  Diabetic Neurology offers a unique focus on the broad neurological complications of diabetes, bridging the clinical divide between diabetology and neurology with a practitioner-friendly guide for the recognition, investigation and management of diabetic patients with neurological disease. This book provides a comprehensive, practical review of the problems encountered at the interface of diabetes and neurology. The point form format facilitates a thorough summary of the diabetological and neurological approach to patients and their related disease states. The authors of this book bring together their expertise in these shared fields to address the problems neurologists may encounter in diabetic patients and the important neurological issues to consider in diabetes clinics. The emphasis is on adult patients and some topics are deliberately covered in more than one section, depending on the context of the discussion. The book’s three sections provide:     * An overview of diabetes care directed towards neurologists and of neurological basics directed towards diabetologists    * A summary of various neurological presentations, both common and serious, which both specialties must be cognizant of    * A discussion of rare conditions, their neurological and diabetic complications This book is a comprehensive and useful reference for diabetologists, endocrinologists, internists and neurologists.

Patients with degenerative neurological disorders are among ... Read more

Patients with degenerative neurological disorders are among the most handicapped patients in medicine. Many of these diseases are incurable. Expert palliative care is the duty of every neurologist: however, to date, this has not been a standard feature of neurological practice or training. This book helps define a new field, namely palliative care in neurology. It brings together all necessary information for neurologists caring for a patient with advance disease. Palliative care is an approach to the management of patients with life-threatening illness that attempts to enhance comfort, relieve psychosocial and spiritual distress, assure respect for decision making, provide support for the family, and prepare the patient and family for the end of life. This unique book covers each of the many dimensions of palliative care as they relate to patients with advanced neurological disorders. Basic principles of palliative care and specific ethical issues (such as euthanasia, food and hydration and advance directives) are covered. The needs of populations with specific neurological disorders are described and the management of symptoms that are common to all is explored in detail. Each chapter introduces its topic using a case report which may be used directly for teaching purposes. The authors have put together an invaluable resource, which lays the foundation for further research in the field. Minimize

Innovative, multidisciplinary and collaborative practice models are part of the solution to improving access to child neurology care. This is especially critical in light of the rising cost of health care and the need to thoughtfully utilize resources. Telephone management is one strategy for providing care to children with complex chronic illness, but must be done by skilled clinicians with specialized child neurology training. The Association of Child Neurology Nurses has developed a collection of Child Neurology Telephone Encounter Guides with an emphasis on process oriented rather than acute triage and a focus on nursing case and care management. They easily guide the new or less experienced registered nurse, advanced practice clinician (PNP, CNS or PA), rotating medical student or resident efficiently through a child neurology telephone encounter. The educational topic overviews, quick reference pocket guides and data collection tools are ideal for educational training, protocol development and quality management.
