    • Inglés
    Practice of Neuroanesthesia in Resource Limited Countries reviews the critical challenges and innovative solutions in delivering neuroanesthesia care within low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). As these regions grapple with a high prevalence of neurological disorders and limited resources, this book delves into the core principles of neuroanesthesia, emphasizing safety, efficacy, and essential monitoring techniques. It addresses the availability of equipment and medications, offering practical alternatives tailored to resource constraints. Special considerations for pediatric populations, trauma management in emergencies, and regional anesthesia techniques are thoroughly examined. This book also emphasizes the importance of postoperative care and neurocritical support, highlighting strategies for effective recovery in resource-limited settings. Furthermore, it advocates for building local capacity through training, education, and collaborative efforts, underscoring the role of simulation and remote learning. With contributions from authors across various LMICs, this comprehensive resource aims to enhance the practice of neuroanesthesia and improve patient outcomes in regions where healthcare systems face significant challenges.

    • Inglés
    Aggressive Behavior of People with Autism and other Intellectual and Developmental Disability explores the primary factors influencing the occurrence of aggression in autistic people, offering practical suggestions for improving outcomes. Topics covered include understanding the effects of neurodevelopmental disorders, multiple factors that frequently impact the risk for aggression, common medical and neurological influences, and the effects of trauma. The book will also introduce a new model for integrating multiple influences into a contextual, functional behavior assessment.While people with autism and other intellectual and developmental disabilities receive extensive services for their behavioral health needs, many continue to struggle and lack a positive quality of life. This book covers these occurrences and the primary factors governing aggression and other externalizing behaviors.

  • Epigenetic Mechanisms in Brain Physiology and Disorders
