商品簡介
Lewis (neurology, Rush U.) explains how to perform neurological examination while understanding the purposes of its different components. He describes the role of the neurological history and the localization and mechanisms of neurological disease and explains examinations for mental status, cranial nerves, motor strength and tone, sensation (including Romberg testing), cerebellar function, reflex, and gait--as well as the process of tying all these examinations together. He then describes examinations in common clinical practice, such as for comatose patients or those with altered mental status, dizziness, headache, movement disorders, transient symptoms, or visual symptoms, and those suspected of having had a spinal cord injury or stroke. The book is illustrated with line drawings and photographs. Annotation c2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
