Handbook of Cardiac Electrophysiology
The second edition of this bestseller provides a practical, user-friendly manual guiding the theory and practice of cardiac electrophysiology. The handbook provides the specialist in training with a thorough grounding procedures, and clinical findings for clinicians. It provides a review of the main kinds of arrhythmia with illustrations of typical ECG findings supported where appropriate by correlative imaging. It also details the principal diagnostic and therapeutic procedures include implantation of pacemakers, resynchronization therapy, and ablation techniques. Key Features Provides concise, user friendly guide to the equipment, procedures and clinical findings with which EPs need to be familiar Delivers alternatives resource to the flagship titles available in this field - idea for those beginning training or seeking an update Presents extensively updated material to enhance comprehension Includes new treatments and devices for electrophysiologists trained to perform interventional cardiac electrophysiology studies (EPS) as well as surgical device implantations
Implantable Defibrillator Therapy: A Clinical Guide
Implantable defibrillators as originally conceived by Michel Mirowski were limited to the detection and automatic termination of ventricular fibrillation. In the original "AID" device, the detection algoritlun sought to distinguish sinus rhytlun from ventricular fibrillation by identifying the "more sinusoidal waveform of ventricular fibrillation. " The therapeutic intervention was elicited only once deadly polymorphic rhythms had developed. It was rapidly learned, however, that ventricular fibrillation is usually preceded by ventricular tachycardia. Mirowski recognized the pivotal importance of developing algoritllms based on heart rate. Ventricular tachycardia detection allowed the success...
ICD Programming
Treatment with an ICD (implantable cardioverter defibrillator) is today a well-established therapy for patients who survived ventricular fibrillation, or with known ventricular arrhythmias. It is also indicated for patients with a high risk of developing such arrhythmias. The use of these devices is constantly increasing, resulting in more and more patients with an implanted ICD who need hospital care in the form of implantation, follow-ups, and programming to individually adjust parameters for the type of arrhythmia, ventricular function, patient’s level of activity, etc. This programming can be complicated, and incorrect programming of the device may have serious consequences. Thorough u...
Stem Cell Research
Embryonic stem cells have the ability to develop into virtually any cell in the body, and may have the potential to treat medical conditions such as diabetes and Parkinson's disease. In August 2001, President Bush announced that for the first time federal funds would be used to support research on human embryonic stem cells, but funding would be limited to 'existing stem cell lines'. The National Institutes of Health (NIH) has established the Human Embryonic Stem Cell Registry which lists stem cell lines that are eligible for use in federally funded research. Although 78 cell lines are listed, 21 embryonic stem cell lines are currently available. Scientists are concerned about the quality, l...

Color Atlas and Synopsis of Electrophysiology
A text and atlas that will appeal to all cardiologists regardless of specialty Over the past decade, with the advent of modalities such as MR, CT, and nuclear medicine, cardiology has become one of the most visual of all specialties, and this is the first text to address that reality. Color Atlas and Synopsis of Electrophysiology is a unique combination atlas and text that offers step-by-step management guidance for patients undergoing electrophysiology studies, plus hundreds of state-of-the-art clinical, diagnostic, and interventional images that cover the entire spectrum of electrophysiology. Color Atlas and Synopsis of Electrophysiology is especially designed for busy clinicians who need concise patient management guidelines and a comprehensive collection of images in a consistent find-it-now presentation. Each topic begins with a case scenario that gives issues a clinical, real-world perspective and includes evidence ratings from the combined ACC/AHA guidelines. Both authors, Dr. Daoud and Dr. Kalbfleisch, were included on America’s Best Doctor list in 2009 Companion DVD contains all the images found in the book Includes more than 500 images
Cardiac Electrophysiology
In response to the many major recent developments in the field, the authors have completely updated this modern classic, making this edition the most significant revision yet. Practitioners will find all the state-of-the-art guidance they need to make informed, effective clinical decisions.
