The article discusses the 59th Annual Convention of the American Association of Equine Practitioners (AAEP) that brought together various professionals in the field. The convention featured sessions on a variety of equine topics and showcased peer-reviewed articles representing original papers submitted for consideration at the convention.
Convention Overview
- The AAEP convention was a gathering of more than 6600 professionals in the equine field, including veterinarians, students, technicians, guests, and exhibitors. The convention offered opportunities for the attendees to learn through a range of sessions from large lectures to small group discussions.
Highlight: The Frank J. Milne State of the Art Presentation
- Dr Sue Dyson, a well-known orthopaedic specialist, led the Frank J. Milne State of the Art presentation. Her elaborate three-hour presentation included several videos and images along with summaries of her clinical work and research. Her focus was on the art and science of lameness evaluation.
Didactic Lectures and Sessions
- The convention divided didactic lectures into morning or afternoon sections. There were four sessions especially dedicated to business and practice management, ethics in equine practice, and a unique session called ‘Lessons Learned’ led by past AAEP presidents.
- The convention’s programme chair, Dr Jeff Blea, organized in-depth review sessions on topics like sports horse lameness, racing-related lameness, reproductive endocrinology, and geriatric medicine. Three ‘How To’ sessions provided practical tips on ophthalmology, performance horse radiology, and field anaesthesia.
New Information and Published Work
- Seven sessions of the convention were specially dedicated to new information. Over 70 papers, selected by the AAEP Educational Programmes Committee from hundreds submitted, were showcased in these sessions.
- For the third year in a row, the Equine Veterinary Journal (EVJ) published an online supplement to the AAEP proceedings. This supplement comprised several full-length, peer-reviewed articles that were originally submitted for consideration at the convention. Additionally, six articles from this supplement, as well as other selected information from the convention, were highlighted for their particular clinical relevance.
