Comparison of two non-invasive arterial blood pressure monitoring techniques in brown bears (Ursus arctos)
Monitoring arterial blood pressure (BP), represents a more accurate evaluation of hemodynamics than heart rate alone and is essential for preventing and treating intra- and post-operative complications in wildlife chemical immobilization. The objectives of the study were to test the correlation betw...
