As part of its development of new research and clinical
trials into equine musculoskeletal injuries and their management, ARC Microtech Ltd (ARC), the company which manufactures ArcEquine microcurrent units,
is to launch a major online survey evaluating tendon and ligament problems in
working horses and ponies.
 |
| Working horses and ponies incur a variety of tendon and ligament injuries during their careers. |
Running between April 24th and June 5th,
the survey will collect data from owners and riders with experience of tendon and
ligament injuries amongst equines in all disciplines. Respondents will be asked
about the incidence of these types of injuries, the mechanism of injury,
severity, diagnosis, treatments, long term management and the frequency of
re-injury.
ARC Director of Research & Development, Jack Thirkell
confirmed; “The data will be used to evaluate current treatment options and rehabilitation
protocols, together with supporting our work in developing and funding new
veterinary clinical trials, which will include more in-depth evaluation of the
use of ArcEquine microcurrent technology.
The survey will be available both on websites and social
media. Responses from owners and riders of working horses and ponies at every
level will be able to add their experiences to the bank of data collected. One
lucky respondent, drawn at random after the survey closes, will win an ArcEquine
complete kit.
