If you've ever seen an older Labrador struggling to breathe, a Retriever making that distinctive “roaring” noise, or an older dog with noisy breathing and vocal changes, there's a good chance you've encountered laryngeal paralysis. This disease - as the name suggests - affects the larynx, preventing it from opening properly and restricting airflow. In mild cases, it causes noisy breathing and exercise intolerance, but in severe cases, it leads to life-threatening respiratory obstruction. But what else do we need to know about laryngeal paralysis? How can we stabilise these patients in an emergency, treat them effectively, and provide that all-important nursing care? That's exactly what we're covering in episode 64 of the Medical Nursing Podcast. --- Resources mentioned in this episode:

Public Service Announcement: Guides, outfitters, freelancers--everyone--traveling to hunt outside the United States need to be aware that new Center for Disease Control (CDC) rules change the requirements for importing your retriever back into the United States! Canada's the biggie. If you are bringing a dog to the U.S., starting on August 1, 2024, there are new steps you need to take. These steps depend on where your dog has been in the past 6 months. Ira McCauley explains requirements (as of July 20, 2024) and what you need to know to prepare for the upcoming season.   Related Links: CDC Website Bringing A Dog Into the U.S.  https://www.cdc.gov/importation/dogs/index.html  Special Note-- there has been tremendous public and political backlash these new insane requirements.
