A consensus conference is a procedure to establish medical standards or clinical practice guidelines in all cases were there is uncertainty, controversy or logical inconsistencies. In terms of curative and preventive therapies for mastitis, veterinary practitioners repeatedly ask themselves the same questions: to treat or not to treat, with what, how should the different problems brought on by mastitis therapy be addressed - animal health, public health, economic issue? The French SNGTV (National Society of Veterinary Technical Groupings) have adopted a methodology to answer these questions, review the current state of the profession and knowledge as well as provide help in deciding on to implement mastitis therapy. A panel of European experts in the field of mastitis was queried to provide answers to questions raised by veterinarians on the diagnosis (epidemiological, bacteriological, etc.), the routes of administration, the treatment of subclinical and peracute mastitis in addition to the overall treatment strategy. After having drafted a critical bibliography on the aforementioned themes, the experts explained the outcomes of their research in a report. During the conference meeting, a debate on the questions raised and the answers provided took place among the experts and a group of vet practitioners representative of their French colleagues. After reviewing the consensus conference methodology, this article reports on the primary contributions that the conference made to help veterinarian practitioners manage mastitis therapy better.
