In small animal veterinary medicine we prefer a stage and plane of anesthesia where the patient is still ventilating on their own; they do pretty well like this and PP ventilation is rarely necessary. In large animal veterinary medicine, ventilators are sometimes used, especially in equine surgery.
Perfect! Just what I needed for my anesthesia machine assignment for vet tech school!
Thank you, Dr. Chavez. Well done videos. I plan to use them for teaching purposes to my 3rd term RVT students.

These tutorials are great! Could you do one for anaesthesia monitoring and how to deal with cardiovascular emergencies during anaesthesia?

Invaluable.
Do you all ever attach a ventilator to the anesthesia machine? YOu all don't use NMBAs do you?
