The NeuroICU Board Review offers the ultimate preparation for neurocritical care board certification. It delivers a thorough overview of neurological disease states (pathology, pathophysiology, and therapy), neurosurgical management, critical care medicine (including medical, surgical, cardiac, and cardiothoracic critical care), as well as ethics and professionalism. This powerful review also includes realistic case vignettes and more than 700 questions and answers with detailed answer explanations to strengthen your understanding of critical care topics and prepare you for practice in the NeuroICU.
