Coronary stenting is the most commonly used method of myocardial revascularization, with approximately 2 million stents implanted in 2004 throughout the world. The development of drug eluting stents has resulted in very low rates of repeat intervention and will further increase the scope for percutaneous coronary intervention.The evidence from larg
To help you optimize your exam performance, members of the Society for Cardiovascular Angiography and Interventions (SCAI), have created a fully revised and updated Second Edition of the SCAI Interventional Cardiology Board Review—a comprehensive yet concise review for board certification and recertification exams in interventional cardiology.
In the last ten years, major strides have been made in defining the presence and role of inflammation in atherosclerosis as well as in injury to the tissues that occurs after episodes of ischemia and reperfusion. In sixteen chapters, written by world-renowned individuals from different countries, the role of inflammation and different mediators in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis is presented. The significance of inflammation and possible therapeutic implications is also described in depth. This book is of great interest for a wide range of physicians, researchers, and scientists who may want to study more and develop the concept of inflammation and atherosclerosis.
The ESC Textbook of Thrombosis is the third iteration of Therapeutic Advances in Thrombosis. Now a new addition to the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) publications portfolio, it is informed by the work of the ESC's Working Group on Thrombosis. Written by internationally renowned experts in the field of thrombosis, the textbook presents an up-to-date and in-depth review of all aspects of thrombosis and antithrombotic therapies. Not only does it reflect contemporary European guidelines from the ESC but also it also summarizes the latest evidence from clinical trials. Covering the topic in great detail with thirty-one chapters, the textbook is split into four sections: Pathophysiology of thrombosis, Clinical pharmacology of antithrombotic drugs, Therapeutic strategies, and Special situations. Appealing to the large community of cardiovascular healthcare specialists in Europe and across the world, the textbook is a must read for cardiologists dealing with acute and chronic coronary syndromes, atrial fibrillation, artificial heart valves and pulmonary embolism. It will also appeal to cardiac surgeons, cardiovascular researchers, and general physicians alike.
