Mechanical Circulatory Support in End-Stage Heart Failure
This book is a detailed practical guide to the use of ventricular assist devices and total artificial hearts to provide mechanical circulatory support (MCS) in patients with end-stage heart failure. It explains why MCS may be indicated, which patients require MCS, when and how to implant ventricular assist devices or a total artificial heart, and how to avoid potential complications of MCS. Management throughout the period of care is described, from preimplantation to follow-up, and both typical and atypical cases are discussed. The text features numerous helpful tips and tricks relating to surgical and nonsurgical management and is supported by a wealth of high-quality illustrations that document the preoperative evaluation and implantation techniques. Heart transplantation remains the gold standard for the treatment of patients suffering from end-stage heart failure, but the shortage of donors has led to an increase in the use of MCS. This book will assist all physicians, and especially cardiologists and anesthesiologists, who are involved in the care of these patients.
The Pathology of Cardiac Transplantation
This is the first book to focus entirely on the role of pathology in cardiac transplantation, linked to the clinical perspective through clinical–pathological correlation, multidisciplinary team working, and collaborative research. It provides a scientific framework with up-to-date pathological protocols and classification schemes and guides the reader through the chronological phases of the transplant process in a step-by-step approach. Topics include end-stage heart failure with pathologies encountered in the native heart, current issues surrounding donor selection, the multiple faces of rejection pathology correlated with clinical management and immunology, other post-transplant complic...
Design Innovation for Health and Medicine
Design Innovation for Health and Medicine offers an innovative approach for solving complex healthcare issues. In this book, three design experts examine a range of case studies to explain how design is used in health and medicine—exploring issues such as diverse patient needs, an ageing population and the impact of globalisation on disease. These case studies, along with high-profile industry projects conducted by the authors over the past decade, inform a novel framework for designing and implementing innovative solutions in this context. The book aims to assist designers, medical engineers, clinicians and researchers to shape the next era of healthcare.
ISHLT 2017 Final Program
Downloadable to any device, this book has it all, and we mean ALL, in a book format. This is the definitive record of ISHLT 2017 and contains everything that has traditionally been included in the printed Final program: all presentation information (including abstract titles and authors), Academy scientific program schedules, meeting times and locations, continuing education credit information, meeting highlights, floor plans, list of exhibitors, corporate event and industry theater listings, plus committee and council leadership rosters, award recipient lists, and more! No photos, no color—just all the information you ever wanted.
ISHLT 2016 Final Program
The 2016 Annual Meeting will be held at the Marriott Wardman Park located in a charming neighborhood in the heart of Washington, DC. We hope to build on the tremendous success of the 2015 Nice meeting, the best attended meeting in the Society’s history. We plan a traditional meeting schedule, opening on Wednesday and closing on Saturday. The format of the Washington meeting will be similar to previous meetings, beginning with a day of pre-meeting symposia on Wednesday morning and closing mid-day Saturday. The majority of the meeting will be devoted to submitted content. In anticipation of contributions of high quality, novel scientific work, we plan to run concurrent oral sessions to showcase the highest scoring abstracts and mini-oral sessions and general poster sessions are planned to share other excellent submitted work with our members.

Mechanische Herz-Kreislauf-Unterstützung
Der aktuelle Stand der mechanischen Herz-Kreislauf-Unterstützung ist in übersichtlicher Form in diesem Buch zusammengefasst. Die einzelnen verwendeten Systeme werden ebenso von Experten in Wort und Bild dargestellt wie die Indikationsstellung, die Nachsorge und mögliche Komplikationen. Neu in der 2., durchgehend aktualisierten Auflage sind Kapitel zur psychologischen Versorgung von VAD-Patienten, zur ECLS/ECMO bei Kindern und zu aktuellen Weiterentwicklungen im VAD-, aber auch TAH-Sektor; das Kapitel zum Komplikationsmanagement wurde erweitert.
