A comprehensive board review resource structured in a questions and answers format, covering the core knowledge of neurocritical care, including neurologic disease states, pathology, pathophysiology, and therapy, designed for certification examination preparation.
A comprehensive board review guide featuring questions and answers designed for professionals studying for certification or recertification in Neurocritical Care.
This article focuses on the multiple neuromonitoring devices that can be used to collect bedside data in the neurocritical care unit and the methodology to integrate them into a multimodality monitoring system. The article describes how to apply the collected data to appreciate the physiologic changes and develop therapeutic approaches to prevent secondary injury. Recent findings suggest that frequent bedside examinations are not sufficient to detect and prevent secondary brain injury, and that integration of multimodality monitoring with advanced informatics tools will enhance assessments. This article reviews the invasive and noninvasive technologies used to monitor focal and global neurophysiologic cerebral alterations. Multimodal monitoring is still in the early stages of development, and research is needed to establish more advanced monitors and bioinformatics to identify useful trends and predict clinical outcome or prevent secondary brain injury.
This article reviews the differential diagnosis of neuromuscular disorders in the intensive care unit (ICU), discusses the intensive care needs and evaluation of respiratory failure in patients with neuromuscular disorders, and provides a practical guide for management.
This evidence-based practice guideline, developed by an international committee, evaluates the literature and provides recommendations using the GRADE methodology for the reversal of vitamin K antagonists, direct factor Xa antagonists, thrombin inhibitors, heparins, and antiplatelet agents in the setting of intracranial hemorrhage.
A comprehensive review book featuring questions and answers designed for board preparation in Neurocritical Care, focusing on the critical care management and therapy of nervous system diseases.
A comprehensive handbook dedicated to the practice and application of electroencephalography (EEG) monitoring within the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) setting.
A medical resource focusing on the critical care methods, intensive care unit protocols, and therapeutic management of central nervous system diseases.
This article provides updated information regarding the diagnosis and critical care management of acute ischemic stroke, discussing the increased use of thrombolysis and thrombectomy in clinical practice. It emphasizes issues related to managing patients undergoing these procedures and addresses complex physiologic changes affecting neurologic and other organ systems.

Description
Great for course review and the USMLE...
This guideline was developed by the National Committee for Tobacco Control to improve smoking cessation services in Saudi Arabia, aligning with the WHO Frame Work Convention of Tobacco Control (FCTC). It provides updated, evidence-based recommendations covering clinical interventions, behavioral support (counseling), pharmacotherapy (NRT, Bupropion SR, Varenicline), and management strategies for specific patient populations including pregnant smokers, patients with psychiatric disorders, and those with medical comorbidities.
A comprehensive guide detailing the principles and clinical application of conservative indirect restorative techniques, including inlays, onlays, and overlays, for tooth repair and preservation.
A comprehensive textbook providing guidance on the management of temporomandibular disorders and occlusion, complemented by online resources such as review questions and movement animations, published by Elsevier.
This book is intended as a study companion for candidates preparing for the Part I MRCOG examination, covering basic sciences material through multiple-choice questions (MCQ). The answers include references to the appropriate page numbers in the companion text, 'Basic Sciences for Obstetrics and Gynaecology.'
A comprehensive, illustrated review text covering core concepts in pharmacology, structured for medical and pharmacy students and examination preparation.
A comprehensive study aid covering key concepts in oral pathology. Topics include abnormalities of teeth, odontogenic and non-odontogenic cysts and tumors, inflammatory jaw lesions, metabolic and genetic disorders, and various oral mucosal conditions (pigmented, white, red-blue, and vesiculo-bullous lesions).
This text, part of the 'Elements in Molecular Oncology' series, provides detailed information on the principles and applications of Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR)-directed therapy in the management and treatment of lung cancer.
This book presents a simple, do-it-yourself mouth care system, often centered on the use of xylitol, aimed at reducing dental decay, plaque, and gum disease. It encourages individuals to take a proactive, preventative role in their oral health, based on sound physiology and biochemistry, potentially minimizing the need for traditional dental interventions.
This volume provides specific guidance for becoming a successful academic surgeon, focusing on basic science research. It is part of a series intended to provide detailed information beyond introductory courses on various types of surgical research (basic science, clinical trials, health services research, and surgical education). The target audience includes medical students, surgical residents, and young surgical faculty, often serving as a textbook for Association for Academic Surgery (AAS) courses.
