The new ACVIM Endorsed Statement (AES) program is designed to gather the widest possible expert input into topics upon which to develop a consensus statement, systematic review or evidence-based practice guidelines. The ACVIM Forum offers a unique opportunity to convene this conversation in real-time, fostering dialogue among in person and virtual attendees, about the areas in which scholarly guidance to the community would have optimal value. The ACVIM Education and Research Committee (ERC), in partnership with members of the ACVIM Board of Regents and other stakeholders, have identified three possible topics for member consideration. They are: 

  1. Equine metabolic syndrome , including a possible collaboration with the Equine Endocrinology Groups (https://equineendocrinologygroup.org/ ) on their planned revision of their guidelines.

  2. Equine Gastric Ulcer Syndrome, drawing on the work published from the 2025 Havemeyer Research Foundation Symposium). 


This session will allow for input into the relative importance of these topics, as well as solicitation of other topics that should be considered. The panel will also provide an overview of the different AES statement types and share insights in how use of this framework has guided the ongoing development of a forthcoming consensus statement.

Learning Objectives:

  • Critique topics for an ACVIM Endorsed Statement (AES) for Large Animal Internal Medicine (LAIM) specialists.
  • Evaluate the difference among AES statement types and their distinct contributions to the body of knowledge for LAIM specialists.
  • Identify new topics for AES statements for future consideration.
