Concise, problem-oriented and accessibly designed, the second edition of the Pocket Handbook of Small Animal Medicine focuses on the essentials of medicine and surgery of the dog and cat. Packed with bullet points, flowcharts and tables for quick reference, the book helps start the process of case management and resolution. It includes tips and hints on interpretation of physical signs, diagnostic tests and management of common presenting conditions. Full colour algorithms assist decision-making, specifically in clinical presentations and critical care.
Part 1 covers an overview of basic approaches
Parts 2 and 5, ‘Clinical Presentations’ and ‘Critical Care’ present a series of algorithms intended to guide the reader from presentation to diagnosis, or to outline emergency management.
Part 3 forms the core of the book, covering – in brief – the examination, diagnosis and treatment of the diseases (including a new section on exotic infections) and disorders of each body system, as well as multisystemic disorders
Part 4 covers anaesthetics, analgesia, and surgery.
The new edition is completely updated and contains important new sections on client communication and professional conduct, mental health and wellbeing, therapeutics and common procedures.
