VTMED 5606

Course information provided by the 2025-2026 Catalog.

The course is designed to provide clinical experience in the use of anesthetics in small companion animals, horses, and farm animals. Students participate in selecting suitable anesthetic techniques for patients in the Cornell University Hospital for Animals and then implement those techniques under the supervision of faculty and residents. The objective is for students to acquire the knowledge and skills necessary to provide safe anesthesia and perioperative analgesia in a modern veterinary practice. Students planning to enter equine, production, or mixed animal practice who elect to take this rotation a second time can choose to spend it exclusively in the Equine and Nemo Farm Animal Hospitals.
