In this latest edition of his popular book, Closed Head Injury: A Clinical Source Book, Dr. Peter Bernad, a noted expert and neurologist, continues his respected work on traumatic brain injury.  

Written with  the trial attorney in mind, the fifth edition continues the discussion on the latest scientific findings on brain injury to help  uncover new territories for litigation. Practitioners will learn the nature of brain injuries, how to identify them, how to prove them in court, and understand the possibilities for treatment. Some of the topics Bernad covers are:

• How to correlate head injury to the deficits claimed, and determine what specific functions were damaged and to what degree

• How to separate preexisting conditions from those proximate to the cause of action

• How to provide a basis for an accurate and adequate amount of compensation

• How to identify instances of plaintiff malingering, “litigation neurosis,” and how social factors may contribute to prolonging a patient’s symptoms

• How to understand the cognitive consequences of even mild brain injury in children 

• How to become familiar with the proper procedures of psychological and neurological evaluation and assessment in the medical setting;

• How to best use experts in building a proper case strategy 

• How to distinguish between post-concussion syndrome (PCS) and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in head injury cases, especially in cases of military traumatic brain injury, and understand the evidence specific to each, and

• How to become familiar with the new diagnostic techniques and protocols being put in place nationwide to more quickly recognize (and address) traumatic brain injuries 

With improvements in the presentation of material and in the update of critically important chapters, this volume is sure to become a frequently consulted addition to the practitioner's library.  

 

Dr. Peter G. Bernad is the president and founder of Neurology Services, Inc. (NSI) and Medical Quality Management (MQM), as well as president of the American Medical International Quality Training (AMIQT) initiative. He received his medical degree from McGill University and as part of his training he served on the House Staff of University College London's National Hospital for Neurology and Neurosurgery at Queen Square and at Soroka Medical Center at Ben-Gurion University in Beer Sheba, Israel. He also did an externship at Harbor-UCLA Medical Center and completed his internal medicine internship and residency at USC Medical Center. He went on to complete a neurology residency program at Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston, and was awarded a Jerry Lewis fellowship in muscular dystrophy by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) before receiving his master’s degree in Public Health from Johns Hopkins University. He is a Clinical Professor at George Washington University in Washington, DC.
Dr. Bernad is internationally renowned as an expert in closed-head injury as well as neurotoxicology and well recognized for his work in traumatic brain injury. His testimony concerning his research in human growth hormones was critical in determinations made by the International Court of Arbitration in Zurich, Switzerland regarding risk, management, and approval. He also served as a toxicological expert in breast implant litigations and various environmentally related toxic symptoms.
Dr. Bernad has enjoyed teaching medical students, interns, and residents with the AMIQT at various medical schools and facilities. He has been a frequent lecturer on the topic of closed-head injury and has published multiple books as well as numerous journals and articles. He serves as president of the American Board of Electroencephalography and Neurophysiology (ABEN) and runs a multi-site practice in the Washington, DC metro area as well as being a member on staff of multiple hospitals.
