Book Description
The final decades of this century have been a period of expansive growth for the electrophysiological management of cardiac arrhythmias. Subsequently, the rapid and widespread clinical application of so many technological advances has made the exchange of ideas in this field an urgent necessity. Cardiac Arrhythmias and Device Therapy: Results and Perspectives for the New Century addresses the issue by gathering current, relevant information in a clear, user-friendly format. This book covers a broad spectrum of subjects, including basic electrophysiology (impulse propagation, subthreshold stimulation, genetics and the molecular base of arrhythmias), invasive and noninvasive clinical electrophysiology, and the clinical aspects of cardiac pacing and defibrillation. It provides a comprehensive review of various methods of treatment of atrial fibrillation, and of the role of pacing in prevention of atrial fibrillation and in treatment of congestive heart failure, dilated, hypertrophic, and restrictive cardiomyopathies. The results of recent clinical trials in cardiac pacing and in the prevention and treatment of malignant venticular arrhythmias are also presented. Special sections have been dedicated to the various aspects of preventing sudden death, including the use of internal and external defibrillation. Finally, the book offers a current review of "hot" topics, with personal experiences and critical evaluations by the world-renowned authors. This book will be of interest to all cardiologists, EP technicians, and health care personnel involved in the diagnosis and management of arrhythmias, who wish to gain a complete perspective on modern pacing and electrophysiology.

Device Therapy in Heart Failure
Author: William H. Maisel
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 1597454249
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 400
Book Description
Heart failure affects over 5 million patients in the United States alone, and is a chronic and debilitating disease. While a number of pharmacologic therapies have shown varying degrees of effectiveness, many recent advances in the treatment of heart failure has focused on device based therapies. In Device Therapy in Heart Failure, William H. Maisel and a panel of authorities on the use and implementation of device based therapies provide a comprehensive overview of the current and developing technologies that are used to treat heart failure. Individual chapters provide an in-depth analysis of devices such as CRT’s and ICD’s, while broader topics such as the pathophysiology of heart failure and its current medical therapies are also discussed. Additional topics include Pacing and Defibrillation for Atrial Arrhythmias, Atrial Fibrillation Ablation, and Percutaneous Treatment of Coronary Artery Disease.

Cardiac Pacing and Monitoring
Author: Mart Min
Publisher: BoD – Books on Demand
ISBN: 1838801790
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 106
Book Description
Different artificial tools, such as heart-pacing devices, wearable and implantable monitors, engineered heart valves and stents, and many other cardiac devices, are in use in medical practice. Recent developments in the methods of cardiac pacing along with appropriate selection of equipment are the purpose of this book. Implantable heart rate management devices and wearable cardiac monitors are discussed. Indications for using specific types of cardiac pacemakers, cardiac resynchronization therapy devices, and implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICDs) are of interest and their contraindications are considered. Special attention is paid to using leadless devices. The subcutaneous ICD obviates the need for transvenous leads and leadless pacemakers are entirely implantable into the right ventricle. Finally, applications of user-friendly wearable devices for the detection of atrial arrhythmia are debated.
