This revised and expanded Third Edition highlights the advances in this rapidly evolving field from the late 1980s to 1992. More than 30 experts offer useful and practical guidelines for managing the wide range of problems arising in postoperative neurosurgical care and care of patients with acute neurological diseases. New areas covered in this edition include: stroke therapy; acute management of brain tumours; neurological complications of acute medical diseases in general intensive care units, and, postoperative care after specialized procedures such as embolization of arteriovenous malformations. Other chapters, including those on head injury, myasthenia gravis, and metabolic derangements in neurological patients, have been rewritten to reflect current knowledge and practice.
