Anesthesia / Surgery Consent Form

Your pet will be undergoing general anesthesia plus a surgical procedure today. In order to recognize any underlying abnormalities your pet may have, we have already performed a complete blood profile.

We require placement of an IV catheter to administer fluids while under anesthesia. IV fluids will aid the body in stabilizing internal organs, stabilizing blood pressure, and flushing the anesthesia out of the body more efficiently. Along with shaving the hair at the IV catheter site, we may also shave other areas including the surgical site for surgical prepping and cleansing, and also the monitor sites, so they will function properly.
