Publisher's Synopsis
This book is written, mainly, for the neurologist working in, or directing, a specialized neurointensive care unit (neurointensivists), as well as other specialists including stroke neurologists, neurosurgeons, pulmonary/critical care specialists, anesthesiologists, nurse practitioners, critical care registered nurses, and therapists all working together towards improved neurologic recovery.We hope this book can provide a new addition to the emerging literature of critical care neurology, and heighten the recognition by general medical and surgical intensivists of the importance and complexities of nervous system dysfunction in critically ill and injured patients.
