The classic primer for treating arrhythmias safely and effectively―updated with new technologies, approaches, and guidelines
For
25 years, Cardiac Arrhythmias has been the go-to guide for
non-specialists seeking a solid foundation in electrophysiology and its
relationship to treating arrhythmias. Now, the pioneer and father of
modern clinical electrophysiology, Eric Prystowsky, teams up with
globally renowned experts to bring this landmark guide fully up to date.
In
clear, engaging language, Cardiac Arrhythmias delivers everything you
need to know about the practical application of electrophysiological
principles. It covers basic electrocardiographic observations and
clinical electrophysiologic correlates, including in-depth discussions
of cardiac conduction, and provides a close look at specific
arrhythmias, with diagnostic information from patient history, physical
examination, lab tests, and therapy approaches. Subsequent chapters
explore common clinical presentations of arrhythmias, diagnostic
techniques, and therapeutic modalities.
Whether you’re an internist, family practitioner, physician assistant, or nurse practitioner, the integrated approach of Cardiac Arrhythmias will help you deliver the highest-quality care to every patient.
