The Mayo Clinic Critical and Neurocritical Care Board Review 2nd edition offers the latest updates from The Neurocritical Care Board Examination, uniquely combining general intensive care with neurocritical care. This comprehensive volume, authored by experienced consultants in neurointensive and medical intensive care, is the first to integrate both fields into a single resource.
Aligned with the key disorders outlined by the UCNS and the American Board of Medical Specialties, this book ensures thorough preparation for the examination. Each chapter delves into basic pathophysiology, major disorders, syndromes, and their management. Given the significant focus on neurology in critical illness and acute brain injury, this book is also an invaluable tool for those preparing for the Critical Care Medicine boards.
Recommended for intensivists, neurointensivists, and fellows in these specialties, this book is an essential resource for mastering the complexities of neurocritical care.
