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.
