Heart rate: the horse athlete’s health asset
Horses are top-level athletes. To maximise its performance while preserving its health, it is essential to understand the various aspects of its physiology. Among these, heart rate plays a fundamental role: it provides an insight into the efficiency of the heart function and the athlete’s overall state of health.
Equine athletes: how nutrition boosts their performance
Behind the performance of equine athletes lies an essential element that contributes to their success: nutrition. It plays a vital role in developing and maintaining performance, and these athletes require a balanced diet specifically adapted to their physiological and energy needs. As a result, a horse’s diet has a significant impact on its physical condition, endurance, recovery and general health.
Mounted veterinary exam: how to assess the health of working horses?
The mounted veterinary examination plays an essential role in assessing the health and well-being of equine athletes. Among other things, it helps to ensure that horses are in optimum physical condition and to prevent potential health problems. As a complement to conventional medicine, these examinations enable vets to assess the overall health of the horse during its activity, focusing on locomotion, breathing, the cardiovascular and musculoskeletal systems.
Horse rehabilitation protocol: data-driven adaptation
The rehabilitation protocol is an integral part of a sport horse’s life, as it is exposed to many physical and athletic efforts. These demands sometimes result in injuries affecting health, well-being and performance. Treatment must then be provided, requiring a rehabilitation protocol to optimize the horse’s return to work.
Personalised support: Arioneo’s Data Success Manager
Today, data plays an essential role in making informed business decisions. Companies collect and generate massive amounts of data, but transforming that data into actionable insights and tangible results is often a major challenge. That’s where Data Success Managers (DSMs) come in – professionals who are in control of the data and responsible for maximising its value.
Muscular contractures in athletic horses: management and prevention through technology
Muscle contractures in sport horses are a major concern for owners and equine health professionals. These muscle problems can have a significant impact on a horse’s sporting performance and well-being.
However, thanks to advances in equine health technology, we now have innovative solutions to better manage and prevent muscle contractures.
Sport horse health monitoring: where to start?
The health of the sport horse can be compared to that of a top level human athlete, which requires medical monitoring and adapted sports training. The implementation of good practices prior to the horse’s physical training is an essential step, which is then followed by a follow-up of its work.
Exercise ECG: how and why work with it?
Exercise ECG is an examination that records the electrical activity of the heart during training. It allows the analyse and control of the horse’s heart rhythm through an electrical curve of the heart activity. Often used at rest, it allows different analyses to be made during exercise, enabling a more accurate diagnosis.
Polysaccharide storage myopathies – or PSSMs
Polysaccharide storage myopathies – or PSSMs – are rare but serious equine metabolic disorders. They are caused by an abnormal accumulation of glycogen, a complex sugar that serves as an energy source for muscle cells.
This build-up can have serious consequences for horses’ health, including as muscular weakening, discomfort, cramps, rapid weariness, and even damage to muscles.
