A pet’s hospital is a place where sick pets are kept until they recover. They have a number of different surgical procedures to choose from. Some are more invasive than others, which means they may require an overnight stay.
During a surgical procedure, the patient will be put under anesthesia. They will also have a breathing tube inserted into their trachea. This tube will be removed once the animal wakes up. The technician will call the owner to discuss how the surgery went. If the pet is still in pain, sedatives might be prescribed.
X-rays are essential during comprehensive dental procedures. These will reveal any hidden decay, allowing the veterinarian to effectively treat and clean the teeth.
In the past, a common practice was to simply brush the pet’s teeth. However, this method does not address the underlying problem of dental disease.
The present study evaluated two ClO2 ultrasonic aerosol techniques. The MAM method uses a solution of chlorine dioxide that is applied twice a day. An additional disinfection is performed after the first application.
As part of the study, air samples were collected in four different areas of the pet’s hospital. These were then measured for temperature, airflow velocity, residual bacteria, and bioaerosol levels of fungi.
The average temperature in the pet’s hospital was always higher than 11 degrees Celsius. Relative humidity was measured with a TES-1364 Humidity Temperature Meter.
After the first and second application, the hourly residual fungus concentration levels were reduced. Residual bacteria was less than the levels found before the treatment.
