New Orleans-

The International Veterinary Emergency and Critical Care Symposium (IVECCS) is readying for a Sept. 9-13 meeting that promises to save lives.

According to conference organizer Dr. Gary Stamp, of the Veterinary Emergencyand Critical Care Society (VECCS), "We present continuing educationthat saves lives. We want to raise the level of patient care for the acutelyor seriously ill."

To accomplish the goal, the small animal and equine program is packedwith lectures and hands-on practical laboratories on all the issues facedby emergency and critical care veterinarians and technicians.

This year's program has expanded its "limited enrollment" sessionsto 50, Stamp says, which are small laboratories and seminars covering manytopic areas. "People really have a chance to receive some very individualizedinstruction," Stamp explains.
