Performing a routine assessment of hospitalized patients is a critical practice to ensure comprehensive monitoring of key subjective and objective physical examination parameters. This process helps evaluate the patient’s response to treatment in the hospital and allows for the early detection of potential complications. Kirby’s Rule of 20, developed by Rebecca Kirby, DVM, DACVIM, DACVECC, serves as a checklist of twenty essential parameters that should be monitored in hospitalized patients at least once per day. In this webinar, you will learn: -Which parameters can be evaluated through a physical exam. -Which parameters can be evaluated through laboratory tests. -What constitutes normal urine output for a dog. -Which parameters should be checked at a minimum every 24 hours.
