In this episode of the Arthramid® In Practice podcast, Dr. Leigh de Clifford, Technical Service Veterinarian for Contura Vet, shares over 12 years of clinical experience using Arthramid 2.5% iPAAG in the management of equine osteoarthritis.

Dr. de Clifford walks through the practical, case-by-case decisions that veterinarians face when working with Arthramid, from patient selection criteria and diagnostic workup to injection technique, dosing considerations and post-administration management.

In this episode, you will learn:

How to identify the right candidates for Arthramid treatment, including what clinical signs and imaging findings to look for

Why early intervention in the disease process can lead to quicker, stronger and longer-lasting outcomes

Practical injection tips, including the use of a 21-gauge needle as a placement confirmation tool and how ultrasonography can support accurate delivery, particularly in stifle joints

When it may be appropriate to use Arthramid alongside other therapies such as NSAIDs or corticosteroids, and when to use it exclusively

What to expect post-administration, including recommended rest protocols and timelines for return to work

How to approach repeat dosing, with independent data supporting safe use of multiple injections over a horse's career spanning up to 12 to 13 years

How to recognize and manage the rare occurrence of a joint flare, and why aggressive arthroscopic flushing should be avoided

Dr. de Clifford also addresses common mistakes practitioners encounter, the safety profile he has observed over more than a decade of clinical use, and how GMP-certified manufacturing and the product's parallel use in human medicine reinforce confidence in its reliability.

Whether you are new to using Arthramid or looking to refine your approach, this episode is packed with practical insight you can take straight into clinic.
