Description
Fully revised and updated for its Fourth Edition, Dr. Josephson's classic text provides a thorough understanding of the mechanisms of cardiac arrhythmias and the therapeutic interventions used to treat arrhythmias. The book details the electrophysiologic methodology required to define the mechanism and site of origin of arrhythmias so that safe and effective therapy can be chosen. Close attention is given to the mechanisms, clinical implications, and limitations of current therapeutic interventions, including drugs, implantable devices, and catheter and surgical ablation. More than 1,100 illustrations clarify the concepts and techniques presented in the text. This edition has a new full-color design.
This fully updated, landmark reference brings you the latest guidance to expertly assess, map, and treat cardiac rhythm disturbances. A leading expert reviews current findings on the mechanisms of arrhythmias and offers practical insights to help you select and safely implement state-of-the-art interventions. Includes bonus online content.
Confidently diagnose and treat intraventricular and atrioventricular conduction disturbances, including chronic right bundle branch block, left bundle branch block, Wenckebach block, and supernormal conduction.
Expertly define the mechanisms and sites of origin of supraventricular tachycardias, recurrent ventricular tachycardias, and premature depolarizations.
Implement recommended therapies for atrial flutter and fibrillation, ectopic rhythms, sinus node dysfunction, and preexcitation syndromes.
Be current on the pros and cons of specific antiarrhythmic approaches, including antitachycardia pacing techniques, pharmacologic agents, electrical therapies, and catheter and surgical ablation. |
