Elliott M. Antman - Cardiovascular Therapeutics - A Companion to Braunwald's Heart Disease (3rd edition)Published: 2006-12-28 | ISBN: 1416033580 | PDF | 984 pages | 19.98 MB
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.
