关于此电子书
Extensively rewritten with updated references to incorporate the latest concepts, guidelines, protocols, and medications used in cardiac surgical practice, this classic text retains the pragmatic features that have made it the gold standard reference that clinicians have used worldwide for the past 30 years.
Highlights include:
- Full coverage of cardiac surgical diseases, including pathophysiology, indications for surgery per guidelines, and figures of operative procedures and diagnostic techniques, with a panoply of examples
- Chronologic evaluation of patients from preoperative assessment to intraoperative considerations to postoperative care for each procedure
- Extensive chapters discussing organ system management in the ICU, followed by a discussion of later postoperative management and problems
- Incorporation of newer techniques (TAVR, Mitraclip, etc.) within the chronologic format
- Easy access to information using an outline format, markers on the free edges to identify chapters, synopsis pages at the beginning of each chapter, and a comprehensive index to provide easy referencing within the text
- Updated references throughout that are available from on-line resources
- 21 appendices summarizing order sheets, protocols, commonly used drug doses, body mass index, and other important information
Praise for the fifth edition:
"Surgeons are frequently asked to recommend a text that can be used to guide the care of their patients. This comprehensive text is the standard by which any other text should be judged."
—Critical Care Medicine
"It remains a classic and a must have for anyone involved in cardiac surgery."
