Sudden death is probably the greatest challenge facing modem
cardiology today. This is mainly due to the impact of its brusque
appearance and the socioeconomic implications. The incidende is
presently decreasing somewhat, mainly due to the decline in new
cases of ischemic heart disease on one hand, and to better preven
tion in risk patients on the other. Nevertheless, the figures are
still high and represent over 300.000 patients per year in the
United States alone. This book is an updating of the problem of
sudden death from a multifactorial standpoint. It includes not only
electrophysiologic data but also covers aspects ranging from
epidemiology to prevention. Risk markers and triggering mechanicsms
of sudden death are reviewed, with special emphasis on the role of
electrical instability, ischemia and depressed ventricular
function. The book includes the contributions from many experts,
often pioneers in their respective fields. It is our hope that the
book serves as an Updating for those cardiologist who are not
specialized in these subjects, but may also be of interest to the
expert. We wish to express our sincerest gratitude to the authors
for sending in their work so promptly, and also Kluwer Academic
Publishers for their exactitude and perfection in this edition."
