| There are many conditions that will not show up on a standard pre-surgical blood screen. A dog could look okay on a Chem 6 and still have a heart condition, or even a liver shunt. Human error factors in a lot of the time when there are complications in surgery. When an animal is under anesthesia, it should be constantly monitored to make sure that it is well oxygenated and to make sure that its blood pressure is within an acceptable range. For example, gas anesthesia causes dilation of the animal's blood vessels, meaning that blood pressure can drop quickly if the pet is on too high of a level of gas. This usually isn't an issue since someone should be standing by and taking readings of vital signs during the procedure and adjusting the level of gas as needed. But... if they aren't monitoring closely enough, things can get hairy pretty quickly.

Phantom Queen Morrigan Donating Member | died as in the heart stopped or died as in he stopped breathing? these are two different things that people get confused. The dog could be in picture perfect health and still have complications during surgery. They could be allergic to the anesthesia or it could be human error. There should always be a anesthesia technician there to monitor the dogs vitals while under. The vet cannot do this and surgery at the same time.

Phantom Queen Morrigan Donating Member | dogs just like people can be allergic to anything. its rare for them to be allergic to anesthesia since most vets use the same kind that is used in pediatric medicine. Does the vet have any idea why his heart stopped? did he say what was going on during the surgery when this happened?
