Many, many dogs and cats undergo general anaesthesia daily around the world. It is such a common intervention that being prepared and confident is vital and knowing how to maximise safety essential. In this podcast featuring Ian Self we discuss aspects such as patient assessment, preparation, induction, maintenance and recovery. We also touch on what the published data about peri-anaesthetic mortality is for dogs and cats. Ian is Head of the QMHA Anaesthesia and Analgesia service and a Lecturer in Anaesthesia.
