Abstract
This book focuses on endovascular methods for resuscitation and trauma management. Written by highly qualified and clinically active physicians from around the world, it shares information gathered over the past decade, providing a comprehensive database of clinical knowledge for a wide range of practicing clinicians and researchers. Moreover, it describes basic methods for vascular access, methods for REBOA (Resuscitative Endovascular Balloon Occlusion of the Aorta), endo-grafts and embolization methods, as well as other, more advanced methods for endovascular and hybrid resuscitation (CPR REBOA, ECHMO etc.) from the pre-hospital to the post-surgical phase. As the body of literature in this field has grown considerably over the past five years, the book also focuses on summarizing what is known, what the clinical and research evidence is, and “how to actually use” the various methods. It will help readers understand basic and advanced modern techniques for bleeding control and modern resuscitation, and how to apply them in clinical practice.
Contents
The Concept of EndoVascular Resuscitation and Trauma Management - Building the EVTM team -- Principles of Modern Trauma Resuscitation -- Endovascular Management of Cervical Vascular Trauma -- Endovascular Management of Thoracic and Abdominal Trauma -- Endovascular Surgery for Extremity Trauma -- Principles of REBOA -- Partial REBOA -- REBOA in Traumatic Brain Injuries -- REBOA-induced Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury -- REBOA in Non-traumatic Cardiac Arrest -- Endovascular Balloon Occlusion in Obstetrical Hemorrhage -- Pre-hospital and Austere EVTM -- Endovascular Embolization in Trauma and Bleeding -- Management of the Unstable Patient during EVTM and REBOA -- ExtraCorporeal Membrane Oxygenation in the Unstable Trauma Patient -- Post-operative Critical Care Management Considerations -- Complications of Endovascular and Hybrid Surgery -- EndoVascular Resuscitation and Trauma Management - Education and Simulation.

Abstract
Ischemic and hemorrhagic strokes are common neurological emergencies. In recent years, endovascular intervention has become a standard of care in treating acute ischemic stroke, aneurysms, and vascular malformations. As a result, noninvasive CT- and MRI-based techniques have been increasingly used in emergency settings. In this context, neurovascular imaging has become an essential part of the curriculum for training emergency radiologists, stroke neurologists, and vascular neurosurgeons. This book provides a comprehensive review of the entire spectrum of emergent neurovascular imaging, with the emphasis on noninvasive CT angiography (CTA), MR angiography (MRA), and perfusion techniques. It is organized into 11 chapters. The first three chapters address the topics of acute stroke imaging, including algorithms based on recent clinical trials and updated American Heart Association stroke guideline, vascular territories, and stroke mimics. These are followed by discussions of cerebrovenous thrombosis, vasculopathies, aneurysms, and vascular malformations. Remaining chapters are devoted to the traumatic neurovascular injury, as well as the relatively rare albeit important topics of head and neck vascular emergencies and spinal vascular diseases. The book has an image-rich format, including more than 300 selected CT, MRI, or digital subtraction angiography (DSA) images. Atlas of Emergency Neurovascular Imaging is an essential resource for physicians and related professionals, residents, and fellows in emergency medicine, neuroradiology, emergency imaging, neurology, and vascular neurosurgery and can successfully serve as a primary learning tool or a quick reference guide.
Contents
1. Acute Stroke Imaging -- 2. Ischemic Stroke Vascular Territory -- 3. Imaging of Stroke Mimics -- 4. Cerebrovenous Thrombosis -- 5. Cerebral Vasculopathy: CNS Vasculitis, RCVS, and PRES -- 6. Miscellaneous Cerebral Vasculopathy -- 7. Traumatic Neurovascular Injury -- 8. Cerebral Aneurysm -- 9. Cerebral Vascular Malformations -- 10. Vascular Emergency of the Head and Neck -- 11.

Abstract
This book provides up-to-date guidance on the diagnosis and treatment of sudden death, including sudden cardiac and non-cardiac death. Sudden death (SD) has become a major challenge confronting not only cardiologists, but also specialists in respiratory medicine, endocrine medicine, infectious diseases, etc. Chronic diseases are also among the causes of SD. This book summarizes the occurrence of SD, especially in specific groups (such as women, young and middle-aged groups), its causes, predisposing factors, lifestyle, morbidity, point of care testing, and advanced treatment methods including extra-corporeal membrane oxygenation, cardiopulmonary resuscitation and hypothermia treatment. In order to improve the early diagnosis, prevention and treatment of SD in clinical practice, the book also provides extensive data on its pathophysiological mechanism, epidemiology and etiology, together with detailed analyses.
