With the increasing number of pet owners, the demand for quality veterinary services is also experiencing strong growth. 67% of U.S. households, or about 85 million families, own a pet, according to the 2019-2020 National Pet Owners Survey conducted by the American Pet Products Association. Keeping up to date on the latest trends, breakthrough innovations and extraordinary advances that are transforming veterinary medicine can help you not only provide the best care for your patients but can also improve your practice’s bottom line.

Big data analytics are used to understand health risks and minimize the impact of adverse animal health issues. Artificial intelligence and other digital tools won’t replace a veterinarian,” “but they will replace a practitioner who doesn’t use them.” Today, information and data are being organized into actionable recommendations. In the clinic, for example, veterinarians can use electronic health record systems to monitor not only individual patients but also to uncover epidemiological trends within the data.

The use of wearable medical devices — GPS trackers, radio-frequency identification sensors, motion sensors, accelerometer sensors, Bluetooth, cameras, antennas and transmitters — shows no sign of slowing down as both pet owners and veterinarians embrace the technology they offer. These devices are not new, but due to their role in gathering significant amounts of data, they are having a profound impact on veterinary medicine. Initially, these devices were basic GPS or single-activity trackers and also these devices evolved to include activity tracking capabilities.  Some companies began developing “smart” collars that incorporated sensors to continuously monitor dogs or cats for vital health and behaviour attributes — body temperature, heart rate, respiration rate, pH levels and activity levels. The activity trackers moved away from this really basic, not well-defined tool in terms of diagnostics into the big data area.

The development of predictive biomarker tools is the area where big data is making its impact felt hat make it possible for clinicians to intervene earlier to manage disease in dogs and cats. Predictive biomarkers can be used to intervene even earlier because they show the probability of disease onset. There known to be six laboratory parameters that appeared to be the most important for identifying cats at high risk of chronic kidney disease (CKD) development. RenalTech is one of the technologies for the prediction of CKD earlier in cats.
