Opis

Now reaching a larger audience, this book] serves as an excellent
overall contribution to the rapidly evolving field of interventional
cardiology. -- Doody Enterprises, Inc.
Loaded with tips, tricks, and expert solutions to everyday clinical problems,
this book is a must for all specialists and trainees performing cardiac
catheterizations. It covers basic principles, diagnostic strategies for specific
diseases, and the newest interventional techniques, giving readers the tools to
successfully manage all types of valvular and structural heart disease.Special Features:

• Concisely
  reviews the basics of cardiac catheterization, with sections on indications,
  risks and complications, patient preparation, equipment and laboratory setup,
  contrast media, and interpretation of findings
• Covers the full range of
  interventional catheter techniques, including percutaneous coronary intervention
  (PCI), coronary stent implantation, rotational athetectomy, cutting balloon
  angioplasty, shunt closure, and much more
• Examines current, evidence-based
  diagnostic approaches to such commonly seen conditions as valvular disease,
  cardiomyopathies, coronary artery disease, congenital heart disorders,
  pericardial disease, aortic dissection, and more
• Describes key new
  interventions for structural heart disease, including transcatheter aortic valve
  implantation (TAVI), interventions for mitral regurgitation (Mitraclip),
  occlusion of the left atrial appendage (LAA-Occlusion), and renal nerve ablation
  for resistant arterial hypertension
• Provides hundreds of illustrations,
  coronary angiograms, and radiographic images that clarify every concept
• 
  Demonstrates step-by-step approaches, case studies, and detailed angiographic
  sequences in nearly 400 helpful videos

From the fundamentals to the newest
therapeutic advances, this book provides the core information needed by every
practice performing diagnostic and interventional cardiac
catheterizations. It is essential for interventional cardiologists,
cardiology fellows, and interventional radiologists who want to quickly increase
their knowledge and skills and offer optimal care to their
patients.
