Handbook of Neurorehabilitation and Principles of Neurology

About this book

Le patologie neurologiche sono sempre più diffuse, richiedono protocolli riabilitativi sempre più raffinati e che siano basati su evidenze scientifiche. I deficit prodotti da queste patologie possono produrre una compromissione del sistema nervoso, alterandone le funzioni e determinando differenti gradi di disabilità. La neuroriabilitazione prevede dunque l'impiego di sofisticate tecniche diagnostiche e l'applicazione di protocolli di riabilitazione funzionale dei deficit volti a ottenere un ridimensionamento di specifiche disabilità. Handbook of Neurorehabilitation and Principles of Neurology è un volume suddiviso in quattro parti; la prima e la seconda, di carattere più propedeutico, sono rispettivamente dedicate alle basi neurobiologiche della neuroriabilitazione, e ai principi generali della neuroriabilitazione motoria e cognitiva. La terza parte è invece dedicata alle complesse questioni che riguardano l'organizzazione dei servizi erogati ai pazienti. L'ultima parte, decisamente la più ampia, contempla tutte le patologie neurologiche che meritano un trattamento riabilitativo. Ogni singola categoria nosologica viene presentata considerando, dapprima, i criteri diagnostici e, poi, illustrando i protocolli riabilitativi maggiormente indicati per ottenere la riduzione dei deficit e delle disabilità. Il volume, scritto da specialisti e dedicato a tutti gli operatori che lavorano in istituzioni biomediche che erogano servizi dedicati alla riabilitazione neurologica, ha il pregio di delineare "lo stato dell'arte" e di offrire protocolli supportati dalle evidenze scientifiche prodotte dalle più recenti ricerche in ambito clinico e neuroscientifico. Neurological conditions are increasingly widespread, requiring progressively more refined rehabilitation protocols based on scientific evidence. The deficits produced by these conditions can impair the nervous system, altering its functions and causing varying degrees of disability. Neurorehabilitation therefore involves the use of sophisticated diagnostic techniques and the application of protocols for functional rehabilitation of deficits, aimed at reducing specific disabilities. Handbook of Neurorehabilitation and Principles of Neurology is split into four parts; parts one and two are more propaedeutic in nature and focus respectively on the neurobiological basis of neurorehabilitation and the general principles of motor and cognitive neurorehabilitation. Part three is devoted to the complex issues concerning the organization of services for patients. The final and by far the largest part covers all the neurological disorders requiring rehabilitative treatment. Each individual nosological category is presented by first considering the diagnostic criteria and then illustrating the most suitable rehabilitation protocols to obtain a reduction in deficits and disabilities. Written by specialists and aimed at all healthcare professionals working in biomedical institutions that provide neurological rehabilitation services, the book has the merit of outlining 'the state of the art' and proposing evidence-based protocols supported by the latest research in the clinical and neuroscientific field.
