Course Objectives

• Understand the function and application of anaesthesia monitoring equipment

• Recognise an anaesthetic crisis and be able to act in an emergency

• Efficiently perform Initial triage and stabilisation of emergent patients

Value to Your Practice

Attending this workshop will enable vet nurses to increase their skills and confidence when administering anaesthesia and analgesia to everyday patients, from young and healthy animals to those compromised by disease, to emergency patients. The nurses will be taught the RECOVER CPR guidelines, the first true evidence-based CPR guidelines for vet professionals.
