Book excerpt: This book is open access under a CC BY 4.0 license. This quick-reference handbook offers a concise and practical review of key aspects of the treatment of ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) in the era of primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI). In the context of STEMI, PPCI is the preferred mode of emergency revascularization. Access to PPCI is rapidly increasing and is now routinely practiced in both general and specialist hospitals and there has been a recent emphasis on developing STEMI networks to enhance and expedite the referral pathway. This coupled with concurrent developments to enhance the safety and efficacy of the PPCI procedure has heralded an era where STEMI interventions are increasingly considered an important subspecialty within interventional cardiology. Written by leading cardiologists who have been instrumental in the adoption of PPCI in their respective institutions, the book provides junior and senior cardiologists alike with insightful and thought-provoking tips and tricks to enhance the success of PPCI procedures, which may in turn translate into direct improvements in outcomes. The book is also relevant for healthcare providers and emergency department physicians.

Download or read book Heart Bypass: My Angina to Recovery Experience written by Shaw Kirk Adams and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2014-01-02 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If you have a heart bypass or heart valve procedure in your future you should find this book fascinating. While there are a lot of books that explain what a heart bypass is, there are not too many that will explain what you feel or what the overall the experience is like from the patient's perspective. That is best to hear from a patient who has gone through it.If you have a loved one who will be undergoing heart surgery you will want to read this book because the information will be valuable and helpful to understanding what your family member is going through.If neither of those situations applies you may want to exit here; but before you go, here is a takeaway: heart disease happens. You may want to read this just to gain an appreciation of the importance of getting to your doctor or to the hospital if you have any type of symptom that could even possibly be heart related.Yes, you have heard immediate treatment could save your life but here is a message that might do a better job of gaining the attention of health fanatics. A heart attack can cause severe un-repairable damage to heart tissue. Getting treatment early enough may temporarily stabilize your condition and prevent long-term affliction.When you become ill, not just with an artery blockage but with any kind of traumatic illness or accident; your perspective changes. The details of that condition and treatment grow in focus, while everything else shrinks in focus. You have most likely known people that talk about their procedures weeks, months, and even years later. This should be an indication to you of how your mentality can shift from an external perspective to a totally internal driven perspective.When you are feeble you are vulnerable; no exceptions. It is very hard for a person who has always been healthy to understand what it's like to be weak and dependent on others. If you can let go of your mindset for just a minute though, and think ahead about your circumstances should you become seriously ill, you might want to rethink some of the decisions you have made up to now.You should be aware that I am not a medical professional. I was a patient who had a bypass operation and experienced many things I had never experienced before; nor ever expected to experience. It wasn't pleasant but I made it. Would it have been any easier if I had read a book like this before my surgery? I think so, because, I would have understood that:• There is a difference between pain and weakness / fragility.• The discomfort is short-term for most people.• A devastated body can recover given sufficient time.Sean Kirk Adams

Download or read book Technical Aspects of Modern Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery written by Mario Gaudino and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2020-11-08 with total page 379 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Coronary surgery encompasses two thirds of all adult cardiac surgery cases. With the endless pursuit of better outcomes, modern coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) has become technically more complex in ways that are well beyond the training of the average cardiac surgeon. The old concept of "one-technique-fits-all" has been abandoned in favour of a specialized approach tailored to the individual patient. In fact, in recent years, there is a growing movement towards establishing coronary surgery as a super-specialization of cardiac surgery. Technical Aspects of Modern Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery aims to expand on both the basics and complexities of the technical aspects of coronary surgery. It serves as an up to date resource that illustrates and details the advancement and techniques in this field which may soon become a separate super-specialty. With a particular emphasis on illustrations, the book will be an essential reference book for both established surgeons that have no experience in advanced CABG, and the new generation of CABG surgeons. - A complete and concise resource on all aspects of coronary surgery - In-depth illustrative review of various coronary techniques - Covers both current recommendations and well-established practices in the field

Book excerpt: This is the first textbook to focus on Aortopathy, a new clinical concept for a form of vasculopathy. The first section of the book starts from discussing general concept and history of Aortopathy, and then deals with its pathophysiology, manifestation, intrinsic factor, clinical implication, management and prevention. The second part closely looks at various disorders of the Aortopathy such as bicuspid aortic valve and coarctation of aorta. The book editors have published a lot of works on the topic and have been collecting relating data in the field of congenital heart disease for the past 20 years, thus present the book with confidence. The topic - an association of aortic pathophysiological abnormality, aortic dilation and aorto-left ventricular interaction - is getting more and more attention among cardiovascular physicians. This is the first book to refer for cardiologists, pediatric cardiologists, surgeons, ACHD specialists, etc. to acquire thorough knowledge on Aortopathy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Clinical studies show that cardiovascular intervention does not prevent heart attacks or prolong life in stable patients with coronary artery disease . . . so why are more than 1.5 million angioplasties and coronary bypass surgeries done annually in the United States alone? In The Great American Heart Hoax, esteemed cardiologist Michael Ozner, author of The Miami Mediterranean Diet, reveals groundbreaking truths about what actually helps prevent and reverse heart disease and what isn't worth the money or risk. Discover disturbing realities from a cardiologist about the billion-dollar cardiovascular intervention industry. While a minority of patients may benefit from surgery, Ozner uncovers that the majority can employ much simpler methods, such as diet, exercise and medical therapy, to achieve better results—without stents or surgery. Most important, The Great American Heart Hoax provides a 10-step program to improve your heart health and reduce your risk of heart disease.
