Pre-anesthetic lab work:

Lab work prior to anesthesia and surgery is essential to evaluate your pet for underlying problems that could interfere with the procedure. A CBC looks for signs of anemia and changes in white blood cells and platelets. A chemistry panel checks organ functions and electrolytes. In general, a Chem 10 is recommended for young patients with no health concerns. A more comprehensive Chem 17 is recommended for senior patients or those with existing health concerns.
