Publisher's Synopsis
"Mayo Clinic Practice of Cardiology" is a detailed, clinically oriented and highly practical reference on all disorders of the cardiovascular system. The main emphasis of the new edition is on clinical practice in cardiology with each of the chapters on disease management written by physicians who themselves care for cardiac problems every day. This book was created solely out of the Mayo Clinic, one of the best institutions in the world, and features a cohesive approach to the subject matter. The coverage of preventative cardiology is comprehensive and sections on cardiac rehabilitation and cardiovascular health enhancement give the reader detailed information on an important area of critical care. Reorganized contents give more attention to the most important topics such as coronary artery disease, hypertension and myocardial disease with emphasis on the disease entities. Many tables, boxes and flow diagrams add to the quick and easy retrieval of information and improve its use as a teaching tool. Extensive appendices and printed endsheets ensure quick and easy reference.
