ZooMed (exotic) CPR can be a topic for debate and certainly an anxiety trigger. Should one do chest compressions in birds even with the keel bone? How does one do cardiac massage in a tortoise? How often does one ventilate a rabbit? These unique patients present unique anatomy and physiology which directly impact CPR guidelines. Attendees will be presented with the step-by-step CPR for ZooMed pets, including basic and advanced life support.

Learning Objectives:

Learn compression techniques during ZooMed CPR
Learn ventilation techniques during ZooMed CPR

Learn advance life support techniques during ZooMed CPR
