BSAVA issues guidance on neutering during lockdown
The guidance is designed to help vets when risk-assessing the need for neutering.
Advice supplements advice issued by the RCVS and BVA.

New guidance for small animal practitioners on neutering during the COVID-19 lockdown has been produced by the BSAVA.

The Neutering Guidance is designed to help vets when risk-assessing the need for neutering while applying their clinical and professional judgement.

If forms part of a suite of tools produced by the BSAVA to assist veterinary professionals during the COVID-19 coronavirus outbreak, and supplements the advice issued by the RCVS and BVA.

“The Neutering Guidance was produced by BSAVA volunteers who collaborated with a range of veterinary contributors within a very short time frame," said BSAVA president, Sue Paterson. "Similar to our recently issued BSAVA Vaccination Guidance and in line with BSAVA’s core ethos, the Guidance is ‘By the profession for the profession."

The advice was put together in collaboration with specialists in internal medicine, exotic medicine and behaviour; advanced practitioners in medicine and exotic medicine as well as shelter medicine and primary care vets.

It follows the recently-published BSAVA guidance on vaccinations, which is available here.
