For the longest time, neuroendovascular procedures have been done
through the femoral artery (TFA) located in the thigh and groin
region. Over the last decade, interventional cardiologists have
pioneered a newer approach: by utilizing the radial artery in the
wrist to access the arterial system, a new procedure has been
employed: radial access. Numerous studies and randomized controlled
trials have demonstrated this to be a safer way of performing
endovascular procedures, and a majority of the interventional
cardiac procedures are performed via radial access. The
neurointerventional community, however, has been slow to adopt this
innovation. The radial access innovation is finally making its way
to the neurointerventional community. Radial Access for
Neurointervention has all the literature supporting illustrating
how radial access is useful to the neuro community. Detailed
chapters describe the techniques of radial access including
positioning the patient on the table, driving the microcatheters
intracranially, aneurysms treatment, AVM/AVF embolizations,
complications management, and more. Readily enhanced throughout
with pictures and movies, this first-of-its-kind book will guide
neurointerventionalists to transition their practices to radial
first.
Bill Robinson helps Christian leaders understand how to provide
effective leadership by highlighting five qualities that
characterized the leadership style of Jesus. He presents convincing
arguments that when leaders emulate these qualities, they will
inspire and empower the people they have been called to lead.
Reflection and discussion questions and assessment questions make
this ideal for group use. Conversational in tone and seasoned with
real-life stories from his own successes and failures as a leader,
Robinson helps Christian leaders wrestle with four questions that
emerge from John's introduction of Jesus, "and the word became
flesh and dwelt among us...." * Jesus dwelt with those he led, how
can I be closer to those I lead? * Jesus disciples beheld him, how
can I be more transparent with those I lead? * The glory of Jesus
was a reflection of his father, am I seeking my own glory? * Jesus
led with grace and truth, how can I lead with grace and truth? The
Incarnate Leader is indispensable reading for anyone in a position
of leadership - whether in a church setting, corporation, school
board, or home. The book is packaged as a short one-evening read,
similar to other popular business books.
Imaging the Addicted Brain, the latest volume in the International
Review of Neurobiology series will appeal to neuroscientists,
clinicians, psychologists, physiologists, and pharmacologists. Led
by an internationally renowned editorial board, this important
serial publishes both eclectic volumes made up of timely reviews
and thematic volumes that focus on recent progress in a specific
area of neurobiology research. This volume focusses on the imaging
of the brain addicted to food, gambling, tobacco, and opiates.
In a congressional office, the term casework refers to the response
or services that Members of Congress provide to constituents who
request assistance. Each year, thousands of constituents turn to
Members of Congress with a wide range of requests, from the simple
to the complex. Members and their staffs help constituents deal
with administrative agencies by acting as facilitators, ombudsmen,
and, in some cases, advocates. In addition to serving individual
constituents, some congressional offices also consider as casework
liaison activities between the federal government and local
governments, businesses, communities, and nonprofit organizations.
Members of Congress determine the scope of their constituent
service activities. Casework is conducted for various reasons,
including a broadly held understanding among Members and staff that
casework is integral to the representational duties of a Member of
Congress. Casework activities may also be viewed as part of an
outreach strategy to build political support, or as an evaluative
stage of the legislative process. Constituent inquiries about
specific policies, programs, or benefits may suggest areas where
government programs or policies require oversight or legislative
consideration. One challenge to congressional casework is the
widely held public perception that Members of Congress can initiate
a broad array of actions resulting ...
