Medical Management of Adults with Neurologic Disabilities,
As a result of advances in modern medicine and public health, adults with neurologic disabilities are living longer and often very productive lives. Because of this increased longevity, however, these patients often have secondary medical issues related to the aging process. For example, the management of hypertension, obesity, and diabetes are quite different in spinal cord injury, brain injury, and multiple sclerosis patients than in the standard treatments for typical patients. Medical Management of Adults with Neurologic Disabilities provides a reference that busy clinicians can refer to in the daily management of the diverse medical problems faced by those living with neurologic disabilities. The chapters have been selected based on the most common medical problems and health care issues that clinicians face daily, with each covering basic information about pertinent anatomy, physiology, pathophysiology, patient assessment, and practical treatment advice. With an emphasis on algorithms, clinical pearls, and guidelines, this concise and portable book is an essential means of quick reference for all physicians managing patients aging with neurologic disabilities. Special features of this unique handbook include: Alphabetically-listed chapters, facilitating quick reference Discussion of management strategies for each medical issue, including pharmacological, non-pharmacological and surgical options Inclusion of pediatric issues where appropriate Contributions from the diverse fields of neurology, PM&R, orthopedics, psychiatry, and internal medicine An emphasis on patient education and patient safety throughout all chapters ;Aging with a Neurologic Disability; Autonomic Dysreflexia; Cardiovascular System; Cerebral Palsy; Dental Care; Diabetes Mellitus and Lipid Disorders; Dysphagia; Endocrine System; Exercise; Fatigue; Gastrointestinal System; Genitourinary System; Headaches; Nutrition; Obstetrics and Gynecology; Osteoporosis and Fractures; Pain; Patient Safety; Pharmacology (Clinical); Pharmacology (Cognitive); Pneumonia and Urinary Tract Infection; Pressure Ulcers; Preventive Medicine; Psychiatric (Spinal Cord Injury); Psychiatric (Brain Injury); Respiratory System; Sexuality; Sleep; Spasticity; Substance Abuse; Vision Care.;"This is a quick reference guide for clinicians on the management of various medical problems in individuals with neurological disabilities. The book surveys various medical symptoms and conditions that such patients are likely to encounter. Common medical problems that practitioners are most likely to see are covered, such as fatigue and nutrition. However, less often discussed and less frequently occurring issues are also presented, such as dental care and obstetrics and gynecology problems. The chapters are easy, quick reads with easy to follow tables and hints for practitioners...This is a good resource, given the paucity of practical books on this topic, for a variety of healthcare professionals." - Doody, Joseph I.

TBI is also in the news on a daily basis due to sports injuries. This new edition of Textbook of Traumatic Brain Injury has been thoroughly revised and updated from the 2005 first edition to reflect the exponential expansion of research and clinical data amassed in the intervening years. Each chapter was written and reviewed by the foremost authorities in neuropsychiatry, neurology, rehabilitation medicine, and the other specialties who assess, diagnose, and treat these patients.

Evidence-based, academically rigorous, and conceptually sound, this new edition of Textbook of Traumatic Brain Injury represents a huge step forward for the diagnosis and treatment of TBI.
