Clinical Cardiac Pacing, Defibrillation and Resynchronization Therapy

"A major strength of this book is the availability of real-time videos, especially helpful to brush up on implantation techniques, with most operators speaking as they demonstrate..The book is exhaustive and spans the spectrum of knowledge extending from early device principles all the way to recent developments such as the leadless pacemaker and subcutaneous defibrillator, to future concepts such as the biological pacemaker..All of the information is provided seamlessly in the context of basic principles and practical clinical management, a feat that can often be difficult to accomplish. In summary, this new textbook is a comprehensive source of current information regarding CIEDs for trainees and practitioners, whether they are clinicians or researchers in the field of clinical cardiac electrophysiology.”2017 BMA Awards: Highly Commended, Cardiology  "This is a must-have resource for electrophysiology fellows and cardiology fellows interested in implanting devices. The author and his team have made a tremendous effort to keep this book up to date in the rapidly evolving field of implantable cardiac devices."-Ronald Chong-Yik, MD, MPH (Ochsner Clinic Foundation) for Doody's Review Service"A major strength of this book is the availability of real-time videos, especially helpful to brush up on implantation techniques, with most operators speaking as they demonstrate..The book is exhaustive and spans the spectrum of knowledge extending from early device principles all the way to recent developments such as the leadless pacemaker and subcutaneous defibrillator, to future concepts such as the biological pacemaker..
