"Primary Neurologic Care gives you an edge in identifying the neurologic symptoms and disorders most often seen in the primary care setting. The quick-reference format provides information on each disorder, along with its background and etiology, signs and symptoms, diagnostic tests, treatment, and patient education. Discussions of chronic conditions emphasize the control of symptoms and management of the condition. Plus, prevention and education tips help you assist the patient in managing her or her disorder. You'll learn how to effectively perform and interpret neurologic examinations and diagnostic tests, and you'll find indications for referring the patient to a specialist when it is appropriate. A glossary references neurologic terminology that might be unfamiliar to the primary care practitioner, and appendixes include more essential information on resources and drugs that pertain to many common neurologic disorders."--BOOK JACKET.
