β¦ Synopsis
Cardiac Pacing has undergone a rapid development in technique and application in recent years. This book aims to present fundamental knowledge about current findings in a concise and clear manner. Basic aspects are explained, such as defining indications, setting up diagnostic and therapeutic procedures, and caring for patients with specific focus on the most common questions patients ask of general practitioners. A vast amount of illustrative material is combined with very instructive text. This book addresses the daily practice of both internists and specialists in cardiology, while also serving as an excellent desk reference.
