Die Gehirnerschütterung

A concussion is a common injury. Nevertheless, the clinical assessment of these patients is usually inadequate, as there is no suitable classification for this condition and a guiding therapy is lacking.

This is where the expert team of Gänsslen, Schmehl, and Lüngen comes in: the book provides a practice-oriented presentation of the issues following the initial phase and serves as a guide for diagnosis and therapy in both inpatient and outpatient settings. It outlines the fundamentals of the concussion condition, focusing on a) the pediatric and adolescent situation and b) the elderly population.
