Pet Anesthesia Phoenix, AZ
As with humans, anesthesia is essential to many veterinary services to keep pets free of pain and fear during treatment. Our team at Westridge Animal Hospital regularly uses pet anesthesia for a wide range of procedures in Phoenix, AZ.
Why Anesthesia Is Important
During invasive procedures such as surgery or dental care, anesthesia is often necessary to keep pets calm and pain-free. Westridge Animal Hospital measures and controls anesthesia dosages in accordance with your pet’s condition and procedure.
Comprehensive Pre-Anesthetic Evaluation
Before administering any anesthesia, our veterinarians conduct a thorough pre-anesthetic evaluation to verify your pet is ready for anesthesia. This includes:
- Full physical examination
- Bloodwork to check for underlying conditions
- Reviewing your pet’s medical history
This assessment allows us to tailor anesthesia to your pet’s specific needs.
Advanced Monitoring During Anesthesia
While under anesthesia, your pet is closely monitored by our trained veterinary staff. We use modern monitoring equipment to track:
- Heart rate
- Blood pressure
- Oxygen levels
- Body temperature
This continuous monitoring ensures immediate intervention if needed.
Post-Anesthetic Care
After the procedure, your pet will be carefully monitored during the recovery process. Our team provides:
- Pain management
