What equipment do you need for a veterinary clinic?

Did you know that a veterinary hospital is very similar to a human hospital? An animal hospital requires equipment used by radiologists, ultra-sonographers, dentists, orthodontists, pathologists, ophthalmologists, dermatologists, surgeons including orthopaedic surgeons.

Here are some of the things you will find at a regular practice.

Autoclave
An autoclave is used to sterilise surgical instruments. These instruments are very similar to those used in human surgery.

Dental Base for Scale and Polishing
This is used to scale and polish your pet’s teeth just like the dentist would do for you.

Doppler Machine
A Doppler is a machine that can measure a patient’s blood pressure as well as being used to assist in monitoring a patient’s anaesthetic.

Endoscope
The endoscope enables vet’s to look down into the oesophagus and stomach as well as the trachea.

Fluid Pumps
Did you know that if your pet is put on intravenous fluids, it is the same kind of fluid used for humans.

Pathology Laboratory
Vets are able to perform various pathology tests, such as blood and urine tests using state-of-the-art diagnostic equipment.

Blood Pressure Meter
The measurement of an animal’s blood pressure (BP) has a wide range of applications in veterinary medicine.
