Robert A. O. Rourke Libros

Provides the reader with a practical approach to the treatment of patients with cardioavascular disease.

This is the first book in a two-volume set. Along with a strong focus on patient care the new Hurst's THE HEART includes a new look and organization. Each chapter has been systematically overhauled with an emphasis on streamlining the content for a focused presentation of the LATEST THERAPEUTIC STRATEGIES and the EVIDENCE-BASED DATA that support them. CLINICAL GUIDELINES are included to equip you with the critical information for optimal patient care in an increasingly time-pressured, cost/benefit environment. WHAT'S NEW in the Tenth Edition * Expanded coverage of molecular biology of blood vessels and myocardium * More information on testing modalities--especially those related to nuclear myocardial perfusion imaging, MRI and PET * New emphasis on managing heart failure, including interventional techniques and new drug therapy strategies * Additional chapters on the biology of coronary heart disease * Expanded sections related to prevention, diagnosis and treatment * More emphasis on integrating the science of cardiac care with treatment * Easy-to-reference, evidence-based practice guidelines where appropriate * New insight on the human genome project and its implications * Techniques for clinical evaluation of the patient * Late-breaking reports on clinical trials * Heart disease in diabetics * New sections on nonsurgical interventions in cardial and peripheral vascular disease

Manuál shrnuje klinickou část 12. vydání HURST´S the HEART do praktické příručky, která předkládá čtenáři klíčové body kardiovaskulární patofyziologie, diagnostiky a léčby v přehledné a didakticky přístupné formě. Sepsal ji stejný autorský kolektiv jako "velkou publikaci" HURST´S the HEART, 12. vydání, ovšem manuál obsahuje navíc oproti této knize tabulky a algoritmy doporučených postupů, které umožňují rychlou orientaci v problému a volbu odpovídajícího diagnostiko-léčebného postupu.
