Whilst we try to avoid unnecessary procedures, sometimes surgery is needed to alleviate pain or improve your pet's quality of life. Older pets and pets with various medical issues have an increased risk with anaesthesia. With the right team, the risk of an anaesthetic can be reduced.
At Melbourne EyeVet, we take anaesthesia very seriously. Whilst the majority of patients have routine uncomplicated anaesthetics, some patients need specialist care. In such cases, we ask the help of specialist anaesthetists.
Please let us know if you have any concerns about your pets anaesthetic.
Anaesthesia care does NOT stop after the procedure is over. Ongoing monitoring of heart rate, respiratory rate, temperature, blood glucose and fluid therapy are essential for fast and safe patient recovery.
