Abstract

Première cause de handicap acquis chez l’adulte, l’accident vasculaire cérébral, ou AVC, peut brutalement faire disparaître ou empêcher, de façon temporaire ou non, un grand nombre de capacités de la vie quotidienne, dans des domaines physiques ou intellectuels très divers : la marche, la déglutition, la planification, la lecture, la préhension, etc. Parce qu’il touche à des savoir-faire acquis, l’AVC peut apparaître comme une atteinte biologique du social qui en efface les effets en réinitialisant les expériences, les compétences et les dispositions, autrement dit comme un accident égalisateur qui annule les différences sociales entre individus. Pourtant, à âge égal et à gravité équivalente des lésions cérébrales, les séquelles ne seront pas les mêmes si le patient est un homme ou une femme, un ouvrier ou un cadre supérieur, si la récupération de ses capacités a une grande ou une moindre valeur aux yeux des acteurs de la rééducation, si l’AVC a laissé intact chez lui un rapport aisé ou difficile aux modalités scolaires d’apprentissage. Pour mettre en évidence et expliquer ces phénomènes, Muriel Darmon a mené une enquête approfondie dans un service de neurologie d’un hôpital universitaire et auprès des différents corps de spécialistes – kinésithérapeutes, ergothérapeutes, orthophonistes, neuropsychologues, etc. – de deux centres de rééducation. En suivant le parcours post-AVC des patients au sein de ces unités et des étonnants « plateaux techniques » conçus pour favoriser leurs réapprentissages, ce livre montre que, par-delà ce qui semble perdu, le social perdure chez les individus et résiste à l’atteinte biologique.

Abstract

Stroke Essentials for Primary Care: A Practical Guide is a must-have resource, offering the essential, practical knowledge required to evaluate and treat stroke patients. While an indispensable guide for primary care clinicians, including family practitioners and medical internists who often assume the care of stroke patients without the aid of a neurologist (primarily in underserved areas), the information contained herein is also an invaluable resource to all physicians in training, especially residents and fellows in neurology, cardiology, and surgery, among others. Stroke Essentials for Primary Care: A Practical Guide provides the latest diagnostic and treatment information that allows for greater clinical confidence. Designed to allow easy access to essential information, most chapters include a quick summary of their content and conclusions. Chapters review information on such topics as distinguishing features of presentation, rapid determination of stroke type, prevention strategies, long-term complications, and special topics that may apply to specific populations. Targeted and easy to read, Stroke Essentials for Primary Care: A Practical Guide is an essential resource for all practitioners in primary care medicine and specialty physicians in training.

Abstract

This updated second edition of Acute Ischemic Stroke: Imaging and Intervention provides a comprehensive account of the state of the art in the diagnosis and treatment of acute ischemic stroke. The basic format of the first edition has been retained, with sections on fundamentals such as pathophysiology and causes, imaging techniques and interventions. However, each chapter has been revised to reflect the important recent progress in advanced neuroimaging and the use of interventional tools. In addition, new chapters are included on the clinical ischemic penumubra and the use of advanced neuroimaging to select patients for neurointerventional procedures. All of the authors are internationally recognized experts and members of the interdisciplinary stroke team at the Massachusetts General Hospital and Harvard Medical School. The text is supported by numerous informative illustrations, and ease of reference is ensured through the inclusion of suitable tables. This book will serve as a unique source of up-to-date information for neurologists, emergency physicians, radiologists and other health care providers who care for the patient with acute ischemic stroke.
