Celia Oakley & Carole A. Warnes 
Heart Disease in Pregnancy [PDF ebook] 

Ondersteuning

The new edition of this practical guide draws on the clinical
skills of a wide range of international experts to help you
recognize and manage heart disease in pregnancy. Designed for
on-the-spot use, this convenient and concise text helps you
identify a cardiac problem, understand its pathophysiology, and
respond appropriately.
Under the careful editorial direction of Drs. Oakley and Warnes,
the Second Edition introduces new contributors from North America
and Europe as well as new chapters on:
* pulmonary hypertension
* rheumatic heart disease
* artificial heart valves
* Marfan syndrome
* auto-immune diseases
* hypertrophic cardiomyopathy
* rhythm disorders
* hypertension
* cardiac intervention
The entire book is scrupulously updated to reflect the most
current standards of care. The contributors – all recognized
leaders in their respective fields – outline the pathway to
diagnosis and appropriate management by a multi-disciplinary
team.
Although heart disease is the leading medical cause of maternal
death, clinical trials in this population are few and the evidence
base is small. The expert recommendations in Heart Disease in
Pregnancy, Second Edition, are a welcome source of information
for cardiologists, obstetricians, general practitioners, and all
members of the patient care team.
