  • Cardiac Ultrasounds: Patients should only be fasted if it is suspected they will require full sedation (fractious cats, very anxious or aggressive dogs).

  • INFORMATION FOR REFERRING VETERINARIANS

  • SEDATION PROTOCOLS

    Light sedation such as butorphanol is often administered to keep patients calm and to provide pain relief during ultrasounds. Each patient will be assessed for their individual needs at the time of study. Fractious or highly stressed patients may receive further sedation to accommodate scanning and limit stress. Cardiac safe protocols are used such as midazolam/alfaxan for echos, only if patient requires. If you are declining sedation options as deemed necessary at the time of study, the study may not go forward or limited images may be taken.

  • Please advise client to give any oral anti-anxiety meds as directed prior to their visit.

    • Added fee for blood pressure measurement
    • Added fee for EKG

    A cancellation fee of $50 will be billed to clients who do not provide notice within 24 hours.
