Synopsis

A Doody's Core Title 2012

Brain Injury Medicine: Principles and Practice is a comprehensive guide to all aspects of the management issues involved in caring for the person with brain injury - from early diagnosis and evaluation through the post-acute period and rehabilitation. It is the definitive core text needed by all practitioners in this area, including physiatrists, neurologists, psychologists, nurses, and other health care professionals.

Written by over 100 acknowledged leaders in the field, and containing hundreds of tables, graphs, and photographic images, the text deals with issues of neuroimaging and neurodiagnostic testing, prognosis and outcome, acute care, rehabilitative care, treatment of specific populations, neurologic problems following injury, neuromusculoskeletal problems, and general management issues.

Key features include:

Emphasis on a disease state management approach to patient assessment and treatment
Promotion of a holistic, biopsychosocial model of patient assessment and care
Review of current expert consensus on practice guidelines
Exploration of epidemiologic and basic pathophysiologic aspects of brain injury
Examination of clinical issues throughout the continuum of rehabilitative care
Cutting edge, practical information based on the authors' extensive clinical experience that will positively impact patients and families following brain injury
