Individualise it: Rethinking anaesthesia & analgesia

25 Oct 2025
Veterinary Insights Theatre
Anaesthesia

Anaesthesia protocols in small animal practice are often used with the assumption that the patient's physiology, disease presentation and anaesthetic requirements are the same. However, while there is some evidence that anaesthetic protocols can be used in some cases, it is impossible to refute that each patient is fundamentally different and that anaesthetic considerations and therefore anaesthetic plans should be thought out at the level of the individual. This section will examine some accepted protocols from the literature, and briefly provide an overview of common anaesthetic considerations that may be unique to each patient.

  • Gain an understanding of anaesthetic planning at the level of the individual
  • Develop an appreciation of protocols proven to be successful from scientific literature
  • Learn about the range of potential anaesthetic considerations in small animal patients.
