Accounting for more than 40% of all heart failure problems,
diastolic heart failure is a complex and often difficult diagnosis
with rapidly evolving diagnostic management protocols. Diastology:
Clinical Approach to Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection
Fraction, 2nd Edition, brings you up to date and equips you to
successfully diagnose and manage even the most challenging
incidences of diastolic heart failure and their comorbidities. It
incorporates the latest guidelines for the diagnostic evaluation of
the patient with suspected or known diastolic dysfunction, provides
a comprehensive review of clinical conditions associated with heart
failure with preserved ejection fraction, and describes the
complementary role of imaging modalities and novel therapeutic
approaches. Keeps you current with recent extensive changes in the
understanding of the mechanisms of diastolic heart failure with
preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) that have resulted in dramatic
changes in treatment guidelines. Covers the latest molecular,
genetic, and cellular mechanisms behind diastolic heart failure as
a basis for the latest clinical approaches, diagnosis, and
treatment of common and uncommon pathological conditions such as
hypertensive heart disease, cardiomyopathies, arterial and valvular
diseases, pericardial diseases, congenital heart disease, diabetes
mellitus, and metabolic syndrome. Features 50 video cases, new key
summary points, new multiple-choice review questions, and six new
chapters: Evaluation of Diastolic Function by Radionuclide
Techniques; Diastology Stress Test; ASE/EACVI Diastolic Guidelines;
Valve Disease; Perioperative Assessment of Diastolic Dysfunction;
and Pulmonary Hypertension. Reviews new techniques and indices for
assessing diastolic function, such as 3D echo, strain rate imaging,
late gadolinium enhancement and T1-mapping by CMR, and novel
nuclear scintigraphic methods - as well as the traditional indices
of LV filling, LA function, and tissue Doppler indices. Covers
emerging topics such as the role of neurohormones, global and
regional systolic function of the left ventricle, chronotopic
incompetence and pacing, aging, perioperative assessment, and more.
Presents information in a quick-retrieval format, covering
Epidemiology, Pathophysiology, Diagnostic Evaluation, Differential
Diagnosis, Treatment, and Future Directions. Helps you learn
efficiently and prepare for self-assessment with key summaries and
multiple-choice questions and answers for each chapter. 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.
