Description

A completely revised and updated reference for farm animal anaesthesia, sedation, and pain management

The newly revised Second Edition of Farm Animal Anesthesia: Cattle, Small Ruminants, Camelids, and Pigs is a practical and easy-to-use manual for techniques associated with anaesthesia and pain management in farm animal species.

A thorough introduction to general preanaesthetic considerations for ruminants, camelids, including alpacas and llamas, and potbellied pigs
A comprehensive exploration of commonly used preanaesthetics and injectable anaesthetics, including anticholinergics, sedatives, tranquilizers, analgesics, and injectable anaesthetics
Practical discussions of standing sedation and chemical restraint, including new drug combinations for reliable restraint and remote drug delivery
In-depth description of the use of neuromuscular blocking drugs and monitoring in farm animals
