This book addresses the complexities and complications associated with CSF shunting procedures used in the treatment of hydrocephalus, focusing on strategies for prevention, identification, and clinical management.
This clinical article determines the benefit of combining the Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) scores and pupil responses into a simple arithmetic index called the GCS-Pupils score (GCS-P). Analyzing large pooled data sets, the GCS-P (range 1–15) was found to extend prognostic information and accurately predict patient outcome and mortality in traumatic brain injury with performance comparable to more complex methods.
A comprehensive handbook covering cerebrovascular disease and neurointerventional techniques. The Third Edition includes significant updates, dedicating a new chapter to intracerebral hemorrhage and featuring educational highlights ('Kids Korners!').
