Vetpocket Iv Fluid Therapy Guidelines For Dogs And Cats

By Daniela de Kock

VetPocket IV Fluid Therapy Guidelines for Dogs and Cats is designed to address the confusion that still surrounds the use of IV fluid therapy in the veterinary professionโ€”despite it being something we use on an almost daily basis.

To be fair, fluid therapy guidelines is an ever-evolving subject, and much like medical guidelines, gets updated periodically. It is, however, important to stay up to date with the most current research at the time. Fluid therapy is not benign and is considered to be a drug. It is extremely important that fluid therapy be used correctly. Incorrect usage or dosage can lead to, and has led to, amongst other adverse effects, fluid overload and death in patients. We can do better.

Images, tables, reference ranges and formulas are also included in VetPocket IV Fluid Therapy Guidelines for Dogs and Cats for easy understanding of the topics covered and for quick reference.
