Seizure and Epilepsy Care
The Pocket Epileptologist
Epilepsy Overview
Epilepsy is a frequently encountered disease, affecting 1-2% of the population, but one that is often mistreated due to misunderstandings of specific diagnoses and treatments.
Manual Purpose
This practical manual provides a succinct and clinically relevant reference of routine clinical epilepsy care.
Focus Areas
The book is designed around the four main aspects of an epilepsy patient’s care: first seizure, inpatient epilepsy care, outpatient epilepsy care, and diagnostic modalities.
Key Content
These four aspects are carefully delineated to illustrate the key differences in best practice management. Rational use of EEG and imaging testing is thoroughly covered to guide improved utility of these results. Caring for the mental health of epilepsy patients is also covered, as this is pertinent at every stage and location of epilepsy patient care.
Intended Audience
An excellent resource for neurology trainees at the resident, fellow, and medical student level as well as advanced practice providers.
