OverviewA description of the ways in which cardiac surgery affects the brain, and a discussion of how and why brain dysfunction occurs. Guidance on treatment and, crucially, prevention is included. Special emphasis is given to clinical investigation of the patient and assessment of risk factors. Intraoperative monitoring is acknowledged as being particularly significant for neurological outcome, and the authors suggest measures for minimizing risks during this period. Separate chapters examine cerebral safety in transplant surgery and in children. Full Product DetailsAuthor: Stanton P Newman , Michael J G Harrison , Stanton P. Newman , Michael J.G.
