Cats: What is 120-160?
Concentration of butorphanol.
What is 10mg/ml?
Monitors heart rate and rhythm, diagnoses arrhythmias.
What is an ECG?
Normal Fluid Rate (mls/kg/hr) for dogs while under anesthesia?
What is 5mls/kg?
Anesthesia monitoring readings are taken every _____ minutes.
What is 5 minutes?
Normal SPO2 percentage.
What is 95% and above?
Can cause necrosis if accidently given SQ instead of IV.
What is propofol?
Measures the oxygen saturation percentage.
What is a pulse ox?
Fluids are increased to this rate (mls/kg/hr) when hypotension occurs (this is after other measures have been taken to help increase/check blood pressure i.e check blood pressure cuff, decrease Isoflurane.)
What is 10mls/kg/hr?
Example of a crystalloid fluid.
What is LRS? (plasmalyte, and normasol-R are also acceptable answers.)
Normal mean arterial blood pressure (MAP) for dogs and cats while under anesthesia.
What is 70-90 mm Hg?
This drug is given if a pet is experiencing bradycardia.
What is atropine? (*glycopyrrolate can also be used and is an acceptable answer)
