Une présentation complète, théorique, pratique et éthique de la Stimulation basale, de sa conception par Andreas Fröhlich dans les années 1970 à nos jours. La stimulation basale est une approche humaniste développée par Andreas Fröhlich en Allemagne dans les années 1970. Les fondements théoriques neuro-développementaux, psychologiques, corporels et sensoriels de cette approche permettent une meilleure compréhension des personnes en situation de handicap grave et favorisent un accompagnement centré sur les besoins et les ressources de ces personnes et de leurs proches. La stimulation basale invite les professionnels concernés à se questionner sur leur savoir-faire (leur pratique) mais également sur leur savoir-être (leur posture), à travailler sur leur représentation de la personne en situation de handicap sévère (compétences et ressources), à amener une démarche introspective, à accepter de ne pas avoir de résultats immédiats (les recettes n'existent pas !), à être présent dans la relation (empathie, attention, temporalité), à se sentir responsable et à s'intégrer dans un travail d'équipe (pluridisciplinarité, transdisciplinarité).

Clinical applications of neurostimulation or neuromodulation are experiencing rapid growth, driven by an evolution in neurotechnologies, the limitations of pharmacotherapy, and an improving understanding of brain physiology. New methods are promising for intractable or marginally tractable cognitive diseases and for adjunct therapies, as they offer greatly improved spatial and temporal resolution, thereby promising greater specificity and quicker recovery from disease. This book includes up-to-date and in-depth studies of many of these therapies, with chapters addressing their use in epilepsy, spasticity, pain, neurodegeneration, and spinal cord dysfunctions, among others, illustrating their versatility and therapeutic promise for cognitive dysfunction.

Electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) is a psychiatric treatment involving the induction of a seizure through the transmission of electricity in the brain. Because of exploitation movies and greatly heightened drug company promotional activities ECT was used less frequently in the 1980s and 1990s. Eventually these movies were understood as unrealistic. Now these drugs are increasingly recognized as dangers to body health. Because of recent refinements and a far better scientific understanding of the clinical procedures and mechanisms underpinning ECT, this treatment modality has seen a resurgence in use and widespread appreciation of its safety. This book is the new definitive reference on electroconvulsive and neuromodulation therapies. It comprehensively covers the scientific basis and clinical practice of ECT as well as comparisons between ECT and medication therapies including the new generation of antipsychotic drugs. It also provides readers with administrative perspectives and specific details for the management of this modality in clinical practice. The new forms of nonconvulsive electrical and magnetic brain stimulation therapy are also covered in detail, in a separate section. The chapter authors are leading scholars and clinicians.
