    Author: Pachtinger GE, Drobatz K.
    Journal: Vet Clin North Am Small Anim Pract; 2008 May; 38(3):629-43, xii. PubMed ID: 18402887.
    Abstract:
    Hypovolemia and hypoperfusion are common life-threatening problems in animals presented to the emergency veterinarian. Assessment of physical findings and rapid recognition and treatment of abnormal tissue perfusion are crucial in optimizing outcome. The clinician should be familiar with the disease being treated and the types of fluids that are available. Development of a fluid therapy plan to correct life-threatening abnormalities and patient monitoring during treatment play an important role in patient outcome.
