Summary "This second edition of Head Injury contains detailed coverage of basic mechanisms and investigations, and has been fully revised and updated with increased clinical content and particular emphasis on the fast-moving areas of neuromonitoring and neuroprotection." "The book provides a complete management framework for traumatic brain injury, with sections on the mechanisms of injury, measuring and monitoring the injury, and treatment. New chapters include pediatric head injury, missile wounds, outcome prediction and brain death, and detailed guidelines-based management algorithms are provided in the appendices." "This is an essential guide for traumatologists, neurosurgeons, anesthetists, and intensivists managing patients with severe traumatic brain injury, and is also an integrated reference framework for all researchers, physicians and scientists in this field."--BOOK JACKET
