The Nuts and Bolts of Cardiac Pacing (eBook)

While there are many excellent pacing and defibrillation books,
they are nearly all written by physicians for physicians. The
second edition of the successful The Nuts and Bolts of Cardiac
Pacing has been thoroughly updated, reflecting the new
challenges, issues, and devices that clinicians deal with. Written
specifically for non-cardiologists in a lively, intelligent and
easy to follow style, it emphasizes real-life clinical practice and
practical tips, including illustrations from actual clinical
settings. Each chapter concludes with a checklist of key points
from each subject ("Nuts and Bolts").

New features to the second edition include:

* updated terminology and images reflecting new software
developments

* information on new innovations and advanced features, such as
ventricular intrinsic preference and AF suppression

* new features on the automatic atrial capture test and follow-up
features

* new chapter covering clinical studies on the possible dangers
of excessive RV pacing

Building layer by layer on the fundamental principles and
concluding with advanced concepts, The Nuts and Bolts of Cardiac
Pacing is intended for a novice to appreciate overall concepts
and for a seasoned veteran to turn to answer a specific
question.

This book offers practical, reliable and objective information
on cardiac devices - it's easy to pick up, find what you
need, and put down.
