01 Seizures

Seizures are relatively common in cats and especially in dogs. In this inaugural podcast I discuss this presenting complaint with Dr Holger Volk who is Head of the Neurology & Neurosurgery service and Clinical Director of the Queen Mother Hospital for Animals.

Some of the things we talk about include definitions and classification of seizures, rational telephone advice, a general clinical approach and anti-convulsive medications. Oh, and "we will rock you!"
