Handbook of Laboratory Animal Anesthesia and Pain Management
Rodents
By Cholawat Pacharinsak, Jennifer C. Smith
1st Edition
Rodents are the most commonly used
species in biomedical research. Individuals conducting rodent research
are often responsible to ensure that all areas of anesthesia and
analgesia are performed humanely. Anesthetic agent selection, anesthetic
monitoring, and postoperative pain assessment and management are
essential to the institutional animal care and use program and
contribute significantly to the 3Rs by reducing pain and/or distress and
refining various procedures.
The Handbook of Laboratory Animal Anesthesia and Pain Management: Rodents is the first book to capture
multiple advances in this important area that greatly impacts various
experimental methodologies. Richly illustrated in full color, the book
serves as a quick reference source for investigators, veterinarians,
technicians, and other animal caretakers charged with the care and use
of rodents in a research setting. The unique format of this book also
makes it extremely valuable to IACUC members, institutional officials,
and occupational health and safety professionals.
