Veterinary Anaesthesia: Principles to Practice

Product Description
Review

"This is a very useful book that deserves its place on the shelves of all veterinary practices, and should be used by anyone with an interest in veterinary anaesthesia". (Veterinary Record, 19 February 2011) "This is a very good, detailed guide to veterinary anesthesia with easy access to useful information for students, practitioners, or veterinarians taking advanced qualification. It has the most up–to–date and clinically pertinent information, presented in an understandable and easy–to–use format". ( Doody′s, January 2011) "Covers the essential topics from the basics to the practice of veterinary anesthesia. The learning objectives at the beginning and questions and further reading at the end of each chapter provide focus. Interspersed with chapters on more traditional subjects are informational chapters that cover some practical aspects of clinical anesthesia, such as guidelines for analgesic infusions, recognition and management of perianesthetic problems, and the cardiovascular medications small animal patients may be receiving when admitted for anesthesia.... a valuable tool for veterinary students, veterinary technicians, and practitioners preparing for board–certification examinations in anesthesia." ( Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association , December 2010)
