The aim of this systematic review was to identify valid and feasible outcome measures that could be used as welfare indicators for companion parrots.

Agreement between invasive and oscillometric arterial blood pressure measurement using a high-definition oscillometric device in normotensive New Zealand White rabbits using two different anaesthetic protocols.

Objective: To use American College of Veterinary Internal Medicine (ACVIM) criteria to evaluate a high-definition oscillometric (HDO) blood pressure monitoring device versus invasive blood pressure (IBP) measurement in normotensive rabbits anaesthetized with two different anaesthetic protocols.

Study Design: Prospective experimental study.

Animals: A group of 20 healthy adult New Zealand White rabbits weighing 4.
