This issue of Interventional Cardiology Clinics, guest edited by Dr. Srihari S. Naidu, will discuss Interventional techniques for Heart Failure. Subjects covered in the articles include, but are not limited to: Invasive Hemodynamics of Myocardial Disease: Systolic and Diastolic Dysfunction; Invasive Hemodynamics of Pericardial Disease: Constriction and Tamponade; Invasive Hemodynamics of Pulmonary Disease and the Right Ventricle; TAVR and MitraClip to Reverse Heart Failure; Mechanical Circulatory Support in Acute Decompensated Heart Failure and Shock; Adult Congenital Interventions in Heart Failure; Future Directions in Device Treatment of Heart Failure; and Prioritizing and Combining Interventional Therapies for Heart Failure, among others.

This issue of Cardiology Clinics, guest edited by Drs. Srihari S. Naidu and Julio A. Panza, will focus on Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy. Articles in this issue include: Historical Perspective and the Diagnostic Dilemma, Echocardiography for Diagnosis and Management, Cardiac Magnetic Resonance for Diagnosis and Risk Stratification, Genetic Testing and Counseling, Role of Advanced Testing: Invasive Hemodynamics, Biopsies and CPET, Lifestyle Modification and Medical Management, Arrhythmia Evaluation and Management, Sudden Cardiac Death Risk Stratification and the Role of the ICD, Choice of Septal Reduction Therapies and Alcohol Septal Ablation, Surgical Myectomy: Sub-aortic, Mid-ventricular and Apical, Advanced Heart Failure Management and Transplantation, Novel Pharmacotherapy, and Unresolved Issues and Future Directions.

Interventional cardiology has evolved dramatically over the past decade, and this new edition addresses recent advances in coronary, structural, congenital, and endovascular arenas. New chapters cover mechanical circulatory support devices, including cardiogenic shock, intravascular lithotripsy and calcified lesion management, endovascular therapy for pulmonary embolism, and percutaneous therapies for tricuspid and pulmonary valve disease. This book features evidence‑based discussion on patient selection, vascular access, intervention principles, and optimal post‑procedure management, making it a practical reference guide for clinicians.Key Features:Incorporates treatment algorithms, charts, evidence‑based tables, and illustrationsProvides clinicians with concise, easily accessible guidance on the preprocedural, procedural, and postprocedural aspects of coronary, peripheral, venous, and structural heart interventions in general situations and various specific clinical settingsFeatures new chapters on the rapidly growing field of venous and pulmonary embolism interventions

This extensively updated textbook provides a comprehensive review of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), the most common genetic disorder of the heart characterized by dysfunctional contractility at the sarcomere level. The disease produces abnormal and often focal hypertrophy on a macroscopic level that further impairs cardiac performance and may lead to life-threatening arrhythmias. There have been vast changes in the understanding and management of the disease in recent years, in addition to increased awareness and prevalence. Accordingly, HCM Centers of Excellence have rapidly grown across the world that are in need of detailed information on the topic.  This edition provides a practical yet comprehensive approach to both diagnosis and management, establishing evidence-based best practice for all scenarios.Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy provides readers with key points and critical clinical pearls to assist them in managing patients. Every chapter has been updated to reflect the huge changes across the topic over the past 5 years. Each chapter is supplemented by a series of relevant instructional multiple choice questions and their solutions are included in the supplemental FlashCards. All aspects of treatment are covered – traditional and novel medications, pacemakers and defibrillators, and invasive septal reduction therapy (both surgical myectomy and alcohol septal ablation) – in addition to genetics, family screening, lifestyle concerns and athletic screening. Nuanced areas such as HCM in pregnancy or in the critical care unit, or the approach to HCM and hypertension, are also addressed.  The practical approach has been reinforced with an expanded emphasis on creating a Center of Excellence, how to facilitate the multi-disciplinary approach, and on real-world case-based reviews and discussions.Written by experts across the globe, this is an essential textbook for cardiology professionals from trainee to board-certified physician, including important information for interventional cardiologists, cardiac surgeons, cardiac imagers, critical care physicians, sports medicine physicians, genetic counsellors and electrophysiologists.
