Clinical Cardiology: Current Practice Guidelines is an essential tool for the busy
clinician, providing succinct yet detailed access to the most recent trial and guideline
data supporting practice and patient management in cardiology. ESC and ACC/AHA
guidelines are continually being updated and often overlap in their advice, making it
difficult for the cardiologist to obtain a clear picture of the right way to diagnose and
treat disease according to the latest evidence base. Written by leading authorities in
the field, this book, together with its twice yearly-updated online version, provides a
solution.
The authors have scrutinized all available guidelines and research, collating the results
into over 600 easily-accessible tables which provide the most recent recommendation
by both ACC/AHA and the ESC on every clinical issue. These recommendations are
considered in the context of the latest research and evolving evidence most relevant to
the clinician, to give detailed insights into how best to proceed with treatment. This is
discussed as part of 84 comprehensive chapters on pathophysiology, diagnosis and
management.
Each chapter offers concise information on definition, epidemiology, and
pathophysiology of the disease, reflecting the latest published research. Following this
is clear and instructive discussion of possible presentations and all clinical
investigations that may be necessary.
Caring for children with heart disease is extremely complex, requiring a different and
often tailor-made approach compared with adults with similar cardiac problems. Built on
the success of previous editions and brought to you by a stellar author team, Pediatric
Cardiology: The Essential Pocket Guide provides a unique, concise and extremely
practical overview of heart disease in children. From history-taking, physical examination,
ECG, and chest X-ray -- the basics that enable clinicians to uncover possible problems
and eliminate areas of false concern -- it goes on to examine the range of more complex
topics in the diagnosis and treatment/management of childhood cardiovascular disease.
New to this edition you'll find: An enhanced section on imaging including recent advances
in cardiac MRI and fetal echocardiography. New techniques in genetic testing for heart
disease in special populations. Much more emphasis on the importance of
echocardiography in understanding the pathophysiology of congenital cardiac
malformations.
Expanded section on cardiac conditions in the neonate, specifically on prenatal diagnosis
and management, neonatal screening for congenital heart disease, and hypoplastic left
heart syndrome. Expanded and updated congestive cardiac failure section, including the
latest in genetic and metabolic causes of heart failure, and medical/surgical treatment
options; discussion of bridging therapies; essentials of transplantation, including common
drug treatment regimens, clinical recognition of treatment complications and rejection,
outcomes, morbidity and survival.

The book will provide a detailed evidence-based approach to key issues in the
pathophysiology, diagnosis, and management of patients with concurrent medical
issues. It will provide a clinical focus with practical advice on the prevention, diagnosis,
and treatment of heart disease supported by an expert's summary, without duplicating
other texts. Each chapter will be structured similarly in the following sections: (1)
Introduction, (2) Pathophysiology, (3) Diagnosis (4) Management (5) Key Points, (6)
Summary of the key guidelines from professional societies where available.
Manual of Cardiology is a comprehensive guide to cardiology for trainee cardiologists and
practising clinicians. Covering the complete field, the book begins with cardiovascular
pharmacology, diagnostic techniques and electrophysiology. The following sections
examine the management of numerous cardiac disorders including coronary heart
diseases, valvular heart diseases, vascular diseases, heart failure, myocardial and
pericardial diseases, pulmonary vascular disease and adult congenital heart disease, and
secondary heart disorders.
The recommendations will have a firm background in the AHA/ACC or ESC
recommendations for the management of patients. The intention is to create a
comprehensive book rather than a pocketbook or manual. We hope this book will
serve as an up to date reference for the practicing clinician.
The final sections discuss associated issues in clinical cardiology, preventative strategies
for cardiovascular diseases, and evolving concepts. Modified guidelines for the
management of common disorders such as angina, arrhythmias, and heart failure, have
been included. Edited by internationally recognised expert Prof Kanu Chatterjee from the
University of Iowa and the University of California, this invaluable manual includes more
than 520 clinical photographs, diagrams and tables.
Each of the approximately 40 chapters will have at most 5000 words and 5 -7 high
quality figures or illustrations each. Only the highest quality authors will be recruited
from the United States and Europe. The emphasis will be on depth of information yet
ease of access.
This necessitates an approach whereby not a single word, sentence or page of the
book will be wasted. Brief where it needs to be brief, detailed where detail is required,
this will be a true all-encompassing clinician reference.

Adverse cutaneous drug reactions (ACDR) are among the most frequent events in
patients receiving drug therapy. Cardiovascular (CV) drugs are an important group of
drugs with potential risk of developing ACDR especially in elderly as marketing of more
new drugs and their prescription continue to increase. However, like with most other
drugs the exact incidence of cutaneous side effects from CV drugs is difficult to
estimate due to sporadic reporting.
Moreover, a reliable designation of a certain drug as the cause of a certain type of
reaction can rarely be made. Apart from the well-known angioedema/urticaria from
ACE inhibitors, lichen planus / lichenoid reaction from beta adrenergic blockers and
photosensitivity from thiazid diuretics, ACDR from CV drugs might be seen in a wide
spectrum extending to rare but life-threatening conditions such as erythroderma,
Stevens-Johnson syndrome, toxic epidermal necrolysis or drug hypersensitivity
syndrome. In this comprehensive review, the reported types of ACDR to CV drugs will
be discussed according to drug class and the type of dermatologic reaction with
special emphasize on cross-reactions and the role of patch testing in diagnosis.
In cardiovascular prevention, there is classically a small number of cardiovascular risk
factors to treat, such as hypertension, diabetes, hyperlipidemia and smoking excess,
which are widely detected and treated. Recently, it has been widely recognized that new
mechanical factors should be detected and treated and involves specifically pulsatile
arterial hemodynamic (PAH) parameters such as: arterial stiffness, pulse pressure, and,
to a lesser extent, augmentation index and pulse pressure amplification. The pedagogic
aspect of this new CV specialty involves 3 principal parts: a.
-Basic concepts and pathophysiological mechanisms of PAHb. -Clinical aspects and endorgan damage in PAHc. - Clinical pharmacology and therapeutics of PAH This book
represents the first that spans basic science and clinical management of this new CV
subspecialty.
Much has been learned regarding the management of these patients in recent years and
this book presents extensive data on the techniques needed to maximize outcomes.

Heart failure is defined as the weakening of the heart's pumping power, and that it is
unable to adequately supply the body with oxygen and nutrients. As the heart weakens
it tends to stretch and stiffen under the stress. The kidneys respond by causing the
body to retain fluid.
Textbook of Clinical Echocardiography, 5th Edition enables you to use echocardiography
to its fullest potential in your initial diagnosis, decision making, and clinical management
of patients with a wide range of heart diseases. World-renowned cardiologist Dr.
Catherine M.
If fluid builds up in the arms, legs, ankles, feet, lungs, or other organs, the body
becomes congested, and congestive heart failure is the term used to describe the
condition. Heart failure is the result of heart damage that can be caused by a number
of diseases, including coronary artery disease, cardiomyopathy, atrial fibrillation,
hypertension, valvular disease, diabetes, or combinations of these disorders. The
individual chapters in Heart Failure reflects the manifestations of heart failure that are
commonly encountered by the practicing cardiologist and encompasses heart failure
as a new diagnosis, as a chronic problem, end-stage heart failure, heart failure
associated with other cardiac disease and with other systemic diseases.
Otto helps you master what you need to know to obtain the detailed anatomic and
physiologic information that can be gained from the full range of echo techniques, from
basic to advanced.
There are also two specific chapters on determining prognosis and evaluating familial
disease. Heart Failure: A Case-Based Atlas features: practical, visual approach to
commonly seen but complex management problems in heart failure; case
presentations demonstrate real world clinical management decisions and applications
of current guidelines and evidence in specific situations; comprehensive coverage the
wide range of clinical presentations and medical and surgical management courses;
and video loops of select procedures available online.
