CONTENT DESCRIPTION

Endotoxaemia and septicaemia remain among the most critical challenges in equine medicine, often determining ‘life or death’ outcomes in foals and adults alike. This interactive panel brings together leading clinicians and researchers to explore the latest insights into pathophysiology, early diagnosis, treatment strategies, and management of severe cases or those with concomitant issues. From fluid therapy and anti-endotoxic interventions to antimicrobial stewardship and emerging therapies, the discussion will address practical approaches to improve survival rates and case management. Participants will have the opportunity to pose questions and engage in debate on these complex and high-stakes conditions.

Celia M Marr graduated from the University of Glasgow in 1985 and her clinical career has focused on Cardiovascular Medicine, Internal Medicine, Intensive Care & Medical Imaging, and she has held positions in the University of Pennsylvania, University of Cambridge and the Royal Veterinary College and worked in racehorse practice in Lambourn. Currently, she is based at Rossdales Equine Hospital and Diagnostic Centre in Newmarket. Celia has published widely on medical disorders of the horse. She is a Diplomate of the European College of Equine Internal Medicine, Fellow of the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons, Honorary Member of British Equine Veterinary Association, Honorary Professor of the University of Glasgow and Editor-in-Chief of Equine Veterinary Journal..
