The American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA) and American Animal Hospital Association (AAHA) have jointly introduced the first Canine and Feline Preventive Healthcare Guidelines. These consensus statements provide veterinarians with a new resource for improving patient care by emphasizing the value and scope of regular pet examinations. The two guidelines provide complete recommendations for comprehensive preventive healthcare programs, published as accessible, single-page documents. The guidelines are based on the subjective-objective-assessment-plan (SOAP) methodology of case management, a proven approach traditionally used with sick or injured patients. This logical and disciplined process is equally applicable to healthy patients and is designed to consistently deliver optimal patient care. The guidelines recommend visits for health examinations on at least an annual basis, recognizing that for many pets, more frequent visits may be appropriate, depending on the individual needs of the patient. The guidelines also provide detailed diagnostic, therapeutic, prevention, and follow up plans, to be accompanied by appropriate documentation. The inclusive content and concise format of the guidelines are designed to maximize their practical value and make them easy to implement.
美国兽医医学协会（AVMA）和美国动物医院协会（AAHA）联合推出了首份犬猫预防性医疗保健指南。这些共识声明为兽医提供了一种新资源，通过强调定期宠物检查的价值和范围来改善患者护理。这两份指南为全面的预防性医疗保健计划提供了完整的建议，以易于获取的单页文件形式发布。这些指南基于病例管理的主观-客观-评估-计划（SOAP）方法，这是一种传统上用于患病或受伤患者的经过验证的方法。这个逻辑严谨的过程同样适用于健康的患者，旨在始终提供最佳的患者护理。指南建议至少每年进行一次健康检查，同时认识到对于许多宠物来说，根据患者的个体需求，更频繁的检查可能是合适的。指南还提供了详细的诊断、治疗、预防和随访计划，并附有适当的文件记录。指南内容全面且格式简洁，旨在最大限度地提高其实用价值并便于实施。
