We are performing an abdominal ultrasound on your pet today. In order to get a proper image, your pet’s fur will need to be shaved on its abdomen. Abnormalities of organs are sometimes found that would indicate the need for fine needle aspirates (FNA) to help determine a diagnosis. Some areas have very little pain sensation (i.e. liver, discrete masses, lymph nodes, spleen) and as such, a very cooperative patient may not need any sedation for aspiration of an abnormal tissue. On the other hand, some patients require sedation to keep them still during the procedure. If we do find abnormalities on the abdominal ultrasound that dictate the need for FNAs please indicate your choice by initialing ONE of the following:*
- Proceed with FNAs without any phone call, sedation is approved if needed (additional cost: FNA - $200, sedation costs based on species and weight).
- Please call to discuss findings prior to proceeding with FNAs. Please be advised we will attempt to call you at the number you provided above, please try to be available by phone.
Consent*
- I have been offered pre-anesthetic bloodwork: Bloodwork checks kidney and liver enzymes. These blood tests will help us assess the health status of your pet more completely and determine if there are any additional precautions we need to take before surgery.
- I have declined pre-anesthetic bloodwork
Consent*
- An IV catheter placement is REQUIRED for all anesthetized/surgical patients regardless of age. This placement allows the veterinary staff to administer fluids to maintain hydration and blood pressure. This also allows us quick access to veins in case of an emergency situation. A small patch of fur will be shaved on either the forearm or the back legs in order to do so. This is not optional, it is a required protocol here at Tamarack Veterinary Clinic.
Should my pet have problems under sedation I would like:*
- CPR initiated (I understand that I will be responsible for the costs of doing so. Can range from $300-$600. If CPR initiation is not successful, you are still responsible for the costs.)
- No CPR
Consent*
- We are a Fear Free Certified Clinic that aims in reducing fear, anxiety and stress in our patients. If we notice that your pet is showing any signs of these, we automatically request that your pet receives some anti-anxiety/calming medication prior to their sedation. (Please be aware that you are responsible for the costs of this – it varies depending on weight of animal and breed.)
- I do not consent to Fear Free methods
