Use of LVT
 

All invasive procedures should be performed only by licensed technitions or veterinarians. The use of assistants to perform these procedures; ( i.e. insetion of urinary or intravenous catheters; endotracheal tube placement; jugular blood draws; injections; drain placement; etc. ) should be a violation of the practice act.
