Before any surgical procedure your pet will routinely get physical examination and blood work done to ensure that there is no risk associated with your pet health in general anesthesia.<\/p>\n
All Instruments and surgical drapes for use in surgery will be autoclave – sterilized at our premise. This standard of practice normally implements in human hospital makes our surgical operation far less risk of microorganism contamination.<\/p>\n
Anesthetic Protocol and Pain management program<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n Postoperative care is very important for the success of surgical operation and pet welfare. We believe in pain management. Pet animal are not able to verbally tell us how much pain they are suffering from the surgery. So every pet operated\u00a0must receive appropriate pain management\u00a0whether or not the sign of pain show up.<\/p>\n In fact there is pain in every surgical operation (changing behavior is noticeable). This affects pet\u2018s mental condition and prolongs the process of healing further more. We at Chiang Mai Chotana Animal hospital put all efforts to manage and relieve pain from surgical operation as much as possible.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″ animation=”no” boxed=”yes”][vc_column_text]We also believe in the important of warm pad for maintaining of pet body temperature during and after the surgery. This warm pad makes pet feel more comfortable, hastens the healing process, relieves the pain and decreases the secondary infection and speed up recovery from anesthetic condition. At our practice we use electrical warm pad for this purpose in every case during and after the surgery.<\/span><\/p>\n We\u00a0here at Chiang Mai Chotana Animal hospital are\u00a0ready to provide Veterinary Orthopaedic Surgery service whenever the unexpected event of accident occurs to your beloved pets.[\/vc_column_text] There are 4 techniques as follw:<\/p>[vc_accordion active_tab=”0″ collapsible=”yes”][vc_accordion_tab title=”Applying a cast”][vc_column_text]This technique needs no surgery and a cast can be applied to the leg to treat certain fracture and complications consequently ensue; however, many fractures will require surgical intervention.<\/span><\/p>\n Applying a cast for fractured bone treatment<\/p><\/div>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_accordion_tab][vc_accordion_tab title=”Pinning”][vc_column_text]This is a surgical technique whereby a long stainless steel rod is inserted into the middle of the bone.
