This highly practical book brings the examination of minor
neurological dysfunction developed by Bert Touwen and his
colleagues in Groningen right up to date, which is timely in view
of the increasing interest in and use of this approach. The
approach is a detailed and extensive neurological examination with
the aim of detecting a possible neurobiological basis for learning,
behavioural and motor coordination problems in a child and thus
informing decision-making and management. It provides a refined,
sensitive and age-appropriate technique, designed to take into
account the developmental aspects of the child's rapidly changing
nervous system.
This third edition of Bert Touwen's classic handbook has been
updated by Mijna Hadders-Algra to reflect contemporary clinical
practice. A new chapter assesses the reliability and validity of
the methodology, and the book now includes norms for comparison, as
well as practical management guidelines based on current clinical
practice. Entirely new photographs and diagrams illustrate the
assessment techniques clearly.
The accompanying CD-ROM contains videos illustrating typical and
atypical performance and also provides an electronic assessment
form.
ReadershipPaediatric neurologists, physicians working in
neuropaediatrics, developmental paediatrics, child and adolescent
psychiatry, and paediatric rehabilitation.
