As part of performing intensive surgical procedures, Dr. Eginton uses multiple analgesic drugs (pain medications) affecting different parts of the pain pathway simultaneously to improve the comfort of my patients. This often allows for use of less anesthetic gas and less total drugs during surgery, as well as keeping pets comfortable on the table and afterwards in recovery. Some examples of these are:

• Constant-rate IV infusions (CRIs) of drugs

• Local/Regional anesthetic blocks

• Epidural analgesia

• Incisional long-lasting local anesthetics

• Splenectomy using the LigaSure device

• Adrenalectomy (no pheochromocytomasat this time)
