Description and Table of Contents
Description
The field of critical care neurology encompasses new imaging and monitoring technologies, new therapeutics, and new understandings of brain resuscitation, cerebral edema, and head injury. The patients either have a neurologic disorder, are recovering from neurosurgery, or have a neurologic complication as a result of other surgeries. Providing information on such topics as acute ischemic stroke, chronic respiratory failure of neurogenic origin, and central nervous system infections, this is the ideal book for all neurologists involved in the treatment of critical care patients.
