Handbook of Stroke Prevention in Clinical Practice

Despite major advances in the understanding of stroke mechanisms that have occurred over the past quarter century, stroke continues to rank among the leading causes of death and disability worldwide.
This concise survey of stroke and stroke prevention contains all the up-to-date resources that a physician needs everyday in the office to assess and treat patients at high risk of stroke. The authors isolate the individual areas where intervention can help reduce stroke risk, provide background data on the major risk factors (hypertension, lipids, diabetes, tobacco, and alcohol), and offer practical advice on lifestyle issues, such as diet, vitamin use, and exercise. Among the therapies fully discussed are lipid management, antithrombotic therapy, hormonal therapy, stenting, and angioplasty.
