In this episode, our trio of veterinary anesthesiologists explores a mix of practical and thought-provoking anesthesia topics—from the acupuncture point GV20 to the ongoing debate of IM versus IV premedication. We break down when each approach might shine, what the evidence (and experience) suggests, and how these choices can impact patient management. Expect thoughtful discussion, a few clinical pearls, and the usual dose of anesthesia banter along the way.
