CVD, or cardiovascular disease, is a general term that describes a disease of the heart or blood vessels. It is one of the most common causes of death. Statins are a group of medicines that can help lower the level of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol in the blood. LDL cholesterol of often referred to as ‘bad cholesterol’, and statins reduce its production in the liver. Having a high level of LDL is potentially dangerous as it can lead to hardening and narrowing of the arteries (NHS). Comprising nearly 1000 pages, this book is a comprehensive guide to the latest advances in statin therapy and its clinical application for cardiovascular disease. Divided into 29 sections, the text ...
An echocardiogram uses sound waves to produce images of the heart. This common test allows a doctor to see the heart beating and pumping blood, and subsequently identify heart disease. This book is a complete guide to performing and interpreting an echocardiogram. 56 chapters describe both basic and advanced techniques for diagnosing different heart disorders. The second edition has been fully revised to provide clinicians with the latest developments and techniques in the field. Seven new chapters have been added to this edition covering echocardiography and artificial intelligence, hypertension, arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia, Kawasaki disease, cardio-oncology, diabetes mellitus, and foetal echo. Dedicated chapters emphasise the role of echo in surgical procedures, and explore its use with electrophysiology – in patients with pacemakers and those undergoing cardiac resynchronisation therapy. The book is highly illustrated with many 2D and 3D echo images helping explain the descriptive text for each topic. The previous edition (9789352700929) published in 2017.
Atrial fibrillation is a heart condition that causes an irregular and often abnormally fast heart rate. It can cause problems including dizziness, shortness of breath and tiredness and a patient may be aware of noticeable heart palpitations, where the heart feels like it is pounding, fluttering or beating irregularly, often for a few seconds or, in some cases, a few minutes (NHS Choices). This comprehensive guide presents clinicians with the latest developments in the diagnosis and management of atrial fibrillation. Divided into seven sections, the book covers clinical spectrum, diagnosis, therapeutic strategies, interventions, and new technologies used in its treatment and prevention. Compl...
The European Society for Engineering and Medicine is representative of both the engineering and medicine communities, with membership drawn across Europe. The aim of the society is to provide a bridge between the two communities to facilitate engineering solutions to medical problems. The ESEM 2001 conference had a real-world focus and scientific papers were selected on the basis of their clinical application. Contributors at the conference were worldwide to reflect the global relevance and significance of the topics. The papers reflect the three main tracks of the conference: health information systems; bioengineering; and medical instrumentation and imaging. Within each of these areas there are a number of sub-themes on a diverse range of topics, such as: tissue engineering and artificial organs; computers in medicine; and biomedical processing and modelling. This volume is a record of the oral and poster presentations made at the conference, with an overview of the conference structure and a list of keynote speakers.
Cardiodiabetes refers to heart disease that develops in people who have diabetes. Compared with people who don't have diabetes, people who have diabetes are at higher risk of heart disease, have additional causes of heart disease, may develop heart disease at a younger age, and may have more severe heart disease. With nearly 1000 pages, this manual is a complete guide to the diagnosis and management of cardiodiabetes. Divided into nine sections, each chapter addresses a separate and distinct issue of clinical relevance. The book provides an insight into clinical spectrum, diagnostic methodology, management strategies, nutraceutical and obesity care, arrhythmia management, coronary interventi...
Hypertension is another name for high blood pressure. It can lead to severe complications and increases the risk of heart disease, stroke, and death. Blood pressure is the force exerted by the blood against the walls of the blood vessels. Comprising more than 1000 pages, this book is a complete guide to the diagnosis and management of hypertension. Divided into 19 sections, the text begins with an introduction to hypertension, its causes, risk factors, and how it presents in different sectors of the population. The next chapters discuss diagnostic methods and echocardiography. The following sections cover hypertension associated with other disorders including heart failure, stroke, renovascu...
In a publication that will prove indispensible to a host of healthcare professionals, step-by-step instructions for managing the most commonly seen emergencies in intensive care are combined with a rich assortment of algorithms, figures and tables.
Heart failure is a serious condition caused by the heart failing to pump enough blood around the body at the right pressure. It usually occurs because the heart muscle has become too weak or stiff to work properly, most commonly caused by heart attack, high blood pressure or cardiomyopathy (heart disease). This textbook is a comprehensive guide to the latest advances in the diagnosis and management of heart failure. Comprising nearly 1000 pages, the book features 15 sections, beginning with discussion on clinical issues of heart failure, followed by imaging techniques. Each of the following sections covers a different disorder or disease that subsequently may lead to heart failure. Topics in...
