The Comprehensive Physicians’ Guide to the Management of PANS/PANDAS:
Equipping Clinicians with Extensive Research and Proven Evidence-Based Protocols for Patients with PANS and PANDAS
After more than a decade of research and work with patients, Dr. Scott Antoine authored the first and only medical textbook dedicated entirely to the diagnosis, testing, and effective treatment of PANS/PANDAS.
Disturbing symptoms consistent with many DSM-5 psychiatric disorders manifest in patients with PANS and PANDAS – yet there is a documented biologic basis for the changes in these children. As a result, these disorders require physicians to view mental illness in an entirely new way.
Resistance to this change in paradigm has made PANS and PANDAS controversial for scholars to accept, difficult for clinicians to diagnose, and unbearable for parents to endure. As such, there is no recognized standard of care. Dr. Scott has written this work in an effort to change that.
PANS and PANDAS are complex disorders that demand a rich, multifaceted response with novel treatment approaches. This is a textbook by physicians for physicians, written to bring back some of the art of medicine to caring for a group of children and families who really need it.
The Comprehensive Physicians’ Guide to the Management of PANS/PANDAS includes extensive peer-reviewed medical literature, in combination with the results of over thirty years of clinical experience caring for the sickest patients, both in and out of the hospital.
In this text, you will find:
Conclusive evidence for the existence and pathophysiology of PANS and PANDAS
Proven testing and treatment interventions
Commonly used labs, doses of medications, and supplements
A sample flare protocol
Extensive support for parents
Sample IVIG orders and more
Dr. Scott’s goal is to offer a resource that allows you, the physician, to help these suffering families heal.
