Practical Handbook of Advanced Interventional Cardiology

Step-by-step walkthroughs for challenging interventional scenarios faced by practicing interventional cardiologists

In the newly revised sixth edition of Practical Handbook of Advanced Interventional Cardiology: Tips and Tricks, a team of distinguished interventional cardiologists delivers an up-to-date exploration of innovative and provocative solutions to a wide range of coronary, valvular, peripheral and neurological percutaneous procedures. Drawing from the expertise of over 50 international experts, this best-selling guide helps interventional cardiologists perform procedures in a timely manner using less equipment and with fewer complications. The updated contents include discussions of new devices, valve procedures, as well as new chapters on dynamic coronary angiography, complex and high-risk interventions (CHIP, electrosurgery, intravascular lithotripsy, renal denervation and artificial intelligence analysis).

The authors provide clear and easy-to-follow guidance for interventional cardiologists at every level of skill and experience. They list practical tips and tricks for difficult scenarios and complications, as well as key interventional procedures and techniques.

Readers will also find:

• Full-color clinical images /illustrations and short videos
• A simple grading system describing the complexity and priority ranking of every strategic and tactical action―unique to this handbook
• Practical discussions of the latest procedures, techniques and interventions used in difficult situations with limited or inconsistent evidence

Perfect for interventional cardiologists interested in clear and specific guidance for frequently encountered and challenging interventional scenarios, Practical Handbook of Advanced Interventional Cardiology will benefit staff in cardiac laboratories.
