Abstract

Anesthesia is a crucial part of cesarean surgery in small animals. Approximately 16% of bitches have dystocia during whelping and > 60% of bitches with dystocia have a cesarean surgery. Performing an emergency cesarean surgery is a routine procedure of paramount importance in small animal obstetrics.1 Anesthetic management must be tailored to the mother and neonates. Current anesthesia practice assesses each patient to arrive at the best protocol aimed to reduce fetal distress and maximizing neonatal outcomes.
