Episode Synopsis

Host Katie Berlin, DVM, feels her blood pressure spike just thinking about pilling her spicy cat, whereas guest Grant Beckett, BVSc, MRCVS, relaxes by sharing a moment outdoors with his sweet cat LeiLani. Dr. Grant shares how he approaches blood pressure monitoring and management in feline patients, including an overview of the RAAS (trust us—it’s never sounded so good!) and what he considers to be the gold standard for treating hypertension in cats, which, to Dr. Katie’s relief, does not involve a pill at all.Resources:ACVIM consensus statement: https://doi.org/10.1111/jvim.15331https://icatcare.org/veterinary/resourceshttps://www.semintra.com/?cid=cliniciansbrief:podcast:consideration:semintraprofessionalmedia:customContact us:[email protected] to find us:Cliniciansbrief.com/podcastsFacebook.com/clinciansbriefTwitter: @cliniciansbriefInstagram: @clinicians.briefThe Team:Katie Berlin, DVM - HostAlexis Ussery - Producer & Digital Content CoordinatorRandall Stupka - Podcast Production & Sound Editing
