      abstract = {"This indispensable title rethinks the neurologic  examination in a format tailored, modified, and specialized  for neurocritical illness. Generously illustrated, this  book provides a detailed clinical assessment of the acutely  ill neurologic patient. It explains why certain neurologic  signs appear and provides fundamentals of localization.  Certain situations demand certain structured examinations.  Eventually, all information has to be integrated logically.  Different examination techniques may be needed. Recognition  of deterioration and increased vigilance with important  mimickers and confounders are part of our professional  fabric. Other necessary skills include predicting a  clinical course and outcome, coordinating effective  transfers of unstable patients, and communicating expected  clinical changes. Neurologists traditionally have carefully  considered the examination findings before acting and  localized findings before ordering tests; these heuristics  must remain. An indispensable title designed for all  learners, Examining Neurocritical Patients preserves the  beauty of a comprehensive clinical neurologic examination  and serves as a high-yield master class for every health  care professional tasked with clinical assessment of a  neurocritically ill patient"--Publisher's description.},
