Valvular Heart Disease
Bruce W. Andrus , John C. Baldwin
editore: Manson Publishing Ltd
pagine: 176
The study of valvular heart disease has progressed rapidly over the past two decades. The understanding of etiology and natural history, the precision of noninvasive assessment, and the surgical and interventional management of valve disease have all improved dramatically. Coupled with an appreciation of physiologic principles, thoughtful interviews and physical exam, current technology allows clinicians to characterize all types of valve lesion. In addition, evolving techniques in interventional cardiology and cardiac surgery, guided by quantitative outcome analysis, have reduced the morbidity and mortality of these procedures. Reflecting all the above and evidence-based medical practice, the authors aim to provide a concise and straightforward guide to the recognition and management of valvular heart disease, complemented by current guidelines and abundant high quality images. It will be a valuable reference for all involved in the care of patients with valvular heart disease, including cardiologists in practice and training, young hospital doctors, general physicians, cardiac nurse specialists, and medical students.

editore: Minerva Medica
pagine: 121
L'ipertensione arteriosa è una condizione morbosa molto diffusa nei paesi occidentali e rappresenta il principale fattore di rischio per eventi cardio e cerebrovascolari. La pressione arteriosa è una variabile dinamica e la realtà clinica non consente al medico di effettuare misurazioni dirette, corrispondenti alla continua variabilità di questo parametro emodinamico. Sono tuttavia noti e diffusi molti metodi di misurazione pressoria che consentono al medico, con buona riproducibilità, di valutare l'andamento pressorio del proprio paziente. Ai fini di un corretto inquadramento diagnostico e terapeutico del paziente iperteso è necessario che il medico adotti le corrette manovre di misurazione pressoria.
Il paziente dimesso dopo infarto miocardico. Un problema spinoso
Serena Bergerone , Silvia Brach Prever
editore: Minerva Medica
pagine: 128
Come gestire al meglio il paziente che viene dimesso con diagnosi di infarto miocardico? E' un problema con cui spesso il Medico deve confrontarsi. Non è sempre facile rispondere ai quesiti che il paziente pone: Cosa fare in caso di recidiva di dolore toracico? Che dieta seguire? Come e quando riprendere le normali attività lavorative e ricreative? Come riuscire a smettere di fumare? E' possibile viaggiare in aereo o guidare l'automobile? Quali sport praticare e quali evitare? Con la stesura di questo libro gli autori si sono proposti di rispondere a tutte queste domande e a molte altre ancora, riportando le più recenti acquisizioni della letteratura medico-scientifica e proponendo ai colleghi consigli e indicazioni su come aiutare il paziente a riprendere le attività ordinarie e a ristabilire la dimensione normale della propria quotidianità. I dati riferiti nel testo sono presentati in modo esauriente, schematico, conciso: la ricca iconografia rende il volume di facile e piacevole lettura.

Guida all'adozione dei defribillatori semiautomatici esterni in ospedale
Antonio Destro
editore: Elsevier
pagine: 30
Nelle nuove linee-guida ILCOR 2005 si dà quasi per scontato che negli ospedali sia possibile soccorrere efficacemente e in modo immediato un paziente colto da arresto cardiorespiratorio. Si dà per scontato che vi sia una distribuzione di DAE o defibrillatori manuali e un'organizzazione tale da consentire di erogare la scarica entro tre minuti. Purtroppo ciò può avvenire realmente solo in pochi ospedali. Con questo manuale gli autori mettono a disposizione la loro esperienza con i DAE in ospedale, iniziata a Rimini nel 1992, spiegando come siano riusciti a risolvere i piccoli o grandi problemi logistici, organizzativi e formativi. Lo scopo è quello di attenuare le difficoltà e gli errori che si possono verificare nelle fasi iniziali di attuazione di un Piano Cardiorianimatorio Intraospedaliero (PIC), da integrare nel più ampio quadro dell'emergenza intraospedaliera.

Cardiac Catheterization in Congenital Heart Disease
Pediatric and Adult
Charles E. Mullins
editore: Blackwell Publishing Ltd
pagine: 944
The rapidly growing population of adults surviving with congenital heart lesions along with the success of interventional cardiology in the child and adolescent has spawned an incredible interest in adapting the technology for the adult congenital patients. Dr. Mullins, a pioneer in this area, has written an outstanding reference which covers all aspects of performing diagnostic and therapeutic cardiac catheterization procedures on patients of all ages. This illustrated book details the equipment and techniques for performing safe and successful procedures, with a strong emphasis on avoiding complications. It also includes the requirements of a catheterization laboratory for congenital heart patients, as well as guidance for setting up and operating such a laboratory. Cardiac Catheterization in Congenital Heart Disease serves as an essential manual for pediatric and adult interventional cardiologists worldwide.
Pathology of Sudden Cardiac Death
B. Edwards , J. Edwards
editore: Wiley-Blackwell (an imprint of John Wiley & Sons Ltd)
pagine: 264
Sudden cardiac death represents a highly heterogeneous group of cardiovascular disorders. While some may initially think of sudden death as primarily an arrhythmogenic event, this actually represents the minority of cases of sudden cardiac death. In the vast majority of cases, there is an underlying anatomic disorder of the cardiovascular system responsible for the ultimate hemodynamic collapse known as sudden cardiac death. This book will provide an atlas type review of ischemic and non-ischemic etiologies of sudden cardiac death. Beyond the atlas, however, will be a "clinical pathologic correlation" for each described disorder providing practicing clinicians with practical information to facilitate proper diagnosis and treatment. While an increasing array of noninvasive diagnostic tools continue to develop, the sad fact remains that many of the physicians and operators of these new diagnostic modalities have never actually seen specimens which demonstrate the fundamental pathologic abnormalities. This ability to see first hand the underlying pathology creates an opportunity to advance the science and enhance ones understanding of these disease processes.
There is not a comprehensive text on this subject on the market today which provides clinical and patholigical material in such a comprehensive manner.
Fundamentals of Pediatric Cardiology
David J. Driscoll
editore: Lippincott Williams and Wilkins
pagine: 192
Based on Dr. Driscoll's thirty years of successful bedside teaching at the Mayo Clinic, Fundamentals of Pediatric Cardiology is the ideal textbook for residents in pediatrics, family medicine, internal medicine, and pediatric and adult cardiology. This concise, well-organized, and easy-to-understand text can be read cover-to-cover during a pediatric cardiology rotation and focuses sharply on what primary care physicians need to know for initial evaluation and management of patients. Dr. Driscoll explains the many types of congenital heart defects, focusing on the most frequent cardiac problems in infants, children, and adolescents. Emphasis is on use of new diagnostic tools in conjunction with the physical examination.
