Introduction -- Basics of neurosciences [anatomy, physiology and pharmacology] -- Basic neurological examination -- Acute hydrocephalus -- Pneumoencephalus -- Brain edema -- Cerebral herniation: pathophysiology and clinical implications -- Brain abscess -- Intracerebral hemorrhage -- Traumatic brain injury -- Traumatic spine injury -- Acute ischemic stroke -- Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage -- Carotid cavernous fistula -- Arteriovenous malformations -- Vein of Galen malformation -- Epilepsy -- Myasthenia gravis -- Guillain-Barré syndrome -- Central nervous system infection.
Addresses emergencies in all fields of neuroscience, including disciplines like Neurology, Neurosurgery, Neuroanaesthesia, and Neuroradiology. This volume covers neurosurgical emergencies, like hydrocephalus, brain edema, intracranial bleed, intracranial hematoma, infection, and trauma, alongside neurovascular emergencies like acute ischemic stroke, non-traumatic, aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage, carotid cavernous fistula, and arteriovenous malformation. In addition, the book discusses common emergencies in neurology, including status epilepticus, refractory epilepsy, super-refractory epilepsy, and neuromuscular disorders. Beginning with neurological examination of patients through to anesthetic management of various emergencies, this book features clear images that accompany each emergency with learner-friendly features such as flow-charts, figures, text boxes, and algorithms. This book provides insights into all possible aspects of emergency management and the anesthetic management of such patients.
