Airway Disease

Performance horses especially racehorses frequently suffer from airway disease limiting their performance potential. At Kingsfield Equine we have a mobile endoscope that can be used to visualise the nasal passages, guttural pouches, larynx and trachea. 
The procedure can be performed at your yard and the horse may or may not also require sedation. A tracheal wash can be taken which will aid in the full diagnosis of airway disease. An endoscope is also useful in diagnosis and treatment of strangles outbreaks on yards to ensure all horses are in the “clear”. Please contact us for further information or to book in an endoscope examination.
