Online Lecture – Pass the Salt Please – Practical Recommendations for Electrolyte use in Sport Horses (Recorded September 2020)
LEARNING OBJECTIVE
To understand current knowledge about electrolyte supplementation in sport horses, including potential benefits as well as adverse effects, and to become more critical in evaluating commercial electrolyte supplements.
CONTENT DESCRIPTION
American Specialist in Equine Internal Medicine Dr Hal Schott reviews the use of electrolytes in sports horses with particular emphasis on potential benefits and also possible adverse effects. His aim is to enable clinicians and horse owners to become more critical in evaluating commercial electrolyte supplements and to know how, why, where and when to use them.
Dr. Hal Schott earned a bachelor’s degree from Cornell in 1980 and a DVM from the Ohio State University in 1984. He worked in a private equine practice in Santa Barbara, Calif., from 1984 to 1987 and followed that with a residency and PhD program at Washington State University from 1987 to 1991. He was on the WSU faculty from 1991 to 1995 as an instructor and then an assistant professor of equine internal medicine. In 1995, he came to Michigan State University as an assistant professor and progressed to associate and then full professor. He is a Diplomate of the American College of Veterinary Internal Medicine.
His clinical interests include all types of urinary tract disease in horses, and his research focuses on fluid and electrolyte physiology, especially with prolonged endurance exercise.
