Cardiac Arrhythmias: Interpretation, Diagnosis and Treatment

The classic primer for treating arrhythmias safely and effectively―updated with new technologies, approaches, and guidelines

For  25 years, Cardiac Arrhythmias has been the go-to guide for  non-specialists seeking a solid foundation in electrophysiology and its  relationship to treating arrhythmias. Now, the pioneer and father of  modern clinical electrophysiology, Eric Prystowsky, teams up with  globally renowned experts to bring this landmark guide fully up to date.

In  clear, engaging language, Cardiac Arrhythmias delivers everything you  need to know about the practical application of electrophysiological  principles. It covers basic electrocardiographic observations and  clinical electrophysiologic correlates, including in-depth discussions  of cardiac conduction, and provides a close look at specific  arrhythmias, with diagnostic information from patient history, physical  examination, lab tests, and therapy approaches. Subsequent chapters  explore common clinical presentations of arrhythmias, diagnostic  techniques, and therapeutic modalities. 

Whether you’re an internist, family  practitioner, physician assistant, or nurse practitioner, the integrated  approach of Cardiac Arrhythmias will help you deliver the  highest-quality care to every patient.
