Description

Over the past decade, since publication of the first edition of Chronic Pain in Small Animal Medicine, many advances have been made in the discipline of pain management, including embracement under the One Medicine initiative to improve the health and well-being of multiple species. Contributing significantly to this progress is the evidence base provided by multimodal management of chronic diseases such as osteoarthritis, a leading cause of pet euthanasia. These advances are explored in this updated edition, Chronic Pain in Small Animal Medicine, 2nd Edition, written for the veterinary professional seeking a greater depth of knowledge in the mechanisms of pain accompanying chronic disease states and the potential targets for treatment. It describes and evaluates current physiological and biochemical theories of pain transmission and provides a foundation for advances in animal care and welfare and is necessary reading for veterinarians in practice and training. 293 p.
