From anatomy and diagnostic criteria through specific mapping and
ablation techniques, Catheter Ablation of Cardiac Arrhythmias, 4th
Edition, covers all you need to know in this fast-changing field. Ideal
for practitioners who need a comprehensive, user-friendly ablation
text for the electrophysiology lab or office setting, this
authoritative reference offers quick access to practical content,
using detailed tables and high-quality images to help you apply what you
learn in your practice.
Incorporates recent, exciting developments in the field, including
new mapping, imaging, and catheter technologies and ablation techniques.
Contains new chapters on Pulmonary Vein Isolation by a Cryoballoon
Catheter; Substrate-Based Ablation for Ventricular Tachycardia; and
Ablation of Genetically Triggered Ventricular Tachycardia/Fibrillation.
Offers new and expanded coverage of difficult cases VT ablation,
including VT storm and use of hemodynamic support during ablation; new
techniques for ablation of persistent and long-lasting persistent atrial
fibrillation; cryoballoon-based pulmonary vein isolation to treat atrial
fibrillation; and more.
Offers expert guidance on atrial tachycardia and flutter, atrial
fibrillation, atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia, tachycardias
related to accessory atrioventricular connections, ventricular
tachycardia, transseptal catheterization techniques, ablation for
pediatric patients, and patient safety and complications.
Helps you master each approach with exceptional visual guidance from
nearly 300 new illustrations and figures, including many new ECGs,
intracardiac recordings, as well as 3D mapping, ultrasound and
fluoroscopic images.
Includes numerous tables that provide quick access to key points,
arrhythmia mechanisms, diagnostic criteria, target sites for ablation,
use of special equipment, complications, and troubleshooting problems
and their solutions.
Provides access to 45 video clips (18 are new!) including newer
techniques for transseptal access to the left atrium, expanded use of
intracardiac ultrasound, techniques of pericardial access, and many
more.
Enhanced eBook version included with purchase. Your enhanced eBook
allows you to access all of the text, figures, and references from the
book on a variety of devices.
