Current Trends and Approaches in the Comprehensive Evaluation of Coronary Artery Disease
Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) is a global health concern with high prevalence, morbidity and mortality rate. This Editorial initiative is focused on the current diagnostic approaches in the comprehensive assessment of CAD including anatomic and functional evaluation of the whole coronary circulation. Authors are encouraged to focus on the latest advancements in research across the field of invasive and non-invasive methods for evaluation of epicardial CAD and coronary microvascular disease. To address the growing population of CAD patients, new diagnostic methods and approaches are being investigated in order to achieve better clinical outcomes and symptom alleviation in this population. The goal of this Research topic is to offer a broad overview of the current diagnostic methods, to shed light on the unmet clinical needs and provide directions for new research topics.
Practical Handbook of Advanced Interventional Cardiology
Written and edited by today's most-recognized inteventional cardiology thought leaders, this popular guide focuses on key procedures and techniques. Each strategic or tactical move is graded by complexity level and described in a simple, step-by-step approach that includes guidance on how to overcome practical difficulties and navigate particularly challenging clinical scenarios and complications. It offers interventional cardiologists, fellows in interventional cardiology, cath lab nurses and technicians; vascular surgeons and fellows, interventional radiologists: "Tips and tricks" gathered from the personal experience of over fifty international experts Clear, practical, step-by-step guidance on the latest procedures and techniques, performing challenging interventions, and managing complications and other difficult situations where evidence may be limited or inconsistent New coverage of hot topics such as percutaneous aortic valve replacement, renal artery ablation, intracranial interventions, and more
Congenital Anomalies of Coronary Arteries
The coronaries are the first branches of the ascending aorta. They arise from their respective sinuses of Valsalva, and gradually branch distally to the myocardium. Abnormalities of the coronary arteries, either congenital or acquired, can be characterized as a lack of origin, abnormal origin, anomalous course, lack of patency, abnormal connections, and/or abnormal drainage of the coronary vessels. Interruptions to or lack of flow can cause significant morbidity and mortality due to ischemia, infarction and fistulous connections, which can lead to cardiac failure, endocarditis and ischemia. Coronary artery anomalies are rare in general populations. Although they can be benign and asymptomati...
Critical Limb Ischemia
This book provides a comprehensive overview of acute and chronic critical limb ischemia (CLI). Loss of an extremity, or a portion thereof, is not necessarily a life-ending process, but it is a debilitating experience whether involvement is of the upper or lower extremity. It reviews the epidemiology, pathophysiology, etiology, physical examination, imaging modalities, diagnosis, and treatment of limb ischemia. It investigates the most frequent as well as the more unusual etiological processes that may lead to the most dreaded concern of patients and families: amputation. The therapeutics of CLI has been significantly advanced through the multidisciplinary approach to the patient and disease, a focus that is explored in detail throughout the book. Surgical and endovascular treatment guidelines as well as medical therapy, wound healing, and long-term care are discussed. Featuring an extensive illustration program, Critical Limb Ischemia: Acute and Chronic, is a valuable resource for vascular and endovascular surgeons, vascular medicine specialists, interventional radiologists, and cardiologists.
Cath-Lab Practicals
Cath-Lab Practicals is a concise guide to a range of procedures performed in the catheterisation laboratory. The book is divided into thirteen chapters. Each technique covered includes step by step instructions on the procedure, indications and contraindications, management, and any likely complications. Topics covered include cath-lab operations, angiography, haemodynamics, vascular access and closure, antiplatelets and anticoagulants. Cath-lab equipment and laboratory safety are also reviewed in detail. Enhanced by 50 illustrations and information tables, Cath-Lab Practicals is a useful guide for cardiologists and cardiac radiographers, in training and in practice. Key Points Concise guide to a range of cath-lab procedures Step by step instructions for various techniques Reviews required equipment and lab safety 50 illustrations and information tables
Management of Complex Cardiovascular Problems
Patients with complex cardiovascular problems pose a special management challenge for both the specialist and the non-specialist. This book helps you approach difficult cases with the confidence to strategically map care, understand the risk profile of your patient, and make effective treatment decisions. Dependable and succinct content provides high yield information for the busy cardiologist Take home call outs, and critical thinking boxes provide candid advice on incorporating guidelines and evidence based medicine into your practice New convenient pocket-sized format New chapter addressing cardiovascular problems in women Discussion of high risk factors for and strategic care mapping encourage clinical focus Clinical pearls offer expert advice on topical issues Includes emerging trends and clinical trials keeping you up to date
Evidence-Based Cardiology
Medical decisions are made on the basis of critical thinking and clinical judgments are based on the relevancy of the collected data. Medical decisions and clinical judgments are the results of the long thought process generated from formal learning, data from guidelines and practice standards, experience, an understanding of the incidence of disease in the population that the patient represents, and the likelihood of a disease being present in a specific patient. This book introduces and encourages the concept of evidence-based patient care. This work presents the ideology and methodology of critical thinking and also the available evidence, management and cost effectives across the field. Evidence-Based Cardiology is aimed at any clinician who encounters a cardiac patient from the Clerk to the Internist to the Practicing Physician, encouraging disease management decisions to be based on the highest level of evidence.
Atrial Septal Defect
Atrial Septal Defects (ASDs) are relatively common both in children and adults. Recent reports of increase in the prevalence of ASD may be related use of color Doppler echocardiography. The etiology of the ASD is largely unknown. While the majority of the book addresses closure of ASDs, one chapter in particular focuses on creating atrial defects in the fetus with hypoplastic left heart syndrome. This book, I hope, will give the needed knowledge to the physician caring for infants, children, adults and elderly with ASD which may help them provide best possible care for their patients.
Noninvasive Vascular Diagnosis
Noninvasive Vascular Diagnosis comprehensively covers all aspects of noninvasive evaluation of the circulatory system in the extremities. The increasing popularity of noninvasive techniques is not reflected in the number of comprehensive works on the topic and it is clear from the success of the first edition that the demand for an updated volume is increasing. This large format book is the definitive text written by the expert editors and contributors. It is well supported by exceptional illustrative material, producing the definitive work in the field. The book is invaluable to all those who work in vascular laboratories as well as internists, cardiologists, vascular laboratory directors and staff, general surgeons involved in vascular surgery and the vascular surgery community in general.
