As soldiers and combat veterans have returned from the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan traumatic brain injury (TBI) has been identified as the signature injury of those wars. 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. This textbook addresses epidemiology and pathophysiology; neuropsychiatric disorders; neuropsychiatric symptomatologies; special populations and issues; and treatment. Many of the foremost scholars and clinicians who contributed to the previous edition are back with revisions of their chapters, and the volume also features five new chapters on such timely and critical topics as posttraumatic stress disorder, TBI in the context of war, and epidemiology in military and civilian populations. Textbook of Traumatic Brain Injury has been crafted to be both comprehensive and readable and to serve as a primary resource for clinicians understanding, assessment, and treatment of patients and their families who suffer from TBI.

Cerveau - Lésions et blessures - Réadaptation

Le Centre de recherche interdisciplinaire en réadaptation du Montréal métropolitain (CRIR) a pour objectif de développer et de préciser par la recherche, qu'elle soit de nature fondamentale ou appliquée, qu'elle se situe dans un paradigme positiviste ou constructiviste, les bases scientifiques et les connaissances nécessaires pour guider des interventions de réadaptation efficaces et efficientes. L'inverse est également vrai puisque les pratiques cliniques orientent, à travers les questions qui se posent au sein des programmes et des équipes, les activités scientifiques et de recherche. Le CRIR a également pour objectif de renforcer le partenariat entre les universités et les milieux cliniques, de former par les programmes d'études supérieures et par les activités scientifiques qu'il organise, la relève des futurs chercheurs et le développement d'une culture de recherche dans les établissements de réadaptation. Lors du lancement du premier volume des Publications du CRIR, il y a un peu plus d'un an, le comité des publications a pris l'engagement d'en publier un second sur le thème des traumatismes craniocérébraux (TCC). Cette problématique constitue un terrain de recherche et de réflexion actuellement très fertile pour les membres de notre centre de recherche. De plus, il ne faut pas oublier que ces traumatismes constituent une source importante de morbidité au Canada et au Québec. L'avancement des technologies médicales de pointe et la rapidité avec laquelle les soins d'urgence sont dispensés augmentent l'espérance de vie de ces personnes, ce qui produit évidemment un impact considérable sur la personne et ses proches à court, moyen et long terme. Un an plus tard, ce second volume est un indicateur de nos activités visant à répondre le plus adéquatement possible aux besoins des personnes ayant subi un TCC et de leur entourage. Ce volume vise à faire connaître les recherches et réflexions cliniques concernant les TCC menées dans le contexte des activités du CRIR. Tout au long de son élaboration, notre souhait était qu'il rejoigne les intérêts des divers acteurs de la réadaptation, qu'il s'agisse des chercheurs et de leurs étudiants, des intervenants auprès des personnes ayant subi un TCC, des gestionnaires des établissements de réadaptation ou des personnes traumatisées elles-mêmes et leurs proches.
