Stroke Revisited: Hemorrhagic Stroke

Beschreibung

This book presents state of the art knowledge on hemorrhagic stroke in a unique organizational style. All aspects are covered, including risk factors, pathophysiology, diagnostic modalities, treatment, and prevention. Individual procedures and issues are fully discussed with the aid of complementary illustrations that facilitate understanding of practical aspects and enable the reader to retrieve fundamental information quickly. Furthermore, in an accompanying overview diagnostic and therapeutic processes are dynamically described in a time sequence mirroring real practice. The recent striking advances in brain imaging have resulted in a better understanding of the causes and pathophysiology of hemorrhagic stroke, and management has been enhanced by a variety of surgical techniques, intensive monitoring, and administration of novel medical treatment. Against this background, it is timely to summarize current understanding of hemorrhagic stroke and its management from a practical perspective. This textbook will be invaluable for stroke physicians, surgeons, and students seeking to acquire up-to-date knowledge on the subject.

“Stroke Revisited: Hemorrhagic Stroke provides a foundational understanding of the  pathophysiology, care, and management of hemorrhagic stroke. It is thus best suited to the neurologist or neurosurgeon in training, as well as emergency and rehabilitation physicians, nursing staff, and ICU support personnel involved in the care of these patients. It will prove to be a welcome resource in those seeking basic understanding of the care and management of patient’s suffering from hemorrhagic stroke, from initial presentation to long-term rehabilitation.” (C. Michael Cawley, Operative Neurosurgery, Vol. 86 (2), February, 2020)
