Thesis Abstract

Abstract
This thesis investigates the effects of different anesthesia protocols on post-operative recovery in dogs undergoing orthopedic surgery. The study aims to address the knowledge gap in veterinary practice regarding the optimal anesthesia protocols for improving post-operative outcomes in dogs undergoing orthopedic procedures. Anesthesia is a crucial aspect of surgery, and the choice of protocol can significantly impact the recovery and overall well-being of the patient. Understanding the effects of different anesthesia protocols on post-operative recovery in dogs is essential for enhancing surgical success and patient care in veterinary medicine. Chapter 1 provides an introduction to the research topic, presenting the background of the study, problem statement, objectives, limitations, scope, significance, structure of the thesis, and definitions of key terms. The background of the study highlights the importance of anesthesia in veterinary surgery and the need to optimize protocols for better patient outcomes. The problem statement emphasizes the lack of comprehensive research on the effects of anesthesia protocols on post-operative recovery in dogs undergoing orthopedic surgery. The objectives aim to investigate the impact of different anesthesia protocols on key post-operative parameters, such as pain management, recovery time, and complication rates. The limitations and scope of the study outline the boundaries and focus of the research, while the significance underscores the potential benefits of the findings for veterinary practice. The structure of the thesis provides an overview of the chapters and their content, guiding the reader through the research process. Chapter 2 presents a comprehensive literature review that examines existing studies on anesthesia protocols in veterinary orthopedic surgery. The review synthesizes information on different anesthesia agents, techniques, and monitoring protocols used in canine orthopedic procedures. It also explores the effects of anesthesia on post-operative pain, recovery, and complication rates in dogs. The literature review aims to establish a foundation of knowledge for the current study and identify gaps in the existing research that this thesis seeks to address. Chapter 3 outlines the research methodology employed in the study, including the study design, sample selection, anesthesia protocols, data collection methods, and statistical analysis. The methodology section details how the research was conducted to investigate the effects of anesthesia protocols on post-operative recovery in dogs undergoing orthopedic surgery. It describes the specific parameters measured, the criteria for selecting anesthesia protocols, and the procedures for data collection and analysis. Chapter 4 presents the findings of the study, detailing the effects of different anesthesia protocols on post-operative recovery in dogs. The discussion analyzes the results in relation to the research objectives and compares the outcomes of various anesthesia protocols. It identifies trends, patterns, and correlations in the data to draw conclusions about the impact of anesthesia on post-operative parameters in canine orthopedic surgery. Chapter 5 concludes the thesis with a summary of the key findings, implications for veterinary practice, limitations of the study, and recommendations for future research. The conclusion highlights the significance of the study in improving patient care and surgical outcomes in veterinary orthopedic surgery. It also reflects on the contributions of the research to the field of veterinary anesthesia and surgery, emphasizing the importance of evidence-based practice in optimizing patient care. In conclusion, this thesis provides valuable insights into the effects of different anesthesia protocols on post-operative recovery in dogs undergoing orthopedic surgery. By investigating the impact of anesthesia on key post-operative parameters, this study contributes to the advancement of veterinary surgical practice and patient care. The findings offer valuable information for veterinarians and researchers seeking to optimize anesthesia protocols for better outcomes in orthopedic surgery.
