This course, although at an advanced veterinary level, is appropriate for technicians seeking higher level training. While the course may refer to tasks that are only within the scope of the veterinarian, the content and assignments are within the realm of team members with strong foundational training and experience.
Upon completion of the course, the student will be able to:
- evaluate and develop a safe anesthetic protocol with sedatives, tranquilizers and anticholinergics for cardiovascular patients
- evaluate sedatives and tranquilizers for patients with respiratory disease and develop specific anesthetic protocols for patients with upper airway dysfunction and/or with lower airway dysfunction
- facilitate mechanical ventilation for patients with lower airway dysfunction
- evaluate sedatives, tranquilizers and analgesics for patients with neurological disease and identify neuromuscular blocking agents
- develop anesthetic protocols for patients undergoing specific neurological diagnostic procedures
- manage seizures perioperatively in patients with neurological disease
- identify disorders of the adrenal gland, pancreas, parathyroid and thyroid glands and develop anesthetic protocols to manage
- discuss renal physiology and pathophysiology, determine the effects of anesthesia on the renal system and develop anesthetic protocols for patients with renal disease
- identify the effects of drugs on the liver and develop safe anesthetic and analgesic protocols for patients with liver dysfunction
- evaluate candidates that are a high anesthetic risk
- identify cardiovascular emergencies, potential allergic drug reactions and acute abnormalities
- establish protocols for CPR
- assess equipment malfunction
- assess patients with delayed anesthetic recoveries including identifying and treating hypothermia and hyperthermia
- prepare for anesthetic injuries
