Anaesthesia can be a really challenging time (for us and our patients!) - yet it’s a part of almost all of our day-to-day roles as nurses and technicians.
I used to HATE anaesthesia.
It panicked me, I felt like I didn’t know enough, and often like I was out of control - at the mercy of whatever the patient decided to do, rather than able to take responsibility of the patient’s anaesthetic.
It was planning, pre-assessment, taking time to understand how my patient would be impacted and anticipating their needs, that made me feel more confident supporting anaesthetised patients.
This interactive record form includes:
Thorough pre-anaesthetic assessments (so you can REALLY know what your patient needs ahead of their procedure)
In-built anaesthetic safety checklists so you can feel confident monitoring your patient
Sections for patient-specific risks, and planning around those
In-built drug calculators so the maths is done for you
Sections on recovery planning and handover at the end of the procedure (because we all know the biggest risks come in the recovery period).
The form can be completed digitally and then printed ahead of the anaesthetic, or printed and completed by hand.
You also get a how-to video walkthrough of the form alongside your purchase!
Details:
Contains one digital download file - save it to your computer or phone and use it whenever you need.
You’ll receive a link to access the file via email after your purchase - if you’ve not received it, check your spam folder.
Important: This tool is intended as a guideline only, for veterinary professionals working in clinical practice. It does not replace veterinary surgeon direction, prescription, or clinical judgement. Medications must be prescribed by a veterinary surgeon, and doses must be checked and signed before administration. All veterinary nurses, technicians and associated professionals must work within local and regional regulatory guidelines and under veterinary direction. Not for editing or redistribution.
