Abstract
Otitis externa represents a very large proportion of the cases in small animal practice. As practice clinics become increasingly busy veterinary nurses can be utilised to play an essential role in the management of these cases. This article is a brief overview of how to approach otitis externa to improve patient care, speed recovery and reduce the risk of re-occurrence, including the role veterinary nurses can play in the diagnosis and management of otitis externa. This article will discuss the importance of cytology, bacterial cultures, examination of the ear canal and ear cleaning/flushing.
