Chronic Pain in Small Animal Medicine (2nd edition)

Chronic pain is unlike acute pain, it lasts beyond the time necessary for healing and resists normal treatment. No one patient feels pain in the same way and yet in veterinary medicine the patient's gain is generally assessed based on a single standard. This book aims to change that. There is an increasing focus in veterinary medicine on measuring and resolving pain and suffering. This focus is being supported by an increased understanding of pain neurophysiology, a greater offering of innovative pharmacological treatments, and consumer demand. This new edition taps into that demand. For effective animal welfare and compassionate care, it is imperative that health care professionals stay abreast of ‘best care’ offerings as well as new treatment interactions that may or may not interact synergistically with ‘traditional’ therapeutics. This book enables them to do so. The new edition provides an overview of new treatments for troublesome chronic pain states, but also contains new graphics to best understand points of text, is thoroughly referenced and has easily understood tables for various comparisons.
