Synopsis
The New Edition of this popular resource continues to be an indispensable, clinical reference. It integrates the basics of cardiovascular therapeutics with practical applications for use. Readers will find in-depth discussions on all major cardiovascular problems…the latest treatment options…and the adverse effects and interactions of the most commonly used cardiovascular drugs. The 6th Edition features the most current guidelines from the American College of Cardiology (ACC) on cardiac arrest as well as drug tables organized by class. Critiques of guidelines and drug therapy recommendations allow the practitioner to use an evidence-based approach to the best drug available for a given clinical situation.
