Whether it is for a spay\/neuter or for more serious health problems, when pet surgeries<\/strong> need to be performed, specific steps need to be followed. It is a process that starts at home with the support of the owners and continues inside the veterinary office thanks to the staff in charge. Since this is often a traumatic time for the furry ones, it is necessary to know how to behave<\/strong> and make sure that everything around them conveys safety and serenity to them. <\/p>\n\n

For this reason, it is necessary that the equipment within the operating and recovery room be designed to make the preoperativeexperience<\/strong> as atraumatic<\/strong> and comfortable as possible. We at Lory Veterinary Projects have always strived to provide all of our clients with the proper tools to safely perform pet surgeries. From the cages<\/strong> and operating tables<\/strong> to the furnishings of the entire veterinary office, everything is designed to convey serenity to our four-legged friends. <\/p>\n\n

The precautions to follow before veterinary surgery<\/h3>\n\n

Before anoperation<\/strong>, a procedure designed to make the entire process as quick and safe as possible must be followed. In fact, it has been seen that when correct procedures are taken as early as from home, the percentage of a quick and healthy recovery<\/g> increases considerably. Preparation begins as early as the previous 12 hours with the withdrawal of food; in fact, it is important that the patient be on a complete<\/g> food fast<\/g>. Water, on the other hand, should be left available at all times. Doing so prevents the onset of emesis or pneumonia ab ingestis<\/em>. <\/p>\n\n

Among the steps to be taken before pet surgery<\/strong> is proper grooming of the coat. The grooming stage allows for checking for parasites<\/g>, and if necessary using specific products<\/g> to eradicate them, and for removing dirt or knots from the dog and cat. In preparation for shaving<\/strong>, in fact, it is important that the hairs are thoroughly treated so as to ensure proper incision of the affected area and facilitate the application of drains. <\/p>\n\n

In some cases it may be necessary to administer antibiotics<\/strong> a few days before the operation. It is important to evaluate on a case-by-case basis according to prior situations<\/strong> (such as diabetes, heart problems, epilepsy…) to ensure that the work is free of complications and risks. <\/p>\n\n

Animal surgeries: preoperative analysis and examinations<\/h3>\n\n

Understanding the specific needs<\/strong> of theanimal<\/strong> and planning the surgery in a targeted manner is the basis for a successful outcome and optimal recovery. Therefore, just before surgery it is important to follow proper preparation<\/strong> through specific analyses<\/strong> and examinations<\/strong>. This phase is crucial to minimize risks and to have specific knowledge of the patient’s physical and health condition. <\/p>\n\n

Blood tests provide valuable information on blood parameters<\/strong> and allow for the accurate and rapid diagnosis of any diseases in the animal. In addition, through ultrasound<\/g> and radiographs<\/g>, the health of internal organs and bones can be checked. This helps to get a detailed picture of the anatomical situation and to perform animal surgeries safely. <\/p>\n\n

It is also essential to test for anesthesia risk<\/strong>. Using a small blood sample, some blood samples can be analyzed and a possible allergic reaction toanesthesia<\/g> can be assessed. Through thorough preoperative examinations, one can determine the animal’s compatibility<\/strong> with the administered substance and identify the occurrence of any cardiac risk.<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n

Equipment and instruments for animal surgical procedures<\/h3>\n\n

In order to perform pet surgeries while respecting the health of the resident, it is essential to choose the right equipment<\/strong> and instruments<\/strong> to use in the operating room and within the practice. At Lory Progetti Veterinarians, we offer a wide range of products designed to make the operation smoother<\/strong> and ensure maximum comfort for our four-legged friends. <\/p>\n\n

Pre-washing<\/strong>, for example, helps to decrease the risk of infection and prevent fungus and bacteria. Our preoperative tanks<\/g> are the right tool for preparing the animal’s coat. Being structures made of AISI 304 stainless steel<\/g>, they are corrosion-resistant and easy to disinfect. With mixers, hand showers and filters facilitating the cleaning phase, we ensure that the patient is in the ideal condition to undergo the operation. <\/p>\n\n

Once this preliminary stage is completed, one enters the operating room. In addition to the instruments to be used for proper animal surgery, it is necessary to make sure that the tables<\/a> also reflect safety and hygiene standards<\/strong>. In particular, we at Lory Veterinary Projects provide several models, all designed to meet the individual needs of clients. Available in two models-hydraulic<\/strong> or electric-they<\/strong> are made of durable, hypoallergenic materials and adjustable in height and tilt. <\/p>\n\n

Finally, after performing animal surgeries, it is important to have the patient rest in astress-free area<\/strong>. To ensure a comfortable stay, we have designed different types of cages (modular, IDGM, SDEGA, PVC)<\/a> to provide a safe space during the post-operative period. <\/p>\n\n
