Opis
As the role of the veterinary nurse evolves, it encompasses a far wider range of responsibilities and specialties. This book is aimed at those veterinary nurses who are interested in learning more about surgical techniques as well as for those who already perform minor surgery.

Minor Veterinary Surgery brings together all the information needed for a veterinary nurse to confidently approach minor surgical procedures in small animals. Based on a thorough grounding of surgical principles, the book takes a hands-on approach and focuses on applying theory to practice. The author has included clear instructions for performing a number of minor surgical techniques and offers practical advice in the form of handy hints and tips making this a highly accessible and user-friendly text.

All areas of veterinary surgical nursing are covered in detail from pre-operative examination and patient preparation through to communication with pet owners and aftercare of wounds and pain management. Potential complications and pitfalls are discussed as each procedure is dealt with separately. This book will be useful for quick reference in clinical situations as well as being an excellent study guide.

This is an essential purchase for every veterinary nurse interested in minor surgery and every practice committed to supporting and developing the skills of its veterinary nurses.
