Dr. Gianluca Bini explores the complexities of anesthetizing dogs and cats with intracranial disease and seizure disorders
In this episode of the North American Veterinary Anesthesia Society Podcast, host Dr. Bonnie Gatson is joined by veterinary anesthesiologist, Dr. Gianluca Bini, to explore the complexities of anesthetizing dogs and cats with intracranial disease and seizure disorders. Together, they discuss key physiologic considerations to know before anesthetizing any patient with a brain disorder, including the interrelation between cerebral perfusion and intracranial pressure and factors that can alter this crucial relationship.
From managing intracranial pressure to choosing the right drugs when the brain's already a bit on edge, they'll cover the critical considerations that keep these cases from becoming true cranial chaos. Dr. Bini, owner of SafePetAnesthesia LLC [https://www.safepetanesthesia.com] and Assistant Professor of Anesthesia and Analgesia at Oklahoma State University, brings his signature mix of brainpower and practical know-how to the table. With experience in both academic and clinical practice, plus a passion for keeping anesthesia safe, he's the perfect guest to help us navigate the grey matter of navigating the challenges of anesthetizing neurologically compromised patients.
