Patients with neurologic symptoms are frequently seen in the emergency department and require rapid and thorough evaluation. Appropriate assessment with tailored history-taking, localization of the neurological problem, differential diagnosis, focused testing, and urgent treatment when indicated are essential to prevent patient morbidity. Neurological examination and testing of patients are covered in-depth, along with common neurological presentations using a symptom-based approach, such as coma, dizziness and gait disturbance. Specific neurological disorders are also explored, including traumatic brain injury, ischemic stroke and transient ischemic attack and neurotoxicology. Chapters follow a basic outline, including an introduction and a pearls and pitfalls section, providing a succinct overview and key takeaway points for the busy clinician. This well organized handbook will serve as a concise, valued reference for the clinician to use in assisting the evaluation of the most common neurology related emergency department visits.

L'outil entièrement dédié à la prise en charge des urgences neurologiques. Indispensable au quotidien pour la prise de décisions et d'orientation rapides. Les urgences neurologiques constituent une part importante de l'activité des structures d'urgence. Au-delà de leur fréquence et de leur diversité, les pathologies rencontrées doivent être connues des praticiens car elles sont susceptibles d'entraîner une morbi-mortalité non négligeable si la prise en charge médicale n'est pas optimale dès les premières heures. Pour mieux guider le lecteur dans l'urgence, cet ouvrage est structuré en deux parties principales : · la première aborde les urgences neurologiques de façon thématique : pathologies neurovasculaires, neurotraumatiques, neuro-infectieuses, neurodysimmunitaires, neurométaboliques et épileptiques ; · la deuxième partie est synthétique et propose une conduite diagnostique et thérapeutique à partir des symptômes neurologiques courants. Confusion mentale, agitation chez le patient dément, complications neurologiques de l'éthylisme, céphalées, vertiges, paralysie faciale, pertes de connaissance brèves, coma, déficits moteurs et/ou sensitifs et mouvements anormaux sont ainsi abordés. Enfin, l'originalité de ce livre à vocation pratique vient aussi d'une dernière partie proposant un Atlas de neuro-imagerie d'urgence. Urg'Neuro est destiné à tous les acteurs des urgences neurologiques : neurologues, urgentistes, réanimateurs, anesthésistes, radiologues, internistes, médecins, internes ou infirmières travaillant en unité de soins intensifs neurologiques, en structure d'urgence ou en réanimation neurologique.
