target=\"_blank\">The Culpeper Star-Exponent (Va.)<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Q:\u00a0 I know February is National Pet Dental Health Month, but I am worried about the risk of anesthesia.<\/p>\n<p>A:\u00a0 Anesthesia always involves some risk, but there are many precautions that can make anesthesia as safe as possible.\u00a0 The risks of dental disease usually outweigh the risks of anesthesia.\u00a0 Bacteria from dental disease can affect the whole body including the heart, liver and kidneys.<\/p>\n<div>\n<div id=\"in-story\">\n<div id=\"tncms-region-ads-in-story\"><!------ OAS AD 'BottomLeft' begin ------><!------ OAS AD 'BottomLeft' end ------>Prior to any patient being anesthetized, a complete physical exam should be performed to ensure the safest anesthetic experience.\u00a0 Pre-anesthetic blood tests should also be completed in order to detect anemia or problems with liver health, kidney function, blood sugar, or serum proteins that would otherwise go unnoticed.\u00a0 Having the complete picture of your pet\u2019s health, veterinarians can individually tailor the choice of anesthetic drugs, keeping your pet as safe as possible.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>At my practice, we use only uses the safest, most modern anesthetic medications for any procedure.\u00a0 Most of these drugs are used every day in human hospitals.\u00a0 Your pet will benefit from the advanced safety of modern anesthesia.\u00a0 State of the art computerized monitoring equipment is also used to keep every patient as safe as possible.\u00a0 Your pet\u2019s heart rate, EKG, respiration, blood oxygen saturation, and core body temperature will be constantly monitored during the procedure using the latest VetSpecs PC-VSM3 multi-parameter digital anesthetic monitor.<\/p>\n<p>Tracheal intubation during general anesthesia maintains adequate ventilation.\u00a0 The simple act of placing a tracheal tube will ensure your pet receives enough oxygen throughout the procedure, a key component in anesthesia safety.<\/p>\n<p>Intravenous fluid therapy will help protect your pet\u2019s kidneys from damage during anesthesia.\u00a0 Healthy kidneys are vital to a long, happy life.\u00a0 No human hospital would ever perform general anesthesia without IV fluids, yet many veterinary hospitals skip this important step.\u00a0 The IV catheter placed to administer fluids can also be life-saving.\u00a0 If minor abnormalities occur during the procedure, appropriate medications can be rapidly administered intravenously when a catheter is present.\u00a0 With early detection from a computerized monitor, and speedy treatment through a catheter, our medical team can often keep small problems from turning into larger ones.<\/p>\n<p>To protect against dangerously low body temperature, we use a high tech water circulating heating pad system.\u00a0 This system will not burn the patient.\u00a0 When we say as safe as possible, we mean it.<\/p>\n<p>From the moment your pet is anesthetized until after he or she wakes up, a highly educated member of our medical team is by his or her side.\u00a0 No anesthetized patient is ever left alone, not even for a second.\u00a0 Our professional staff regularly attends continuing education courses on the newest, safest anesthetic techniques.\u00a0 We will be there to hold your pet\u2019s paw.<\/p>\n<p>We use breed-specific profiling as well.\u00a0 Certain breeds carry specific predispositions that should be addressed prior to anesthesia.\u00a0 Examples include clotting disorders in Dobermans, heart murmurs in Maine Coon cats, and drug sensitivities in Greyhounds.\u00a0 Brachycephalic breeds (bulldogs, pugs, Boston terriers, Pekingese) can have brachycephalic syndrome with increased respiratory effort with the potential for upper airway obstruction.\u00a0 We avoid excessive sedation with brachycephalic breeds, administering pre-medications at half-dose.\u00a0 We also pre-oxygenate brachycephalic breeds and use short-acting induction agents.\u00a0 Appropriate sized tracheal tubes are selected and extubation does not occur until your pet is sitting up, vigorous, bright and alert.\u00a0 Sighthounds (greyhounds, whippets, Borzoi, Salukis) have delayed metabolism, lower body fat percentage and are at risk for hypothermia.\u00a0 These risks are kept very low since we use high tech monitoring equipment and warm water circulating heating pads.\u00a0 Herding breeds (collies, shelties, Australian shepherds and border collies) can have a mutation resulting in accumulation of certain drugs in the cerebral spinal fluid, followed by excessive sedation and respiratory depression.\u00a0 For these patients, we reduce certain medications by 25% and monitor carefully.<\/p>\n<p>In conclusion, it is important to keep your pet healthy and dental health is a critical component of overall health and well being.\u00a0 Modern protocols, like the ones at Clevengers Corner Veterinary Care, minimize anesthetic risk and maximize the benefit of a clean, healthy mouth.<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Dye practices companion animal medicine and surgery at Clevengers Corner
