DESCRIZIONE

Geared to primary care practitioners, this straightforward, practical guide focuses on evaluation and management of common pediatric neurologic conditions. Coverage includes routine disorders such as headaches, ADHD and school problems, autism, seizures, developmental delays, behavioral problems, tics, changes in gait, and dizziness, as well as neurologic conditions encountered in the emergency room. The authors address everyday questions such as how to distinguish serious from non-serious conditions, whether or not to order an EEG or MRI, what to do when a child does not respond to medication, and how to discuss common concerns with parents. Each chapter includes typical case studies.Table Of Contents 1 Suggestions for History and Physical Examination2 Headache3 School Problems and Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder4 Abnormal Movements5 Behavioral and Sleep Problems6 Seizures, Epilepsy, and Related Disorders7 Dizziness, Fainting, and Loss of Balance8 Delay or Regression of Motor Development Associated with Low Muscle Tone9 Autism and Language Disorders10 Cerebral Palsy (Static Encephalopathy) and Related Problems11 Abnormalities of Cranial Size and Shape, Hydrocephalus, and Spinal Dysraphism12 Common Neurological Complications of Trauma13 Stroke, Acute Paraparesis, and Other Serious Disorders of Acute and Subacute Onset14 Other Important Neurological Syndromes
