Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - It is both a pleasure and a privilege to be invited to contribute a foreword to this book, which deserves - and needs - to be read by virtually everyone who is concerned with the treatment and subse quent welfare of the victims of severe injuries of the brain. Some friends, relatives and workmates might be helped by reading some parts of it, but, if the book has the effect it deserves to have on therapists, nurses, doctors, and others working in both hospitals and the community, these laymen will be suitably informed and assisted by one or more members of the necessarily large therapeutic team. The improvements in methods of resuscitation that have taken place during the last 40 years or so have abolished the previously fatalistic readiness to accept that a week or two in coma after a head injury was virtually a sentence to death from pneumonia. After it had become possible to save lives it gradually became clear that survival of the patient was not necessarily followed by recovery of the brain and that the price of success, in saving lives, was a popula tion of cerebral cripples that was increasing at the rate of 1000 or more a year throughout the country. Although this figure has remained about the same for more than 20 years, there has been a great improvement in the amount of interest, the standard of care and the quality of results that are being achieved.…

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Part of a series aimed at therapists concerned with rehabilitation in a very broad sense, this book is based upon the author's experiences as part of a team caring for victims of severe injuries of the brain paying particular attention to the disturbances of behaviour. The methods of pioneers in this field were based on recognizing that it is as necessary to stimulate an injured brain in order to help it to recover as it is to stimulate a normal brain to enable it to develop - a process that is referred to as "exercising the mental muscles". In this guide the author explains that therapists need to start treating patients while they are still receiving intensive care, and nurses in these units, as well as those in ordinary wards, need to know how closely their work should be intergrated with that of others. Although the book will be of particular interest to occupational and physical therapists, psychologists and a social workers it will also be of use to doctors as clear evidence of the range and duration of methods of treatment required and of the fact that they have a part to play long after the patients leave hospital. It is both a pleasure and a privilege to be invited to contribute a foreword to this book, which deserves - and needs - to be read by virtually everyone who is concerned with the treatment and subse quent welfare of the victims of severe injuries of the brain.
