Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Withering demonstrated 200 years ago in the year 1784 that 'drop sy' could be successfully treated with foxglove extracts. This dis covery eventually led to the scientifically based treatment of heart failure with chemically defined digitalis glycosides. In Germany, particularly, the usefulness of this development was greatly exagger ated and often resulted in the indiscrimate use of digitalis for pa tients with coronary artery disease and its complications. Today, this type of drug intervention is used more sparingly. At the same time, other therapeutic concepts were introduced, particularly that of drug-induced diuresis and the concept of vasodilation. This book is the result of a systematic study of various therapeu tic approaches for the management of heart failure and includes clinical, experimental and theoretical aspects. For more than a de cade, various therapeutic modalities have been clinically evaluated in the setting of acute heart failure managed in the intensive care unit as well as chronic heart failure for inpatient and outpatient therapy. Experience has shown that in certain clinical situations, particu larly the management of acute disease, specific, individual drug in tervention is required and is based on the underlying etiology for heart failure. However, in chronic heart failure, long-term success can only be achieved by the rational combination of treatment mo dalities. The present text is aimed at providing the clinically and scientif ically oriented physician with the pathophysiologic and pharmaco logic background necessary to place into perspective the therapeutic efforts for the management of heart failure.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - As the population ages, the medical profession predicts that the prevalence of heart failure will continue to increase at least through 2030. Advances in medical and surgical therapy are allowing more people to survive acute cardiac events and to live longer with heart failure; however, morbidity and mortality remain high. MCS has become mainstay therapy for severe acute and chronic heart failure. Management of heart failure patients receiving mechanical circulatory support (MCS) is complex and requires care from multiple medical specialties to achieve positive outcomes.The purpose of this book is to provide comprehensive contemporary information on the management of patients with acute or chronic severe heart failure who are being treated with MCS. The main emphasis throughout this book is management based on current best practices. There are three sections: (1) Management of Acute Heart Failure, (2) Management of Chronic Heart Failure, and (3) Special Considerations in the Management of Advanced Heart Failure. The first two sections begin with overview chapters to provide a basis for the subsequent chapters.This book is a must-have resource for general Cardiologists, Heart Failure Cardiologists, Cardiac Surgeons, Intensivists, Nurse Practitioners, Nurses, Perfusionists and ventricular assist device (VAD) Coordinators. Topics covered in the text will also be of interest to Radiologists, Hematologists and Pathologists. Postgraduate trainees in cardiovascular medicine will be a key readership. Students in medicine and nursing will use this text to gather a basic understanding of the care of patient with severe heart failure.…
