These jackets are specially designed for resilience, consisting of a hard and durable plastic pocket that resists interference or manipulation by dogs during drug administration by continuous intravenous infusion.
This durability offers a permanent fix for what has been a consistent issue in study scenarios, especially those employing group-housing conditions. For many years, various works have demonstrated the feasibility of ambulatory infusion in group-housed dogs.
The selection of the right equipment is a crucial step in preventing resource damage and being able to achieve outcomes with success.
Detachable YKK® #5 brass zipper – designed for strength and durability, makes pocket easy to put on and take off.
Transparent window – allows technicians to spot a pump malfunction quickly.
Coated nylon fabric finish - protects infusion equipment against extreme housing conditions.
Stainless steel slider hooks and D-rings – help deter animal manipulation—no rust after washing.
Custom protective foam – fits the infusion pump snugly and prevents the pump from shifting as dogs move.
Breed-specific design ensures optimal coverage of the dog's body.
Double layered polyester/nylon mesh - breathable and lightweight, enhances airflow and temperature regulation.
Nylon/spandex fabric trim - provides increased comfort for upper arms and elbows.
Cotton fabric sleeves (optional) - offer extra warmth and equipment protection.
Nylon/spandex fabric inserts - protect skin from chafing. Chafing may occur on animal body parts that rub against the jacket zipper, such as the neck/jowl and the upper back.
