Selected case reports will have the opportunity to be featured at BSAVA Congress 2024, allowing you to showcase your work and contribute to the wider veterinary nursing community.

Encouraging new voices

We welcome case reports from all veterinary nurses, especially those who haven't had the opportunity to lecture before. While this call is open to all, we particularly encourage individuals new to the lecture circuit.

Please submit a short synopsis of the case using the following outline:
- Introduction – to include the unique or interesting aspect
- Synopsis of the case – signalment, initial assessment, physical findings, intervention, patient care and recovery, final outcome.
- Discussion – focus on the specific nursing care and interventions
- Conclusion - the key nursing points that were learnt from the case, specialised skills and any specialized monitoring equipment used during the case.
Due to limited availability, all case reports will be assessed, and successful candidates will be chosen to present at BSAVA Congress 2024
Presentations will be limited to up to 8 minutes, and 2-3 minutes of questions, with the overall session lasting 10 minutes
Case report presentations will be evaluated by independent individuals, and an award will be given for the overall best case report. Evaluation guidelines will include the unique aspects of the case, presentation quality, ability to present within a time frame, and response to questions.
