Fatigue in Parkinson Disease, Stroke, and Traumatic Brain Injury - 05/08/11
Résumé |
Fatigue is a disabling symptom common to many neurologic conditions, including Parkinson disease, post-stroke syndromes, and traumatic brain injury.

There are relatively few proven treatments for fatigue in these populations, but the mainstays of therapy can be divided into pharmacologic and nonpharmacologic approaches.
