Synopsis

The second edition of Sleep Disorders: A Case a Week from Cleveland Clinic continues to offer a practical approach to the introduction of sleep medicine via an easy-to-use and concise volume that uses actual patient cases from the Cleveland Sleep Disorders Clinic. This edition includes new features, such as multiple choice questions, more than 30 enhanced patient and polysomnogram videos, and a wealth of high quality polysomnographic tracings. Printed in 4-color for the first time, this book uses various imaging techniques, like clinically relevant radiography and neuroimaging, in the diagnosis and treatment of sleep disorders, serving as a resource for medical students, residents, and experienced clinicians to hone their diagnostic skills. 52 chapters - a case a week - are written to illustrate the signs and symptoms, diagnostic criteria, workup, and routine treatment of unique patient cases presented to the sleep clinic. With updates covering comprehensive discoveries, an extensive focus on comorbidities, and typical and atypical presentations of sleep disorders, this book is a valuable guide to the latest discoveries in sleep medicine.
