Blood Pressure Management and Stroke Prevention cover

In patients with a history of stroke or TIAs, blood pressure lowering markedly reduces the incidence of stroke recurrence. This guide provides a visual overview of the basic concepts clinicians managing patients with hypertension should understand about ischemic stroke. This includes an in-depth assessment of the relationship between treatment of hypertension and primary and secondary stroke prevention. This title will be a useful reference for doctors treating hypertension in hospital and primary care.

97/100, 5 stars. "An excellent teaching tool for both medical students and patients that details in high-colour graphics what occurs in the brain following a stroke and during treatment... The graphics in this book make it superb for teaching students and house staff... The strength of this book lies in the exquisite colour figures and photographs... This is a tremendous addition for the library of teaching institutions and has great value for a primary care clinician's office." Vincent Carr, Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences
