This important new book focuses on the subject of cerebrovascular
accidents. All physical therapists will benefit from this
comprehensive examination of the pathologic and clinical features
of common ischemic and hemorrhagic disorders that may culminate in
the familiar signs and symptoms of stroke. The symptoms, diagnosis,
and treatment alternatives available in the care of stroke patients
are discussed. Each chapter thoroughly addresses various challenges
in the management of stroke patients who are commonly encountered
in hospitals, nursing homes, and rehabilitation settings, giving
the reader an appreciation of the variability of involvement among
stroke patients. The authors present illustrated case studies
emphasizing common clinical situations in which stroke occurs and
discuss the medical and surgical approaches to stroke management,
including risks and complications which may occur following a
stroke. Other issues include the factors underlying strength
deficits in stroke patients, methods for measuring motor deficits,
and causes, evaluation, and treatment of the hemiplegic shoulder.
