This book provides up-to-date evidence in a concise manner, with the help of comparison charts, algorithms, and consensus guidelines, which otherwise would require large amounts of time to cover in the vast literature. This book is unique as it is geared toward answering specific, hard clinical management questions with the most up-to-date evidence for the question or controversy at hand. In a few specific chapters, it is unable to give a strong consensus recommendation due to the lack of evidence currently available, but still presents sources of evidence for clinicians to individualize care for their patients. It does not provide textbook-type chapters that cover the whole management of a specific pathology, which makes it a great resource for advanced residents or practicing clinicians as it does require some basic knowledge to maximize its value.

Evidence-based medicine is the integration of best research evidence using systematic reviews of the medical literature and then translating it into practice by selecting treatment options for specific cases based on the best research. Clinicians rely on the availability of evidence and accordingly take decisions to provide best treatment to their patients. Clinical management of neurologically compromised patients is challenging and varied; for this reason, treating physicians including neuroanesthesiologists are always in search of best available evidence for patient management and care.   \u003ci\u003eEssentials of Evidence-Based Practice of Neuroanesthesia and Neurocritical Care\u003c\/i\u003e highlights the various controversies that exist in the practice of neuroanesthesia and provides conclusive evidence-based solutions. This comprehensive resource succinctly discusses evidence-based practice of neuroanesthesia based on systematic reviews in clinical neuroscience research. Topics include neurophysiology: ICP or CPP thresholds; neuropharmacology: intravenous or inhalational anesthetics; and neuromonitoring: ICP monitoring. Evidence-based practice is now an integral part of neuroscience, and this book will help residents and trainees gain knowledge to apply it to their practice.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eEndorsements\/Reviews: \u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\"Evidence based practice is facilitating changes at a rapid pace in neuroanesthesia and neurocritical care practice.
