Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. From master teacher George J. Klein, MD, this stepwise book is for those with a working knowledge of electrophysiology who have looked at a complicated ECG or intracardiac tracing and drawn a blank, not recognizing a pattern from their personal experience, and without a good idea of how to proceed or venturing a guess with variable confidence. Dr. Klein presents strategies that he has found useful, not just by providing an "answer," but also exploring how he solved the problem with a systematic approach using "tools" of analysis that applies to both ECGs and EGM tracings. Master teacher George J. Klein, MD teaches a strategy for solving an unknown tracing and is organized around the thought process and not necessarily the arrhythmia entity. The answer is not just provided but how the problem is solved is explored. The goals of this book are to highlight the mental and physical strategies that are useful.

Hardcover. Condición: new. Hardcover. Cardiorenal syndrome - the presence of significant renal insufficiency and heart failure simultaneously - constitutes one of the most vexing and difficult challenges facing clinicians and researchers today. Given the fundamental role of the kidneys in maintaining fluid and electrolyte balance within the body, it comes as no surprise that renal abnormalities are inextricably linked with congestive heart failure. What is surprising is that recent data have indicated that renal dysfunction is a more critical determinant of mortality than heart failure itself.In The Cardiorenal Syndrome: A Clinician's Guide to Pathophysiology and Management, experts from around the world clearly outline the current issues associated with this increasingly prevalent condition, provide invaluable insight into its pathophysiology, and highlight the risks, benefits, and rationales for both practical and promising prevention and treatment strategies, including: Diuretics, Role of ACE inhibitors/ angiotensin receptor blockers in renal dysfunction, New "designer" peptides for heart failure, Inotropes and neurohormonal blockade, Dialysis and ultrafiltration, Renal cell therapy, Left ventricular assist device implantation, and Renal and/or heart transplantation. While recognition of the role of renal dysfunction in the progression of heart failure is a pivotal advance, many questions about the scope and impact of this condition remain. This book serves as a touchstone for cardiovascular specialists and internists as they encounter the diverse varieties of cardiorenal syndrome and attempt to navigate the radically different and evolving therapeutic options in their quest to provide optimal individualized care for their patients.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. Bayes' syndrome refers to the association between interatrial block and supraventricular arrhythmias-mainly the occurrence of atrial fibrillation. It is also a risk factor for cardio-embolic stroke. Rapid recognition by analyzing characteristic patterns in the surface ECG will help the physician to closely monitor the patient for atrial fibrillation and decide on anticoagulation therapy if the clinical risk of stroke is increased. Interatrial blocks were described several decades ago; however, they are now gaining the attention of the medical community as a means of helping to identify patients at high risk of developing atrial fibrillation and/or cardio-embolic stroke. I welcome all readers to navigate this book and to become familiar with this concept that is helping to renovate our models of predicting atrial fibrillation and stroke.

Hardcover. Condición: new. Hardcover. Transradial Access: Discover the Benefits, Understand the Procedure Transradial Access: Techniques for Diagnostic Angiography and Percutaneous Intervention offers a single source for both novice and experienced interventional cardiologists for safely and effectively performing transradial catheterization procedures. First described in 1989, the transradial approach for coronary angiography and percutaneous interventions has seen a constant and progressive increase around the world as a result of significantly reduced procedural complications, shorter hospital stays, increased patient satisfaction, and lower associated costs compared with the transfemoral approach. Yet despite its apparent benefits, adoption of this technique in the United States has been slow, largely due to the increased technical aspects of entering a smaller artery, accessing the central circulation and engaging the coronary arteries from this approach. In addition, until recently the technique was not routinely taught in the majority of training programs.This book flattens that learning curve by highlighting the technical aspects of transradial diagnostic and interventional procedures, and includes detailed discussion of normal vascular anatomy of the hand and arm, indications and contraindications for transradial access procedures, patient and catheter selection, tips and tricks for both beginner and advanced operators, procedural pitfalls and potential complications. Techniques are demonstrated in detail using both still images and video. Whether you are an experienced transfemoral operator who wants to refine and expand your technique or a new transradial operator looking to master the technique, this comprehensive text holds the key to mastering this revolutionary procedure. This comprehensive text on transradial access offers information for both novice and experienced interventional cardiologists for safely and effectively performing transradial catheterization procedures. Technical aspects of transradial diagnostic and interventional procedures are highlighted with numerous illustrations and videos.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. To understand cardiac implantable electronic device (CIED) management, the clinician requires a foundation of information regarding CIED purpose, design and function, as well as experience in interpreting CIED output, i.e., electrical assessment of the system, programmed parameters, electrograms, and markers. In addition, one must be able to correlate and interpret the accompanying electrocardiographic tracing with the patient's clinical presentation.For students of CIED management, be they beginners in the field or more advanced, there is always an appreciation for case studies, i.e., real-world examples of managing a specific device-related issue.To this end, this workbook of 61 device management case studies has been prepared by six talented RN Device Specialists and three physicians involved in the Heart Rhythm Service practice at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota. Included in the case studies are examples from pacemakers, ICDs and CRT devices, illustrating interpretation and management of a variety of device behaviors, some with abnormal function that requires diagnosis and management approach, and others that display appropriate behavior of a specific device algorithm that may be confusing for the CIED student.David L.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. Background:Catheter ablation has become a widely used approach to treating various cardiac arrhythmias. Traditionally, catheter ablation procedures are guided by fluoroscopic imaging to help understand catheter position during mapping. The potentially significant exposure to radiation to the patient, physician, and staff increases risks of radiation exposure-related disease. Also, the protective lead garments worn increases risks of orthopedic injury. Current advanced electroanatomic mapping and intracardiac echocardiography technology have allowed the development of endocardial catheter ablation techniques without the use of fluoroscopy safely and effectively.A host of expert and experienced authors present a practical overview of the rationale and methodology for a low- or zero-fluoro environment in the electrophysiology lab with the critical goal of significantly reducing radiation exposure to the patient, physician, and staff.This practical guide:Covers the entire spectrum of commonly (and less commonly) performed ablation procedures via endocardial approach.Discusses general principles that are applicable across ICE and EAM platforms.Will assist the electrophysiologist and their team to safely and effectively work toward the significant reduction in fluoroscopy utilization while also likely improving procedural safety, i.e., fewer complications, after the adoption of these techniques.Includes a library of 50 videos, with 9 extended films (108 minutes) by Dr. Razminia detailing step-by-step procedures and techniques. A hands-on guide for the reduction or elimination of fluoroscopy during the mapping and catheter ablation of cardiac arrhythmias using intracardiac echocardiography (ICE) and electroanatomic mapping (EAM).
