Coma and Disorders of Consciousness: An Overview

Coma and Disorders of consciousness (DoC) result from disruptions of neural systems and connections that regulate arousal and awareness. These terms encompass a spectrum of severity of illness due to a variety of modes and mechanisms of injury and lead to an enormous burden of morbidity and mortality. Additionally, Coma and DoC lead to a tremendous economic burden. For perspective, per 2010 USA data, the Center for Disease Control and Prevention estimated a societal cost of over $76 billion dollars from traumatic brain injury alone!

Handbook of Neurological Therapy

This is a practical book on neurological therapy. It is aimed at giving concise and updated answers to busy practicing clinicians in the clinic, ward, or emergency department. An evidence-based approach is used, but when there is no evidence or the data are inconclusive, an expert opinion is always given in order to meet the expectations of the reader. All neurological conditions, common and less common, are discussed; each chapter has a similar format, and contains an initial brief introduction on the epidemiology and clinical features of each disease. The therapy is then discussed, including pharmacological and non-pharmacological, with wide use of Tables & Figures. Flowcharts are also included in most of the chapters.

Neuroprotection in Critical Care and Perioperative Medicine

Clinicians caring for patients are challenged by the task of protecting the brain and spinal cord in high-risk situations. These include post-cardiac arrest, critical care settings, and complex procedural and surgical care. This is the first clinical text that comprehensively covers the various types of neural injury encountered in critical care and perioperative contexts, and neuroprotective strategies to optimize clinical outcomes.

The Ethical Governance of Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning in Healthcare

This book explores the ethical governance of Artificial Intelligence (AI) & Machine Learning (ML) in healthcare. AI/ML usage in healthcare as well as our daily lives is not new. However, the direct, and oftentimes long-term effects of current technologies, in addition to the onset of future innovations, have caused much debate about the safety of AI/ML. On the one hand, AI/ML has the potential to provide effective and efficient care to patients, and this sways the argument in favor of continuing to use AI/ML; but on the other hand, the dangers (including unforeseen future consequences of the further development of the technology) leads to vehement disagreement with further AI/ML usage. Due to its potential for beneficial outcomes, the book opts to push for ethical AI/ML to be developed and examines various areas in healthcare, such as big data analytics and clinical decision-making, to uncover and discuss the importance of developing ethical governance for AI/ML in this setting.

Modern Monitoring in Anesthesiology and Perioperative Care

Close monitoring of patients during anesthesia is crucial for ensuring positive treatment outcomes and patient safety. The increasing availability of new technologies and the repurposing of older monitors means more patient data is at anesthesiologists' fingertips than ever before. However, this flood of options can be overwhelming. A practical resource for understanding this array of clinical monitoring options in anesthesia, this important text focuses on real-world applications in anesthesia and perioperative care. Reviewing the evidence for improved patient outcomes for monitoring technology, neurological monitoring, echocardiography systems and ultrasound are amongst the techniques covered in a head-to-toe approach. Statistics used by manufacturers to gain approval for their technology are discussed, as well as the under-appreciated risks associated with monitoring such as digital distraction. Future monitoring technologies including wearable systems are explored in depth. Focusing on applied practice, this book is an essential text for front-line healthcare professionals in anesthesia.
