to learn more about epilepsy in dogs.
At the end of the episode, we talk about how she recently repurposed a surgical technique which relieves pain fromChiari-like Malformationin dogs.
Whether your dog has seizures or you want to know the signs, tune in to this episode.
