Pain Management in Small Animal Medicine describes and clearly illustrates the difficulties and choices facing veterinarians in identifying and treating pain, in addition to providing an account of the neurobiological mechanisms responsible for the pain.

Expanded from the author’s previous work, Chronic Pain in Small Animal Medicine, this volume uses the original text to illustrate the core theme of “mechanism base” and expands the text considerably with the inclusion of areas beyond chronic pain.

Topics include:

Pain assessment in small animal medicine
The functional physiology of pain
The use of pharmacologics and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs
Nutraceutical mechanisms and therapy
Management of pain related to canine osteoarthritis, musculoskeletal disease, and cancer
Pain management features unique to cats
