Описание: This volume presents a comprehensive, clinically relevant approach based on current research and clinical practice. As such, it is a useful tool for helping to educate mental health care professionals about the devastating consequences of TBI. This updated and expanded textbook contains 40 chapters, and more than 100 clinically relevant figures and illustrations. It is organized into seven sections that address epidemiology/pathophysiology, neuropsychiatric disorders and symptomatologies, special populations and social issues, and treatment and prevention, covering topics such as aggressive disorders, cognitive changes, fatigue and sleep problems, chronic pain, mood disorders, family systems, pharmacological therapy, and - of critical importance - prevention. Updates from the 1994 predecessor work include: separate chapters addressing structural imaging, functional imaging, and electrophysiologic techniques (the 1994 volume contained just one chapter on neuropsychiatric assessment); a chapter dedicated to specific issues that arise during neuropsychological assessment; extensive revisions to all chapters covering neuropsychiatric disorders; chapters discussing the multiple neuropsychiatric sequelae experienced by patients but not encompassed by the usual psychiatric syndromes - including apathy, reduced awareness of deficits, fatigue, pain, headaches, balance problems, visual difficulties, asequelae of sports injuries; new chapters on social issues and systems of care; and the full range of treatment modalities, including a chapter on alternative therapies. |
