The Joint Health Management Program
Osteoarthritis is a leading cause of joint dysfunction in horses. Acute injury and overuse can lead to chronic joint pain. Boehringer Ingelheim Vetmedica, Inc. (BIVI), has developed the equine Joint Health Management (JHM) program, an education program for veterinarians and horse owners to help prevent and treat equine joint problems.
BIVI has formed the JHM program in collaboration with Dr. David Frisbie, DVM, PhD, Diplomate ACVS, who is an associate professor at Colorado State University and part of their Equine Orthopedic Research Center, as well as a partner in Equine Sports Medicine PLLC, Pilot Point, Texas. The goal of this collaboration is to provide an educational series to help veterinarians and horse owners not only prevent joint problems in horses but also treat existing problems.
