Abstract

The Supervised Curricular Internship in Veterinary Medicine (ECSMV) is a mandatory component of the curriculum for the course and is carried out in the tenth and final semester. This report aims to describe all the activities observed and/or developed during the ECSMV, which focused on equine reproduction and neonatology under the guidance of Professor Dr. Marcos da Silva Azevedo. The internship took place at Fazenda Santa Rita II, located in Piracaia, São Paulo, Brazil, under the supervision of Veterinarian Maria Augusta Alonso. The ECSMV was conducted from March 1st to June 2nd, 2023, totaling 520 hours. Among all the activities observed, notable ones include follicular control, embryo transfer, pregnancy diagnosis, gestational monitoring, assisted foaling, and neonate management in the early days of life. Among the various activities observed, the chosen topics for discussion are ovulation induction in mares, foaling assistance, and neonate care in the first hours of life. The chosen location for the ECSMV allowed for experience not only in techniques but also in property management, animal care, and teamwork. The ECSMV was essential in combining the theoretical and practical knowledge acquired during the degree with field-applied veterinary medicine, refining and advancing professional and personal knowledge.
