This concise, practical text covers the essential information
veterinary students need to succeed in Equine medicine and surgery,
focusing on the nervous system, eyes, cardiovascular disorders and
haemolymphatic systems. Written for an international readership,
the book includes a glossary of terms and conveys the core
information in an easily digestible, precise form with extensive
use of bullet-points, tables, flow-charts, diagrams, lists,
protocols and extensive illustration. Part of a five-book series
that extracts and updates key information from Munroe’s Equine
Surgery, Reproduction and Medicine, Second Edition, the book
distils best practice in a logical straightforward clinical-based
approach. It details clinical anatomy, physical clinical
examination techniques, diagnostic techniques and normal
parameters, emphasising the things regularly available to general
practitioners with minimal information of advanced techniques. The
nervous system section discusses in detail the neurological exam,
mentions relevant diagnostic tests, and divides the diseases of the
system into congenital, infectious, traumatic, toxin-induced and
miscellaneous causes. In the eye section, the relevant anatomy and
the examination of the eye are followed by discussion of useful
diagnostic tests and procedures. Diseases of the eye are discussed
under the headings of congenital/neonatal, tumours, infectious and
inflammatory disorders, neurological based, and parasitic problems.
The cardiological examination and relevant diagnostic tests are
followed by sections on arrhythmias, congenital and acquired
cardiac diseases, pericardial disease and miscellaneous
cardiovascular disease. Finally, the haemolymphatic section
discusses in detail relevant diagnostic approaches and laboratory
aids, followed by sections on anaemia, haemostasis disorders,
infections and neoplasia. Ideal for veterinary students and nurses
on clinical placements with horses as well as practitioners needing
a quick reference ‘on the ground’. The spiralbound format
allows the book to lie open during practice.
