ISBN: 9798174959958 - essential tremor: what actually works: why the diagnosis gets missed for parkinson's, why your pills only help half the time, and the new incisionless procedure changing the answer (6 risultati)

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Essential tremor is the most common movement disorder in adults - and it is still routinely mistaken for early Parkinson's disease.For patients, and sometimes for their own doctors, a shaking hand and Parkinson's disease get run together. They are not the same condition, they do not behave the same way, and they are not treated the same way. This book starts by fixing that: how to tell the two apart, in the specific, plain language a neurologist actually uses in the exam room.For thirty to sixty percent of patients, the two oldest tremor medications - propranolol and primidone - still work well, and this book says so plainly rather than talking around it. For the rest, still shaking after doing everything right, it explains what has genuinely changed in recent years: an incisionless procedure now used safely into a patient's eighties, and a surgical option that has been substantially refined.Written by a practicing neurologist, this book is built to be read start to finish or used as a reference at each stage of the condition.Inside: - How to tell essential tremor from Parkinson's disease, in the exact details doctors use- A side-by-side comparison of every medication, including real trial dropout rates- Why the deep brain stimulation target for essential tremor is different from the one used for Parkinson's disease- Focused ultrasound and deep brain stimulation, compared honestly - what each can do, and for whom- Balance, falls, and the daily-life adaptations that make a real difference- What to tell your children about their own risk, and when genetic counseling actually helps- Head and voice tremor, a pattern most books on this topic barely mention- The emotional weight of a visible tremor, and when it's worth asking for help- What real research - not hype - suggests is coming nextThis book does not argue for having a procedure over medication. Its purpose is to show, honestly and side by side, that most patients do well on medication alone - and that the rest now have an option that didn't exist a decade ago.Tae Ho Guak, MD has practiced medicine for thirty years and neurology for twenty-five, and serves on the clinical faculty of the Catholic University of Korea College of Medicine.Educational only.
