Very few hospitals have dedicated neurointensive care units for management of
critically ill neurological and neurosurgical patients. Frequently, these
patients are managed in the medical or surgical ICU by non-neurologists, who
have a hard time appreciating the delicate needs of these patients. This book is
a straightforward, practical reference for treating physicians who need to deal
with a wide range of complex conditions and associated medical problems.
Although comprehensive in scope, Dr. Michel T. Torbey has designed this book for
neurologists and physicians in the ICU who need a concise and thorough guide to
management and treatment. It emphasizes practical state-of-the-art suggestions
for management and treatment and provides accessible, easy-to-follow, highly
structured, and focused protocols for the assessment, day-to-day management, and
treatment of critically ill patients in various ICU divisions. |
