Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although neuromuscular diseases are very common, the majority of medical specialists see far too few patients or are too specialized in their own medical disciplines to know the management options at every stage of neuromuscular disease. Patient and family are usually presented with the single approach advocated by the consulting specialist for a particular problem. This book aims to make therapists and patients alike, aware of the range of varied therapeutic techniques available.
Download or read book Respiratory Disorders in Neuromuscular Disease written by Giuseppe Fiorentino (Editor with Nova Science Publishers) and published by Nova Science Publishers. This book was released on 2021 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Over the years, the life expectancy of patients with neuromuscular disease has improved thanks to new knowledge and technological innovations. This new book is entirely dedicated to the knowledge of the complex and unique profile of patients suffering from neuromuscular pathology. Many key points are discussed by specialists dedicated to neuromuscular patient care. Respiratory support is often indispensable to sustain the patient's life. Non-invasive ventilation (NIV) has taken on an increasingly important role in the care of patients with chronic respiratory failure secondary to neuromuscular disease. The NIV approach and complementary techniques are described. The management of airways and clearance of secretions are important aspects which are dealt with in a dedicated session, and a new theme - laryngeal response pattern during NIV and cough assist techniques - is also addressed. The timing of the tracheostomy and choice of cannula are decisive in the management of the neuromuscular patient, thus the use of invasive mechanical ventilation. Topics of interest also include perioperative respiratory management, weaning from mechanical ventilation and extubation. The use of imaging techniques, such as videofluoroscopy of swallowing and sonography can support the clinician in the diagnosis of complications. Today, even pulmonary rehabilitation is an integral and indispensable part of patient care. The text - developed with the contribution of experts dedicated to the daily care of patients with neuromuscular disorders - is an ambitious project which aims to provide an extensive discussion of the topic and support for those who already work with this type of patient, as well as for those who are starting to engage in this type of patient care"--

Part one discusses the approach to neuromuscular disorders, covering principles and basics, neuromuscular investigations, and assessment and treatment of neurological disorders. Part two then addresses the complete range of specific neuromuscular diseases: neuronopathies, peripheral neuropathies, neuromuscular junction disorders, muscle ion channel disorders, myopathies, and miscellaneous neuromuscular disorders and syndromes. Neuromuscular Disorders in Clinical Practice, Second Edition is intended to serve as a comprehensive text for both novice and experienced practitioners. General neurologists as well as specialists in neuromuscular medicine and trainees in neuromuscular medicine, clinical neurophysiology and electromyography should find this book inclusive, comprehensive, practical and highly clinically focused. Additionally, specialists in physical medicine and rehabilitation, rheumatology, neurosurgery, and orthopedics will find the book of great value in their practice.

Download or read book Pediatric Neurology Part III written by Michel Vanasse and published by Elsevier Inc. Chapters. This book was released on 2013-04-24 with total page 18 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most neuromuscular diseases (NMD) are rare inherited conditions presenting a relentlessly progressive course. Some NMD are associated with intellectual impairment and many are complicated by musculoskeletal, cardiac, or respiratory problems. Rehabilitation care of NMD is thus best provided by a team of medical specialists and health professionals working closely together in an interdisciplinary fashion. Rehabilitation for patients with NMD should include physical evaluation but also assessment of their ability to manage their daily activities or work and their need for assistive devices. With appropriate physical, psychological, and social support, those patients can maintain a good quality of life and an adequate level of well-being. Surgical management of musculoskeletal problems in children related to neuromuscular disorders remains a highly controversial subject. This review is based mainly on the author's personal experience with conservative and periopeporative rehabilitation care for neuromuscular diseases. A multidisciplinary approach is advocated. The importance of proactive respiratory care is emphasized. Rehabilitation after surgical treatment of spinal deformities is analyzed outlining the particular aspects in spinal muscular atrophy, Duchenne's muscular dystrophy, congenital muscular dystrophy, and congenital myopathies. A disease- specific approach is recommended as the wide variety of different neuromuscular pathologies requires careful planning of treatment strategies best managed in a team approach.

Book excerpt: Designed for the busy practitioner, Neuromuscular provides succinct coverage of the assessment and treatment of a wide spectrum of neuromuscular diseases and conditions ranging from common to extremely rare and from relatively benign to universally fatal. Including more than 90 topics presented in a consistent format for maximum clinical utility, this nuts and bolts resource delivers point-of-care information for effectively managing peripheral nerve disorders and neuromuscular pathologies. The book is organized in seven broad sections covering mononeuropathies, polyneuropathies, the neuromuscular junction, motor neuron disease, radiculopathies and plexopathies, muscle diseases, and movement disorders. Within these sections the authors address the individual and varied diseases and syndromes that comprise the field of neuromuscular and electrodiagnostic medicine and offer a clinical roadmap for evaluation and treatment. With the improvement of function as the primary goal, the book focuses on diagnoses usually managed by neurologists and physiatrists and facilitates the relationship between these fields in the treatment of neuromuscular disease. Every entry is standardized for quick look-up in the office or clinic, and features description, etiology, risk factors, clinical features, natural history, diagnosis, red flags, treatment, prognosis, helpful hints, and suggested readings.
