 Prefacio
E
sta nueva edicin de Kirk Teraputica veterinaria actual
(TVA) es la decimocuarta versin de un libro que han
utilizado generaciones de veterinarios clnicos y de estu-
diantes de Veterinaria. Aquellos que ya han utilizado otras edi-
ciones de este libro reconocern el formato general y la presen-
tacin de los captulos de esta edicin. Espero que el contenido
de este libro (y de la pgina web que lo acompaa) resulte tan-
to informativo como de fcil acceso para nuestros nuevos lec-
tores. Es ms, espero que TVA les ayude a atender de la mejor
forma posible a sus pacientes caninos y felinos. Aunque el for-
mato general de esta nueva edicin sigue la frmula original
diseada por el Dr. Robert W. Kirk, se han realizado algunos
cambios y mejoras.
Como el ttulo indica, la mayora de los captulos se cen-
tran en el tratamiento de los trastornos mdicos importan-
tes de perros y gatos. Teraputica veterinaria actual se divide
en trece secciones y tres apndices. Las secciones estn orga-
nizadas por sistemas de rganos, e incluyen los trastornos
cardiovasculares, dermatolgicos, gastrointestinales, hema-
tolgicos, neurolgicos y musculoesquelticos, oftalmolgi- queda. Finalmente, hemos tomado la decisin de ofrecer gra-
cos, reproductores, respiratorios y urinarios. Los trastornos
multisistmicos se analizan en las secciones que tratan sobre
cuidados crticos, enfermedades infecciosas, oncologa,
hematologa y toxicologa. En esta edicin se han revisado boratorio. Los lectores interesados pueden encontrar varias
exhaustivamente el apndice I, Tabla de frmacos comunes:
posologa aproximada, y las tablas del apndice II, Antiparasi-
tarios. Estas secciones han sido supervisadas por uno o ms
especialistas, que han actuado como editores consultores.
Estoy muy agradecido a estos eminentes clnicos por su ayu-
da y su contribucin editorial.
Es importante destacar algunos de los cambios que se
han realizado en esta edicin. En primer lugar, ha participa-
do un editor asociado, el Dr. David Twedt. Dave es recono-
cido en todo el mundo como un eminente internista, gas-
troenterlogo y educador. Le estoy muy agradecido por su
excelente trabajo editorial, y su perspectiva sobre este volu-
men me ha resultado muy til. Aunque algunos de los ex-
pertos ms respetados dentro del campo de la medicina de
pequeos animales han seguido prestndonos sus servicios,
tambin hemos reclutado a algunos eminentes editores
consultores para esta edicin. Tambin se han reorganizado
algunas secciones, y se han eliminado otras, como la dedi-
cada a Enfermedades de las aves y los animales exticos. En los
ltimos aos, han aumentado de forma espectacular los co-
nocimientos tanto prcticos como tericos sobre estas reas,
como lo demuestra la proliferacin de libros de texto dedi-
cados a estos temas. Tras alguna discusin, se decidi que la
nueva edicin del TVA deba centrarse en los pacientes ca-
ninos y felinos. Adems, se ha eliminado la seccin sobre
Tratamientos especiales y su contenido se ha incluido en
otras secciones ms importantes para estos tratamientos. La
antigua seccin Enfermedades cardiopulmonares se ha dividi-
do de forma razonable en dos secciones: Enfermedades car-
diovasculares y Enfermedades respiratorias.
Cumpliendo nuestras normas de publicacin actuales, que
siguen evolucionando, hemos creado una pgina web de Te-
raputica veterinaria actual, lo que supone uno de los cambios
principales de la decimocuarta edicin. Las personas que
compren este libro podrn acceder a este contenido electrni-
co, que se encuentra en la pgina web de Elsevier Evolve
(http://evolve.elsevier.com/Bonagura/Kirks/). Hemos inclui-
do captulos de la decimotercera edicin, que creemos que
siguen siendo tiles para nuestros lectores. Algunos de estos
captulos han sido actualizados por sus autores originales. Es-
tos captulos todava actuales se han organizado por seccio-
nes siguiendo la misma lnea que en el libro de texto. Ade-
ms, la pgina web contiene una librera de imgenes y las
figuras de esta nueva edicin, as como otras imgenes en
color. Los usuarios de la pgina web pueden acceder a un n-
dice de bsqueda en lnea. Los apndices I-III del libro de
texto tambin se incluyen en Evolve con un formato de bs-
tuitamente contenidos no publicados en el libro. Se trata de
tablas que contienen valores de referencia, que entendemos
que con frecuencia son especficos del instrumental y del la-
tablas tiles con los valores y resultados de laboratorio en la
pgina web. (Todos los contenidos incluidos en Evolve perte-
necen a la edicin original de la obra; por tanto, se encuen-
tran en lengua inglesa.)
Teraputica veterinaria actual XIV contiene 286 captulos
publicados y tres apndices, y han colaborado cientos de
autores que desempean su prctica profesional en sus res-
pectivas especialidades clnicas. Tengo una deuda con estas
personas que han proporcionado captulos concisos y de uti-
lidad clnica para la edicin actual. Hemos intentado mante-
ner el formato histrico de los captulos del Kirk, que inclua
las caractersticas clnicas principales de cada enfermedad o
trastorno, las bases para su tratamiento racional y unas direc-
trices claras y prcticas de tratamiento, abordando a la vez
los tratamientos innovadores que se estn estudiando. Como
he mencionado antes, la mayora de los captulos se centran
en el tratamiento de un trastorno especfico. Otros tratan
sobre los principios importantes de tratamiento o el abordaje
general del tratamiento de las enfermedades de los perros y
los gatos. Indudablemente, hemos omitido algunos temas
debido al rpido desarrollo de nuevos conocimientos dentro
de nuestra diversa profesin. El tratamiento de algunos de
stos puede haber cambiado poco en los ltimos cinco aos.
Otros, simplemente, se salen de nuestro mbito (o de los l-
mites de nuestras pginas) o es mejor incluirlos en otros si-
tios, como ocurre especialmente con las intervenciones qui-
rrgicas especficas, un tema del que TVA slo proporciona
algunas pautas.

xxxii Prefacio
La forma ms rpida de encontrar informacin en Tera-
putica veterinaria actual es a travs del ndice alfabtico. El
ndice est organizado dando prioridad a las enfermedades
basndose en los trastornos anatmicos y fisiolgicos, y con-
tiene muchas referencias cruzadas. Utilizando tanto el ndice
impreso en el libro como la versin en lnea de la pgina
web, el lector puede localizar un captulo determinado deta-
llando los problemas mdicos ms importantes de los perros
y los gatos. Es probable que muchos lectores familiarizados
con el formato de TVA se dirijan principalmente al ndice del
comienzo de cada seccin para examinar con detalle los con-
tenidos de la seccin. Como algunos temas se solapan en
secciones independientes, hemos intentado incluir la infor-
macin cruzada del ndice alfabtico en los captulos a lo
largo de todo el libro.
Teraputica veterinaria actual est escrito tanto para los
veterinarios que ejercen su profesin como para los estu-
diantes de Veterinaria. Esperamos que los estudiantes des-
cubran TVA y que, ms adelante, su contenido les resulte
til cuando desempeen su profesin. Siempre agradezco
los comentarios que recibo de los lectores, incluyendo to-
dos los temas sobre los posibles errores u omisiones. Todas
las ideas que puedan mejorar este libro de texto son bien
recibidas. Como ya he mencionado, he intentado mantener
TVA siguiendo la misma lnea con la que lo cre el Dr. Kirk.
Contino siendo la persona que ms agradece que los lecto-
res hayan aprobado tanto las ediciones anteriores como
esta nueva edicin.
AGRADECIMIENTOS
Me gustara dar las gracias a varias personas. Quiero dar las
gracias a los veterinarios y cientficos que han contribuido a
esta edicin, y agradezco mucho la experiencia y supervisin
de nuestros editores consultores. Las tablas que ha aportado
el Dr. David Twedt han sido muy tiles, y el libro es mucho
mejor gracias a su esfuerzo. Estoy especialmente agradecido a
Jolynn Gower, directora editorial de Elsevier. Sin los esfuerzos
constantes de Jolynn y sus nimos, esta edicin todava esta-
ra sobre mi escritorio (real y electrnico). Aprecio mucho el
apoyo y la paciencia de la editora Penny Rudolph, que ha
supervisado nuestro trabajo y nos ha proporcionado consejos
tiles. Karen Rehwinkel, jefa de Proyectos snior de Elsevier,
se ha encargado de gestionar los cientos de manuscritos, de
documentos electrnicos, la informacin de los autores y las
comprobaciones de las pginas que de alguna forma han
creado este volumen. Liz Fathman, mi primera editora en El-
sevier, me ayud mucho consiguiendo que este proyecto co-
menzara. En la creacin de este libro tambin han participa-
do otras personas que forman parte de Elsevier, con las que yo
no he trabajado directamente, y quiero hacerles llegar tam-
bin a ellas mi reconocimiento ms profundo. Doy las gracias
especialmente a Debra Primovic, DVM, por crear el ndice de
este libro y de la edicin anterior de TVA.
