  • Arterial blood gas analysis helps determine: blood pH, blood oxygenation, and blood CO2 carriage
  • Venous blood gas analysis can also tell about acid-base status.
  • Regulation of pH is required because most biochemical (metabolic) reactions can only occur efficiently within a narrow pH range.
Dr Robert Trujanovic studied at the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine in Belgrade, where he graduated in veterinary medicine in 2015. He moved to Vienna in 2015 to start his position as assistant doctor in anesthesiology at the University of Veterinary Medicine Vienna, and later, he completed his internship there from 2017-2018.

During this time, his interest in veterinary anesthesia deepened further and he started a residency at the Vetmeduni Vienna in 2018, which was completed in 2021.

In addition, he is a passionate regional anesthetist, passing on his knowledge through the latest learning methods. He led a team of experts in veterinary medicine and invested a great deal of passion into creating the first mobile app - the Vet RA App - focused on the most commonly used nerve blocks in small animals.
