Описание: This book is a derivative of Dr. Miller’s well-regarded Cerebral Palsy and focuses on rehabilitation techniques. The book discusses the theory and techniques used by physical and occupational therapists, and also provides suggestions for implementing an Individual Education Plan. Tables and algorithms are included to help in the decision-making process for determining what treatment would be most beneficial. Chapters in section one deal with fundamental aspects of cerebral palsy management, from understanding motor impairment, to evaluating equipment use, to navigating the relationship with the families of patients. In section two, physical therapists cover specific rehabilitation techniques, including neurodevelopment therapy, hippotherapy, and assistive devices. On the accompanying CD there are more than 100 case studies, as well as videos of children with gait disorders.

Описание: The book has been designed to provide readers with an understanding of cerebral palsy (CP) as a developmental as well as a neurological condition. It details the nature of CP, its causes and its clinical manifestations. Using clear, accessible language (supported by an extensive glossary) the authors have blended current science with metaphor both to explain the biomedical underpinnings of CP and to share their awareness that there is much that can be done to promote child and family development, enhance the capabilities of young people with CP, empower their families, and chart a course into adulthood. The authors have reviewed classification and have emphasised the wide range of functional impairments that are seen in both children and adults with cerebral palsy. In doing so they have used the ICF framework and have described the range of interventions that may be applicable to people with cerebral palsy whilst emphasising that the condition is lifelong and that promotion of adaptation is a key component to understanding its nature and effects. Essential reading for parents and carers of those with cerebral palsy, clinicians, paediatricians, neurologists, occupational therapists and physiotherapists.

Описание: The only book to deal specifically with the treatment of gait problems in cerebral palsy, this comprehensive, multi-disciplinary volume will be invaluable for all those working in the field of cerebral palsy and gait (neurologists, therapists, physiatrists, orthopaedic and neurosurgeons, and bioengineers). The book is divided into two parts.

Описание: The medical treatment and education of children with cerebral palsy is complex and involves a diverse range of professionals. Moreover, there are a number of different approaches for treating pediatric musculoskeletal impairments, such as therapy, orthotics, and surgery. Dr. Miller’s valuable resource helps members of the medical team navigate the complexity of cerebral palsy care. Readers will become familiar with treatments that fall outside of their own disciplines while also benefiting from a review of current practices in their own fields. This comprehensive reference outlines the etiology of cerebral palsy and presents a description of muscle tone and movement problems. Dr. Miller discusses the theory and techniques used by physical and occupational therapists, and he provides suggestions for implementing an Individual Education Plan (IEP). Since the text focuses on improving decision making, recommended treatment algorithms address common questions, such as how to select equipment. Comprehensive coverage of understanding abnormal gaits, as well as the use of braces and wheel chairs, is incorporated into the text. Dr. Miller’s invaluable resource helps members of the medical team navigate the complexity of cerebral palsy care by explaining unfamiliar treatments that fall outside of readers' own disciplines while also reviewing current practices central to their chosen specialties. The comprehensive book examines the etiology of cerebral palsy and the theory and techniques used by surgeons, physical therapists, and occupational therapists. Recommended treatment algorithms address common questions in order to improve decision making. A companion CD-ROM includes videos of children with walking problems and more than 400 interactive study questions.Cerebral Palsy Management: The Child, the Parent, and the Goal; Etiology, Epidemiology, Pathology, and Diagnosis; Patient Management; Neurologic Control of the Musculoskeletal System; Therapy, Education, and Other Treatment Modalities; Durable Medical Equipment; Gait; Treatment of the Upper Extremity; Spinal Deformity; Hip Disease; Knee, Leg, and Foot.- Rehabilitation Techniques: Neurodevelopmental Therapy; Strengthening Exercises; Balance Interventions; Electrical Stimulation Techniques; Hippotherapy; Aquatic Therapy; Assistive Devices; Seating Systems; M.O.V.E.TM (Mobility Opportunities Via Education) Curriculum; Occupational Therapy Upper Extremity Evaluation; Intrathecal Baclofen Pumps.- Surgical Techniques: Upper Extremity Procedures; Spinal Procedures; Hip Procedures; Knee Operative Procedures; Foot and Ankle Procedures.

Описание:

A survey of the latest research, covering such topics as plasticity in the adult brain and the underlying mechanisms of plasticity.

The notion that neurons in the living brain can change in response to experience -- a phenomenon known as "plasticity" -- has become a major conceptual issue in neuroscience research as well as a practical focus for the fields of neural rehabilitation and neurodegenerative disease. Early work dealt with the plasticity of the developing brain and demonstrated the critical role played by sensory experience in normal development. Two broader themes have emerged in recent studies: the plasticity of the adult brain (one of the most rapidly developing areas of current research) and the search for the underlying mechanisms of plasticity -- explanations for the cellular, molecular, and epigenetic factors controlling plasticity. Many scientists believe that achieving a fundamental understanding of what underlies neuronal plasticity could help us treat neurological disorders and even improve the learning capabilities of the human brain.

This volume offers contributions from leaders in the field that cover all three approaches to the study of cerebral plasticity. Chapters treat normal development and the influences of environmental manipulations; cerebral plasticity in adulthood; and underlying mechanisms of plasticity. Other chapters deal with plastic changes in neurological conditions and with the enhancement of plasticity as a strategy for brain repair.

Описание: Correlating 3-D vasculature with surface and sectional neuroanatomy, this CD-ROM is an interactive electronic atlas that provides a vivid new way to view and study the cerebral vasculature. Comprehensive and accurate displays of the cerebral arteries and veins are skillfully integrated with cortical and ventricular anatomy and triplanar MRI and MRA. You can electronically dissect any of the 365 vessels, arteries and veins or build myriad sub-networks – complete with labels and diameters – which can be saved to an external drive and used as lecture slides. The sophisticated navigation system allows every display to be rotated in multiple planes and viewed from different angles.Highlights-Fully 3-D – with 3-D measurements and stereotactic coordinates-Handy self-testing and assessment mode-Numerous meta-links to background information, variability and useful references – including 215 pages of text and 100 images derived from Thieme material-All vessels segmented and clearly labeled with their name and diameter – aspects often difficult to see in textbooks-Color coding for rapid identification of the different subgroups and branches of the arterial and venous systemsThe Cerefy® Atlas of Cerebral Vasculature is a powerful tool for every student, practitioner and educator in the clinical and basic neurosciences, including neurosurgeons, neuroradiologists and interventional radiologists.Please visit www.cerefy.com, the Brain Atlas related web site.
