Anaesthetic Patient Monitoring

Whilst our patients are anesthetised it is essential that they are closely monitored in order to maximise safety. VetDentist has invested in state-of-the-art monitors to help keep a track on patients’ heart beats, ECG traces, respiration, blood pressure, temperatures, pulse oxygen (the level of oxygen supplied by the blood stream) and capnography (assessment of carbon dioxide clearance). We have not just one of these monitors – but three! This ensures that every patient is fully monitored throughout their anaesthetic – with an extra machine in reserve for recovering patients or in the case of failures. Additionally, we have other monitors available for respiration and pulse oxygen monitoring for use in kennels or other situations. Patient safety is at the core of the service we provide.
