NAVLE® Question of the day

A couple of days ago a client brought an 18-month-old filly home from a "kill pen" (was headed for Mexico for slaughter). She just sent you photos of the horse showing thick bilateral mucopurulent nasal discharge and a swollen throat latch. She says that the horse’s breathing is stertorous and loud.

You are on your way to see the horse, thinking you will need to do an emergency tracheotomy first thing.

What are additional preliminary recommendations based on the top differential?
