This

practical new resource uses a highly visual approach to summarise and

simplify neurocritical care topics which can often seem daunting in

their complexity. Diagrams, flowcharts, figures and tables highlight the

main principles of disease pathophysiology, diagnosis and management,

giving an easy-to-understand insight into this new and exciting field of

medicine. Numerous high-quality radiographic images demonstrate the

neuroimaging of neurological and neurosurgical diseases, and overviews

of major clinical trials and studies provide an evidence-based

perspective. Incorporating a full grounding in the fundamentals of

neuroanatomy, neurophysiology and examination, and summaries of key

points and suggested reading for each chapter, this book is a concise

yet thorough reference for all those working in neurocritical care.

Ideal for both trainees and specialists in neurology, neurosurgery,

intensive care, anaesthesiology, emergency medicine and internal

medicine.
