System Documentation

What problem does it solve?

Pain assessment in veterinary patients is often subjective and species-specific; this skill provides validated tools and guidelines to interpret and act on pain signals across dogs, cats, and small mammals.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Species-specific scales: GCPS for dogs, FMPI/UNESP-Botucatu for cats, and multimodal analgesia ladder as a practical framework.
  • Interpretation and decision support: guides analgesia planning, dosing considerations, and thresholds for intervention.
  • Real-world scenario: use GCPS to evaluate perioperative pain and tailor analgesic regimens.

Quick Start

Assess a new patient using GCPS for dogs or FMPI/UNESP-Botucatu for cats and reference the multimodal ladder for analgesia planning.
