About Cardiovascular Disease In Companion
Product Description This new edition of Cardiovascular Disease in Companion Animals, authored by two leading experts in the field, now covers the horse as well as the dog and cat. The comprehensive, superbly illustrated book has been completely revised and expanded from the original Cardiovascular Disease in Small Animal Medicine. Five key sections provide clearly written overviews of normal cardiovascular structure and function, pathophysiologic derangements and their manifestations, clinical cardiology testing and interpretation, and extensive guidance for cardiovascular disease diagnosis and management. A broad collection of clinical images, graphics, tables, diagrams, and a Summary Drug Tables for each species enhances the book’s utility as a practical clinical resource. Up-to-date references support the focus on cardiovascular diseases and reflect important developments in veterinary cardiology and practice. A valuable companion website contains videos and additional images to enhance each chapter. Since first publication in 2007, Dr Ware’s authoritative yet user-friendly guide to cardiovascular diseases in veterinary practice has been widely praised. This book contains even more illustrations of the highest quality. Coverage also includes diagnostic considerations for various clinical problems, procedures and techniques for patient evaluation, and detailed management strategies for congestive heart failure, arrhythmias, and other complications of cardiovascular disease. This second edition is a must-have for veterinary practitioners, students, interns, residents, and others with an in-depth interest in veterinary cardiology. Review A very fine addition to the first edition of Dr. Ware's textbook, Cardiovascular Disease in Small Animal Medicine. Over a lengthy period of time, Dr. Ware has significantly revised and added to her original textbook on Cardiovascular Diseases. This edition has been supplemented with a significant amount of new material including diseases in the horse with the assistance of Dr. J. Bonagura as well as producing a text that will be utilized across the spectrum in veterinary medicine. Dr. Brian Scansen has similarly added to the book's usefulness by providing additional excellent illustrative material that fits in very well with the scope of the book. With the additional discussion and explanation, this book will be of use not only to the student, the practicing veterinarian but also to medicine residents and cardiologists who wish to have a detailed understanding of the subject. The table of contents alone shows the breadth of this undertaking. It is hard to look at it without immediately being drawn to any one of the new or expanded chapters. Over the last decade there has not been a significant addition to the cardiovascular literature in the form of a complete book dedicated to this one subject. I am pleased to recommend this book as the latest and most complete tome available to our profession. I believe anyone with even a passing interest in this field will be pleased to have this book as part of their library. It is complete, thorough and very well written along with supportive, clear to understand and extensive illustrations including most importantly current echocardiograms that clearly demonstrate the pathological processes being discussed. Stephen Ettinger, DVM, DACVIM (SAIM and Cardiology) This excellent textbook is a must have for all veterinary practitioners, interns, residents and veterinary students. It is complete – you do not need any other cardiovascular book! It is broken down into 5 sections with an added formulary at the end. New to the book (from the previous edition) are thorough sections on equine cardiovascular disease, diagnosis and treatment and updates on all of the other sections. The book is extremely thorough covering the normal heart (including P-V loops), cardiac imaging (including tons of high quality images and equine thoracic radiographs), echocardiogra
