This volume is an essential addition to the libraries of heart surgeons, consultants, biomedical engineers, and all other specialists and researchers who need to stay on the cutting edge of heart replacement research and technology. All of the latest clinical and surgical trials are discussed in comprehensive detail, generously supported by full-colour photographs of equipment and implantation techniques, as well as by charts, graphs and tables, outlining trial results in user-friendly formats.
