Lizard anesthesia—a retrospective study of anesthetic protocol and monitoring quality of anesthetic episodes at a veterinary hospital over 23 years (2000–2023)
General anesthesia can be reliably and safely undertaken in lizards without severe pre-existing disease. Efforts should focus on identifying preexisting disease, creating uniform systems for assessing anesthetic stages, and limiting record-keeping variance.
