Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

This handbook is a practical and easily accessible guide to the diagnosis and management of headache patients. Geared to both primary care physicians and neurologists, the book presents a systematic approach to diagnosis and offers expert recommendations for treating all types of headaches, including migraine, tension and cluster headaches, headache during pregnancy, headache in children, headaches with onset after age 50, and head and neck trauma. Coverage includes detailed guidelines on the use of new antimigraine drugs that have recently been introduced. The book also includes patient education materials and alternative treatments.

Book News Annotation:

This handbook for physicians offers guidance on diagnosis, concise coverage of primary and secondary headaches, information on drug treatments for migraines, and references for finding additional information. It also includes studies of 39 headaches — both common and uncommon varieties — and chapters specifically addressing first or worst headaches, post-traumatic headaches, headaches in women, and headaches in the aged. Evans is chief of neurology at Park Plaza Hospital. Matthew is director of the Houston Headache Clinic. Both teach in the department of neurology at the University of Texas Medical School, Houston.
