Veterinary Anesthesia and Analgesia, The 6th Edition of Lumb and Jones

Veterinary Anesthesia and Analgesia: The Sixth Edition of Lumb and Jones is
a fully updated revision to this comprehensive, authoritative reference
to all aspects of veterinary anesthesia and pain management.
Encompassing both scientific principles and clinical applications, the
new edition adds new knowledge, techniques, and discussion of emerging
issues throughout. Fourteen new chapters significantly expand the
coverage of patient monitoring modalities and nociception and pain,
while presenting new information on safety culture, infection prevention
and control, biomedical engineering, and point-of-care ultrasound.

Logically
organized into sections, information on basic principles, pharmacology,
specific body systems, and specific species is easy to access.
Comparative anesthetic considerations for dogs and cats, horses,
ruminants, swine, laboratory animals, free-ranging terrestrial mammals,
marine mammals, reptiles, amphibians, fish, and birds are discussed.
Chapters are devoted to anesthesia and pain management of common
domestic species and patient populations, including updated chapters on
local and regional anesthetic and analgesic techniques. A companion
website offers video clips of point-of-care ultrasound techniques and
pain assessment and scoring.

Readers of Veterinary Anesthesia and Analgesia: The Sixth Edition of Lumb and Jones will also find:

• Significantly
  expanded coverage of patient monitoring, including new chapters devoted
  to anesthetic depth and electroencephalography, electrocardiography,
  blood pressure, ventilation, oxygenation, and anesthetic gas monitoring.
• More in-depth coverage of respiratory physiology and
  pathophysiology, with new sections covering oxygen therapy, mechanical
  ventilation, anesthetic management considerations for bronchoscopy,
  intrathoracic procedures, including one-lung ventilation, and patients
  with respiratory disease.
• Expanded coverage of pain physiology
  and pathophysiology, recognition and quantification of pain, and
  clinical pain management, including both pharmacologic and
  nonpharmacologic modalities.
• A companion website incorporating
  video clips and example pain scoring sheets to complement the more than
  500 images in the text itself.

With its unparalleled multidisciplinary approach, Veterinary Anesthesia and Analgesia is
a must-own volume for veterinary cspecialists and
researchers; specialists in other disciplines, including both small and
large animal surgeons; practitioners; and students.
