Book description
Small Animal Regional Anesthesia and Analgesia is an
up-to-date, complete resource for performing local anesthetic
techniques in small animals. This practical, clinically oriented
reference presents step-by-step procedures for performing common
locoregional blocks and is organized logically by body system. The
first book to draw information on this topic into one resource,
Small Animal Regional Anesthesia and Analgesia is equally useful
as a comprehensive reference and as a quick source of information with
checklists and pictures to assist with performing various blocks in practice.
Beginning with introductory sections offering an overview of general
considerations for patient preparation and pharmacology, the heart of
the book is devoted to detailed instructions for performing regional
anesthetic techniques, including reviews of the literature, useful
illustrations, diagrams, and clinical tips. Small Animal Regional
Anesthesia and Analgesia provides an invaluable tool for
veterinary anesthesiologists and practitioners who incorporate local
and regional anesthetic techniques into their small animal practices.
