520			_aRecognizing patterns of disease can be the first step to successful management of the child with a neurological problem; this is emphasized by the authors throughout the book. Their concise, precise account reflects the remarkable recent advances in pediatric neurology and related disciplines, while stressing the fundamentals of clinical examination and history taking in reaching an accurate diagnosis. The book begins with a detailed discussion of neurological examination techniques and the basic formulation of differential diagnoses and management, using neuroradiology, electrophysiology, cerebrospinal fluids, genetic and metabolic testing. The second section of the book follows a problem-based approach, just as diseases present in the real world. It employs practical, symptom- and sign-based strategies for virtually all conditions encountered by the practitioner. The final section on neurological emergencies recognizes that such conditions present first to someone other than a pediatric neurologist. This new color handbook is illustrated throughout by a wealth of top-quality clinical photos and imaging, and is of interest to pediatric neurologists, general pediatricians, primary care physicians and emergency physicians, in training and practice. _bCommon terms and phrases: abnormalities acid acute affected Angelman syndrome arrow assessment associated ataxia atrophy autosomal behavior Bell’s palsy bilateral brain brainstem causes cerebral child childhood children or adolescents chromosome CLINICAL FEATURES clinician cognitive congenital cortical cranial nerve deficiency detect developmental delay diagnosis diplopia disease disorders dose dysfunction dystonia dystrophy encephalitis encephalopathy epilepsy evaluation facial function gait gene genetic head headaches hearing loss hemorrhage hydrocephalus hypotonia imaging impairment infants infection injury intracranial language lesion Levetiracetam lumbar puncture malformations meningitis metabolic mg/kg mg/kg/day microcephaly migraine mitochondrial months movement MRI showing muscle mutations myoclonus myotonic dystrophy neonatal neuroimaging neurological examination neuropathy newborn normal occur onset optic nerve optic neuritis papilledema patients pattern pediatric peripheral protein reflexes result Rett syndrome seizures sensory serum sleep spinal cord status epilepticus stroke symptoms syndrome testing textbox therapy trauma treatment tumors typically usually virus visual weakness
