Overview
The webinar will start with a brief reminder of the epidemiology and pathogenesis of PPID with updates from the 4th Global Endocrine Symposium. Nicola will then discuss the most appropriate diagnosis methods, and question if we should be testing for insulin dysregulation. Treatment and other medical management methods, including diet, will be covered. Nicola will also discuss tips and tricks to maximise the treatment outcomes and the challenges of medicating chronic cases. Monitoring and prognosis of animals with PPID will also be discussed. There will be an opportunity to ask questions, which Nicola will answer as many as possible at the end.
