Fasting Instructions

 

Unless your vet has given you specific instructions, pre-op fasting guidelines are as follows:

 

  • Dogs & cats over 3 months of age, and over 2kg body weight, should be fasted for 8 hours prior to general anesthesia. (Fasted means no food.)
  • Rabbits (+ puppies & kittens younger than 3 months of age or smaller than 2kg body weight) are exceptions. These patients should not be fasted.
  • Water should not be withheld prior to admitting to the hospital.

 

Pre-op fasting: *


A full examination will be performed (and charged) on surgery day, if we have not examined your pet within the last year. *


If fleas are seen on your pet, a short-term treatment will be administered, and there will be a nominal fee.
(If your pet does not have fleas, don't worry. In that case, there will be no action taken.)

 



Pre-op Bloodwork: The fee for this testing is $150.00. Click here for more information on bloodwork.

Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) / Do Not Resuscitate (DNR)

 

In the event that your pet experiences cardiopulmonary arrest (a sudden loss of heartbeat and breathing), our medical team requires your direction on whether to initiate life-saving resuscitative efforts (CPR) or to follow a Do Not Resuscitate (DNR) order.

 

DNR (Do Not Resuscitate) means that in the event of cardiac or respiratory arrest, no attempts will be made to revive your pet. Click here for more information on CPR/DNR.

 

We understand that this is a deeply personal decision. If a cardiopulmonary arrest occurs, we will make every effort to contact you immediately, provided it is safe to do so. However, we must have your prior authorization to act according to your wishes in a timely and medically appropriate manner.

 

Please review and select one of the following:

 

I give consent for my pet, named above, to have the scheduled procedure, and for vets/staff of Bellevue Veterinary Hospital to carry out any treatment that is necessary. I realise that no guarantee can be made regarding outcome/cure. I am aware of the risks of the general anesthesia and/or the procedure. If I have questions, I will ask them. I will be responsible for the fees charged for this service and for following the post-op instructions for my pet.
