The provided sources do not contain a complete chairside CBC or chemistry reference range table for dogs or cats. The sources reference these panels by component name and recommend screening intervals, but do not list the numeric reference intervals themselves. The one case report in the sources (Source Journal of the…) includes reference ranges for a single feline patient, but these are incidental values from a clinical vignette and are not validated chairside reference ranges.
What the sources do confirm about panel composition is useful for structuring your minimum database. For dogs and cats, the recommended chemistry minimum includes total protein, albumin, ALT, glucose, BUN, creatinine, sodium, potassium, calcium, and SDMA if available. AAHA Clinical G…+1 The CBC should include hematocrit, RBC, WBC with differential, cell morphology, and platelets, with pathologist review if indicated. AAHA Clinical G…+1
For anesthesia preanesthetic workup, laboratory values obtained within 3–6 months are acceptable if values were normal and the patient is clinically healthy; if either the patient or values are abnormal, diagnostics should be repeated immediately prior to anesthesia. AAHA Clinical G…
For oncology patients on chemotherapy, the actionable neutrophil count thresholds are: 1,000–2,000/μL (afebrile) — monitor, delay chemotherapy, antibiotics not necessary; below 1,000/μL (afebrile) — prescribe oral antibiotics, delay chemotherapy, consider dose reduction; below 1,500/μL with fever or systemic signs — hospitalize, IV fluids, IV antibiotics, delay and reduce chemotherapy dose. A cutoff of 750/μL has been suggested as safe for outpatient management and may reduce unnecessary antimicrobial use. AAHA Clinical G…
The veterinary literature's standard chairside reference ranges (e.g., MSD Veterinary Manual hematology tables) were not reproduced in the provided sources — Source MSD Vet Manuals contains only a section header with no numeric data. For validated species-specific reference intervals, the MSD Veterinary Manual hematology reference range tables or your in-house analyzer's validated reference intervals are the appropriate resources.
