Quick Overview
Manual of Neurocritical Care is aimed to provide a ready-reckoner, and not a textbook, to fellowship students in neurocritical care and all trainees who encounter neuro cases in day-to-day management in their respective intensive care units (ICUs). It is a strictly practical document with minimal or no theory, and the information is provided in the form of flowcharts and algorithms, with a couple of explanatory paragraphs below it. To make the manual easy-to-read, we have attempted to produce a document with a uniform format and a unique style. Our main purpose in writing this manual is to spread knowledge in a nutshell regarding the common issues in neurocritical care.
