ISVRA Standards, Guidelines and Statements are based on similar documents published by different medical bodies. They provide guidance to improve decision-making and possibly outcomes in veterinary anaesthesia. They are not intended as unique indicators of appropriate peri-anaesthetic care. Their interpretation and application happens within the context of local institutions, organizations and practice conditions. A departure from one or more recommendations may be appropriate if the care provided meets the anaesthetist's duty to the patient.
Statements represent the opinions, beliefs, and best medical judgments of ISVRA scientific committee. As such, they are not necessarily subjected to the same level of formal scientific review as ISVRA Standards or Guidelines. Each ISVRA member, practitioner, institution or practice should decide individually whether to implement some, none, or all of the principles included in ISVRA statements according to sound medical judgment.
