Cardiac Electrophysiology (eBook) von Andrea Natale

Clinical cardiac electrophysiology is one of the most rapidly expanding fields in cardiology. This book offers a case based review of cardiac electrophysiology. It includes implantable device cases as well as ablation cases and difficult clinical cases.

Introduction.-Section 1: Ablation: Supraventricular Arrhythmias.- Atrial fibrillation.- Atrial Flutter.- Ventricular Arrhythmias.-Section 2: Devices: Pacemakers.- Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillators.- Biventricular devices.-Section 3: Clinical cases: Syncope.- Athletes and arrhythmias.- Ventricular arrhythmias.- Atrial fibrillation& atrial aflutter.- Supraventricular arrhythmias.- Arrhythmias associated with genetic abnormalities.- Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.

Clinical cardiac electrophysiology is one of the most rapidly expanding fields in cardiology. There are currently no comprehensive case based books in this field. A Case Review of Cardiac Electrophysiology is a case based review of cardiac electrophysiology. The aim of this book is to provide a comprehensive case based review of cardiac electrophysiology. It will include implantable device cases as well as ablation cases and difficult clinical cases and may be used as a useful review in cardiac electrophysiology for those taking board examinations. There will also be cases that will be useful for associate professionals working in the field of cardiac electrophysiology including those individuals working for industry.
