Pre-anesthetic labwork
All pets undergoing anesthetic procedures should be screened with bloodwork prior to being anesthetized. Bloodwork can show us if there are pre-existing medical conditions which may make your pet a higher risk surgery patient. We can adjust our anesthetic and surgical protocols to ensure that your pet's unique conditions are accounted for before, during, and after surgery. The blood work gives us a baseline for future labwork in case your pet should become ill in the future.We use a vital signs monitor to keep your pet's blood pressure, body temperature, respiration, heart rate, and ECG measurements throughout the anesthetic procedure.
