Synopsis

Co-authored by a neurologist, a psychiatrist, and a pulmonologist, Sleep Medicine in Clinical Practice reflects the cross-disciplinary nature in the clinical management of sleep disorders. The authors present an overview of sleep medicine from the perspective of the practicing clinician. They approach the subject through categories of sleep symptoms rather than lists of sleep disorders, reflecting the experience of both the family doctor and the specialist referring physician. Along with the overview of sleep medicine, this book reviews appropriate investigative procedures and provides guidelines on possible therapeutic strategies.
