Drugs in Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation
Original price was: $ 75.00.Current price is: $ 50.00.
Drugs in Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation
by Theodoros Xanthos (Author, Editor)
Although approximately one million cardiac arrests occur every year in the USA and Europe, cardiac arrest remains a clinical condition still characterised by poor prognosis. One possible explanation may be the fact that although 70 per cent of cardiac arrests take place in out-of-hospital settings, the majority of the victims do not receive basic life support (BLS) prior to the arrival of emergency medical services (EMS). Survival of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest victims strongly depends on prompt cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). Survival rates will only improve, if delay time until initiation of CPR is kept to an absolute minimum. Good quality CPR, with an emphasis on chest compressions is a key component for the victims' survival. Drugs play a secondary role in the treatment of these patients. This book presents the latest research in drug therapy in CPR

by Jean-Marc Foult (Editor), Bernard Attal (Editor), Alain Ducardonnet (Editor), Olivier Hoffman (Editor, Translator), Laurent Uzan (Editor), Jean-Claude Verdier (Editor), Pierre Weinmann (Editor)
A century of technical progress, critical analyses, and clinical comparisons have shaped exercise testing in cardiology as we know it today: a simple, noninvasive physiological test that yields irreplaceable information on an individual’s physical capacity and ischemic risk. Increasingly prescribed, exercise testing is one of the mostly commonly used medical examinations worldwide. It is both diagnostically and prognostically valuable, and is optimized when combined with myocardial perfusion imaging.. Its indications are broadened every day and there is a good chance that each and every one of us has had, or will one day have, an exercise test. This short and precise book follows a pragmatic and hands-on approach to help physicians who prescribe exercise testing to identify its indications, advantages, and limits. And in interpreting the findings they will find invaluable help in the section entitled: What should be done with exercise test results? As for those who perform exercise tests―whether beginners or experts―they will find in these pages precious details and facts that can be profitably employed in their everyday practice.

CT of the Heart (Contemporary Medical Imaging) 2nd Edition
Original price was: $ 98.00.Current price is: $ 70.00.
CT of the Heart (Contemporary Medical Imaging) 2nd Edition
by U. Joseph Schoepf (Editor)
This book is a comprehensive and richly-illustrated guide to cardiac CT, its current state, applications, and future directions. While the first edition of this text focused on what was then a novel instrument looking for application, this edition comes at a time where a wealth of guideline-driven, robust, and beneficial clinical applications have evolved that are enabled by an enormous and ever growing field of technology. Accordingly, the focus of the text has shifted from a technology-centric to a more patient-centric appraisal. While the specifications and capabilities of the CT system itself remain front and center as the basis for diagnostic success, much of the benefit derived from cardiac CT today comes from avant-garde technologies enabling enhanced visualization, quantitative imaging, and functional assessment, along with exciting deep learning, and artificial intelligence applications. Cardiac CT is no longer a mere tool for non-invasive coronary artery stenosis detection in the chest pain diagnostic algorithms; cardiac CT has proven its value for uses as diverse as personalized cardiovascular risk stratification, prediction, and management, diagnosing lesion-specific ischemia, guiding minimally invasive structural heart disease therapy, and planning cardiovascular surgery, among many others. This second edition is an authoritative guide and reference for both novices and experts in the medical imaging sciences who have an interest in cardiac CT.

Environmental Cardiology Pollution and Heart Disease
Original price was: $ 171.00.Current price is: $ 120.00.
Environmental Cardiology Pollution and Heart Disease
by Aruni Bhatnagar (Editor)
Although it is widely recognized that environmental factors such as smoking, diet, exercise, and socioeconomic status affect the risk of cardiovascular disease, recent work showing the effects of other environmental factors provides a more complete assessment of the situation. This view has emerged from three developments. Firstly, there has been a sudden explosion in the prevalence of diabetes and obesity which indicates a strong environmental component. Secondly, there is an accumulation of evidence suggesting that most cases of these diseases could be prevented by healthy lifestyle choices. Finally, studies have shown that exposure to environmental pollutants has a significant effect on heart disease risk. This book is the first to provide a comprehensive account of the effects of pollutants on heart disease and to integrate this area of research within the overall theme of environmental cardiology. The introductory chapter outlines the effects of different aspects of the environment on heart disease and provides a context for the discussion that follows. Subsequent chapters give an overview of the effects of particulate matter and discuss the epidemiological studies supporting the link. The book then goes on to cover the effects of pollution on different aspects of cardiovascular disease (hypertension, stroke, heart failure, ischemic heart disease and atherogenesis). Because of a close association between diabetes and heart disease, a discussion of the effects of particulate matter on diabetes is also included. Later chapters discuss the effects of individual pollutants such as vehicular emissions, metals and aldehydes. A review on manufactured nanoparticles is incorporated because these particles represent an important new threat to cardiovascular health. The understanding that emerges from this monograph suggests that we must be more alert to the effects of the environment and develop strategies that target, not only the diseased individual, but also the unhealthy, disease-causing environment. It is essential reading for cardiologists, epidemiologists, urban planners and pollution control specialists.

Primary Angioplasty in Acute Myocardial Infarction
Original price was: $ 220.00.Current price is: $ 180.00.
Primary Angioplasty in Acute Myocardial Infarction
by James E. Tcheng (Editor) The past 50 years have witnessed a breathtaking evolution in the approaches to the patient with an acute ST elevation myocardial infarction. In the 1960s, the now commonplace cardiac intensive care unit was but a nascent idea. Without much to offer the patient but weeks of absolute bed rest, substantial morbidity and high rates of mortality were the norm. Just 30 years ago, seminal discoveries by DeWood and colleagues suggested that the culprit was plaque rupture with thrombosis, not progressive luminal compromise. Subsequent fibrinolysis- based strategies resulted in a halving of the mortality of acute myocardial infarction. With the introduction of balloon angioplasty in the late 1970s, a few interventional cardiologists braved the question: why not perform emergency angioplasty as a primary reperfusion strategy? Indeed, reports of successful reperfusion via balloon angioplasty appeared (mostly in local newspapers) as early as 1980. Despite being thought of as heretical by mainstream cardiology, these pioneers nonetheless persevered, proving the benefit of ‘‘state-of-the-art’’ balloon angioplasty compared with ‘‘state-of-t- art’’ thrombolytic therapy in a series of landmark trials published in the New England Journal of Medicine in March of 1993. Publication of the first edition of Primary Angioplasty in Acute Myocardial Infarction in 2002 to some extent anticipated the widespread acceptance of primary percutaneous coronary intervention as the standard of care. Since then, in all respects, the evolution of emergency percutaneous revascularization has only accelerated. The universal replacement of balloon angioplasty with stent implantation was clearly one key.
