Ventricular arrhythmias and sudden death are responsible for
hundreds of thousands of deaths each year throughout the world.
Covering the most recent developments in this field, this leading
text serves as a guide to this area of increasing clinical
importance, addressing a wide range of topics, including:
* basic mechanisms of ventricular tachycardia and ventricular
fibrillation
* clinical syndromes and etiologies
* epidemiology and risk stratification
* pharmacologic therapy
* ablation and surgery
* implantable defibrillators
Ventricular Arrhythmias and Sudden Cardiac Death provides
the information that cardiologists, cardiac electrophysiologists,
cardiac electrophysiology fellows, scientists, industry, and
associated professionals need to know about current and evolving
Ventricular Tachyarrhythmia treatment and diagnosis. As the most
comprehensive book on this topic, it will serve as the text that
this readership will turn to first.
