Pain Management in Small Animal Medicine describes and clearly
illustrates the difficulties and choices facing veterinarians in
identifying and treating pain, in addition to providing an account
of the neurobiological mechanisms responsible for the pain.
Expanded from the author's previous work, Chronic Pain in Small
Animal Medicine, this volume uses the original text to illustrate
the core theme of "mechanism base" and expands the text
considerably with the inclusion of areas beyond chronic pain.
Topics include: * Pain assessment in small animal medicine * The
functional physiology of pain * The use of pharmacologics and
nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs * Nutraceutical mechanisms and
therapy * Management of pain related to canine osteoarthritis,
musculoskeletal disease, and cancer * Pain management features
unique to cats Emphasizing the latest evidence and contemporary
understanding of "why" and "how" to treat pain, the book will
enable veterinary healthcare professionals as well as those in
training, education, and research to develop a greater depth of
knowledge in mechanisms of pain and potential targets for
treatment- thereby raising the standard of care for pain
management.
