Synopsis

In the new edition of this popular pocket manual of cardiology, the author has updated the text to reflect the rapid pace of change in clinical cardiology. There are new sections on care of patients with prosthetic heart valves and on testing for disorders of heart rhythm. Coverage of thrombolysis, heart failure, infective endocarditis, echocardiography and electrophysiology has been expanded. The book aims to be a clear, concise guide to the management of medical problems in the cardiac patient and contains up-to-date information on the drugs available in the UK and Europe with dosage guidelines, and much drug information in table form. There is discussion of symptoms, physical signs, appropriate investigations and management as well as numerous clear line drawings and new guidelines on heart disease and fitness to drive.
