This volume reviews much of the new information now available on the management of ischemic stroke, considering stroke as a potentially life-threatening yet treatable disease. It will include sections on the epidemiology of stroke and its risk factors, as well as run the gamut in presenting clinical syndromes and common causes of stroke, focusing on how persons suspected of having a stroke should be clinically evaluated and tested. Sections that describe medical and surgical therapies complete the discussion.
"This concise, authoritative textbook is strongly recommended to physicians who wish to optimize the care of patients with stroke."--New England Journal of Medicine, May 2002 "...an excellent textbook for neurologists, neurosurgeons, pediatricians, cardiologists, internists, and general physicians who deal with the diagnosis and management of strokes...strongly recommended"--New England Journal of Medicine, May 2002 "Overall, the authors succeeded very well in condensing a huge amount of information into a hands-on textbook in a rather comprehensive yet still personal way. We recommend it as a basic reference for any (busy or not busy) physician taking care of stroke patients."--European Neurology, Vol. 49, No 3, 2003
