STABILIZATION WORKSHOP: BANDAGING TECHNIQUES AND CLINICAL APPLICATIONS

Appropriate bandage application is a crucial component of successful treatment in trauma and orthopedic cases. However, in daily clinical practice, bandaging techniques are often applied inconsistently, and uncertainty may arise regarding the most suitable method for specific clinical situations.

This workshop will provide a step-by-step overview of both fundamental and advanced bandaging techniques commonly used in small animal orthopedic and soft tissue conditions. Participants will learn the indications for different bandage types, correct application principles, and strategies to prevent complications, enabling them to confidently apply these techniques in clinical practice.

Through an interactive format that combines theoretical knowledge with hands-on training, the workshop will be built around real clinical scenarios, encouraging active participation and practical learning.
