@article{899514, author = {Singh, Mamta Bhushan, and Bhatia, Rohit,}, url = {http://library.usi.edu/record/899514}, title = {Emergencies in neurology., Volume I /}, abstract = {This is the second edition (in two volumes) of a well-received book that reflects current practices in the management of neurological emergencies. It was written bearing in mind the needs of first-contact physicians, who may be neurology trainees, neurology consultants, or interns. Special attention has been paid to various aspects of managing patients at the emergency department, from taking a good clinical history, to completing a quick and focused clinical examination, to investigating and commencing treatment. Neurological emergencies are unique in that they appear abruptly, generally follow a volatile course, and require a prompt yet balanced response. The management of neurological emergencies has been a major challenge in the past, and today, early and aggressive approaches are generally recommended. Exploring these and other aspects, the book offers a valuable asset for all practitioners seeking answers to the questions that inevitably arise while attempting to manage such critical situations.}, doi = {https://doi.org/10.1007/978-981-13-5866-1}, recid = {899514}, pages = {1 online resource}, }
