Providing a ready reference for the initial triage, collection of
diagnostic samples, and management of a poisoning case, "Small
Animal Toxicology Essentials" focuses on the most common poisons
encountered by companion animals. From prevention to evaluation,
monitoring, and treatment, the book is a guide for veterinary
technicians to differentiate between significant and insignificant
exposures and effectively manage animal poisonings.
Emphasizing clinical signs, differential diagnoses, and case
management, the book begins with the principles of veterinary
toxicology, such as terminology, history-taking, and
decontamination. The second half of the book is devoted to specific
toxicants, including plants, metals, drugs, and household poisons.
A companion website at www.wiley.com/go/poppenga provides review
questions in Word and color images available for download into
PowerPoint. "Small Animal Toxicology Essentials" is a useful
resource for veterinary technicians, especially those with a
interest in emergency and critical care, and veterinary technician
students, as well as practicing veterinarians looking for an
introduction to toxicology.
