The acclaimed protocol-based guide to neurocritical care – essential for daily practice and the boards

An immediate classic, this groundbreaking text is based on the premise that neurointensivists must be trained to handle not only the brain, but the entire body. The NeuroICU Book, Second Edition does not limit coverage to the brain and spine – it spans all organ insufficiencies and failures – along with neurologic illnesses.

Thoroughly updated to keep pace with all the advances in this emerging field, the Second Edition of The NeuroICU Book combines the latest clinical perspectives in critical care medicine, neurology, and neurosurgery. This practical, evidence-based text standardizes neurocritical care and takes you through the rationale for those standards. Filled with detailed case studies and enhanced by a question-and-answer format, the book not only builds competency in recognizing acute changes in neurological function, but also addresses all organ insufficiencies and failures, reflecting the real-life challenges in the modern neuro-ICU.

FEATURES

• Strong emphasis on clinical practicality
• Evidence-based approach leverages the scientific and controlled research that supports the key treatment methods outlined in the book
• Practical tools include algorithms, tables, illustrations, photographs, detailed references, and critical take home points
• Balanced coverage of neurologic and critical care and neurosurgery offers outstanding preparation for the neurocritical care board certification exam as well as an indispensable primer for daily clinical work
• Second Edition includes new chapters covering CNS infection, paroxysmal sympathetic hyperactivity, acute liver failure, encephalopathy and delirium, spine trauma, pediatric neurosurgery, and carotid endarterectomy and extracranial-intracranial bypass

Editorial Reviews

Reviewer: David James Dries, MSE, MD (Regions Hospital)
Description: This is the second edition of a case-based book that describes the management of patients with neurological problems in a variety of acute medical and surgical conditions.
Purpose: Focused on neurointensivists, this book prepares this group to manage not only acute neurological conditions, but also a wide range of medical and surgical problems that could present in a neurological critical care practice.
Audience: Trainees in neurological critical care, neurosurgeons, trauma surgeons, and other intensivists are an appropriate audience. The senior author directs neurocritical care services at the University of Texas Medical School at Houston.
Features: The book is organized according to the outline used in the first edition. Neurocritical care diseases are first described including various forms of hemorrhage, trauma, neurovascular disorders, and tumors. Subsequent sections focus on monitoring and surgical problems beyond the nervous system. Concluding sections are organized according to organ system, with reviews of infectious disease, cardiopulmonary critical care, metabolic support, and end-of-life issues. Chapters are clearly written with shading and multicolored highlights to identify topics. Case presentations open each chapter with sequential revelation of clinical data. Options for clinical decision-making are discussed followed by summary points for each topic. Chapters include a reference list with citations dating to within three to four years of publication that emphasizes primary literature. The table of contents groups chapters into broad categories, while a detailed subject index includes separate citations for figures and tables.
Assessment: This edition has been expanded with six new chapters designed to reflect the evolution in the practice of critical care that has occurred since the first edition. Chapters in each area are well written and illustrated. Two organizational issues include a tendency to repeat important topics in different chapters and a tendency to describe support of various organ systems without adequate emphasis on the neurological implications of care. Despite these reservations, the problem-based format is effective.
