EEG : Neurology and Critical Care

The third volume of the series of Atlases deals with the use and usefulness of electroencephalography (EEG) in neurology. While EEG is universally recognized as a first-order investigation method in epilepsy (see Volume 2), and as an important contributor in sleep medicine, practical neurology has tended to neglect the value of this classical and established neurophysiological tool. A rich, extensively commented and analyzed collection of EEG plates is presented here. The reader will be compelled to remember that EEG is the easiest way to assess parameters like state of vigilance, risk of seizure activity, type and degree of functional impairment, in a very clinical and practical setting. Th...

Atlas of Electroencephalography

The aim of this extensively illustrated work is to better the knowledge of visual analysis of EEGs for neurologists and other specialists who use electroencephalography as well as EEG technologists. This first volume covers the scope of the main features of physiological EEG wake and sleep activities in children and adults, activation procedures and the most commonly found artefacts. Indeed, a more thorough knowledge of these elements is necessary so as not to misinterpret them as pathological traits.

EEG - The Epilepsies

Fully revised and updated, this second edition of the second volume of the Atlases of electroencephalography series includes more than 2/3 new high-quality digital figures. A new Classification approach to epileptic seizures and to the epilepsies became official in 2017. Several aspects in terms of terminology have been included in this book and most of the chapters have been rewritten. The second volume of this series on the practical use and interpretation of EEG focuses on epilepsies in their diversity. It is richly illustrated, and each EEG plate is analyzed in order to highlight the most significant elements to be used both for the diagnosis and interpretation. The originality of this t...

EEG : Awake and Sleep

Fully updated and revised, the 3rd edition of the Atlas of Electroencephalography volume 1: Awake and Sleep EEG, activation procedures and artifacts retains the format and presentation that made the previous editions successful. It is the most comprehensive EEG atlas on activation procedures, artifacts and normal EEG, covering the full spectrum of normal and unusual patterns observed during wakefulness and sleep, in children and adults. It will significantly help the visual analysis of EEG by neurologists and other specialists as well as technologists. Electroencephalograms are shown in their native format, exactly as they appear in daily practice. Each plate is analyzed, in order to highlight the most significant elements to be used in diagnosis and interpretation. This 3rd edition includes a total of 180 EEG plates. Philippe Gélisse and Arielle Crespel are neurologists running the Epilepsy Unit at the Montpellier University Hospital, in France. Both have extensive national and international experience in teaching about EEG and they have written numerous scientific publications in the field.

Antiepileptic Drugs

The thoroughly revised, updated Fifth Edition of this classic is the m ost comprehensive, current, and authoritative reference on all anticon vulsants available today. This edition features detailed profiles of n ewer drugs--including levetiracetam, oxcarbazepine, tiagabine, topiram ate, and zonisamide--and new chapters on use of antiepileptic drugs in children and during pregnancy. Drugs are covered in alphabetical ord er and in an easy-to-follow format: mechanisms of action; chemistry, b iotransformation, and pharmacokinetics; interactions; clinical efficac y and use; and adverse effects. Coverage of clinical use includes none pileptic and psychiatric disorders where appropriate. This edition has been trimmed to manageable size by shortening chapters on older, less frequently used drugs.

Epileptic Syndromes in Infancy, Childhood and Adolescence - 5th edition

The ultimate reference book : the 5th updated edition of the famous “blue guide”. Incluided : A DVD with new sequences completes each chapter! Epileptology changes. The syndromic approach is completed by an etiological approach, based on the major advances in genetics and functional genetics. New entities have found their place, and a purely descriptive, “electroclinical” approach is no longer adapted in many circumstances. The 5th edition of the Blue Guide includes the most recent advances. It was necessary to justify the physiological, epidemiologic, genetic and therapeutic approaches and to consider them in the light of the new classification efforts, which are still in the making. Nevertheless, the description of epileptic syndromes, both classical and recent, remains at the core of this book.

Prognosis of Epilepsies

The last book on the prognosis of epilepsies was written by Rodin in 1968. For the next 35 years, many original papers or chapters in textbooks were published on this complex topic. Most of these endeavours, reflecting the clinician's highly detailed point of view were based on selected cases with little concern for the epidemiological context or upon the epidemiologist's population-based approach which tends to ignore important clinical details. Until quite recently, fundamental epidemiological aspects of epilepsy, as it is understood by clinicians, have not been explored, and clinicians viewed populationbased epidemiology as relatively irrelevant to their daily practice. This book is divided into two majors parts. Presentations in the first part address methodological issues regarding prognostic studies (including remission and mortality) as well as results from long-term cohort studies. The second part contains presentations on the clinical aspects and prognosis of several individual epilepsy syndromes as well as presentations about the prognosis of status epilepticus and outcome of frontal and temporal lobe surgery.

Syndromes épileptiques de l'enfant et de l'adolescent - 5eme edition

Un DVD inclus avec des séquences vidéos inédites pour chaque chapitre ! L’épileptologie change, et les approches syndromiques sont maintenant complétées par une approche étiologique fondée sur les progrès considérables en génétique. Une approche purement « électro-clinique » n’est plus adaptée aujourd’hui dans bien des cas. Cette 5e édition du « Guide bleu » fait le point sur les plus récents progrès. Ainsi, la structure du livre a un peu évolué, laissant plus de place aux approches : - physiologiques - épidémiologiques - génétiques - thérapeutique Néanmoins, la description des syndromes épileptiques reste au cœur de cet ouvrage. La diversité des contributeurs – coordinateurs et auteurs – confère à ce livre des qualités d’objectivité et de sérieux qui en font la réputation depuis maintenant près de 30 ans.
