Synopsis

Maintaining and enhancing the features that made the previous editions so popular, this authoritative volume investigates the vast scope of silent coronary artery disease - with important implications for its prevention, treatment and management. The third edition of "Silent Myocardial Ischemia and Infarction", organizes all available data on the various aspects of these syndromes bringing the reader up to date on every facet of this rapidly expanding field of research, examining: the pathophysiology and prevalence of asymptomatic heart disease; the detection of ischemic episodes with Holter monitoring and other non-invasive procedures; the progress of studies concerned with whether or not the abolition of ischaemia will improve prognosis; current therapeutic interventions; and more. Providing nearly 500 bibliographic citations, including 150 new references, for further study of up-to-the-minute developments, "Silent Myocardial Ischemia and Infarction, should be of use to cardiologists, cardiovascular and thoracic surgeons, internists, family physicians specializing in cardiology, public health physicians, physiologists, and medical students studying cardiology.
