Remarkable improvements in cardiac survival rates have made
cardiovascular critical care much more common, but no less
challenging for the practitioner. This important volume draws on
the skills of an expert team of editors and contributors to present
a timely overview of clinical practice.
The book covers the full range of the field, from pre-operative
assessment and the haematological complications of cardiovascular
surgery and critical care to the care of patients with:
·
Arrhythmias
· Heart
Failure
· Adult
Congenital Heart Disease
· Mitral
Valve Disease
· Aortic
Valve Disease
· Infective
Endocarditis
·
Vasculitis
The authors also address the special problems associated with
the management of conditions consequent upon pregnancy, eclampsia,
and the hypertensive crisis.
With high-quality illustrations and a helpful index,
Cardiovascular Critical Care gives you access to information
that helps you provide the best possible care to your patients.
