Download or read book Neurologic Examination written by Robert J. Schwartzman and published by . This book was released on 2022-07-14 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Neurologic Examination is designed to help medical personnel make a diagnosis for a neurological illness with the patient's history and physical examination. Neurology is logical but requires the physician to localize the lesion to an anatomical part of the neuroaxis and then to develop a differential diagnosis based on this localization. Imaging technology is now superb and buttresses but does not replace the examination. There is no imaging technique that can diagnose a migraine headache. It may, however, demonstrate white matter hyperintensities that are often confused with a demyelinating disease or small vessel disease. A negative MRI of the spine in a patient with clear L5-S1 signs and symptoms such as a weak extensor hallucis longus muscle and a depressed ankle jerk still has overwhelming evidence of L5-S1 pathology.This book leads the physician to the correct localization of a lesion utilizing simple bedside tests. The only tools employed are a reflex hammer and a pin. The illustrations and technique descriptions guide the practitioner through important distinctions with the observation of subtle details.Information gleaned in less than 10 minutes allows the attending to order the pertinent laboratory and imaging studies required to confirm a diagnosis and initiate treatment in the current health care climate.In general, the patient history gives the diagnosis; the neurological examination proves it; modern imaging and laboratory evaluation guides the treatment and predicts the prognosis.Experience with generations of medical students and residents utilizing the techniques illustrated and described in this book have been successful in making reliable neurologic diagnoses easier.

Download or read book Examining Neurocritical Patients written by Eelco F. M. Wijdicks and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-07-15 with total page 219 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This indispensable title rethinks the neurologic examination in a format tailored, modified, and specialized for neurocritical illness. Generously illustrated, this book provides a detailed clinical assessment of the acutely ill neurologic patient. It explains why certain neurologic signs appear and provides fundamentals of localization. Certain situations demand certain structured examinations. Eventually, all information has to be integrated logically. Different examination techniques may be needed. Recognition of deterioration and increased vigilance with important mimickers and confounders are part of our professional fabric. Other necessary skills include predicting a clinical course and outcome, coordinating effective transfers of unstable patients, and communicating expected clinical changes. Neurologists traditionally have carefully considered the examination findings before acting and localized findings before ordering tests; these heuristics must remain. An indispensable title designed for all learners, Examining Neurocritical Patients preserves the beauty of a comprehensive clinical neurologic examination and serves as a high-yield master class for every health care professional tasked with clinical assessment of a neurocritically ill patient.
