Advances in Hemodynamics Research
Original price was: $ 224.00.Current price is: $ 180.00.
Advances in Hemodynamics Research
by Keiichi Itatani (Editor)
Hemodynamics is the study of dynamics in the circulatory system. Hemodynamics has been essential in clinical practice pertaining to cardiovascular diseases from ancient days. Although it is essential because it is based on dynamics and physics, the understanding of hemodynamics is hard for all those concerned with cardiovascular diseases. In addition, with the rapid progress of recent imaging and computer technology, hemodynamics research has undergone an evolution that provides beautiful, colorful blood flow visualization. This kind of innovation contributes novel insights into the approach to the pathophysiology of cardiovascular diseases. This textbook includes the comprehensive knowledge regarding hemodynamic research from basic physiology to recent clinical problems. This textbook has two parts: the first includes the basics of hemodynamics research and the second presents its clinical applications. This textbook covers all the current topics and all the important historical topics related to hemodynamics. In this edition, each chapter was written by professional authors regarding their respective topics. Careful attention was paid to make it appeal to a wide range of professionals including clinicians, engineers, physicians, and researchers. Each chapter is independent of the others, and this textbook was written both to be read through and to be used as a reference for any special topics. We hope this textbook will provide new perspectives to all those interested in the research regarding hemodynamics.

Tips and Tricks in Interventional Cardiology
Original price was: $ 43.00.Current price is: $ 30.00.
Tips and Tricks in Interventional Cardiology
by Shuvanan Ray (Author) This book “Tips and Tricks in Interventional Cardiology” focuses on key procedures and techniques involved in interventional cardiology. Interventional cardiology has proliferated as the first approach in managing coronary artery disease. This book comprises of 15 chapters that discuss a number of practical concepts that will advance the skills of an interventional cardiologist in the catheterization laboratory. Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) was introduced by Andreas Grüntzig in 1977, after that alternative percutaneous approaches to balloon angioplasty (atherectomy, laser, stents have been introduced. Interventional cardiologists have now expanded their skills to structural interventions (ASD, VSD, PFO, valvular heart disease) and peripheral interventions (carotids, subclavian, renal, iliac). First chapter discusses the needs and requirements of PCI. Following chapters discusses PCI—work station, access, hemodynamics in Cathlab, radiographic views, guide catheters, guidewires, balloons—the balloon catheters, drug eluting stents and non-angiographic lesion assessment. In addition, the book also covers drugs used in cathlab, difficult subsets, structural heart disease, congenital heart disease and complication of percutaneous coronary intervention.

New Developments in Myocardial Ischemia Research
by Ph.D. Madonna, Rosalinda, M.D. (Editor)
Heart failure caused by atherosclerosis-associated myocardial ischemia is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in developed countries in spite of great progress in intervention and medications. Beta-blockers, angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE), ventricular resynchronization therapy (biventricular pacing) and ventricular assist devices cannot fully prevent this disease. The research on possible alternative therapies, as well as novel strategies for non-invasive assessment of myocardial ischemia, continues actively in the 21st century and offers novel opportunities, some already in use through clinical practice. This book offers topics related to diagnosis and therapy of myocardial ischemia for a wide range of researchers in both academia and in the clinical field, for both undergraduate and graduate level students. Studies ranging from stem cell-based therapies to new promising biomarkers associated with coronary artery disease are discussed in depth. Non-invasive assessment of myocardial perfusion (Cardiac Magnetic Resonance), as well as diagnostic and prognostic role of cardiopulmonary stress test, are also covered. Leading experts give educated insight on myocardial ischemia in each chapter. It is envisioned that this book, with its proposition of diagnostic and therapeutic strategies for myocardial ischemia, will inspire a wide range of researchers and physicians towards new explorations and applications in the field of ischemic heart disease

Management of Atrial Fibrillation A Practical Approach
by Mohammad Shenasa (Editor), A. John Camm (Editor) Atrial Fibrillation is becoming a twenty-first century epidemic. It remains the most common form of sustained arrhythmia with significant mortality, morbidity and cost to the health care system. It is the most common cause of hospital admissions among all arrhythmias. Its prevalence increases with the aging population and is often associated with many other cardiac and noncardiac conditions, most notably congestive heart failure, hypertension, diabetes, and coronary artery disease. Although significant progress in understanding the epidemiology, natural history and mechanism has been made, the antiarrhythmic therapy in patients with Atrial Fibrillation is less satisfactory.Management of Atrial Fibrillation: A Practical Approach is the perfect pocket guide for those who care for patients afflicted by Atrial Fibrillation. From the history of the condition and the subsets of patients, to therapeutic and preventive procedures, Management of Atrial Fibrillation comprehensively covers all aspects in managing this increasingly prevalent disorder. Written by leading authorities in the field with vast experience in practical medicine, the book creates a clinically orientated, evidence based "fast fact" type resource for cardiologists, trainees and related healthcare professionals.

Interventional Cardiology in the Elderly

Interventional Cardiology in the Elderly
by Harald Rittger (Editor) This book provides an in depth review of the current practice in treating elderly patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) as well as an update of the existing literature. It is intended to reflect the current science of elderly patients with stable angina, acute coronary syndromes and those patients who are forwarded for CAGB procedures. Evidence in the elderly patient group is often limited and/or non-existent therefore the main challenge, even for further research, will be to define the role of geriatric preconditions and its impact on outcome. A second topic will be to clarify how, if ever, existing cardiological outcome values like mortality can be applied to elderly patients or if other values like improvement of functional status or quality of life are more suitable parameters to measure interventional success in elderly patients. The role of pharmacotherapy in advanced age has to be discussed. These topics will be embedded in epidemiological, pathophysiological and ethical aspects of interventional treatment of CAD in older age.

Controversies in Cardiology
by John A. Ambrose (Editor), Alfredo E. Rodríguez (Editor)
This book will consider several clinical and interventional topics for which there is uncertainty, continued debate and/or no consensus based on current guidelines. While there are numerous guidelines in cardiology, new and on-going trials that address new drugs treatments and procedures raise many unanswered questions. Furthermore, most practicing cardiologist taking care of the patients are likely unable to digest all of these studies or guidelines and necessarily correctly apply them to their patients. If one considers in the guidelines the frequent use of Level C (consensus), there are many areas or situations where no trial exists. Also, when applying the results of a trial to an individual patient, there can be uncertainty of how this patient should be managed based on the present body of evidence.
