by Lesley G. King

Hardcover: 624 pages
Publisher: W.B. Saunders Company; (December 16, 2003)

Book Info
School of Veterinary Medicine, University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, PA. Respiratory diseases are common and often challenging problems in dogs and cats. Animals with respiratory disease tend to have chronic, recurrent problems that are difficult to manage and do not respond easily to therapy.

This textbook offers state-of-the-art advice about management of dyspneic patients, and patients with chronic recurrent disease. The chapters are all written by recognized experts in each specific subject area. The first parts of the book are organized to facilitate rapid use by presenting a problem-based approach to respiratory tract disease, and describing techniques for diagnostic testing and general support of patients with respiratory tract disease. The final and largest section of the book provides an in-depth description of specific respiratory disorders, including their pathophysiology, diagnostics, expected clinical course and management.

*The author is a recognized expert in respiratory medicine in small animals, joined by 60 of the top people in this field.
*Respiratory tract diagnostics is thoroughly covered, with descriptions of pathophysiology and state-of-the-art tools for diagnosis and management of respiratory tract disorders.
