In the rapidly evolving field of treating cardiac arrhythmias, the importance of direct management of patients with implantable cardiac devices is growing. The devices have become increasingly complex, and understanding their algorithms and growing programming options is essential for physicians who implant and manage them. Written by experts and world authorities in the field, Pacemakers and Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillators: An Expert's Manual provides electrophysiologists, fellows in training, nurses, and cardiovascular technicians involved in day-to-day management of device patients with detailed information about the many device algorithms and interactions.Heavily illustrated with over 300 figures and tablesUniquely meets the day-to-day needs of all direct management professionalsFocuses in detail on algorithmsDescribes device interactions, addressing every major manufacturerProvides in-depth insight into pacing, including biventricular pacingDiscusses arrhythmia detection and device classification, testing, and therapyPacemakers and Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillators: An Expert's Manual was listed by the American Journal of Cardiology as one of the "Good Books in Cardiovascular Disease in 2010." - American Journal of Cardiology Vol. 107, Issue 8, Pages 1250-1251

The Clinical Cardiac Electrophysiology Handbook, Second Edition, is a concise presentation of the practical information needed to understand the subtleties of cardiac electrophysiology. The Handbook focuses on the "e;how to"e; management of arrhythmias, along with an understanding of the "e;why."e;"e;. . . a quick source for information in the EP lab or on the wards, as well as a guide to learning-offering the ability to quickly review the essential components before a case or to reinforce new notions and practices encountered during a case."e;

Fact-based and clinically-focused, this new third edition of Essential Cardiac Electrophysiology: The Self-Assessment Approach is an ideal reference in a bullet-point format that provides a concise and essential overview of electrophysiology. Packed with ABIM-style 200 multiple-choice questions designed to aid readers' understanding of key concepts and retention of essential facts, it is an excellent study aid for electrophysiology fellows, cardiology fellows, and electrophysiologists preparing for board examination or other EP certifications. Comprehensively updated with the latest recommendations and findings, it includes multiple tables, electrophysiology tracings and illustrations, and a treasury of electrophysiology pearls. This expanded Third Edition includes new chapters on AV blocks, channelopathies, and ventricular arrhythmias in a structurally normal heart, along with enhanced coverage of: Electrophysiologic aspects of AVNRT and AVRT Long and short RP tachycardia Parahisian pacing Bystander activation of accessory pathways Brugada syndrome Long QT syndrome and pregnancy A note on the questions: All the questions are ABIM style. Some of the questions have a tangential approach, i.e., not only one has to know the correct diagnosis but also has to know the correct management approach. Some questions are "e;concept"e; questions; i.e., it is to evaluate a basic concept to verify understanding.

Practical Electrophysiology is a detailed presentation of the fundamental aspects of electrophysiology written by an internationally recognized group of experts. To fully engage the reader and to help facilitate the learning process, 77 case studies covering ECGs, SVTs, atrial fibrillation, ventricular tachycardia and more are included not only with questions, but also with a full discussion of the answers.From the Preface:A plethora of significant new research and findings makes it difficult to keep up with the ever-changing field of electrophysiology. Despite these constant advances, there are fundamental aspects of the science that need to be understood by students of electrophysiology. This book was created to educate and uses cases and questions to keep the reader engaged. Chapter and case topics were chosen so that the information presented is useful for years to come. My associate editors and I are hopeful that this book will prove a useful tool for those interested in the field of electrophysiology. We also are very grateful to all the contributing authors for spending their time and effort to help create this handy but comprehensive and interesting work.Jasbir Sra, Milwaukee

Now in an abridged second edition, Electrophysiological Foundations of Cardiac Arrhythmias focuses on teaching the fundamental concepts of cardiac cellular electrophysiology with an emphasis on the relationship of basic mechanisms to clinical cardiac arrhythmias.

A comprehensive and state-of-the-art reference on percutaneous epicardial interventions for clinical cardiac electrophysiologists.

If you understand heart failure, you understand cardiologyThis book applies practical clinical concepts to the latest four-stage model of heart failure from preclinical risk and early asymptomatic disease to classic symptomatic heart failure and finally advanced heart failure. This framework emphasizes a tailored approach to ongoing heart failure assessment to guide therapy and improve outcomes. Features: Illustrated with over 250 full-color figures Specific recommendations backed by clinical trial data Practical algorithms for diagnosis and therapyTopics include: Prevention of heart failure Identification and treatment of structural heart disease prior to heart failure How to combine lifestyle changes, medications, and devices to improve outcomes Reversing decompensated heart failure Key indicators of advanced heart failure and appropriate treatment options Emerging new therapies

A collection of 50 of Dr. Mark E. Josephson's groundbreaking journal articles that demonstrate his important contributions as a pioneer and teacher of modern cardiac arrhythmology over the course of 42 years. Each article not only includes a discussion by a peer of the significance of the defining paper, but also includes personal impressions of Dr. Josephson as a clinical scientist, doctor, teacher, role model, and friend.
