Hemoabdomen cases demand swift, decisive action to prevent rapid patient decline. This lecture guides veterinary professionals through the critical steps of stabilizing a patient with suspected or confirmed hemoabdomen, from the moment they arrive at the hospital to their safe transfer into the surgical suite if surgery is required. Attendees will learn how to perform rapid triage, initiate fluid resuscitation, manage hypovolemic shock, and make timely diagnostic decisions that won’t delay life-saving intervention.
