The book features 674 images and illustrations including original, colour ECGs which have been enlarged and are accompanied by detailed explanations.

Employs a case-based approach with a consistent chapter format to provide a clear, practical review of each topic. Each case-based chapter includes an Overview of the procedure and disease process, Indications and Contraindications of the procedure, standard Equipment used, a review of relevant Anatomy, detailed Procedural Steps, as well as Treatment Alternatives and common Complications. Reviews the skillful use of X-rays, CT, ultrasound, MRI, and other imaging methods to direct interventional procedures. Uses brief, bulleted text and more than 350 images to help you quickly grasp the fundamental information you need to know. Includes Take Home Points, Clinical Applications, Key Facts, Key Definitions, and Literature Reviews. Features case-based chapters on vascular and non-vascular procedures, as well as Grand Rounds Topics such as anatomy, surgery, interventional oncology, pediatrics, and more. Offers quick review and instruction for medical students, residents, fellows, and related medical professionals working in the IR area, such as nurse practitioners and physician assistants.

The 4th Edition of this resource focuses on the value and limitations of the electrocardiogram, the differential diagnosis of the electrocardiographic findings, and their correlation with the clinical and anatomic data.

Offers a guide for a complete understanding of the disease and conditions most frequently revealed in ECGs recorded in the acute, critical, and emergency care settings Electrocardiogram in Clinical Medicine offers an authoritative guide to ECG interpretation that contains a focus and perspective from each of the three primary areas of medical care: acute care, critical care and emergency care. It can be used as a companion with the book ECGs for the Emergency Physician I & II (by Mattu and Brady) or as a stand-alone text. These three books can be described as a cumulative EGG reference for the medical provider who uses the electrocardiogram on a regular basis. Electrocardiogram in Clinical Medicine includes sections on all primary areas of ECG interpretation and application as well as sections that highlight use, devices and strategies. The medical content covers acute coronary syndromes and all related issues, other diseases of the myocardium, morphologic syndromes, toxicology and paediatrics; dysrhythmias will also be covered in detail. This important resource: • Goes beyond pattern recognition in ECGs to offer a real understanding of the clinical syndromes evidenced in ECGs and implications for treatment • Covers the indications, advantages and pitfalls of the use of ECGs for diagnosis in all acute care settings, from EMS to ED to Critical Care • Examines the ECG in toxic, metabolic and environmental presentations; critical information for acute care clinicians who need to be able to differentiate ODs, poisoning and other environmental causes from MI or other cardiac events • Facilitates clinical decision-making Written for practicing ER, general medicine, family practice, hospitalist and ICU physicians and medical students, Electrocardiogram in Clinical Medicine is an important book for the accurate interpretation of EGG results.

Clinical Electrocardiography: A Simplified Approach, 7th Edition goes beyond the simple waveform analysis to present ECGs as they are used in hospital wards, outpatient clinics, emergency departments, and intensive care units—where the recognition of normal and abnormal patterns is only the starting point in patient care. With Dr. Goldberger's renowned ability to make complex material easy to understand, you'll quickly grasp the fundamentals of ECG interpretation and analysis. Features indispensable self-tests on interpreting and using ECGs to formulate diagnoses. Presents complex information in a manner that is easy to understand. Represents practical, comprehensive coverage ideal for the beginning student as much as for the practicing clinician. Employs a unique approach that centers on the critical thinking skills required in clinical practice. Provides new chapters on "problem" rhythms—those that are commonly seen in practice and difficult to recognize. Mirrors the true-to-life clinical appearance of ECGs with new and updated images incorporated throughout. Reflects the latest knowledge in the field through clinical pearls and review points at the end of each chapter. Reviews the diagnostic tips on key rhythm disorders that are relevant to today's clinical practice. Includes new ECG differential diagnoses on laminated cards for easy reference.
