Survey of veterinarians who use pentobarbital for euthanasia suggests knowledge gaps regarding animal disposal.
J Am Vet Med Assoc

1Division of Animal and Public Health, AVMA, Schaumburg, IL.
Objective: To assess (1) veterinarians' knowledge and practices regarding disposal of euthanized animals, (2) the extent to which veterinarians communicate with their clients about potential risks of rendering pentobarbital-euthanized animals, and (3) the extent to which veterinarians communicate potential relay toxicosis and environmental risks of pentobarbital-euthanized animals to clients.
Sample: A stratified random sample of AVMA members.
Methods: Over a 3-week period in early 2021, 16,831 of the AVMA's 99,500 members were surveyed, with 2,093 responses (a 12% response rate).
