Areas covered include:
- Digestive, musculoskeletal, cardiovascular, respiratory, urogenital, and nervous systems

- Antimicrobial drugs and nutritional support
- Fluid, inotrope, and vasopressor therapy

- Critical care of the pregnant mare and neonate

For each disease or condition, the book includes an overview, key points, etiology/pathogenesis, clinical features, differential diagnosis, diagnosis, and management/treatment. It also provides step-by-step instructions on frequently performed procedures for the emergency/critical care patient. The text features a concise, bullet-point style to facilitate quick assimilation, along with color photos and useful charts and diagrams.
