Synopsis

This book discusses the basic monitoring techniques available for emergency patients. It explains techniques that can be easily performed in basic emergency room and primary care clinics, including blood pressure, capnography, electrocardiography, pulse oximetry, and point of care monitoring ranging from the physical exam to bedside diagnostic tests like PCV/TP, urine specific gravity, blood glucose, and lactate.

Following a standard format to make information easier to access, each chapter begins with basic physiology as related to the case, before reviewing how the piece of equipment or technique works, pros and cons, and when not to trust it! A final section in each chapter gives practical examples of how to use the technique in clinical settings. The book also:

- Emphasizes how physiology ties into what information each technique does (and does not) provide;
- Includes pictures, tables, and diagrams to help explain concepts;
- Delivers guidelines to rational interpretation of the results acquired.

An important resource for both veterinary practitioners and students, this book forms an approachable and succinct approach to understanding the monitoring equipment used on animal patients.
