Essentials of Small Animal Anesthesia and Analgesia, Second
Edition presents the fundamentals of managing small animal
anesthesia patients in a clinically relevant, accessible manual. The
bulk of the book is distilled from Lumb and Jones' Veterinary
Anesthesia and Analgesia to provide authoritative information in a
quick-reference format, with references to Lumb and Jones'
throughout for easy access to further detail. Logically reorganized with
an easy-to-use structure and an increased focus on pain management,
this new edition features new chapters on equipment and managing
specific conditions.

The Second Edition has been updated to reflect
current practices in anesthesia and analgesia, and a new companion
website offers review questions and answers, video clips, and an image
bank with additional figures not found in the printed book.
Essentials of Small Animal Anesthesia and Analgesia, Second
Edition provides veterinary care providers and students with key
information on anesthetic and analgesic pharmacology, physiology,
patient assessment, and clinical case management.
