The expanded guide to cardiac mapping The effective diagnosis and treatment of heart disease may vitally depend upon accurate and detailed cardiac mapping. However, in an era of rapid technological advancement, medical professionals can encounter difficulties maintaining an up-to-date knowledge of current methods. This fifth edition of the much-admired Cardiac Mapping is, therefore, essential, offering a level of cutting-edge insight that is unmatched in its scope and depth. Featuring contributions from a global team of electrophysiologists, the book builds upon previous editions comprehensive explanations of the mapping, imaging, and ablation of the heart. Nearly 100 chapters provide fascin...
The EHRA Book of Interventional Electrophysiology is the second official textbook of European Heart Rhythm Association (EHRA). Taking a case based approach, the textbook it assists device specialists in tackling both common and unusual situations that they may encounter during daily practice.
Interventional Cardiac Electrophysiology is the first and only comprehensive, state-of-the-art textbook written for practitioners in multiple specialties involved in the care of the arrhythmia patient. Encompassing the entire field of interventional therapy for cardiac rhythm management, from basic science to evidence-based medicine to future directions, topics include: Technology and Therapeutic Techniques – EP techniques; imaging and radiologic technology; device and ablation technology; drug therapy.Interventional Electrophysiologic Procedures – Diagnostic and physiologic EP techniques; mapping in percutaneous catheter and surgical EP procedures; catheter and surgical ablation; device...
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
Chapters are designed to be concise and practical, with the "how-to- do-it" approach necessary in a young field in which new devices appear regularly. Eighty-nine contributions are arranged in sections on percutaneous diagnostic assessment; interventions; valvular infections; vascular interventions; and peripheral arteries and veins. Contributors are the leading authorities in the field from around the world, providing an international perspective. Annotation copyright by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
Clinically valuable approaches for the effective diagnosis and ablation of cardiac arrhythmias. Five years after the publication of the second edition, this updated and expanded Hands-On Ablation, The Experts' Approach, Third Edition is a comprehensive book that gives an inside look at leading electrophysiology labs throughout the world and provides the reader with useful information and tips for ablation procedures directly from the experts themselves. Fourteen new chapters cover subjects such as wire mapping of ventricular premature beats, alcohol ablation, and pulsed field ablation. Each chapter highlights the practical knowledge of the expert author with a specific procedure for ablation of arrhythmias. “Hands-on” detail helps translate new ideas and innovations into practice for the most state-of-the-art patient care. A valuable reference for every electrophysiology lab to help differentiate diagnostic challenges. Fully illustrated with over 160 videos and more than 580 figures.
"Cardiovascular risk is determined by many factors involving genetics, environmental factors and lifestyle. Thus, the determination of the global cardiovascular risk has to consider several factors. The most important ones are age, blood pressure, cholesterol and its subfractions - in particular, LDL cholesterol and non-HDL cholesterol - and diabetes. The ScoreCard of the European Society of Cardiology considers these factors to determine the 10-year cardiovascular risk to have a major cardiovascular event, such as myocardial infarction, stroke and death. Other important risk factors, such as noise, pollution, family history and nutrition are more complex to be included in the global cardiovascular risk but should be clinically considered"--
