This cross-sectional study aimed to investigate horse carers' attitudes towards using AI use in equine care.Methods: An online survey was distributed to UK horse owners/carers in 2025, covering participants' demographics and use of AI and their opinions of AI for equine care. Statistical analysis included descriptive statistics, categorisation of free-text responses and logistic regression to determine factors associated with opinions.Results: Ninety-seven responses were analysed. Participants had a predominantly positive opinion of AI to automate large datasets for equine care, and a predominantly negative opinion for automating communications and medical decision making. Key categories identified in free-text responses were: AI use in general/equine care, desire for human interaction and AI as a supportive aid only. Positive attitudes towards AI for equine care were significantly associated with participants' opinions of AI in their own lives (odds ratio [OR]: 3.69, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 3.06‒4.45) and understanding of AI (OR: 1.31, 95% CI 1.03‒1.66).Limitations: This is a small exploratory study of horse owners/carers in the UK, and the findings may not be more widely generalisable.Conclusion: Horse owners/carers had mixed opinions on the use of AI in equine care, and their primary concern was around it replacing human decision making.","PeriodicalId":23560,"journal":{"name":"Veterinary Record","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2026-04-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147595346","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Within the job demands-resources (JD-R) framework, occupational stress represents a job demand linked to emotional exhaustion (EE), while transformational leadership (TL) may function as an organisational resource. However, the role of managerial TL behaviours in relation to occupational stress and EE in veterinary professionals remains underexplored.Methods: This exploratory cross-sectional online survey included registered UK veterinary surgeons and nurses. Participants completed validated measures of TL, perceived occupational stress (POS) and work-related EE. Data were analysed using correlation, regression and structural equation modelling (SEM).Results: POS was strongly positively correlated with EE (r = 0.70, p < 0.001), while TL was moderately negatively correlated with EE (r = -0.34, p < 0.001). Regression showed a non-significant direct effect of TL on EE (p = 0.068), while SEM confirmed a significant indirect effect via POS (β = -0.33, p < 0.001).Limitations: The cross-sectional design and unmeasured potential confounding variables limit causal inference and generalisability.Conclusion: TL may represent an organisational resource associated with lower EE, potentially via an indirect association with POS.","PeriodicalId":23560,"journal":{"name":"Veterinary Record","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2026-04-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147595197","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We investigated the associations between EMS choices and performance in the final-year 'livestock and One Health', 'equine' and 'small animal' written examinations.Methods: This retrospective cohort study utilised data from 639 students who took their final examinations between 2020 and 2024 at the University of Liverpool. The mark (%) and outcome (passed/failed) of each examination were analysed in separate regression models with the number of clinical EMS weeks in each discipline (farm animal/public health, equine, small animal or mixed practice) as explanatory variables. Overall pass rates were compared between students with and without balanced EMS, defined as 2 or more weeks in each species or 8 or more weeks in mixed practice.Results: An increased number of EMS weeks in the corresponding species or in mixed practice was associated with improved examination marks. Among students with weaker preclinical performance, those with balanced EMS experience were more likely to pass all their final examinations.Limitations: This study was conducted at a single UK veterinary school and relied on self-reporting of EMS type.Conclusion: Clinical EMS is associated with final-year examination performance, although causality cannot be inferred.","PeriodicalId":23560,"journal":{"name":"Veterinary Record","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2026-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147593945","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the frequency of this interprofessional collaboration has not been measured.Methods: A cross-sectional online survey, using the Nurse‒Physician Collaboration Scale to measure the frequency of the collaborative behaviours of joint decision making (JDM), cooperativeness (C) and sharing patient information (SPI), was administered to registered and student veterinary nurses. A multivariable logistic regression model was constructed for each behaviour construct.Results: Veterinary nurses (n = 835) self-reported collaboration with veterinarians at item level as either 'good' or 'mixed' (defined as a median item score ≤2 or >2‒3.5). Overall, the median (interquartile range) scores by collaborative behaviour construct were 2 (2‒3) for JDM, 2 (1‒3) for C and 2 (2‒3) for SPI. Multivariable analysis found that role and practice type were significantly associated with participants reporting good experiences in each behaviour construct.Limitations: The survey did not capture the perspectives of veterinarians for comparison.Conclusion: Collaboration between veterinary nurses and veterinarians is good, but improvements in all behaviour constructs could be made. Efforts should focus on improving communication and increasing the opportunities to mutually participate in patient care decision making.","PeriodicalId":23560,"journal":{"name":"Veterinary Record","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2026-03-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147575646","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
