Description
Manual of Cardiology is a comprehensive guide to cardiology for trainee cardiologists and practising clinicians.
Covering the complete field, the book begins with cardiovascular pharmacology, diagnostic techniques and electrophysiology. The following sections examine the management of numerous cardiac disorders including coronary heart diseases, valvular heart diseases, vascular diseases, heart failure, myocardial and pericardial diseases, pulmonary vascular disease and adult congenital heart disease, and secondary heart disorders.
The final sections discuss associated issues in clinical cardiology, preventative strategies for cardiovascular diseases, and evolving concepts. Modified guidelines for the management of common disorders such as angina, arrhythmias, and heart failure, have been included.
Edited by internationally recognised expert Prof Kanu Chatterjee from the University of Iowa and the University of California, this invaluable manual includes more than 520 clinical photographs, diagrams and tables.
