Pokes and Scopes: Endoscopy Anaesthesia

03 septembre 2025 | 20:00-21:00 | Webinaire

Endoscopy involves inserting a rigid or flexible tube into the body to examine an organ or cavity and remove foreign objects or take tissue biopsies.

Despite being minimally invasive, the procedure requires general anesthesia, which can cause complications.

Anaesthesia considerations vary by body system, such as rhinoscopy, tracheoscopy, bronchoscopy, upper and lower endoscopy, laparoscopy, or cystoscopy, for the veterinary nurse monitoring the patient.

During bronchoscopy, the patient may lose high oxygen concentrations, laparoscopy may cause insufflation, and gastrointestinal and urinary tract distention can cause vagal nerve stimulation and life-threatening bradycardia.

This webinar will help veterinary nurses understand the physiological effects of endoscopy in dogs and cats, including anaesthetic drug selection, monitoring, and recovery.
