Spinal Cord Medicine-3판

머리말

In this comprehensive, clinically directed, reference for the diagnosis and treatment of persons with spinal cord
injury and related disorders, editors of the two leading texts on spinal cord injury (SCI) medicine have joined
together to develop a singular premier resource for professionals in the field. Spinal Cord Medicine, Third Edition
draws on the expertise of seasoned editors and experienced chapter authors to produce one collaborative volume with
the most up-to-date medical, clinical, and rehabilitative knowledge in spinal cord injury management across the
spectrum of care.

This jointly configured third edition builds on the foundation of both prior texts to reflect the breadth and depth
of the specialty. Containing 60 state-of-the-art chapters, the book is divided into sections covering introduction and
assessment, acute injury management and surgical considerations, medical management, neurological and musculoskeletal
care, rehabilitation, recent research advances, system-based practice, and special topics. New and expanded content
focuses on the significant changes in the epidemiology of traumatic injury, the classification of SCI, and the latest
medical treatments of multiple medical complications. In addition, chapters discuss new surgical considerations in
acute and chronic SCI and the many advances in technology that impact rehabilitation and patients’ overall quality
of life.
