This book
provides the busy clinician with a quick, symptom-based guide to
the clinical presentation, diagnosis, work-up, and management of
the most common types of movement disorders encountered in clinical
practice, including Parkinson's disease, chorea, dystonia,
myoclonus, and ataxia. Written in expanded outline format, with
frequent diagnostic and therapeutic algorithms, tables, and scales,
it is an essential guide for clinicians faced with patients with
movement disorders.
A
Practical Approach to Movement Disorders is a welcome departure
from the typical lengthy, disease-based hardbound texts ill suited
for the busy clinician. Practical yet authoritative, this
fit-in-your-coat-pocket guide begins with a comprehensive
description of the different presentations of movement disorders.
It then details the medical, surgical, and non-pharmacological
approaches, including speech and swallowing therapy and physical
and occupational therapy.
Key
features include:
- Symptom-based, rather
than disease-based, chapters
- A focus
on the most common movement disorders
- A unique
section on the neurological aspects of deep brain stimulation
(DBS)
- Dozens
of diagnostic and management pearls
- Suggested readings for
each chapter
Handy and
comprehensive, A Practical Approach to Movement Disorders is
the only guide for busy clinicians needing quick information on
movement disorders.
