Vets Called Upon To Aid CKD Survey
Veterinary practices across the UK are being called upon to recruit owners of cats with chronic kidney disease (CKD) to complete an online survey. It is hoped the study will shed light on both owner experiences of managing the condition and the use of phosphate binders.
The survey is 35 questions long and should take roughly 15 to 20 minutes. Owners of all cats with the condition are eligible to participate, regardless of the way in which their cat's illness is being treated.
If there is sufficient data, the study will be published in veterinary and owner magazines.
To recruit your practice to this study, fax or call 0131 440 9029.
Two independent vets have launched a podcast to help owners strengthen their bond with pets. Dr Maggie Roberts and Dr Vanessa Howie, who have worked in both veterinary practice and major charities, are keen to use their experience to enable people to give pets a better life.
