Variants of Ventricular Preexcitation: Recognition and Treatment
“ Variants of Ventricular Preexcitation: Recognition and Treatment provides a unique opportunity for general cardiologists and electrophysiologists to find in one text the intricacies of recognizing and treating a group of disorders that has intrigued physicians for more than 100 years.” --from the Foreword by Mark E. Josephson, MD, Chief, Cardiovascular Division, Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, Boston, USA
Drs Sternick and Wellens combine their expertise in the diagnosis and treatment of cardiac arrhythmias to bring you this complete overview of decrementally conducting accessory pathways and their role in cardiac arrhythmias.
This is the first book dedicated to these special types of accessory pathways, their recognition and management. By covering the uncommon varieties of ventricular preexcitation, this book supports you in improving patient care by:
- Helping you to identify decrementally conducting AV fibers- which comprise 3-5 % of all accessory AV pathways
- Explaining exactly what information can be obtained from the 12-lead ECG
- Showing how to identify and localize these pathways during an electrophysiologic study
- Detailing the proper treatment and how to treat these patients
By explaining the fundamental pathophysiology as well as the diverse clinical presentation of arrhythmias, Drs Sternick and Wellens demystify the subject of the different variants of decrementally conducting accessory pathways leading to ventricular pre-excitation and their role in cardiac arrhythmias..

Handbook of Contrast Echocardiography: Left Ventricular Function and Myocardial Perfusion
Ultrasound contrast is rapidly becoming an integral part of echocardiography, the technique most widely used to image the heart. This book is the result of the authors' combined experience in research into the agents and their associated imaging techniques and in clinical application of contrast echocardiography over a period of ten years. Its aim is to provide the clinical echocardiographer with a complete guide and reference for performing and interpreting a contrast echo study. The copious illustrations accompanying the text are supplemented by the generous contributions of more than a dozen worldwide authorities who have provided cases that convincingly demonstrate the general applicability of this new technology..

Ventricular Arrhythmias and Sudden Cardiac Death
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..

Intracardiac Echocardiography in Interventional Electrophysiology: Advanced Management of Atrial Fibrillation and Ventricular Tachycardia
Focusing on anatomy and procedural strategy for atrial fibrillation and ventricular tachycardia, this atlas uses pictures and schematic diagrams to show how to use intracardiac echo (ICE) to assess anatomy, guide ablation, and prevent complications during interventional procedures, pulmonary vein stenosis, and embolic events. The authors review the state of the art and background support in the use of ICE in interventional electrophysiology procedures and the anatomy of both the atrial and ventricular chambers. They discuss innovative indications in the EP laboratory, future technologies such as 3-D echocardiography, and the integration of ICE with other types of imaging technology..

Ventricular Function and Blood Flow in Congenital Heart Disease
Infants, children and adolescents with congenital heart disease (CHD) are a challenge to manage and an ever-increasing number are reaching adulthood. CHD is one of the most important topics in cardiology today, yet this book is the only clinically-orientated monograph devoted exclusively to ventricular function and blood flow as it relates to CHD. It is essential that not only pediatricians, pediatric cardiologists, cardiac surgeons and cardiac anesthesiologists familiarize themselves with all the nuances of this branch of pediatrics, but that family practitioners, internists, adult cardiologists and intensivists do so as well. Written by a distinguished panel of cardiologists, bioengineers, physiologists, and clinical investigators, Ventricular Function and Blood Flow in Congenital Heart Disease is an extensive and comprehensive presentation of the key aspects of this branch of CHD. This textbook can be used as both a learning tool and reference, or as a springboard to further study in the field..
