Critical Care Eeg Basics
Easy to read and well-illustrated, this unique guidebook is written for acute care providers of all backgrounds and skill levels, who may be unfamiliar with basic EEG concepts and dependent on reading EEG reports or remote interpretations. This guide introduces the basics of critical care EEG with an emphasis on the skill of real-time bedside EEG reading (pattern recognition). It is presented in two parts using case-based approaches and is full of clinical tips. Readers will become familiar with common critical care EEG patterns, their significance, and management with relevant reasoning. They will also learn how to make basic bedside EEG interpretations to supplement their clinical neurological exam and better collaborate with EEG readers. A dedicated chapter on quantitative EEG explains this important modality. In short, this book enables the use of critical care EEG as a powerful extension to the clinical assessment of critically ill patients.
Clinical Neurology A Primer A Cure for Neurophobia
This is the second edition of an introductory clinical neurology textbook written for students, hospital medical officers, neurologists in training, non-neurologist's and those that teach them. It contains the principles of clinical neurology that were relevant 100 years ago and will still be relevant in 100 years. It contains novel approaches to clinical neurology. The nervous system is likened to a map grid with meridians of longitude (the two ascending sensory and the one descending motor pathways) and the parallels of latitude, (the dermatomes, myotomes, reflexes, brainstem cranial nerves and the cortical signs). This enables accurate localisation. It contains 3 rules that enable the diagnosis of brainstem strokes (the rule of 4) and every peripheral nerve or nerve root problem in the upper (the 5*3*5* rule) and the lower limbs (the 2*2*4 rule) without the need for detailed knowledge of neuroanatomy. There are numerous illustrations and tables that complement the text. The first 5 chapters cover neuroanatomy, the neurological history, examination of the limbs, the brainstem and cranial nerves, and the cerebral hemispheres. There is a unique chapter (6) that explains the diagnostic approach once the history and neurological examination have been performed. Subsequent chapters cover intermittent disturbances of neurological function (with a very unique approach dividing disturbances into those that call falls and those that do not cause falls either with and without impairment of consciousness), seizures and epilepsy, headache and facial pain, cerebral vascular, disease, common neck and arm problems, back pain and common leg problems, abnormal movements and difficulty walking and miscellaneous neurological disorders. The last chapter discusses retrieving information and keeping up to date.The appendices discuss the bedside assessment of cognitive function, benign focal seizures of childhood, new nomenclature and drugs for epilepsy, treatment of migraine, epidemiology and prevention of stroke, tissue plasminogen activator and clot retrieval, dysphagia screen, nerve conduction studies and EMG, diagnostic criteria for multiple sclerosis and treatment of Parkinson's. Finally, Professor Gates reprints his 3 hypothesis papers. Firstly, that hypertension is secondary to, not the cause of arteriorsclerosis with superimposed atherosclerosis. Secondly, that Meniere's disease is a sodium dependant potassium channelopathy and has nothing to do with endolymphatic hydrops. Thirdly, his insights into the management of Idiopathic Intracranial Hypertension (IIH), in particular the potential use of short-term drainage of CSF at very low pressure and resolution of IIH.

Knee Pain
Understanding of knee pains seems poor in many quarters. There is inaccurate guidance for the rehabilitation of the quadriceps muscles based on derivative information that was incorrect.The anatomy of the nerve to the vastus medialis oblique and functional considerations following from this have been ill understood in the orthopaedic and physiotherapy worlds.Knee Pain: Know More is written for the layman with a view to self-help. The hope is that a demand from the layperson for better treatment might trigger interest from the professionals. The Science section includes photos of the nerves to the quadriceps and discussion of the implications of their different sizes. For example the probable size of the motor units of the V.M.O. is that they are significantly smaller than the other quadriceps muscles, i.e. their function is fine control, steering and co-ordination, and not simply power production. In consequence they are much more susceptible to pain and the incoordination it causes.Simply put, re-education of the V.M.O. function can significantly reduce knee pain, speed recovery after injury including surgery, and often it can reduce the need for surgical intervention.There are opinions and simplifications to make the book more easily digested by the lay reader of which I am well aware, but the science, published and unpublished is accurate.There is no attempt to list references of papers on the knee and related topics. They would be vastly longer than the text in the book. They would be inappropriate for the layman and the professional should already be cognisant of them during their training.

The Invention of Surgery
Written by an author with plenty of experience holding a scalpel, Dr. David Schneider's The Invention of Surgery is an in-depth biography of the practice that has leapt forward over the centuries from the dangerous guesswork of ancient Greek physicians through the world-changing "implant revolution" of the twentieth century.The Invention of Surgery explains this dramatic progress and highlights the personalities of the discipline's most dynamic historical figures. It links together the lives of the pioneering scientists who first understood what causes disease, how organs become infected or cancerous, and how surgery could powerfully intercede in people's lives, and then shows how the rise of surgery intersected with many of the greatest medical breakthroughs of the last century, including the evolution of medical education, the transformation of the hospital from a place of dying to a habitation of healing, the development of antibiotics, and the rise of transistors and polymer science.And as Schneider argues, surgery has not finished transforming; new technologies are constantly reinventing both the practice of surgery and the nature of the objects we are permanently implanting in our bodies. Schneider considers these latest developments, asking "What's next?" and analyzing how our conception of surgery has changed alongside our evolving ideas of medicine, technology, and our bodies.

Clinical Assessment and Treatment of Fractures
A fracture refers to a break in a bone, which can happen due to injuries, falls or car accidents. The common symptoms of a fracture are intense pain, deformity, swelling, bruising, or tenderness around the injury, difficulty in moving a limb, inability to move the affected part, and numbness. There are various types of fractures including avulsion fracture, comminuted fracture, fracture dislocation, hairline fracture, oblique fracture, and pathological fracture. The diagnosis involves physical examination and diagnostic tests like bone scan, X-ray, MRI and CT scan. The treatment of fractures involves covering the fractures with a hard protection such as a cast or splint. In some cases, the method of traction is used for aligning the bone that promotes the healing process. This method involves the use of pulleys and weights to stretch the muscles and tendons around the broken bone. Surgery is also a treatment option for severe cases of fractures. This book outlines the clinical assessment and treatment of fractures in detail. It presents researches and studies performed by experts across the globe. Researchers and students in this field will be assisted by this book.
