This book takes a novel approach to fundamental neurology that bridges the gap between the classroom and the patient it teaches students and residents how to arrive at a presumptive diagnosis in an efficient manner. Beginning with the initial approach to the neurologic patient, the book directs the reader in getting relevant information from the history and neurologic examination. A NeurAxis chart and a What Could the Problem Be? chapter help the reader make sense of the history and examination findings and quickly consider the diagnostic possibilities. Case studies encourage readers to apply this approach to real patients.
My preceptor gave me this to read for my rotation, so I’ve been reading in between patients and it’s been helpful with asking the right questions during history and with forming differentials quickly. It also has case studies at the end to get you to apply the lessons taught throughout the book
Забавни и готини илюстрации! Приятен за четене учебник, почти колкото художествена литература. 4/5, защото подценяват уменията на специализанта или може би това е нивото в чужбина? Не знам. В България специализантът в повечето случаи върши повече работа, знае повече, старае се и се отнася по-сериозно към всеки случай от специалиста, който става немарлив и безразличен с времето. Разбира се, нерядко има и изключения в двете посоки, но това е общият случай.
