商品簡介
Hanna and Glancy (cardiology, Louisiana State U., New Orleans) provide cardiologists, cardiology fellows, intensive care physicians, anesthesiologists, and catheterization laboratory personnel and nurses with a manual on waveforms and tracings seen in various disease states and the pathophysiology behind those findings. They explain cardiovascular hemodynamics using many illustrations and self-assessment problems and address pitfalls in the hemodynamic assessment of valvular diseases, constrictive pericarditis, tamponade, pulmonary hypertension, shunt pathology, coronary disease, and right and left ventricular failure. They end with a section of case-based and tracing-based self-assessment problems to help readers learn to identify disease states and waveform subtleties from single tracings or case studies.
