Over the past decade, developments in human regional anesthesia have started to carry over into veterinary medicine, where local and regional anesthesia was long considered an art that individual practitioners had to discover and hone themselves. This compilation of information can be used for systematic learning or teaching, or as a quick reference with procedural checklists, pictures, and diagrams. In sections on considerations for loco-regional anesthesia, equipment, and loco-regional anesthetic blocks for small animal patients, veterinarians discuss such topics as patient preparation, peripheral nerve simulators, ultrasound-guided peripheral nerve blocks, the oral cavity, and epidural and spinal anesthesia.
