Integrates current scientific principles with the newest clinical applications, including current clinical management guidelines for neurosurgical patients.
Provides expert guidance on what to do under a variety of circumstances, the logic behind why it should be done, and tips for avoiding complications.
Includes clear, conceptual illustrations throughout, along with neuroimaging, clinical photos, charts and graphs, and clinical algorithms, making complex concepts easier to understand at a glance.
Covers the latest advancements in the field including cerebrospinal fluid hemodynamics and physiology, minimally invasive techniques, brain tissue oxygenation oximetry, microdialysis, neuroimaging and neurointerventional radiology, traumatic brain injury, pediatric neuroanesthesia, and acute treatment of depression.
An eBook version is included with purchase. The eBook allows you to access all of the text, figures, and references, with the ability to search, customize your content, make notes and highlights, and have content read aloud. Any additional digital ancillary content may publish up to 6 weeks following the publication date.
