"Equine Bandaging, Splinting, and Casting Techniques cover techniques used in applying the common bandages, splints, and casts used in equine veterinary medicine. These techniques are a vital component of clinical practice in equine medicine. There does not currently exist a single reference book that focuses on the common techniques that are used. Many veterinarians and their technicians are forced to rely on the experience gained from only one or two formal teaching labs, on informal lessons learnt during their clinical rotations in school, and post-graduation experience with client-owned animals. This results in a wide range in the quality of external equine cooptation techniques being placed in general equine practice. Practitioners are often unwilling to utilize casting techniques simply because they lack the educational resources and knowledge to properly apply a cast. Proper bandaging, splinting, and casting results in fewer chronic animal health problems, improved outcomes of injured horses, and reduced long-term costs to owners"--

This book evaluates the various evidence-based arguments for the use of compression to treat chronic wounds. It describes the growing health burden caused by these lesions with vast sums spent on wound management and its associated complexities around the world. Since compression is the mainstay of treatment in venous conditions ranging from varicose veins through venous leg ulcers, the authors have also evaluated the use of compression techniques in the successful management of lymphoedema and certain orthopaedic conditions. Compression and Chronic Wound Management provides a balanced text on how to apply scientific knowledge to ensure pragmatic clinical practice. It therefore represents an essential resource for residents, specialists and researchers in wound management, whether they are dermatologist, vascular medicine physicians and surgeons, or orthopaedic practitioners. .
