Master the veterinary technician’s role as a veterinary anesthetist! Covering the principles of animal anesthesia and pain management, Anesthesia and Analgesia for Veterinary Technicians and Nurses, 6th Edition is the definitive guide to the latest drugs, techniques and protocols, and anesthetic equipment. Clear guidelines to anesthesia administration include pre-anesthetic preparation of the patient, induction procedures, the monitoring of patients’ vital signs during the anesthetic period, and postoperative care. Written by expert educators John A. Thomas and Philip Lerche, this trusted text prepares you for success in the classroom and on the Veterinary Technician National Exam (VTNE).

    • Two large-animal anesthesia chapters cover pain management and anesthetic techniques for equine, ruminant, camelid, and swine patients.
    • Reference tables and boxes provide quick access to fluid administration rates, properties of anesthetic drugs, oxygen flow rates, anesthetic protocols, normal and abnormal monitoring parameters, and more.
    • Learning features include chapter outlines, learning objectives, key terms, Technician Notes, key points, review questions, and suggested readings.
    • Glossary at the end of the text makes it easy to look up definitions of terms.
