Manual of Nonhuman Primate Anesthesia, Analgesia, and Postoperative Care
This practical guide to nonhuman primate (NHP) anesthesia and analgesia in research facilities is the first NHP-specific anesthesia resource. It offers an easy-to-navigate manual with diagrams, bullet points, color photos, and quick reference tables.
With each chapter authored by an experienced veterinarian, lab animal technician, or zoo animal practitioner, this book includes topics like troubleshooting anesthetic complications, recognizing pain, postoperative care, and behavioral and environmental enrichment.
Providing the most updated practices for NHP anesthesia and analgesia, this is an essential reference for veterinarians, technicians, and other research and laboratory personnel working with NHPs. It provides a primary reference for those learning about NHP anesthesia for the first time, as well as a quick refresher for those who have worked with NHPs but are new to specific anesthetic protocols or the particular species.

Biography
Cholawat Pacharinsak, DVM, PhD is Associate Professor and Director of Anesthesia, Pain Management, and Surgery, at Stanford University’s Department of Comparative Medicine; he is a Diplomate of the American College of Veterinary Anesthesia and Analgesia (DACVAA). He received his DVM from Chulalongkorn University, Thailand and trained in an Anesthesiology/Pain Management residency program and received his Master's degree at Washington State University. He completed his PhD in Comparative and Molecular Biosciences from the University of Minnesota. Prior to arriving at Stanford, Dr. Pacharinsak was a faculty member in Anesthesiology and Pain Management at Michigan State University and Purdue University; and served as a Clinical Specialist at UCLA’s David Geffen School of Medicine. His research focuses on understanding the neurobiology of cancer pain, chemotherapeutic-induced peripheral neuropathy, acute surgical pain models, and methods to improve clinical pain management e.g. sustained release analgesics supporting refinement. Research methodology includes electrophysiologic and behavioral techniques.
