The anaesthesia period has four different phases: pre anaesthesia, induction, maintenance, and recovery, with the veterinary nurse monitoring the patient throughout. Each monitoring parameter can be thought of as a piece of a puzzle. This learning series with Niamh Clancy will help you to understand the information each one is giving you so you can fit all the information together to obtain the bigger picture.
Not only is every patient different, but different drugs also produce different effects, and these can also vary depending on numerous other contributing factors – so no two cases will ever be the same.
