Cardiac Clinical Questions answers more than one-hundred of the clinical cardiology questions most frequently asked of the authors during consultation. The book simulates the consultation process: consult question →data collection→ synthesis of data → solution.
After clarifying the key concept, the critical data obtained includes the history, physical exam, EKG, imaging, and lab(s). A point-of-care solution is derived by inserting this data into simple logical equations. In addition, contraindications, discussions using evidence-based medicine, and references are included.
Cardiac Clinical Questions is Divided Into Nine Sections:
- Diagnostic Testing
- ACS
- Valvular Diseases
- Cardiac Diseases
- Examination
- Arrhythmias
- Congenital Heart Diseases
- Heart Failure and Hypertension
- Medications
Cardiac Clinical Questions is the single-best resource for quickly translating the most current knowledge into practical, diagnostic real-time solutions.
