Rabbit anaesthesia has a bad reputation for being difficult, stressful and often going wrong! However, with the right knowledge this no longer has to be the case!
The aim of this series is to give delegates the up to date knowledge & confidence to make safer and more appropriate choices when planning and undertaking rabbit anaesthesia.
This series with Ivan Crotaz from LagoLearn will cover top tips for a smoother GA and will look closer at airway management techniques including positioning, intubation and monitoring options.
It will also discuss the holistic approach to anaesthesia, which involves looking deeper into the patient’s health and husbandry directly before and after anaesthesia.
