Description
The Handbook of Equine Anaesthesia continues to offer sound
practical guidance on all aspects of sedation and anaesthesia in
horses. It covers anaesthesia in a logical way from pre-anaesthetic
preparation through to induction, maintenance, monitoring and recovery;
as well as highlighting any problems and special situations. This
second edition now devotes a new chapter to analgesia.
As an easy reference book, it is designed for everyday use by the
equine practitioner; from those who anaesthetise many horses daily
under theatre conditions, to those who anaesthetise just a few a year.
Moreover, Handbook of Equine Anaesthesia is useful for veterinary
students, giving them a complete overview of equine anaesthesia.
