Clinical Guide to Primary Angioplasty (eBook, ePUB)

Redaktion: Brecker, Stephen; Rothman, Martin

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Primary angioplasty is a life-saving, minimally invasive emergency procedure increasingly used in the treatment of acute myocardial infarction. As the procedure further proves its effectiveness, it is imperative that all cardiologists have a comprehensive understanding of the major issues surrounding this technique. This easy-to-use, clinically focused text is an essential reference exploring the vital concepts. Topics include epidemiology and historical perspectives, stenting vs. balloon angioplasty, systems of care for primary percutaneous coronary intervention, and the role of surgery in acute myocardial infarction.
