Informationen zum Autor Gloria M. Galloway Professor of Clinical Neurology, Ohio State University Medical Center, Columbus, OH Klappentext This is the first book to comprehensively address neurodiagnostic testing for the broad scope of clinical neurophysiologic disorders in the pediatric population. The field of clinical neurophysiology has expanded exponentially with the development of new approaches! techniques! studies! and certifications. This book bridges the gap in clinical information available for practitioners who use neurophysiologic techniques to evaluate and treat children and adolescents with epilepsy! sleep! neuromuscular! and autonomic disorders but may not have subspecialty training in each individual field. Zusammenfassung This book is designed for the many physicians and other providers who care for younger patients with epilepsy, sleep, neuromuscular, and autonomic disorders. The book focuses on the technical and interpretive specifics unique to this population. It covers the full spectrum of neurophysiologic topics. Inhaltsverzeichnis Contents Contributors Preface 1.
