This companion to Braunwald's Heart Disease equips you with all of today's most effective therapeutic guidelines and management solutions for the full range of heart disease patients. It reflects the most recent standards for drug management as well as the latest in new technologies. Reorganized to mirror your changing practice, each cardiovascular-problem-based section offers a chapter on pharmacologic treatment (with a minimum of pathophysiology)...a chapter on catheter-based or minimally invasive interventions...and a discussion of surgical options. You'll also find a brand-new chapter on gene therapy and stem cell therapy, plus new chapters on many other rapidly developing areas of practice. The result is an outstanding single-volume source for state-of-the-art, clinically oriented guidance on both common and unusual areas of cardiovascular treatment. Facilitates the decision-making process clinicians face when choosing among various cardiovascular therapeutic options. covers the latest concepts in pathophysiology, evaluation, and management of patients with cardiovascular disorders Addresses pharmacological, interventional, and surgical management approaches for each type of cardiovascular disease, putting advice on the full range of therapeutic options at your disposal. Keeps you current with brand-new chapters on gene therapy and stem cell therapy * unstable and chronic stable angina * management of unstable angina and non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction * devices for heart failure and arrhythmias * prevention of ischemic disease * the regulatory approval process for new cardiovascular drugs and devices * and more. Delivers a fully revised section on "Heart Failure" that explores cardiac resynchronization therapy, surgical interventions, ambulatory management, hospital management, and cardiac transplantation and circulatory support devices. Offers a completely updated section on "Other Cardiovascular Conditions" that addresses issues such as pharmacologic treatment of cardiovascular disease during pregnancy * care for adults with congenital heart disease * treatment of primary pulmonary hypertension * prevention and treatment of infective endocarditis * treatment of pericardial disease * and rehabilitation of the patient with cardiovascular disease. Reflects a new emphasis on the role of diet and exercise in the management of cardiovascular problems in conformity with ACC/AHA/ESC guidelines.

Building on the strong foundation provided by the 6th edition of Braunwald's Heart Disease, this thoroughly revised and updated reference is now more user-friendly and clinically useful than ever. Extensively cross-referenced with tables and figures, it facilitates the decision-making process clinicians face when choosing among various cardiovascular therapeutic options. This new edition of Cardiovascular Therapeutics covers the latest concepts in pathophysiology, evaluation, and management of patients with cardiovascular disorders-in partnership with the Braunwald text for a comprehensive yet focused clinical resource. Reflects the information explosion that has occurred in cardiovascular therapeutics over the past five years. Contains cutting-edge information on pharmacotherapeutic, surgical, and catheter-based therapies for cardiovascular disease. Features an emphasis on user-friendly, clinically relevant information in a format that is fast and easy-to-access. Extensive details of all interventions are highlighted in text, tables, and crisp, high-quality illustrations. Provides an up-to-date source for interpretation of clinical data, drug interactions, available devices, and indications for therapy A new section on Decision-Making Tools describes the principles of test analysis, design and interpretation of randomized trials; the use of cost-effectiveness and decision analysis; and bedside assays for assessment of cardiovascular therapeutics. Three new appendices offer a thorough index of all the drugs and technological support devices commonly used in contemporary cardiovascular therapeutics, particularly regarding dose recommendations and drug interactions. Contains 13 all-new chapters, plus 41 chapters that have undergone major revision and/or feature new authors. An extremely useful table shows modification of Sicilian Gambit classification of AA Rx and effects on ECG. Covers important revisions on the latest RCT data on the use of stains. Features excellent surgical diagrams for MV repair. Discusses cutting-edge, catheter-based approaches to management of adults with congenital heart disease (e.g., closure of ASDs).
