Welcome back, gas passers! It's time to pick up right where we left off—because your heart (and your patients') can't afford to miss part two of our special cardiac anesthesia series on the North American Veterinary Anesthesia Society Podcast!  Host Dr. Bonnie Gatson returns with the fabulous Dr. Carolyn McKune of Mythos Veterinary LLC to continue our journey into the nuanced world of anesthetizing dogs and cats with cardiac disease. Now that we've covered the pathophysiology and prep in our first episode, it's time to talk protocols: how do we tailor anesthetic plans for patients with mitral valve disease and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy? What intraoperative monitoring really matters? And how do we handle those dreaded hypotensive or arrhythmogenic moments? This episode is guaranteed to provide some heartfelt guidance on tackling anesthetic management for these commonly seen, but nevertheless challenging patients.
