Preface

Covering both Medicine and Surgery, this is an essential revision companion for medical students and will prove to be a valuable resource for junior doctors at all stages of their training.
Examinations for undergraduate medical students and at postgraduate level can take a number of forms, including Multiple Choice and Extended Matching Questions, Single Best Answers, Short Notes, Vivas and OSCEs. This book provides the necessary information to tackle all of these exam formats successfully, and gives guidance on how to manage each topic competently in clinical practice.
The medical and surgical curricula are divided into over twenty key sections, each of which concisely cover the relevant information including defi nitions, aetiology, key clinical features, investigations, and management.
Comprehensive, compact and user-friendly, this book is ideal for the early stages of revision, for last minute cramming, and for use on the wards.

1.1. Neurological examination
The key to neurological diagnosis is pattern recognition, and there are a limited number of patterns that you need to know. Neurological exami na tion and diagnosis is sometimes seen as difficult because emphasis is placed on lots of different individual diseases rather than patterns of disease.
Patients with weakness will fall into one (rarely two) of four syndromes repre­sent ing the stages in the motor pathway from the cortex to the muscle: upper motor neurone (UMN), lower motor neurone (LMN), neuromuscular junction (NMJ), and muscle. You should be aware of the classical features for each of these syndromes.
