Product Description

Review

"Additional features helping set the handbook apart from others include the innovative obstetricians' check lists in the form of flow charts covering many of the conditions detailed. The book follows a clear reference format, providing detailed, concise information in a highly readable form.I feel this would be a useful reference guide for any practice, being of greatest benefit to the less experienced clinician or student." Kate Pennell, Veterinary times, November 2004

Karin Mueller, The Veterinary Record, March 2005
"An outstanding overview of normal parturition in the common large and companion animal species. This book provides good value, and even readers experienced in obstetrics will find new information. The author succeeds in providing clear guidelines on what to expect and how to manage each situation."

Book Description

Comprehensive, practical, and easy-to-read, this unique handbook provides a clear guide to veterinary obstetrics in large and small domestic animals. A detailed description of normal birth helps readers immediately recognize abnormalities and provides a baseline against which dystocia and its treatment can be measured. The causes of dystocia encountered in each of the domestic species are described, with notes on some exotic species. Coverage also discusses the immediate care of the mother and offspring following delivery, as well as problems that occur post-parturition.
