Surgery and anesthesia · Monitoring protocol
Your pet is never alone under anesthesia.
From the pre-anesthetic exam to full recovery, a technician watches their vital signs minute by minute. Here is how we make every surgery as safe as possible.
Where to start?
Book an appointment
For a planned surgery or an assessment.
Understand the safety
Our monitoring protocol, phase by phase.
A surgical emergency
Gastric torsion, pyometra, trauma: call first.
We call you as soon as the procedure is done.
Our approach
What makes the difference
Safety first
Rigorous protocols and modern equipment to reduce every risk, whatever the procedure.
Multiparametric monitoring
All vital signs tracked minute by minute by a qualified technician who does nothing else.
Transparent communication
We explain every step and call you as soon as the procedure is complete.
The protocol
Three phases, continuous monitoring
From the initial evaluation to full recovery, your pet is never left alone.
Complete pre-anesthetic evaluation
Before any procedure, we tailor the protocol to your animal specifically: never a one-size-fits-all approach.
- Full physical exam: cardiac and pulmonary auscultation
- Bloodwork performed on-site in 10 to 15 minutes
- Anesthetic risk classification (ASA)
- Personalized protocol based on age, weight and medical conditions
Constant monitoring in the operating room
A veterinary technician is exclusively dedicated to monitoring your pet throughout the entire duration of anesthesia.
- Electrocardiogram (ECG): real-time heart rate and rhythm
- Pulse oximetry (SpO2): blood oxygen saturation
- Non-invasive continuous blood pressure
- Capnography: exhaled CO2, to confirm ventilation
- Body temperature with a warming blanket
Monitored recovery until fully awake
The post-anesthetic period is just as critical. Your pet stays under watch until fully stable.
- Vital-sign monitoring until complete recovery
- Multimodal pain management
- Temperature control and gradual rewarming
- Neurological reflex evaluation
- Owner called as soon as the procedure is done

The equipment
The technologies behind us
IV fluid therapy
A systematic intravenous catheter to maintain blood pressure and keep immediate emergency access.
Intubation and ventilation
Airway protection and optimal oxygenation, with precise control of anesthetic depth.
Laser therapy
Applied to surgical sites to reduce inflammation and support tissue healing.
Multimodal analgesia
Several complementary pain medications for optimal comfort, with the fewest side effects possible.
Emergency surgeries
Our team is ready to stabilize your pet and operate urgently. For cases that need intensive multi-day monitoring, we handle stabilization and surgery, then coordinate transfer to a 24/7 specialized centre.
Rapid stabilization
Fluid therapy, oxygen therapy, and management of shock and pain.
Surgical intervention
Emergency surgery with full monitoring and a protocol adapted to the critical state.
Coordinated transfer
If 24/7 follow-up is needed, transfer with complete medical-record transmission.
Examples : Gastric dilatation-volvulus, acute pyometra, abdominal trauma, intestinal obstruction, internal hemorrhage.
What to do in an emergencyBefore the day
Preparing for surgery
What you need to know to get your pet ready.
Pre-operative fasting
No food 8 to 12 hours before surgery; water is generally allowed until 2 to 3 hours before. Fasting reduces the risk of vomiting under anesthesia.
Medical history
Let us know about any current medication, known allergy or recent health concern: this information helps personalize the protocol.
Reachable number
Make sure we have a number where we can reach you during the day. We call you as soon as the procedure is done.
Home preparation
Set up a quiet, comfortable recovery space, remove obstacles, and keep the cone within reach if we give you one.
To support you
Guides for your procedure
Read these before and after surgery, so recovery holds no surprises.
Your pet deserves attentive care.
