Beskrivning

This new title in the American Heart Association Clinical Series offers an up-to-date overview of the causes and damage related to dyssynchronopathy - a new pathophysiological entity related to spontaneous or pacing-induced mechanical abnormalities which causes heart failure.This is a critical and evolving area in cardiology, and this new book covers the state of the art issues, including: management of heart failureselection of the heart failure patient for device implantationdevice selectionprogramming and troubleshootingnon-invasive imaging of the heart failure patient.Pacing to Support the Failing Heart presents the most recent diagnostic non-invasive tools and offers multiple figures, tables, algorithms, summaries of clinical trials and clinically important information for all cardiologists, whilst providing simple, practice-oriented therapeutic proposals for heart failure patients.
