  • INCLUDED PROCEDURES:

  • NAIL TRIM: We can perform our most accurate nail trim while your pet is sedated. This service is complimentary when you bring your pet in for surgery. COMPLIMENTARY

    INTRAVENOUS CATHETER AND FLUIDS: For increased anesthetic safety, placed before surgery for delivery of fluids and/or medication to maintain blood pressure throughout the procedure. A local anesthetic is used to minimize any discomfort that may be associated with catheter placement. INCLUDED

    PRE-SURGICAL VITAL SIGNS CHECK: Prior to beginning your pet’s procedure today we check their vitals to screen for any recent developments that would change our medical plans. COMPLIMENTARY

  • OPTIONAL, BUT RECOMMENDED PROCEDURES:

  • (Please read carefully and mark one choice for each item. These may not have been included in your estimate.)

    If you have any questions about your options or why a procedure is recommended please ask an ITAH staff member.

    PRE- ANESTHETIC TESTING: Since anesthetics are removed from the body through the kidneys and/or liver, it is important to know that internal organ function and blood values are within normal limits. This is best done before the day of the procedure for the most information at the best value. Additionally, an ECG screen read by telemedicine consultants before your pet's procedure helps us check for arrhythmias that can't be heard with a stethoscope or other subtle heart hearth changes that we need to know about before anesthesia.

  • ANTI-NAUSEA TREATMENT: Nausea can be one of the most unpleasant parts of anesthesia for pets and people. This 24-hour injection of Cerenia® will help your pet feel better, guard against vomiting while your pet is under anesthesia, and get them back to eating and acting normally as quickly as possible. We feel strongly that this drug is a great benefit to many patients, and the cost of the injection is the only reason it is not automatically included with our sedated procedures.

  • TEMPSCAN® MICROCHIP IDENTIFICATION Prepare for the unexpected retrieval system permanently identifies your pet. The applied microchip and unique identification number used by Animal control and shelters can be used to reunite you and your pet through a national registry of your choice. The new microchips also report internal body temperature when scanned! This price includes lifetime registration in the Home Again database (We pay the $20 registration fee for you). You may change your information at any time at www.HomeAgain.com or by calling 1-888-466-3242.
