Associate Professor University of Tennessee Knoxville, Tennessee, United States
Presentation Description / Summary: This session will explore the pharmacologic principles and clinical applications of alternative drug administration methods, including transdermal delivery, sustained-release systems, and other less common routes. Participants will also review the principles and practice of intravenous regional limb perfusion for analgesics and antimicrobials. Through case-based examples, clinicians will gain insight into the practical implementation of these methods in referral patient care, with emphasis on species-specific differences that influence drug selection and therapeutic outcomes.
Learning Objectives:
After this lecture clinicians will be familiar with the clinical pharmacologic principles of transdermal drug delivery, sustained-release systems, and other less common routes of drug administration.
The pharmacologic principles of intravenous regional limb perfusion for analgesics and antimicrobials will be reviewed.
Cases will be utilized to demonstrate the clinical applications of these methods for referral patient care.
Clinicians will also be familiarized with species-specific differences in these routes of administration.
