The BSAVA Manual of Pain Management in Small Animals is an essential reference guide for daily use by all members of the veterinary team.
With its user-friendly educational format, this guide aims to provide professionals with practical information on pain management in small animals, including cats and dogs, birds, rabbits, and exotic companion animals, with an emphasis on patient welfare and evidence-based medicine.
The initial chapters lay the foundations for pain management, including the physiology of pain, acute and chronic pain, pharmacological treatment, and physical therapy.
The subsequent chapters focus on specific pain scenarios, such as dental pain and cancer pain, using the authors' insights and case examples to reinforce the guiding principles.
