Buch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - In spite of great improvements in prehospital, critical care, and surgical management, traumatic brain injury is still a leading cause of death and disability resulting in great socioeconomic burden. This book provides a comprehensive and practical perspective of the management of traumatic brain injury, from prehospital setting to discharge.Even more, the book highlights the importance of pathways (Trauma Center and Neurocritical Care Unit) and the central role of the specialized neurocritical care team and neurological critical care units in the practice of neurocritical care. Encouraging a practical, protocol-driven, multidisciplinary approach for both adult and pediatric patients, the authors provide a methodological description of the diagnostic and therapeutic management of patients with traumatic brain injury throughout the patient journey. Neuromonitoring assumes predominant importance, with an increasing role of noninvasive monitoring (near-infrared spectroscopy, Pupillometry, transcranial color Doppler-TCD, transcranial color duplex-TCCD, and optic nerve ultrasound) and neurophysiology (electroencephalography and evoked potentials) for early recognition of complications and rapid assessment of the effectiveness of medical treatment. However, the increasing amount of data increases the complexity of interpreting the collected information. The basic principles of multimodal monitoring and the computer-assisted method are presented to provide an overview of the future direction regarding the integration and interpretation of different data obtained from various techniques.Paying particular attention to prognosis and treatment-limiting decisions, the authors reviewed the critical role of neurorehabilitation and the clinical and bioethical perspective on brain death, organ donation, and communication with the family.

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Despite significant improvements in prehospital, critical care and surgical management, traumatic spinal cord injury is still a major cause of disability with devastating physical, social and psychological consequences, leading to significant direct and indirect health care costs. Taking a practical approach, this book addresses all aspects of traumatic spinal cord injury, from the pre-hospital setting to discharge. Furthermore, the book highlights the central role of trauma networks and neurocritical carespecialisation.Encouraging a protocol-driven, multidisciplinary approach, the authors provide a methodological description of the diagnostic and therapeutic management of patients with traumatic spinal cord injury throughout the patient's entire course.Neurological injuries and their sequelae assume predominant significance in this type of patient. Patients with traumatic spinal cord injury may suffer from both acute injuries and long-term dysfunctions affecting different types of organs and apparatuses. Bradyarrhythmia, haemodynamic instability, hypothermia, hyperthermia, pain, spasticity and autonomic dysreflexia are just a few examples of the possible debilitating conditions that our patients may suffer from and that, consequently, the clinician must address. Consequently, a multidisciplinary approach is required to provide appropriate clinical management.Paying particular attention to prognosis and the implementation of an early neurorehabilitation programme, the authors examine the challenges of living with spinal cord injury for both patients and families.
