DOWNLOAD EBOOKPeripheral and Cerebrovascular Intervention draws upon experts from diverse fields to provide readers with a comprehensive foundation for understanding and performing endovascular procedures—from the basic steps to the most current and advanced techniques. Individual chapters focus on primary intervention sites, including lower extremity, renal/mesenteric, subclavian/upper extremity, carotid/vertebral, intracranial and venous interventions. Additionally, chapters covering critical limb ischemia and abdominal and thoracic aortic aneurysms are included. By incorporating valuable clinical information, such as indications, contraindications, complications and discussions of surgical techniques and procedures, this book is a valuable resource for the busy practitioner and will be of interest to all interventional and general cardiologists, radiologists and neurologists; vascular surgeons; internists and residents and fellows.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis manual is a practical how-to guide to vascular interventional procedures for all arteries and veins outside the coronary vascular system. The book provides the information needed to evaluate patients and perform procedures and describes the actual techniques used by experienced practitioners, including anticoagulants, antithrombotics, wires, guides, angioplasty, and stents. More than 400 illustrations complement the text. Chapters on each artery cover indications for interventional procedures, vascular anatomy, access, diagnostic angiography, and specific interventional techniques. Complications and risks of restenosis are also discussed. The book also includes a chapter on training and credentialing in peripheral vascular intervention.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKNow on its Second Edition, Practical Peripheral Vascular Intervention is a how-to guide to state-of-the-art vascular interventional procedures for all arteries and veins outside the coronary vascular system. Artery-specific chapters cover indications for interventional procedures, vascular anatomy, access, diagnostic angiography, and specific interventional techniques used by experienced practitioners. This edition encompasses recent developments in the field--including improvements in catheter, sheath, wire, balloon, and stent design, as well as the advent of distal emboli protection and other novel technologies. Discover what makes this resource clinically essential and visually informative... * Generously illustrated format (including over 300 large-size images) "shows" rather than "tells" trainees and clinicians the best approach to treatment. * Practical, how-to approach provides practical guidance to the interventionalist. * Authoritative contributions from editors who are practicing interventional cardiologists let readers benefit from both established and emerging technologies. New to the Second Edition... * New content addresses venous filters, venous thrombosis, and central venous occlusion. * Expanded section covers advances in intracranial stenting. * Increased coverage of cardiac noninvasive modalities broadens therapeutic options. * Larger page size allows for larger and additional images.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis e-book will review special features of the cerebral circulation and how they contribute to the physiology of the brain. It describes structural and functional properties of the cerebral circulation that are unique to the brain, an organ with high metabolic demands and the need for tight water and ion homeostasis. Autoregulation is pronounced in the brain, with myogenic, metabolic and neurogenic mechanisms contributing to maintain relatively constant blood flow during both increases and decreases in pressure. In addition, unlike peripheral organs where the majority of vascular resistance resides in small arteries and arterioles, large extracranial and intracranial arteries contribute significantly to vascular resistance in the brain. The prominent role of large arteries in cerebrovascular resistance helps maintain blood flow and protect downstream vessels during changes in perfusion pressure. The cerebral endothelium is also unique in that its barrier properties are in some way more like epithelium than endothelium in the periphery. The cerebral endothelium, known as the blood-brain barrier, has specialized tight junctions that do not allow ions to pass freely and has very low hydraulic conductivity and transcellular transport. This special configuration modifies Starling's forces in the brain microcirculation such that ions retained in the vascular lumen oppose water movement due to hydrostatic pressure. Tight water regulation is necessary in the brain because it has limited capacity for expansion within the skull. Increased intracranial pressure due to vasogenic edema can cause severe neurologic complications and death.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe Handbook of Endovascular Peripheral Interventions has been written to serve as a comprehensive guide for both the beginner and advanced interventionalist. Covering all aspects of percutaneous peripheral vascular interventions, each chapter of this highly illustrated book provides a brief background, etiology, clinical presentation, imaging, and percutaneous treatment of different vascular conditions. Importantly, Tips of the Trade and How I Do It sections within each chapter make the handbook practical for daily use. These invaluable pearls are provided by contributing chapter authors who are experts in the field. Edited by Dr. Christopher D. Owens (Division of Vascular Surgery) and Dr. Yerem Yeghiazarians (Division of Interventional Cardiology), from the University of California San Francisco School of Medicine, the Handbook of Endovascular Peripheral Interventions is a collaborative effort between cardiologists, vascular surgeons, and radiologists. Since each subspecialty brings unique expertise and experience to the field, this handbook will be a valuable resource for all physicians currently working in peripheral vascular interventions.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKCardiovascular, respiratory, and related conditions cause more than 40 percent of all deaths globally, and their substantial burden is rising, particularly in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). Their burden extends well beyond health effects to include significant economic and societal consequences. Most of these conditions are related, share risk factors, and have common control measures at the clinical, population, and policy levels. Lives can be extended and improved when these diseases are prevented, detected, and managed. This volume summarizes current knowledge and presents evidence-based interventions that are effective, cost-effective, and scalable in LMICs.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis comprehensive clinical reference describes the full range of endovascular interventions currently used for peripheral vascular problems. The first section provides essential information on peripheral vascular diseases, including etiology, clinical and laboratory evaluation, and imaging before performing a procedure. The second section explains the physics, techniques, and clinical uses of all vascular imaging modalities. The major portion of the book covers specific arterial and venous interventions for each anatomic region. These chapters address clinical issues, indications, patient selection, procedural and technical considerations, results, and post-procedural management, and discuss available devices and pharmaceuticals. More than 1,100 illustrations complement the text.
