Medical : Cardiovascular

Providing optimal care for heart failure patients is a complex challenge that requires cooperation and coordination across multiple disciplines. Now, you can apply the successful techniques pioneered at the Cleveland Clinic, which are carefully explored and explained in this text.Drs. McCarthy and Young draw on their experience to show how an interdisciplinary team works together to:- arrive at a proper diagnosis- initiate medical therapy- make decisions regarding the best use of percutaneous therapies, surgical therapies, electrical therapies, and the use of mechanical circulatory support devices and transplantation.Throughout the book, they present the most updated evidence for both drug trials and surgical trials. They emphasize the benefits of performing the most complete surgery that is practical, then continuing medical therapy. Each chapter focuses on one aspect of treatment, but the authors recognize that the best way to manage an individual patient is often to adapt a variety of different therapies. They state their opinions clearly, identifying which part of care is science and which is art.Heart Failure: A Combined Medical and Surgical Approach is a true collaboration that helps you identify the most effective strategies - operative interventions, pacing and ICD treatment, new diagnostic tools, and pharmacotherapeutic developments - and implement them for your patients. more...
