In this informative episode, Anthony Schena, CCAT, takes us on a journey through the crucial process of post-operative care for our furry companions, emphasizing that surgery is just the beginning of the road to recovery. ๐Ÿฅ๐Ÿ’‰
Anthony explains that the post-operative period is critical for our pets, as it determines how well they heal and regain function. Proper care ensures complications are avoided and maximizes recovery potential, setting the stage for the animal's long-term well-being. ๐Ÿฉบ๐Ÿถ
The journey starts at the vet clinic, where understanding the surgery, its implications, and the vet's post-op recommendations are crucial. From there, it's about ensuring a safe, comfortable environment at home, managing pain, monitoring for complications, and incorporating physical rehabilitation. ๐Ÿ ๐Ÿฉน
In this episode, Anthony dives into the specifics of post-op rehab, which may involve:
- A range of modalities from gentle passive movements and stretching to more advanced exercises ๐Ÿง˜โ€โ™€๏ธ๐Ÿพ
- Techniques like massage, joint mobilizations, and the use of equipment such as balance boards or underwater treadmills ๐Ÿ’†โ€โ™€๏ธ๐ŸŠโ€โ™‚๏ธ
- Magical modalities like shockwave and laser therapy โœจ๐Ÿ”ฆ
The underwater treadmill is particularly versatile in post-op care, allowing for controlled, low-impact movement that helps dogs build strength without straining their surgical sites. ๐ŸŒŠ๐Ÿ’ช
The timing of starting rehabilitation varies depending on the surgery and the individual animal, with some requiring gentle movements within a day while others may need weeks. A customized approach based on professional assessments is key. ๐Ÿ—“๏ธ๐Ÿฉบ
Anthony addresses the challenges pet owners face during this time, particularly the need for patience, as recovery is a process, not an event. ๐Ÿ™โฐ
Nutrition also plays a vital role in promoting healing, with specific dietary changes or supplements like omega fatty acids or glucosamine recommended depending on the surgery and the dog's condition. ๐Ÿ–๐Ÿ’Š
Emotional recovery is as essential as physical recovery, and keeping pets engaged with toys, gentle play, and love and attention aids their mental well-being. ๐Ÿงธ๐Ÿ’•
Anthony shares a standout recovery story about Diesel, a blue nose pitbull who underwent TPLO surgery and successfully returned to chasing balls and frisbees in his favorite park. ๐Ÿถ๐ŸŽพ
For dog owners anticipating surgery for their pets, Anthony advises preparation, understanding the procedure, discussing concerns with the vet, setting up a post-op safe zone at home, and considering pre-surgical rehab to condition the animal. Staying positive, celebrating small victories, and trusting in the process are essential. ๐ŸŽ‰๐Ÿ’ช
As the episode concludes, Anthony reminds us that the road to recovery is a path filled with challenges but also immense rewards as we see our furry friends bounce back to their joyful selves. ๐ŸŒˆ๐Ÿพ
