About this book

An authoritative and up-to-date guide to the most common emergency conditions in horses

Emergency Triage of the Horse offers an accessible yet comprehensive reference to the most frequently encountered emergency conditions in horses, donkeys, mules, and other equids. The book focuses on how to stabilize patients when responding to an emergency. Chapters begin with clinical presentations and then guide the reader through important triage steps. Further sections discuss how to make diagnostic and treatment decisions and handle complications.

The book helps veterinarians to effectively and confidently triage equine emergencies by demonstrating practical strategies for dealing with a wide range of emergent problems. The book is designed to act as both a desk reference in your hospital as well as a hands-on guide for use on the farm.

Emergency Triage of the Horse provides:

A thorough guide to the triage and management of horses and foals suffering from emergency conditions
Advice on what can be done on the farm versus in the hospital, when to refer, how to estimate prognosis, and when to recommend euthanasia
Practical discussions of how to work safely with horses in the emergency setting
Complete guidance on how to support emergent equine patients, including lab and diagnostic testing, monitoring, nutrition, resuscitation, anesthesia, and fluid therapy
Case examples at the end of each chapter that summarize important principles and multiple-choice questions to test your knowledge on a companion website

Written for equine general practitioners and specialists, Emergency Triage of the Horse is a must-have reference for large and mixed animal veterinarians, zoo veterinarians, emergency and critical care specialists, equine surgeons, internal medicine specialists, residents, and veterinary students.
