This book provides a modern and up to date overview of the
evaluation and management of sports-related neuro trauma. The
primary target audience is the "sports neurosurgeon," who can be
found on the sidelines of collision sports at all levels of play
from high school to professional, or who may care for these
athletes in the acute setting in hospital or the outpatient
clinics. The reach of this book, however, will also extend to
professionals in other fields of medicine due to some topics that
extend outside the typical neurosurgical specialty, ranging from
chiropractic care in the evaluation and treatment of elite athletes
to alternative medical therapies for concussion. The importance of
the emerging "sports neurosurgeon" subspecialty is exemplified by
the adoption of a policy by the National Football League to require
an Unaffiliated Neurotrauma Consultant on-field for player safety.
This policy also speaks to the recent public awareness of the
importance of recognizing and treating sports-related neuro trauma.
This text aims to capitalize on this trend and become a
multi-specialty reference to anyone interested in the field.
Neurosurgical Care of Athletes serves as a comprehensive resource
for physicians and researchers involved in sports-related neuro
trauma. All chapters are prepared by experts in their fields and
include the most up to date scientific and clinical information.
