38 Blood pressure in dogs and cats

In this podcast, we talk to Dr Rosanne Jepson, lecturer in internal medicine here at the RVC about blood pressure in dogs and cats. Hypotension, hypertension and everywhere in between. How, with what, where and why to measure. Are we underestimating, overestimating with different techniques? Cuff size and repeatability of readings. Do your patients have ‘white coat’ hypertension? Tips and tricks, if you are regular user, or it is something that you are wanting to bring in more to your practice. Enjoy the pod.
