Sleepwalking
Current Treatment Options in Neurology - Tập 18 - Trang 1-9 - 2016
Valérie Cochen De Cock
Sleepwalking (SW) is a parasomnia, an abnormal behavior occurring during sleep. SW is a non-REM sleep parasomnia, an arousal disorder, like sleep terrors and confusional arousals. SW results from an incomplete arousal from slow-wave sleep, some regions of the cerebral cortex being awake and allowing movement and vision for example and others being asleep, preventing memorization or judgment.

Chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy
Current Treatment Options in Neurology - Tập 5 - Trang 357-364 - 2003
Jonathan S. Katz, David S. Saperstein
Although there are close to 10 randomized trials showing efficacy for prednisone, intravenous immunoglobulin, or plasmapheresis in chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP), large differences in cost, side effect profiles, and ease of use create controversy over the therapy that is best. Most clinicians use intravenous immunoglobulin or prednisone as first-line therapy. Unfortunatel...... hiện toàn bộ
Management of Serotonin Syndrome and Neuroleptic Malignant Syndrome
Current Treatment Options in Neurology - Tập 18 - Trang 1-8 - 2016
Linn E. Katus, Steven J. Frucht
Serotonin syndrome (SS) and neuroleptic malignant syndrome (NMS) can present similarly and range in severity from mild to life-threatening. Although they are easily misdiagnosed, each is distinct clinically and pathophysiologically. It is important to distinguish between the two, as therapeutic options differ. An accurate and thorough medication history plus knowledge of the various clinical prese...... hiện toàn bộ
Treatment of Mitochondrial Disorders
Current Treatment Options in Neurology - Tập 16 - Trang 1-20 - 2014
Sreenivas Avula, Sumit Parikh, Scott Demarest, Jonathan Kurz, Andrea Gropman
While numerous treatments for mitochondrial disorders have been suggested, relatively few have undergone controlled clinical trials. Treatment of these disorders is challenging, as only symptomatic therapy is available. In this review we will focus on newer drugs and treatment trials in mitochondrial diseases, with a special focus on medications to avoid in treating epilepsy and ICU patient with m...... hiện toàn bộ
Neonatal seizures
Current Treatment Options in Neurology - Tập 11 - Trang 405-413 - 2009
Hannah C. Glass, Joseph E. Sullivan
Seizures in neonates are common and often suggest a serious underlying brain injury such as hypoxia-ischemia, stroke, or hemorrhage. There is a lack of evidence regarding optimal monitoring, evaluation, and treatment for newborns with seizures. Prolonged video-electroencephalogram (EEG) is the gold standard for detecting seizures, whereas amplitude-integrated EEG may be a convenient and useful scr...... hiện toàn bộ
Current Update on Treatment Strategies for Idiopathic Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus
Current Treatment Options in Neurology - Tập 21 - Trang 1-24 - 2019
Albert M. Isaacs, Michael A. Williams, Mark G. Hamilton
Idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus (iNPH) is a surgically treatable neurological disorder of the elderly population that is characterized by abnormal ventricular enlargement due to cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) accumulation and gait disturbance, cognitive impairment, or urinary incontinence. The objective of this review is to present the current diagnostic and treatment approaches for iNPH and t...... hiện toàn bộ
Strategies to improve acute stroke care of patients in rural and other geographically dispersed areas
Current Treatment Options in Neurology - Tập 10 - Trang 450-454 - 2008
R. Charles Callison, Enrique C. Leira
The 25% of Americans living in rural areas receive suboptimal stroke care. To eliminate the current disparity in rural acute stroke care, we need a comprehensive plan of education and increased resources targeting all levels of the paradigm. This plan includes improving recognition of stroke in rural areas, rural prehospital emergency services, emergency room care in small hospitals, remote suppor...... hiện toàn bộ
Headache related to brain tumors
Current Treatment Options in Neurology - Tập 8 Số 1 - Trang 21-32 - 2006
Loghin, Monica, Levin, Victor A.
Headache is one of the most common somatic complaints of patients seeking medical care. Most headaches are not of serious cause and can be diagnosed easily with a good history and physical examination. The challenges to the physician are to determine when underlying intracranial pathology may be causing the symptoms and signs, and to identify the few patients in whom a tumor is the cause of the he...... hiện toàn bộ
Treatment options for autonomic neuropathies
Current Treatment Options in Neurology - Tập 8 Số 2 - Trang 119-132 - 2006
Gibbons, Christopher H., Freeman, Roy
Autonomic disorders may present in a varied fashion. Symptoms that may require treatment include orthostatic intolerance, gastrointestinal distress, sudomotor abnormalities, and urologic and sexual dysfunction. Realistic treatment goals should be outlined for patients, with the expectations that symptoms can be improved, but that the disease is unlikely to be cured and long-term therapy may be req...... hiện toàn bộ
