Companion animals are undergoing previously uncontemplated
treatments and surviving what would once have been rapidly fatal
conditions. This NEW Manual is aimed at the whole veterinary team,
drawing on all their skills to help patients achieve as full a
function and quality of life as possible after surgery, trauma or
disease, and to manage chronic conditions effectively for the
benefit of animal, owner and the practice team.
Part One discusses the principles of rehabilitation, supportive
and palliative care. The science behind pain and its management,
clinical nutrition and physical therapies is explored, and clinical
applications reviewed with reference to published evidence of
efficacy and/or effectiveness.
In Part Two, this truly innovative Manual presents a collection
of Case Studies across a range of canine and feline patients - from
discospondylitis to glaucoma in dogs and from triaditis to leg
amputation in cats. The following are considered for every case,
with expert assessment from the contributors to Part One of the
book:
- Acute and chronic pain management - Fear, stress and conflict
concerns - Nutritional requirements - Physiotherapy - Hydrotherapy
- Acupuncture - Nursing and supportive care - Owner advice and
homecare recommendations.
