    Despite the fact that emergency cases are often the most unstable and require both timely and skilled intervention, until recently there has been limited formal teaching in this discipline. Although experience is of considerable importance, proper management of emergency cases depends on an understanding of fundamental principles and interventions. Saunders Solutions for Vets: Small Animal Emergency Medicine is unique in for the first time offering practical, realistic and expert emergency medicine tuition in flexible online format. The six-hour reprisal of core principles coupled with a selection of key case studies provides a thoroughly practical and realistic grounding in this discipline. The course conveys the fundamentals of emergency medicine and demonstrates their application to common emergency cases within the context of a non-referral environment and without presuming any significant prior knowledge of the subject. As with all our courses, interactivity, expert comment, cumulative learning and self-assessment feature prominently. Topics covered include: Hypovolaemia and dehydration MBS examination and oxygen supplementation Parenteral fluid therapy Analgesia Perfect for all first-opinion emergency and critical care practitioners, and especially general practitioners – whether experienced or inexperienced. Note: we strongly recommend that the core principles course is undertaken prior to the case studies.

    Handbook of Veterinary Neurology provides quick access to vital information on neurologic conditions in a wide range of species, including canine, feline, bovine, caprine, equine, ovine, and porcine. A problem-oriented approach makes it easy to diagnose and treat neurologic problems in small and large animals. The coverage of disorders by problem, not by established disease diagnosis, emulates how animals present to the veterinary hospital and simplifies the formulation of a correct diagnosis. Within each chapter, discussions of neurologic disease include a review of the localization criteria and the diseases that can cause that problem, plus treatment and surgical techniques. Lead author Michael D. Lorenz brings decades of experience to neurologic assessment, using a diagnostic approach that requires minimal knowledge of neuroanatomy.
