VASTA Romania & Bulgaria

14/08/2026

For 19 years we've been teaching veterinary anaesthesia across seven countries.
Everything lived in scattered places — different pages, different forms, information you had to hunt for.

That's over.

Everything's now in one place. Seven countries. Eleven teachers. Six modules. One home.

Come take a look.

VASTA HOT TOPICS FREE WEBINAR - " The Painful Pancreas"
Pancreatitis pain is easy to underestimate and hard to control, especially acute pancreatitis can keep you sleepless. When the patient is just quiet, hunched, and off their food, how do you know it's pain - and how do you treat it without losing sight of the whole patient?
Join us for a 45-minute live expert round table. No slides, no lectures — just three experienced clinicians talking through how they actually recognise, treat, and reassess pain in pancreatitis.
What we'll cover:
What kind of pain pancreatitis really
causes — and why it's so easy to miss
• Building a
multimodal plan without wrecking gut function and perfusion • Where locoregional techniques (the quadratus lumborum block) could fit
¿ Dr. Olivia d'Anselme • Dr. Marta Kantyka • Dr. Miguel

Thank you to the 90+ veterinarians, nurses and technicians from across Poland, Greece, Romania Switzerland and Asia who joined us live yesterday for our Hot Topic Session — "The Cut Under Pressure: C-Section Peculiarities and Anaesthesia for the Caesarean Patient." 🐾

A caesarean is one of the few procedures where a single anaesthetic has to keep several patients safe at once. Almost every drug given to the mother crosses the placenta and reaches the neonates within minutes — so the whole plan is built around drugs that are short-acting and reversible, timing them carefully around delivery, and keeping the interval between induction and delivery as short as possible. And when a newborn is slow to start, a clear airway, warmth, gentle stimulation and — where opioids are involved — a single drop of naloxone under the tongue can make all the difference.

If you couldn't make it live, or you'd like to watch it again, the full recording is available here: 👉 https://zoom.us/clips/share/emgPLwVkSV6SSgYETEW5UA

Our webinars are now a monthly series — follow us so you don't miss the next one, and if there's an anaesthesia or pain-management topic you'd like us to cover, tell us in the comments. 💛

TIVA or TCI? Same drugs — very different control. 💉

Swipe through a quick, science-first tour of intravenous anaesthesia in dogs & cats: what TIVA and TCI actually are, why TCI is "TIVA with tighter control," what makes propofol so well-suited to it, how balanced CRIs cover pain on several fronts — and how IV anaesthesia stacks up against inhalational agents (including a much smaller carbon footprint 🌍).

No TCI pump? Slide 5 has you covered.

Want the hands-on version? Enzo Minghella (Dipl. ECVAA) brings TCI to life with two lectures + a live "TCI workshop cases" session at the VASTA In-Person Congress — 10–11 October 2026, Łódź, Poland. Lectures in English with live Polish translation. Seats are strictly limited.

Missed yesterday's webinar?
We learned so much from Dr. Valentina Carrozzo about recognising dental pain in cats — including the one we'll never un-see: when a cat overgrooms her paw, the problem is often in its mouth. Owner thinks it's skin. Vet treats fleas. Months go by.
Snippet above. Full recording on the way.
