Clinical neurosurgery philosophy
Keywords:
philosophy of medicine, clinical reasoning, conceptual approaches, scientific knowledge, neuroimagingAbstract
The concept of the "philosophy of neurosurgery" encompasses the genesis, meaning, and purpose of this clinical discipline and neuroscience. It involves understanding the basic principles, development patterns, and research directions in the treatment of neuropathology. The philosophy also includes the interdisciplinary connections, the unique outlook of neurosurgeons, and the comprehension of tools and methods for integrating scientific, clinical, technological, and humanitarian knowledge into neurosurgical practice.
The philosophical quest of neurosurgery's founders is reflected upon, demonstrating that the philosophy of neurosurgery is practically implemented through clinical reasoning and conceptual approaches to surgical interventions on the brain and spinal cord. Philosophical approaches are identified that can successfully counteract hyposkillia and doctor-patient disconnection syndrome.
The philosophy of neurosurgery preserves the integrity of the perception of neurosurgery amid increasing technification and differentiation, ensuring a systematic approach to patient care.
