Treatment Response for Equine Fungal Endometritis

This study aims to evaluate treatment response in relation to the resistance patterns of the fungal agents to antifungal drugs.

Eligibility: Any mare diagnosed with a fungal uterine infection

Compensation: A fungal culture and susceptibility will be run free of charge

Owner Responsibilities: Follow the treatment regimen recommended by your veterinarian.

Principal Investigator: Dr. Soon Hon Cheong, DVM, PhD
