Episode 114 – Hyperactivity – HSHA - Hyperkinesis   This is quite a big episode and a very interesting topic - definitely one that I am hearing more conversations and questions about. In this episode, I will talk about the "classification" of hyperactivity – what it is, what it is not, the differential diagnoses that need to be considered before declaring a diagnosis of hyperactivity or hyperkinesis and how to actually narrow down that diagnosis.   I talk about a wonderful document that was designed by Dr Karen Overall and her team, which addresses some of the differential diagnoses and their corresponding behavioural signs  - see the document here: https://vth.upei.ca/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/Behaviour-Tips_Active-dogs_final.pdf   And, I discuss treatment protocols and psychopharmacological interventions that can be used to help these patients. Please see here the paper by Dr Stephane Bleuer-Elsner that I mention in the podcast: Bleuer-Elsner, S., Muller, G., Beata, C., Zamansky, A. and Marlois, N., 2021. Effect of fluoxetine at a dosage of 2-4 mg/kg daily in dogs exhibiting hypersensitivity-hyperactivity syndrome, a retrospective study. Journal of Veterinary Behavior, 44, pp.25-31.   If you would like additional support for one of your Behaviour Cases, then you can book a 30-minute Vet-Vet or Vet-Pet Care Professional Consultation with me right here: https://calendly.com/trinityvet/teams-and-professionals If you can't find an appointment time to suit you, please email us at [email protected] to find a time that suits us both!   If you'd like some amazing Client Handouts or Professional Guides and Cheat sheets, then check out our amazing E-Books here: https://katrin-jahn.mykajabi.com/trinity-ebook   And… if you would like to learn more about the wonderful world of Veterinary Psychopharmacology, then my PSYCHOACTIVE course is the course for you! https://katrin-jahn.mykajabi.com/psychoactive   If you liked this episode of the show, Veterinary Behaviour Chat, please LEAVE A 5-STAR REVIEW, like, share, and subscribe!   Facebook Group: Join The Veterinary Behaviour Community on Facebook   You can CONNECT with me: Website: Visit my website Trinity Veterinary Behaviour Instagram: Follow Trinity Veterinary Behaviour on Instagram Trinity Veterinary Behaviour Facebook: Join us on Trinity Veterinary Behaviour's Facebook page Trinity Veterinary Behaviour YouTube: Subscribe to Trinity Veterinary Behaviour on YouTube LinkedIn Profile: Connect with me on LinkedIn   Thank you for tuning in!
