Cardiac Pacing (Practical Cardiac Diagnosis) - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

Eminently readable and well-illustrated, this book provides an excellent overview of cardiac pacing. All chapters have been revised and updated, with new sections on implantable cardioverter defibrillators and additional information on rate adaptive pacing, mode switching and lead extraction. Designed primarily as a practical guide for the busy cardiologist involved with pacemaker patients, this book details the basic principles of permanent and temporary cardiac pacing, but it will also be useful to cardiology residents, general internists, cardiac nurses, medical students and pacemaker technicians. The volume provides information on each aspect of evaluating the potential pacemaker patient--beginning with current clinical indications for temporary and permanent pacing; then to methods and basic concepts, mode selection, surgical aspects and potential complications and timing cycles; and finally, to troubleshooting and follow-up.
