Synopsis

Along with a strong focus on patient care the new Hurst's THE HEART includes a new look and organization. Each chapter has been systematically overhauled with an emphasis on streamlining the content for a focused presentation of the LATEST THERAPEUTIC STRATEGIES and the EVIDENCE-BASED DATA that support them. CLINICAL GUIDELINES are included to equip you with the critical information for optimal patient care in an increasingly time-pressured, cost/benefit environment.

WHAT'S NEW in the Tenth Edition

  • Expanded coverage of molecular biology of blood vessels and myocardium
  • More information on testing modalities--especially those related to nuclear myocardial perfusion imaging, MRI and PET
  • New emphasis on managing heart failure, including interventional techniques and new drug therapy strategies
  • Additional chapters on the biology of coronary heart disease
  • Expanded sections related to prevention, diagnosis and treatment
  • More emphasis on integrating the science of cardiac care with treatment
  • Easy-to-reference, evidence-based practice guidelines where appropriate
  • New insight on the human genome project and its implications
  • Techniques for clinical evaluation of the patient
  • Late-breaking reports on clinical trials
  • Heart disease in diabetics
  • New sections on nonsurgical interventions in cardial and peripheral vascular disease.
