Reptile and Amphibian Analgesia * Cheryl Greenacre, DVM, DABVP (Avian); Joanne Paul-Murphy, DVM, DACZM; Kurt K. Sladky, MS, DVM; Timothy Storms, DVM; and Moderator: Eric Klaphake, DVM
* Associate Professor The University of Tennessee College of Veterinary Medicine Department of Small Animal Clinical Sciences C247 Veterinary Teaching Hospital Knoxville, TN 37996, USA Evaluating and providing analgesia are challenging and frustrating goals for any medical practitioner. These goals are even more difficult to attain in patients that cannot verbally respond if pain management is adequate. The dearth of information on this topic in reptilian and amphibian patients compounds this complication. Yet, not attempting to provide adequate analgesia borders on malpractice in today's veterinary practice. The following practitioners represent individuals currently involved in research involving analgesia in exotic animal species, and they provide their insight on analgesia in answering the provided questions.
