Anesthesia Safety
We are committed to ensuring the safety and comfort of your pet during surgical procedures. To achieve this, we implement the following protocols:
- Placing an IV catheter to maintain hydration, regulate blood pressure, and administer medications efficiently.
- Comprehensive monitoring equipment to track vital signs such as heart rate, respiration, temperature, oxygen levels, and carbon dioxide.
- A dedicated surgical technician who monitors your pet throughout surgery and recovery.
- Pain relief is provided before, during, and after surgery to minimize discomfort.
Post-Surgical Care
Following surgery, your pet will need rest and care for a smooth recovery. While we’ll provide specific post-op instructions, here are general guidelines to minimize stress and discomfort:
- Recovery from Anesthesia: Keep your pet in a quiet, confined space, away from other pets, as they may be groggy.
- Hydration and Nutrition: Provide fresh water and half the amount of regular meals. A decreased appetite in the first 24 hours is normal.
- Pain Management: Follow the prescribed pain medication instructions. Do not use human pain relievers.
- Incision Monitoring: Check the surgical site for signs of infection or irritation. Contact us if you have concerns.
- Activity Restrictions: Limit activity for the first 10 days or as directed to avoid strain on the surgical site.
- Additional Support: Ask your veterinarian about integrative pain management options like laser therapy or acupuncture.
