I’m a psych NP and I do house visits. Majority of my population are home bound due to stroke, TBI, and dementia. I’d like to improve my understanding of cognitive and behavioral symptoms associated with brain lesion locations. A focus on stroke would be good. Do you have any recommendations on learning material?
Check out the vasculature chapter in Blumenfeld's textbook (Neuroanatomy Through Clinical Cases).
I‘d say probably some of the clinical neuropsychology textbooks, like the one by John Marshall or the Goldstein & McNeil.
Thanks! I’ll look into them
Susan Uysal's Functional Neuroanatomy and Clinical Neuroscience text would be my recommendation.
Feel free to dm me, I was co-author on a stroke chapter that I am happy to send to you. It details the major syndromes from ACA, PCA, and MCA areas.
Wow thank you so much!
Go to medical school.
