Surgical Services
 |
At Dunn Avenue Animal Hospital we are pleased to be able to
offer surgery performed with the Luxar Accuvet 20 watt CO2 Surgical
Laser. We have been performing laser surgery since 1998, and we
were one of the first Veterinary Hospitals in the southeast to
offer this state-of-the-art technology.
Laser surgery allows more accurate surgical incicions. Tumors
can be more accurately and completely excised. Routine surgical
incisions made with the Luxar CO2 Laser heal more quickly with less
inflammation, less swelling, and less post surgical discomfort when
compared to an incision made with a surgical blade. |
 |
A patient has been prepared and is monitored prior to
surgery.
All patients are placed on a heart/oxygen monitor and warming
blanket during major surgical procedures.We also encourage that all surgical patients be evaluated
through preanesthetic lab testing, and be supported with
intravenous fluid therapy during surgical procedures. This helps us
assure a safe procedure with a rapid, uneventful recovery
period. |

|
The Luxar CO2 Surgical Laser can be used for procedures
ranging
from full thickness excisons, as required in exploratory
laparotomy,
cystotomy, or tumor excisions, or can be finely adjusted to
allow
near single cell thickness cauterization of corneal ulcers or
superficial
skin lesions. |
|
Our surgical patient monitoring during anesthesia includes the
capability of quantifying the patient's heart rate, percent of
oxygen saturation, and systolic and diastolic blood pressures. Our
goal is to make every anesthetic and surgical procedure as safe as
possible for your pet. |
