Book description
This book provides the contemporary, caring guidance you need to
diagnose and manage seizures in a young patient. Beginning with an
overview of the classification of seizure syndromes, the authors take a
practical approach to a common but complex clinical challenge. Aimed at
both professionals and trainees in neurology, this book will also be a
useful guide for all primary health professionals caring for pediatric
patients with this condition. It is intended as a foundation for further
study into pediatric epilepsy and to serve as a quick, up-to-date
reference for the recognition, diagnosis, basic understanding,
evaluation and management of this condition in children and adolescents.
