Abstract / Description of output

The Companion Animal Fecal Microbiota Transplantation (FMT) Consortium is an international group of veterinary experts that are currently performing FMT in dogs and cats. Based on available evidence and expert opinions, the Companion Animal FMT Consortium developed the first clinical guidelines for FMT in companion animals aimed at increasing the accessibility of this microbial-directed therapeutic in veterinary medicine. These clinical guidelines include recommendations and protocols for fecal donor screening, FMT product processing and preparation, and current FMT clinical indications and administration. These clinical guidelines are intended to be utilized by veterinarians in all practice types.
