A collection of 50 of Dr. Mark E. Josephson’s groundbreaking journal articles that demonstrate his important contributions as a pioneer and teacher of modern cardiac arrhythmology over the course of 42 years. Each article not only includes a discussion by a peer of the significance of the defining paper, but also includes personal impressions of Dr. Josephson as a clinical scientist, doctor, teacher, role model, and friend.
Sudden cardiac death (SCD) is the number one killer in the United States, claiming the lives of more than 300,000 Americans every year. Thus, it is important for heart failure specialists to be knowledgeable about strategies to prevent, manage risk for, and treat conditions leading to sudden cardiac death. These topics and more are covered in this issue.
Geared to cardiology fellows in electrophysiology rotations, Electrophysiology: The Basics provides very specific information based on the outline that specifies what content must be covered in training programs. This pocket guide is authored by prominent electrophysiology instructors and is very practical, discussing the cases the trainee will be seeing. Advanced information is presented in an accessible format; traditional didactic text is combined with bulleted lists and limited, but seminal references. This book will appeal to all cardiology fellows, residents, physicians interested in recertification, medical students, nurses in the electrophysiology lab, and the arrhythmia/device clinic.
Now in its second edition, this practical guide offers clear-headed guidance to the successful application of catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation. This book concentrates on clinically-relevant information that providers can put to immediate use caring for patients. Takes a clear-headed practical approach to ablation of atrial fibrillation – long on actionable, clinically-relevant guidance, succinct and to-the-point on the theory behind the procedure Edited by three leading, internationally-known electrophysiologists with extensive experience in ablation for atrial fibrillation Written by international team of experts reflecting global best practices from centers with considerable experience in the use of catheter ablation Format designed to serve the needs of electrophysiologists regardless of experience, electrophysiology fellows, electrophysiology nurses and lab technical staff Covers hot topics such as new noninvasive imaging techniques, the treatment of challenging left atrial flutters, options for persistent atrial fibrillation and when a redo ablation is needed; and novel application of ablation targeting the autonomic nervous system
Leading practitioners from the University of Pennsylvania review all aspects of heart failure diagnosis and management, with a particular emphasis on office-based/ambulatory care. Following the problem-solving steps used in an office-based practice, the authors provide extensive coverage of the presenting signs and symptoms of heart failure, as well as the tools with which to evaluate left-ventricular function, hemodynamics, and exercise performance. They also discuss the complex, evidenc-based therapeutic options for treating patients with dyspnea, fatigue, or edema, following the new ACC/AHA heart failure guidelines that are specifically and directed at targeted symptoms.
From one of America's iconic writers, a portrait of a marriage and a life – in good times and bad – that will speak to anyone who has ever loved a husband or wife or child. A stunning book of electric honesty and passion.
The breadth and range of the topics covered, and the consistent organization of each chapter, provide simple but detailed access to information on anatomy, diagnostic criteria, differential diagnosis, mapping, and ablation. The book includes a unique section on troubleshooting difficult cases for each arrhythmia, using tables, illustrations, and high-quality figures. Includes comprehensive and detailed coverage of all arrhytmias and ablation technologies, and presents specific hard to remember numerical information used in diagnosis and mapping.
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
Building on the strong foundation provided by the 6th edition of Braunwald's Heart Disease, this thoroughly revised and updated reference is now more user-friendly and clinically useful than ever. Extensively cross-referenced with tables and figures, it facilitates the decision-making process clinicians face when choosing among various cardiovascular therapeutic options. This new edition of Cardiovascular Therapeutics covers the latest concepts in pathophysiology, evaluation, and management of patients with cardiovascular disorders-in partnership with the Braunwald text for a comprehensive yet focused clinical resource. Reflects the information explosion that has occurred in cardiovascular t...
