Description
The indispensable resource for the busy small animal
practitioner. Providing easy-to-use, cutting-edge information, Côté's Clinical
Veterinary Advisor: Dogs and Cats, 4th Edition is like six books in one - with
concise coverage of diseases and disorders; procedures and techniques;
differentials, mnemonics, and lists; laboratory tests; clinical algorithms; and
a drug compendium. Completely updated from cover to cover, this edition includes
over a dozen all-new chapters on new and important topics including
hyperadrenocorticism (food-related), hypercalcemia (idiopathic feline),
meningoencephalitis of unknown etiology, incidentally-detected heart murmurs,
and more. It also includes free access to a fully searchable companion website
containing an electronic version of the text, all of the book's images in color,
bonus chapters and video content, a searchable drug compendium, 200 client
education handouts in both English and Spanish, and 35 customizable client
consent forms.
