With profound candor and humor, Dr. Pato chronicles her journey through the enormous physical, psychological, and emotional challenges encountered following her accident, treatment, and recovery. After years of rehabilitation and reflection, Pato relays her extraordinary story through an engrossing narrative that simultaneously pedagogically serves clinicians who treat TBI, while also offering important insights for patients and caregivers affected by TBI. Across 18 chapters, Pato addresses each physiological aspect of her treatment and recovery, including her battles with aphasia, neuromuscular and memory issues, tinnitus, and vertigo -- to name just several of the setbacks she had to overcome. The book also details Pato's struggle to recover while negotiating a multitude of roles: maintaining a physician-researcher leadership position in academic medicine; managing relationships with her husband (a prominent physician-scientist as well), interacting with family and friends; and, most of all, overcoming the emotional frustrations associated with long-term physical recovery, such as relearning what were once innate motor and speech skills. A riveting account of personal injury that was met with extraordinary determination, patience, grace, and commitment to recovery, Nerve is a unique and valuable resource for clinicians, patients, caregivers and anyone else whose life has been touched by TBI. 001482914 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed November 10, 2023). 001482914 60010 $$aPato, Michele Tortora,$$d1956-$$xHealth. 001482914 650_0 $$aBrain$$xWounds and injuries$$xPatients$$zUnited States. 001482914 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001482914 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aPato, Michele T.$$tNerve$$dCham : Springer,c2023$$z9783031334320 001482914 852__ $$bebk 001482914 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-031-33433-7$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001482914 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1482914$$pGLOBAL_SET 001482914 980__ $$aBIB 001482914 980__ $$aEBOOK 001482914 982__ $$aEbook 001482914 983__ $$aOnline 001482914 994__ $$a92$$bISE
