Long-term Effects of Stroke
Julien Bogousslavsky
editore: Marcel Dekker Inc
pagine: 344
Evaluating the major strategies used to prevent stroke recurrence, such as antiplatelet and anticoagulant therapies, this reference assesses the efficacy of pharmacological interventions, therapeutic regimens, and quality of care for stroke patients - detecting risk factors and potential mechanisms of stroke to prevent functional disability and increase quality of life, independence, and psychological well-being in post-stroke management programs. It considers the complex issue of cost vs. benefit in post-stroke rehabilitation. Addressing common dysfunctions that occur after stroke, including motor impairment, neurobehavioral changes, cognitive loss, emotional disorders, and dementia, "Long-Term Effects of Stroke" discusses the patterns and epidemiology of ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke; the development of neurobiologically based therapeutic strategies; the possible emergence of depression, anxiety, mania, and psychosis; and; after stroke pharmacological and cell-based modalities to enhance stroke recovery. Offering perspectives from leading international authorities in the field, this book is a unique and valuable guide for clinical neurologists; cardiologists; cardiovascular specialists; cardiac, cardiovascular, and vascular surgeons; neurosurgeons; primary care, family practice, emergency room, and internal medicine physicians; physiologists; nurses, paramedical, and emergency medical personnel; and medical school students in these disciplines.

Diagnostic Cerebral Angiography
Anne G. Osborn
editore: Lippincott Williams and Wilkins
pagine: 480
Since 1980, Dr. Osborn's An Introduction to Cerebral Angiography has been the definitive text on this imaging modality. Now, this classic work has been completely revised, reorganized, and updated and expanded from an introductory book into a comprehensive, state-of-the-art reference on cerebral angiography. Diagnostic Cerebral Angiography, Second Edition, is organized into three major parts. Part 1 covers techniques and technical aspects of cerebral angiography. Part 2 is a detailed description of normal anatomy, anatomic variations, and congenital anomalies. Part 3 focuses on pathological entities, including trauma, aneurysms, stroke, vascular malformations, atherosclerosis, and vasculitis. Coverage includes new information on vascular territories, film subtraction, and magnetic resonance angiography. The text is thoroughly illustrated with 1,200 radiographs and line drawings, all of them new to this volume. Another new feature of this Second Edition is the use of boxed summaries throughout the text to highlight key points

Textbook of Stroke Medicine
Michael Brainin, Wolf-Dieter Heiss
editore: Cambridge University Press
pagine: 421
This concise and informative Textbook of Stroke Medicine is aimed at doctors preparing to specialize in stroke care and strokologists looking for concise but in-depth scientific guidance on stroke management. Its practical approach covers all important issues of prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of cerebrovascular diseases. Dedicated chapters give a thorough review of all clinical issues. Fully revised throughout, the new edition has expanded sections on topics of rising practical importance, such as diagnostic imaging, stroke unit management, monitoring and management of complications including infections, recommendations for thrombolysis, interventions and neurosurgical procedures, and clear and balanced recommendations for secondary prevention. Neuropsychological syndromes are explained and an up-to-date view on neurorehabilitation is presented. The authors are all experts in their field and many of them have been working together in a teaching faculty for the European Master in Stroke Medicine Programme, which is supported by the European Stroke Organization.
Neurosonology and Neuroimaging of Stroke

editore: Thieme Publishing Group
pagine: 399
Praise for this book: An excellent textbook accompanied by high quality illustrations illustrating clinical applications, [and the] advantages and limitations of ultrasound examinations of the central nervous system. - RAD Magazine Neurosonology and Neuroimaging of Stroke is a comprehensive reference for the diagnosis and management of cerebrovascular disease using neurosonology. Divided into two main parts, the book opens with an in-depth overview of the fundamental principles of neurosonology. It describes ultrasound anatomy, examination techniques, the essential technical concepts for clinical applications, as well as the pathogenesis of stroke and vascular pathology. For each case, the book provides concise descriptions of clinical presentation, initial neuroradiological findings, suspected diagnosis, the angiological questions, and final diagnosis. Each case concludes with a detailed discussion, enabling the clinician to gain a solid understanding of the diagnosed disease and the angiologic questions arising from the case.

La scoperta del giardino della mente. Cosa ho imparato dal mio ictus cerebrale
Jill B. Taylor
editore: Mondadori
pagine: 182
Jill Bolte Taylor ha trentasette anni, una laurea ad Harvard e un lavoro come neuroscienziata e ricercatrice universitaria quando, una mattina, un capillare esplode improvvisamente nell'emisfero sinistro del suo cervello provocandole un danno cerebrale esteso e devastante. Il suo percorso verso la completa guarigione è durato otto lunghissimi anni, nel corso dei quali ha potuto sperimentare la duplice veste di medico e paziente. E da questo insolito doppio ruolo ha ricavato spunti, consigli e suggerimenti terapeutici utili a chiunque sia rimasto vittima di un ictus o di un trauma cerebrale e a coloro che li curano e li circondano. Ma "La scoperta del giardino della mente" non è soltanto la cronaca dettagliata e diretta di una straordinaria ripresa fisica, è soprattutto la testimonianza di un'esperienza umana unica. Jill, infatti, non è più stata la stessa di prima: l'ictus, mettendo temporaneamente fuori gioco il preponderante e razionale emisfero sinistro, ha dato spazio alla creatività e alle sensazioni, emozioni e intuizioni proprie dell'emisfero destro; e oggi, pur continuando a occuparsi di ricerca, la neuroscienziata scrive, canta e realizza sculture in vetro colorato, felice di vivere e forte di una nuova pace interiore.
