Acute Coronary Syndrome covers the spectrum of clinical conditions
ranging from unstable angina to non-ST elevation myocardial
infarction and ST elevation myocardial infarction. These
life-threatening disorders are a major cause of emergency medical
care, hospitalization and mortality. "Management of Acute Coronary
Syndromes" is designed to provide busy clinicians with a
comprehensive guide to the investigation, diagnosis and treatment
of these syndromes. It encompasses the latest technologies,
including the use of biomarkers and non-invasive imaging
procedures.
For each condition, the reader is taken through all of the
therapeutic options available; in each case the indications and
contraindications are evaluated in the light of the latest clinical
trials. Potential complications are dealt with in a similar
fashion, permitting the reader to anticipate and manage problems as
they arise. The authors also present evidence-based recommendations
for long-term care of at-risk patients, encompassing pharmacologic
therapies and lifestyle management.
The book concludes with a comprehensive collection of appendices
that include treatment algorithms, risk scores and a summary of the
latest management guidelines.
"Management of Acute Coronary Syndromes" is the most up to date
and comprehensive evidence-based guide to managing acute coronary
syndromes, in a compact and usable format. It will be of interest
to busy specialist physicians in cardiovascular medicine, cardiac
and vascular surgery, and critical care, as well as primary care
physicians and hospitalists who care for patients with these
syndromes.
