Discover how their controlled randomized trial reveals that fasting horses before surgery doesn't offer the anesthetic benefits we've long believed. Instead, it delays postoperative manure output, causing unnecessary stress on our equine patients. Tune in to explore the innovative advancements in equine anesthesia with Charlie and Rachel. We dive deep into their research, discuss the future steps for further studies, and reflect on the potential impacts on equine veterinary care. Don't miss this chance to gain cutting-edge knowledge and share your thoughts with us—let's reshape the way we approach equine anesthesia and postoperative care together!JAVMA article: https://doi.org/10.2460/javma.24.04.0235INTERESTED IN SUBMITTING YOUR MANUSCRIPT TO JAVMA ®  OR AJVR ® ?JAVMA ® : https://avma.org/JAVMAAuthorsAJVR ® : https://avma.org/AJVRAuthorsFOLLOW US:JAVMA ® :Facebook: Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association - JAVMA | FacebookInstagram: JAVMA (@avma_javma) • Instagram photos and videosTwitter: JAVMA (@AVMAJAVMA) / Twitter AJVR ® : Facebook: American Journal of Veterinary Research - AJVR | FacebookInstagram: AJVR (@ajvroa) • Instagram photos and videosTwitter: AJVR (@AJVROA) / TwitterJAVMA ®  and AJVR ®  LinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/company/avma-journals
