Format PDF E-Book File Size: Varies Category: Veterinary Anesthesiology and Pain Management Specialty: Farm Animal Medicine and Surgery DESCRIPTION ----------- This comprehensive second edition serves as the definitive reference for veterinary professionals performing anesthetic procedures on farm animals. Covering the unique physiological considerations and practical challenges of anesthetizing cattle, small ruminants (sheep and goats), camelids (llamas and alpacas), and pigs, this essential resource bridges the gap between small animal anesthesia protocols and the specialized needs of production and companion farm animals. The text addresses the critical differences in drug metabolism, anatomical variations, and handling requirements that distinguish farm animal anesthesia from other veterinary disciplines. Written by leading experts in veterinary anesthesiology and farm animal medicine, this updated edition incorporates the latest research findings, drug protocols, and safety guidelines for both field and clinical settings. The book provides evidence-based recommendations for preoperative assessment, anesthetic agent selection, monitoring techniques, and emergency management specific to each species covered. Particular emphasis is placed on practical, cost-effective approaches suitable for both ambulatory practice and hospital environments. This invaluable resource equips practitioners with the knowledge to confidently manage anesthesia for routine procedures such as dehorning and castration, as well as complex surgical interventions. With detailed coverage of local and regional anesthesia techniques, sedation protocols, general anesthesia, and pain management strategies, this textbook ensures optimal patient safety and welfare while addressing the economic and logistical constraints inherent in farm animal practice.
