Dogs that underwent a second airway surgery (33 of 117) were excluded. Comparisons of BOAS indices and RFGs among preoperative, short\u2010term, and long\u2010term postoperative time points were performed using Friedman's tests and post hoc Wilcoxon signed rank tests with Bonferroni corrections.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Results<\/jats:title>\n \n There were 32 of 117 dogs available for long\u2010term assessment. Median long\u2010term postoperative assessments occurred at 1645\u2009days after surgery (range 1208\u20132927\u2009days). Long\u2010term postoperative RFG and BOAS index values were improved compared with preoperative values. There was no difference between short\u2010term and long\u2010term postoperative assessments (\n p<\/jats:italic>\n > .999 for RFG values, and\n p<\/jats:italic>\n = .623 for BOAS index values). Owners reported a high degree of satisfaction with surgery: 55% believed their dogs no longer had breathing problems (long\u2010term BOAS index 50.8 \u00b1 17.6%)\u00a0and 39% believed their dog still had breathing problems (long\u2010term BOAS index 48.9 \u00b1 20.5%).\n <\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n Improvements in RFG and BOAS Indices seen following surgery were maintained over time.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Clinical significance<\/jats:title>\n This is the first study with clinician\u2010assessed objective long\u2010term respiratory outcomes of BOAS surgery.
