“…These studies also uncovered differences in opinions on pain management between Finnish and Canadian pet owners. For example, Finnish pet owners reported that analgesia was required more often for fracture repair, ovariohysterectomy, and cutaneous tumor excision procedures compared with Canadian pet owners . The perception and opinions of pet owners in the United States regarding anesthesia, surgery, and pain management are unknown and may differ from those reported in previous studies because of cultural differences.…”
