Recenzii
" … this book's comprehensive review of pain pathophysiology is one of the best on the market. The diagrams rival those seen in human pain management books..."
© Doody’s Review Service, 2014, 4* by Maureen McMichael, DVM, DACVECC (University of Illinois College of Veterinary Medicine)
"This ground-breaking and extremely clinician-friendly book constitutes a wonderfully practical handbook for instigating and maintaining a best practice approach to pain management. At the same time it is an invaluable, easy to use, quick reference for drug dosages and protocols pre-operatively, post-operatively and in the consulting room."
—Debbie Doyle, MA, VetMB, MRCVS, in VETcpd
"Finally I have found a book that does not only talk about pain but also talks specifically about feline pain! A useful guide to understanding the physiology of pain and pharmacokinetics of both drugs and nutraceuticals. It offers the knowledge that allows us to assess and monitor our patients and better understand what the best options available to manage the identified problems are. It provides multiple resources links including the ISFM and AAFP guidelines on long-term use of NSAIDs. ... Great book for those who want a guide to understanding the phenomenon of pain and its management. Good presentation of available resources supported by a thorough literature review. Much more than just a ‘painkillers recipe book’."
—Agnieszka Zoltowska, BVSc MRCVS, in the Journal of Feline Medicine and Surgery
Critical acclaim for the author's previous book, Chronic Pain in Small Animal Medicine:
"A landmark publication that has the potential to considerably progress the management of chronic pain in veterinary patients."
—Veterinary Practice
"Well illustrated…highly readable and accessible format...recommended to any veterinary surgeon with an interest in analgesia or who simply wishes to improve their understanding of pain in a clinical context."
—Journal of Small Animal Practice
"Merits a place in the university and practice library, especially as a reference text."

Descriere
Expanded from the author’s previous work, Chronic Pain in Small Animal Medicine, this volume illustrates the difficulties and choices facing veterinarians in identifying and treating pain and provides an account of the neurobiological mechanisms responsible. Topics include pain assessment, the pharmacologics and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, nutraceutical mechanisms and therapy, pain management features unique to cats, and management of pain related to canine osteoarthritis, musculoskeletal disease, and cancer. 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.
