Arythmie
A comprehensive clinical resource that describes how to recognize and treat cardiac arrhythmias. Each chapter clearly presents discussion of a specific arrhythmia with consideration of incidence, age and sex, genetics, clinical setting, history and physical examination, electrocardiography, laboratory studies, hemodynamic effects, pathology, clinical electrophysiology, treatment and prognosis. Completely updated and revised to reflect the latest information, this clearly written text is designed for a broad range of health care workers.
• New or significantly revised coverage includes atrioventricular block and right ventricular infarction
• circadian patterns of paroxysmal tachyarrhythmias
• clinical and molecular genetics of the long QT syndrome
• frequency of clots in the left atria of patients with atrial flutter
• intracardiac and transesophageal echotechniques for guiding ablation of tachyarrhythmias
• intraarterial cardioversion of atrial fibrillation
• and much more!
Previously a multi-authored book, this 2nd Edition is written almost exclusively by John A. Kastor, MDresulting in a more uniform and user-friendly presentation than ever.
• Each clinical chapter uses a consistent format to examine a specific arrhythmia, discussing its incidence
• genetic factors
• clinical setting
• history and physical examination
• electrocardi
• laboratory studies
• hemodynamic effects
• pathology
• clinical electrophysiology
• treatment
• and prognosis.
Discussions of incidence address predisposition with regard to age and gender, race and ethnicity, and socioeconomic influences.
• Content and references reflect all relevant work in the field for the past 30 years.
