Manual of Clinical Procedures in Dogs, Cats, Rabbits, & Rodents, Third Edition offers readers expanded coverage of small exotic mammals, such as gerbils, hamsters, and guinea pigs, alongside a thorough revision of frequently used procedures for dogs, cats, and rabbits. Using the same accessible format of earlier editions, the third edition maintains its status as a classic veterinary clinical manual.

The Manual covers practical, up-to-date information on common veterinary procedures. The text includes details on restraint and positioning, anesthesia, surgical technique, and medical management. The essential knowledge for each section is presented clearly and concisely: purposes of the procedure, possible complications, equipment needed, and preparations. Procedures new to this edition include blood transfusions, placement of intraosseous catheters, and tracheostomy. Detailed line drawings demonstrate not only pertinent anatomical relationships, but also operational motions.

Manual of Clinical Procedures in Dogs, Cats, Rabbits, & Rodents serves as a valuable reference and is an essential purchase for small and exotic animal veterinarians and veterinary technicians.

"One of the great strengths of this book is the inclusion of many techniques often lost in the cross-over between books written for nurses and those meant for clinicians.... This book would be very useful for veterinary students and veterinary nursing students just embarking on their clinical training, but would also not be out of place on a practice shelf, as a quick reference guide to performing some of the less commonly used procedures for more experienced practitioners." (Journal of Feline Medicine and Surgery, 2010)

"This practical manual with up-to-date information on common veterinary procedures for small animals has been expanded to include basic restraint, diagnostic, and therapeutic procedures in rodents and rabbits. … Very useful in helping users know both how and when to use each procedure." (Doody's, January 2010)

"The third edition of this veterinary manual on common medical procedures for small mammals has been revised to include new clinical procedures as well as expanded coverage on rodents such as gerbils, hamsters and guinea pigs." (Book News, September 2009)
